The others paused, caught off guard by her ferocity. But their numbers and the prospect of a big payday pushed them forward.

Without hesitation, they lunged at Cherise, but she moved with blinding speed. In a flash, one assailant was thrown back, and the other two were knocked out with precise hits.
