Description Just as Ororo went to grab the bio-pulse taser, the officer pushed her off his shoulder, causing her to fumble and drop it.  Still, she didn't miss a beat.   She straightened her torso so that she landed sitting upright.     Bracing herself with outstretched arms pushing against each side of the interior, her right foot kicked hard and low.   The blow was avoided as the officer nimbly blocked it with his knee.   He smirked at her, only to be caught off-guard when Ororo twisted her body to the left, her left foot snaking out and catching him in the side.   With a grunt he staggered back.  Ororo leapt up to pounce on him.   The effects of the taser, while subsiding, had not completely dissipated.  Her movements lacked the speed and grace she was accustomed to after years of training.   There were many times in which her mutant abilities were best concealed.  To be ready for such circumstances Ororo had become a formidable fighter in her own right sans powers.  But now she was twice disadvantaged with no powers and a groggy bearing at best.  A fist caught her directly under her chin, then another from the opposite side.  Blood sprayed from her mouth.  The two uppercuts left her completely disoriented and barely conscious.  It took all her will to remain standing, if her wobbly stance could be called such.  Her arms drooped uselessly at her sides.   Her head felt as if it were a lead weight perched precariously on the bobbing spring that was her neck. 

The officer wrapped his arms around her.  Somehow Ororo managed to keep her right arm from being pinned to her side although it did her no good.   Trapped in a bearhug, Ororo felt the air being squeezed out of her.   Her left hand managed to latch onto the officer's holstered gun.  Everything was spinning and fading to black for Ororo.    Instinctively her grip tightened on the gun's handle.  Using it as leverage, she kneed the officer square between the legs.  She caught him completely off-guard:  her heaving breasts had distracted him with lascivious thoughts. 

A hurt look flashed across the officer's face.  He started to utter something, but Ororo delivered a chop across his windpipe.  Then slipping behind him and grabbing him by his belt, she tossed him into the van.  She slammed both doors shut.    She tried to concentrate and mentally sweep away the cobwebs that ensnared her still woozy head.  She expected the doors to burst open at any second.   Instead, a furious banging from within the van erupted.   The doors had apparently locked, and the officer could not open them from within.   Ororo sighed in relief.   This was the reprieve she needed.  Unfortunately, it proved all too short-lived.

From behind her, she heard the clapping of hands, slow yet loud.  "Bravo," a woman's voice spoke, dragging out the long "o" with a sarcastic inflection.  Although the voice was unrecognized, her tone clearly indicated she was a foe, not a friend.  Ororo spun about to confront this apparent new threat, her brows furrowed wtih rage.  All claustrophobic thoughts were now superseded with anger.   Her evening plans had been ruined.  That was bad enough.  To top it off, she had been knocked out, stripped to her undies, groped by some pretend policeman, and now was about to tussle with yet another adversary.

Wow
Great scene
Really like you described the fight
I thought your words were efficient and effective . Your descriptions  of the all those moves and counter moves flowed easily along and were easy to visualize. I thoufgr that was some very good writing.
I like how your story mentions that Storm is a skilled ("non powered") hand to hand combatant .
And I reallly like that your story quietly demonstrates the "grit" and determination and "strength of character"  of the character . She is almost continually "on the rocks"( She drops the taser , she gets punched in face -twice . and put into a debilitating bear hug . But because  she has that spirit and the skill  and the toughness  of mind  she does not give up .
She finds an edge and exploits it and turns things around , even though she is dazed and hurting  the whole time .
You have depicted the character just as I imagine her .
Thank you for that.
 And I like that part about how the faux police officer  was  lasciviously distracted by Ororo's heaving breasts. That was great detail.
And then , when she finally prevails our heroine is almost immediately confronted by a nother combat challenge.
Things are not letting up , even for a moment.
I thought the ironic / sarcastic manner in which this new threat introduces herself was a great detail  as well as Storm's anger( which displaces her claustrophobia) as she reviews all that she had to deal with so far  and " Now This " was another great bit of story construction
Really enjoying your story
Well done .
Very much looking forewarned to what ever is coming up next
