Description: Malin is in Metro to mess with Mad Gear. Adira is in Metro because it's her hometown. Both are in the park when Mad Gear is on the loose... and they're more than willing to team up to take some punks (thugs, and creeps) down.
Not much has been done about Metro City, but ground is not being lost nor gained. The police are busy, too busy keeping the situation across Metro under control to simply push them back. They were removed from the outskirts not a bit ago.. but Metro City itself.. well.. the scene speaks for itself.
In Metro City Park, a bastion in the form of greenery.. it's now a Thug's paradise. If you want to get mugged in no time flat, it's been known as the hip and cool place to be.
Cars have been forcefully driven into the park, some crashed into trees, some leaving paths before they were left randomly. One sitting half in a watery part of a small pond. It's been better. Far, far better. But then, Mad Gear never really did anything with much care for the environment. A few no name goons patrol the edges of the park, the entrances, and more importantly, there is the zoo and the Merry go round, other amusement park like rides all about. With different goons and trashy beings laying in them or around them, happy to either deface them, as the graffiti shows, or just lay around, as some of the half naked women, due to their 'choice' of dress, lying in them are anything to say about it.
In some corners, Police and goons clash, but they can't get close enough to take it back easily.
But who can!?%^r
WILL NO ONE HELP SAVE THIS CHILDREN'S PARADISE!?
NEVER FEAR! Malin is here!
Well. As far as superheroes go, she was pretty low budget. She didn't even have a real costume! But, when it comes to sneaking past thugs in order to make a suitably dramatic entrance, she was as good as they come! Apparently she hadn't been completely lying when she said she was going to do her bit to clean up Metro City. It'd cost her most of what she'd made winning the fight to get here, but, that wasn't important! It's time to Save the Day in a heroic and dramatic fashion!
Quite suddenly, Malin comes out of nowhere to leap atop the merry-go-round, a megaphone in one hand, and a knife in the other. "YO! Mad Gear Thugs!" She bellows into the megaphone, resulting in a nasty /squeal/ before her voice echoes around the park.
"This is Malin! Me and the group I'm working for, we don't like what you've done with the place! You've got, like, no style! You've got ten seconds to get the heck out of here before I start kicking butt, you got me? We're not standing for you guys any more!"
Well. It was certainly a noble sentiment, but, could Malin really hope to challenge a whole park full of thugs by herself? She was certainly willing to give it a shot!
Sometimes, you just gotta go home. Actually, in this case, Adira had just arrived a couple weeks ago in Southtown.. but the plane ticket was cheap and it's her best friend's birthday. She came on the early flight--the redeye--and decided, for old time's sake, to walk the park for a few hours. It'll get her blood going, clear the sleepiness from her head, that sort of thing. It's nostalgic.
Or that is... it would be... if it weren't currently the sight of a clash between the police, Mad Gear... and Malin. Adira... -hates- Mad Gear. Perhaps not as much as, say, Cody, Guy, or Haggar (or Jessica) but she hates them pretty badly, for what they did to her beloved Metro City years ago... and they're trying it again???
She's -already- ready to fight them, despite what consequences may befall her... but then she hears Malin's voice on that megaphone. Ah, Christ, it's that girl... that's right, she mentioned she was going to Metro to fight Mad Gear... heh. Adira turns towards the merry-go-round and starts making her way over there, in less of a jog than a full run. "HEY!" she shouts, at Malin, as she arrives, "Guess you weren't kidding about cleaning up Metro!" she continues as she, unbidden, takes up a place near Malin. "Since you're cleaning up Metro I guess I'll lend you a hand!"
The Merry Go Round suddenly /JUST GOT MORE AWESOME/.
But seriously, when she leaps atop the thing, a megaphone in hand and a knife, bellowing, a nasty squeal causes the half naked women to topple out of their laying area, some of the goons to cover their ears, wincing, and more than one person looking up towards Malin and her band of merry .. well, woman.
There begins to be a crowd of goons about the Merry-Go-Round. They come from all corners, a she talks. The crowd yelling, seemingly angry. AND THEY HAVE EVERY RIGHT TO BE. "Hey, wassup with her? We stole this place first!" "YEAH! Style of not this is OUR park now lady!" "Baby, you looked better when you kept your mouth shut!" "LET'S GET HER!"
Of course, Adira is there as well. And of course Adira. Katana believes IT IS TIME for MAD GEAR DOMINANCE. And nothing will get in his way.
And then Adira starts running over, shouting. Looking over, the goons turn to face her from one side, and try to converge on her. Adira will make it to the top however. OR at least, somewhere safer than PILE O' GOONS.
Of course, with every sector in Metro City.. there are lots of henchmen. Some of them strong than the others.
This time, there's three.
Schot, well, he comes carrying a tire over his shoulder, burly, but not too huge. He's got muscle going on, but they aren't BULGING. "Heh. Looky here. They think they can take it back." A thin man. Incredibly so, frail looking as well, suddenly leaps up onto the back of the carnival, sliding on gloves.. which are notable due to the claws. "Why yes, you have made a terrible mistake, women, for having gotten involved... Such a pity!" And of course, one is climbing the Merry-G-Round with a knife in his teeth. "MGHHH!" Putting it into an arm. "Eheheheheh! You want to do what!?" He's scrawny looking too. "You aren't gonna do any of that, you crazy bitches!"
OH SNAP.
Punk straps it /onto/ his arm. Not into. That's just silly.
Malin winks to Adira, tossing her megaphone to the side, the girl points a finger at her in the traditional 'gun' style, and grins her trademarked Cocky Grin. "Of course I wasn't joking!" She declares brightly, "Leave it to Malin, right?" She tucks her knife back into her pocket, then, and looks around at the assembled Goons.
This was going to be FUN!
"Well, I warned you!" She shouts, still pretty loud even /without/ technological assistance! "But. I guess you aren't taking me seriously!~" And with that, she jumps up into the air, and aims to come down... right on top of the Creep's head. If she connects, she'll use his head as a base to jump down, and roll onto the floor proper. Smiling brightly, with that knife coming out again.
"So, what are ya going to do about it, eh?~"

