Let's play. >Nervously, they each put up their dukes. >you drop into a fighting stance, lowering your center of gravity >judging by the way they were glancing at eachother, you were about to get bumrushed. >this way, you had a more solid base. >you raise an eyebrow mockingly >Anon used Taunt! What's the matter, four on one and you're still scared? >They all snarl in response. What's the matter? Too chicken to- >It's Super Effective! >With a battle cry, all four charge >alwaysworks.jpg >you send the nearest one stumbling backwards with a push kick to the abdomen >ducking under the wild swing of the second, you retaliate with a hook to the ribcage, twisting your hips and feet to add your weight to the force behind it >Grabbing him by the shoulders, you drive three solid knees to his body, before being forced to relinquish your grip by a bearhug from behind. >taken by surprise, he has you in the air before you can properly drop your weight. >even as you kick away the second, you snap your head into the face of the third. >to his credit, he still holds you, grunting in pain as his eyes water reflexively >however, his grip on you is loosened, giving you ample opportunity to hook your foot inside his leg and pull forward. >slamming your head into his face once more, you succeed in breaking his grip, and a hard elbow to what you guessed to be his chest is enough to send him sprawling, your foot acting as a fulcrum. >however, the fourth shoots in and catches you with a cross before you can properly guard yourself, and you stumble back. >following with another big shot to the body, he winds you, and you shuffle backwards, hoping to gain some distance. >You soon realize that you didn't take out the first dog when his fist collides with the back of your head, knocking you forward. >oh shit son, is that Luna's mane you're seeing? >you shake the stars out of your vision-- >only for them to reappear as the Dog in front of you slams another right straight into your nose >this does not look nor feel good. >gritting your teeth, you instinctively shift your weight as you step back, adding the momentum of his punch to your own >shifting your weight, you lash out at the dog behind you with an elbow strike, mentally judging where his position should be. >Roll for Damage >Nat 20 >you catch him in the windpipe, and down he goes, gagging as he clutches his throat. >were you not fighting, you'd wince. >You might have crushed his Larnyx, and just /thinking/ about that hurt like a bitch. >guarding your face, you shake the stars out of your vision even as the last dog lands a shot to your left side >Thankfully, you don't feel anything give, and retaliate with a splendidly executed cross to the cheek. >Unwilling to give up momentum, you begin to pound him with crosses and hooks, alternating lefts and rights as you drive him backwards. >Unfortunately, they mostly land on his guard, save for the few body shots you send in to keep things unpredictable. >Well then, time to use the ol' reliable. >you let up on the attacks to his upper body, and begin assaulting the legs with shin kicks >as best you can, anyway. >these guys have legs the size of a filly's >fuckthisshit.avi >you quickly shiffle sideways, circling. >Even as he turns to face you, you swing your leg up in a crescent motion, >And slam it straight down on his guards >Whatchu know 'bout axe kicks, hater? >as soon as your foot touches the ground, you practically launch yourself into a massive hook that catches him in the jaw. >He staggers back for a second, and you follow with an uppercut to the chin. >He crumples. >you stand there for a moment, panting. >you hear a groan as the the leader recovers from your flying knee. >you turn-- >And immediately drive your heel into the solar plexus of the third dog, who tried to sneak up on you. >Stumbling back from the spinning side kick, he lands on his ass, gasping for breath. >You send another roundhouse to his head, shin colliding with the temple. >He's out like a light. >warily glancing at the rest, you begin to advance towards the leader of the group, who has managed to sit up. >knocking him on his back with a push kick, you pin him to the ground, sliding one knee onto his chest and holding down his left arm near the shoulder joint. >time to get some answers.
