The fight lasting this long proved a two things: One- Jen is more badass than most would think from common encounters, Two- more drastic measures would need to be used to win. Veronica was now going to go to the edge of what she could tolerate herself doing. Veronica now would use gamma rays to heat Her feet and also redirected the heat Jen was emitting back into her body. "I'm sorry." She said as she did this.

Gah! Ow! Still hurts, but it is the same move as before, more or less. Veronica compressed her leg and kicked with as much force as she could muster, launching Jen with the momentum. She then followed through with the roll and got back onto her feet, now visibly not as stable. The brief respite allowed for some more healing.

Veronica had little time to react but was in a good position. She brought her left arm down to block or at least slow the attack, and put a large amount of force into a heavy elbow on her attackers head.

Veronica matched Jen as they circled, a new plan would be necessary. Circling like a predator...predators look for weakness...but attacking a strong point could prove fatal... Veronica slowly approached Jen with a fake limp in her back leg.

This level of tenacity was impressive. Veronica could not waste precious breath on saying something back. She to readied for the next bout, this time in an offensive position.

She may suspect something...but this? Ooooh no. Sorry Jen, but this may hurt... Veronica focused her power into using her levitation ability at it's maximum lift...on Jen. Lifting only the back part of her feet so she had no control, no balance, and could only fall forward. Veronica made sure her hands were covered and delivered a hard upper cut as she was falling into it.

Some light testing just after a major tussle? Common, yet effective. Veronica blocked the attacks with ease. Then an idea popped into her head. Veronica inched forward, just within 5 meters of Her, in a full defensive position and waited for an attack.

The reason this fight is lasting so long is a combination of: neither of them are psychotic, neither are using weapons (ie- flame swords), and Veronica has never had to use more than some disabling moves for escape...aside from the over the top lethal attack that she would not do in this situation. So the battle is evenly matched for the most part.

Even with the adrenaline coursing through her, Veronica was starting to get tired. "You to." She would have said more but could not waste breath on banter. She began to heal back to full as she waited for the other to attack.
