Ok, showing what she could do did NOT mean curing herself. That was just cheating. It's not like SHE could do that when she was facing down a bunch of guys in battle. But she also never said she couldn't either, so no point in bitching about it.
Once the all right happened, Hit Girl thought she was ready, but suddenly there was a blow that knocked her hard in the air. There was a moment of being stunned (why not) but Hit Girl was not one for leaving herself open too much. She tucked herself into a ball save for the sword out, making sure she had a moment or two before she could right herself on the ground again.
