The sudden push against her catches her by surprise and she's forced to concede this part of the bout to him. She turns her face so she doesn't fall onto her hair pin and lands hard on her back with a loud curse as she exhales all the breath in her lungs. The rocks of the arena floor scratch at her face, but the real problem is that she has to release him. With the wind knocked out of her, she can't even push him off right away to get back up. She struggles uselessly, but she gets the sense she's going to have to resort to desperate measures shortly.