Walking around Metro can be really boring sometime, so then she takes a cab, but by the park there is totally something going on. The witch plasters her shades to the glass as the vehicle drives by all crazy like. She doesn't speak immigrant though so getting the cab to stop is stupid difficult! She finally decides to just bail because lets face it, she didn't wanna pay a tip (or the fair) anyway. Except WAIT! There is a fight going down? No way, the witch is not gonna get her backside handed to her on a merry go round, that would be like too cliche. Or something.
Naerose surveys the situation. Scoop! She beams and her shades form $$ signs. There is of course ways to watch this safely. She decides the convenience store on the nearest corner would do, a bit of a ways off but she's totally got binoculars. It looks like the store used for clerks and with a quick little help from her broom, she manages to crash on the roof, and uses an A/C unit for a lawn chair. She's just about to start watching the goings on when she realizes she is missing something. A short trip back to the ground, into the store and back out again later - and she has it. . Popcorn and soda pop! Sweet. The witch returns to her perch on the A/C unit. Thankfully Malin has a mega phone and thugs like to shout, so she can hear mostly what is going on. She pulls out her reporter notebook and starts taking notes and then a voice recorder.
"Naerose Delphine, reporting from the scene of gang violence in Metro City. The young vigilant known only as Malin has engaged a group of thugs in some sort of turf war." The witch clicks her device off and watches safely from a distance.

Henh. Punks, creeps, thugs... Adira faces them down without fear. "I grew up here, you assholes!" she shouts, at the taunting punk... then of course, Malin has to take the initiative and try to jump on one of 'em. Three on two... "This is gonna be FUN," she grins. Just because she's heroic doesn't mean she doesn't like violence, after all. Looking back and forth, she decides to let Malin tangle with the punk guy--she gets first choice, after all. The guy with the tire... man, that's not gonna be fun to tangle with.
Which is why she goes for him first, of course. "Hey hey hey! Three on two here, huh? Big, brave guys gotta gang up on two girls??" she taunts... of course, she doesn't believe that sexist claptrap, but it's good for taunting little minds.
Along with the taunting, of course, there's an effort to, as they say, 'knock him the f**k out'; that is, she pushes off the ground and leaps forward, tucking into a tight tumble. Her goal is to land on Schot's shoulders, grab his head by the knees, and then spin forward, tumbling forward and flipping the big man up and over and down onto the ground face-first.

