Vi drops her guard to tackle Teddy, yet he reacts quickly and spins out of the way in pure boxing footwork. He opens his eyes and glares, "So, it's a no?" He brings up his gloves, "Then let's do this," he angrily replies through gritted teeth. Many of the close spectators seem surprised, wondering how he knew she attacked with his eyes closed.
The crowd begins cheering even louder. Vi swears that she can hear Coach Driver screaming from somewhere in the crowd, but can't make out what he's trying to say. She feels the hairs on her arms stand up as she feels static electricity build up around her.
OOC: He looks serious now. Actions? Questions? <-- Ask in PM

Vi 14
Teddy 5
Her eyes focus as her tight-lipped anger projects her next lunge at Teddy. He deftly hops out of the way as he shouts, "I said STOP!" as she swiftly throws a spinning right hook that audibly crackles against his raised left bicep, glaring angrily from behind his blocking arm. A loud snap rings out as he winces from a visible blister forming where she'd struck. He takes a deep breath, bring his other arm up and starts his boxing footwork, realizing that Vi isn't like his easy opponents.
The crowd begins cheering louder.

OOC:
Teddy 20
Vi 12
The crowd begins cheering louder as Vi tries to follow up with more punches. Unfortunately, Teddy's footwork proves to work in his favor as he successfully stuffs Vi's next few punches and weaves past the last one. Suddenly, as he switches up his footwork, he lands a solid right hook into Vi's solar plexus, knocking the wind completely out of her. (Oof -12 SDC) Through sheer mental will, she doesn't fall down, but can't breathe. She can't remember ever being hit so hard.
Teddy doesn't follow up, instead, he stares at his smoldering glove. "What the hell, Vi? What is this?" as he observes the steam rising from the glove. The closest members of the crowd also notice, as does Marshal.
"How's that even happen?" Marshal mutters only loud enough for Teddy and Vi.

She uses this distraction to take a step back as she struggles to catch her breath, but her diaphragm refuses to cooperate, causing her to choke trying to breathe. Regardless, ignoring Marshal and the crowd, Vi motions for Teddy to come at her.
He notices and laughs, "You're kidding, right?" She notices his glove is blackened with a burn through the padding near the knuckle. His headgear also shows some blistering of the padding where she'd struck him earlier. Marshal has backed against the ropes as the crowd's noise reduces to concerned murmurs.
Violet finally catches her breath, unable to hide the panic and pain that it'd caused. She's never been struck so hard. Teddy begins paying more attention to the crowd as a few of the spectators have now jumped into the ring. One of them shouts, "She's not human! She's dangerous!"
Teddy promptly clotheslines the man over the ropes back into the crowd, "You leave her ALONE!" He looks back at her, "This isn't good. We have to get you out of here. We can fight later." Genuine concern radiates from his face, as well as fear. Something Teddy rarely expresses. Marshal is frozen in place, unsure of what to do when Teddy quickly shouts, "Loverboy! If you truly care about her, get her out of here!" Marshal is unable to move.
Others start climbing over the ropes; more focused on Teddy, "Deebee lover! We knew there was something wrong with you!" As Teddy bops another man over the head, also knocking them back into the crowd, Vi finally regains her composure.

During her rage, the crowd catches Vi's attention, "What the fuck is this?" she shouts as she hears what they're yelling at Teddy. She tries to find an exit, but the stage is surrounded as more flood into the ring. Teddy is swiftly overtaken and disappears under several burly men, who proceed to pin him down and start punching him. Vi feels someone take her hand as Marshal stops her from helping Ted, pushing her toward whoever is pulling her.
She turns to Coach Driver and Deputy Stryker paving a way through the crowd. Stryker gives her hand a reaffirming squeeze as he shouts out, "We're taking her to justice!" while he pumps his free fist in the air. The crowd closes in behind them, following her outside.
Coach Driver keeps shouting out, "Make room! Make room! We've got this handled."
Marshal's eyes begin to well up with tears as he and Vi can both hear Teddy cry out for help.
