Check. It was true. She didn’t often make the first move on many reasons, she wasn’t combat experienced, far from it and to that, books were only the things she had to guide her. With that in mind, she could’ve easily made a way to counter, to defend, which was already an ideal in mind. She’ll admit. She wasn’t the fastest, strongest, or skilled, but she was smart and knew how to react to things.. However, due to her lack of experience and skills, it required sacrifice and that was something her whole bloodline was known for. To the very start of this engagement, the start of this ordeal, she had been playing a simple guessing game with herself, ready to play the risk of what could happen.. Was it ninjutsu or Taijutsu? That was her question. Considering her body’s damage before the battle and the amount of ability she lacks in physical engagement, she made the risk. She had utilized water replacement. Or rather. She channeled decent amounts of chakra through her body to be instantly ready to convert into water and to that. He must’ve been narrow, truly. As she didn’t expect what she got. To his hand seal, his flicker and disappearance. That signaled the usage of water replacement, as she had prepared it before his action and now was the fun; instantaneous usage. Reaction wise, Munashi was decent and speed wise, she was quite capable of finessing through a few things. So. The moment he appeared on her left, four things would’ve happened in this place. Her left hand with the fastest speed she could react with, which was nothing short of a blur cutting through milliseconds, considering her speed and distance, her hand would be aimed to connect with his shirt collar and grab with the tightest and strongest strength she had, fitting this exchange right as Hayato’s right hand went to connect to her jaw, striking against it, but not to the results he wanted—Deforming, the strike against her face would reveal water that curled against the force; resulting in no damage. By the time his punch would’ve attempted to retract. She had already a plan. Simultaneously, with her left hand’s movement, her right hand would’ve followed up to his neck, the blade of the kunai being behind his neck and her wrist against the right side of his neck, making it quite impossible to stop that hand, the kunai being a hair’s distance, hardly a fewer milliseconds behind, however, his hand would’ve landed first. Her speed may have been no match, this was true, but, distance, concentration and exchange allowed her to react to such simple physical moment. Even if he would’ve attempted to stop her hand from grabbing his shirt, it wouldn’t change the fact attempted to punch her and she used that to her advantage to fill the void. In other terms, he would’ve know her physical strength nor the fact she wanted to grab him meaning, his left hand would’ve found itself grabbing the first strike for her right hand to follow up. This wasn’t a simple inexperience of combat and not something everyone did, as most avoid all contact. She’d admit. She knew just enough to make a kunai work and any jutsu too, along with enough brain smarts to make an idea for this. And considering their conversation earlier, he wouldn’t expect her to be willing to trade physical blows. Meaning. She believes she may have won. In the lesser second of his hand retracting, her face would’ve reformed, unharmed and she’d have the most stoic facial expression this world has ever seen.
