Onyx could tell her plan was working, he wasn't able to hit her very hard whenever he managed to hit her, and she was beginning to think she should go a little easier on him when she dashed in again, and he managed to hit her with his tail. She felt herself lose her footing and begin to fall, and she tried to change her momentum in a way that would make it so she would roll away and recover instead. Before she was able to though, Tarentek managed to grab one of her arms. 

Now Onyx was kneeling on the ground, mid-roll, but stopped by Tarentek's hold on her arm. She moved quickly, before he could get her other arm, standing and turning at the same time in an attempt to twist his arm and get out of the grip, while with her other arm she started jabbing the pressure pints in his shoulder, or trying to anyway.
