Nessie doesn't say a word. There's so much -- maybe too much -- that she could say about this. Maybe starting with 'you knew me when I was a kid, too, before life messed me up'. But her eyes are hard and angry...
And she steps in close, throwing a sharp, vicious elbow into Donna's side. Even as that impacts, she brings her purse up, strap flying as a distraction while tries to drive her left heel into Donna's ankle and throw off the older woman's balance. The unexpectedness of the move lets it hit, and Donna yelps --
Then Nessie wraps her arms around Donna's torso and heaves her up -- belly to belly -- before throwing her in a sprawl to the ground. Donna lashes out with a kick to drive Nessie back, but Nessie ducks low and twists one of Donna's arms into a joint lock.
"Vicious," she hisses out, "unpredictable. And there's plenty broken in me, sister. Isn't it lucky that we birds of a feather flock together?"
Donna could probably break the hold. She's much stronger than Vanessa, and what offense that Vanessa was able to mount didn't do much harm even with the advantage of surprise. But she lies there for a moment, staring into Nessie's angry eyes, and says, "You're not a killer like he is."
