My fear with this scene is that I've dragged it out too long (there's still a few more pages to come). I was trying to make something a little more interesting than your run of the mill fight scene, but I'm not sure if the scene ran away from me here. Pang had already been outed as a Shaolin monk on page 129, so he could have just kicked ass on page 131, right? But I wanted him to be pushed to the limit. I just don't want the reader to feel like the scene is dancing around what's inevitable.
