Chapter 2: Building Tension
Wonder Woman is excited to finally get her hands on her tiny tormentor. At the bell ww rushes out but tt dodges her clumsy swings. TT leads ww on a merry chase, at one point she runs between ww legs, ww bends over to see where she went, tt bops ww on the nose. as ww stands up tt pulls ww shorts down below her knees. ww tries to catch tt and trips over her shorts. as she gets to her knees tt meets her eye to eye and pummles ww with a flurry of blows. ww is too stunned to defend herself. just as ww is about to go down, she reaches up and grabs the ropes, pulling herself up. tt dances around her, but ww's eyes are filled with determination. ww is not going to let this little terror get the better of her.
The crowd is on the edge of their seats, the tension in the air palpable. the gym is a sea of red, blue and gold, as ww's amazonian fans cheer her on. At the sound of the bell Wonder Woman staggers back to her corner glad for a chance to sit and get rid of those shorts. As she rests, waiting for the next round, TT has vanished from her corner. Unseen by WW, TT has snuck out of the ring and circled from her corner to Wonder Womans. While WW rests TT reaches up and ties WW bootlaces together.(this must be a comedy after all)

With a grunt, Wonder Woman forces her leaden gloves upward, straining against their weight. But the momentum proves too much, and her right glove smashes into her face, sending her reeling backward. She lands hard on the mat, stars exploding in her vision, as the crowd groans in sympathy and amusement.

The crowd roars in approval, the sound echoing through the gym. Tiny Terror just laughs, a sound that's both triumphant and mocking.
"Big words from someone who can't even keep their gloves on," she taunts, dancing back to her corner.

"I'm done playing by your rules, Tiny Terror," she growls, her voice echoing through the gym. The crowd roars in approval, the atmosphere electric.
Tiny Terror, however, is unfazed. She laughs, a sound that's both triumphant and mocking, as she taunts, "You're all bark and no bite, Wonder Woman. I've been playing with you like a cat with a mouse." Her eyes gleam with mischief, her grin wide and wicked. "But don't worry," she continues, "I'll give you another chance. I'll even make it fair. No gloves, no rules.
Wonder Woman, her eyes ablaze with determination, lunges at Tiny Terror, who dances out of reach with a laugh.

Tiny Terror, meanwhile, dances around her, her laughter ringing out like a bell.
"You're like a bull in a china shop, Wonder Woman!" she taunts, unable to resist the opportunity to deliver a stinging spank to her helpless opponent. WW yelps in surprise, her eyes widening as she finally manages to untangle herself from the ropes. The crowd roars with laughter, the atmosphere electric with the absurdity of the scene.