As Malin shouts back they've been warned, the goons laugh! Well, sure, if these girlies want to get the snot beaten out of their little faces, they're more than willing to. They can't be THAT bad after all!
Oh wow. Pretty loud. "Take you seriously?" Creep, Dirk, chirps. "Why would I do something such as that! You would begin to think you were actually worth something." And then she jumps into the air, aiming to come down onto Thug's head. Thug looks up. "What the he-" He calls, before she comes down.
So what does Thug do? He lets go.. but in time!? No. Infact he's driven down to the ground with the kick, and oddly enough, crashes pretty hard. Eliot ends up inverting, back of his head hitting the ground. "Hehee-FFF! Damn you bitch.. Gonna get'cha.." He calls, grinning, teeth almost shining if not for LAYERS OF PLAQUE. But he has a knife. And so do you, Malin. And suddenly Eliot's knife is flung forwards towards Malin as he leaps to his feet. "Oh we're going to enjoy carvin' you girls! Wait, you're one of us? But you AIN'T one of us? Heehee what a waste!"
And then Thug is beset upon. Schot was never the fastest. But he doesn't need to. "Hey. You know what. You're thinkin' we GIVE a damn, girly." Thug is TOUGH AS NAILS. Perhaps he's the leader of the lower ones. And then she pushes off the ground, leaping forwards.. and then aims to grab his head by the knees. "Like I'd love some of that lovin'." He calls, before he pulls off Adira ocne she's on, his neck hutin' like hell, but still a-ok.. and then punts her away. Through a kick to the shins. "You gotta try harder then that!"
And towards Malin, there's another. Creep. He's been sitting there for a while.. WHAT IS HE PLANNING ON DOING? He kicks off the Merry-Go-Round.. and then literately dives towards Malin, claws coming to try and pierce into her. She better be fast! "I'll just finish you off /quickly/!"

Malin dodges nimbly out the way as Creep lunges at her with those claws. WOW! Dude! Back off, since when did random thugs get to talk to her like that? No way! She couldn't go letting him get the idea he might be able to lay a finger on her! And it's with her attention caught by the creep that she is only aware of that knife being flung her way when she catches a glimpse of metal out the corner of her eye. Though she twists to try and avoid it, avoid it, she does not. And she winds up taking a slice right down her side, through her best shirt! Hey! That was totally not cool!
"Eh, whatever, you guys are hardly worth my time anyway. Let's get this over with!" She declares, reaching into her back pocket.
And quite suddenly, a familiar yoyo lashes out from her outstretched hand. ONLY ITS NOT SO FAMILIAR!
Rather than her usual trademark yoyo of DOOM this one is... even more doom-like! Dual layers of wicked blades spring out as it buzzes its way towards the claw-wielding fiend. Incredibly close, incredibly fast, and aiming right for his midsection.
Huh! Well, if that's the way it's gonna be... Adira gets punted, but not particularly hard; she flips in midair and lands on her feet, in a deep crouch. "'Some of that lovin'' she quotes, mockingly. "I bet your momma's the only one who'd let you do that, tubby!" she retorts, looking up at the big tire-wielding guy. Out of the corner of her eye she notices that Malin just got tagged too--three on two, this definitely isn't good. Gotta try and lower the odds somehow...
Lunging after the knife-wielding Eliot, she mutters under her breath, "God I -swore- no more weapons users..." For Eliot, however, Adira doesn't try anything fancy--she just rushes him down.
And aims a booted foot for his balls in a straight, full-on kick. Hey, why get fancy when you don't have to?

A YOYO. The strongest of weapons. Creep can't touch her, his claws slamming into the ground, almost getting stuck, as he pulls. And then there's a yoyo coming out towards him. It's DOOMTASTIC. Dual layers of blades attempt to slam into Dirk, and he pulls as hard as he can. MUST.. FREE. SELF. But he can't, and the bladed weapon smashes into him. Thrown back, bleeding, Creep glares. "Well then.." ANd suddenly, he pulls free, due to help from Malin, before bringing a slash towards Adira's back. Slow. Powerful. BLADED.
And of course, Thug seems to have done something rather effective. "Heeeheehee surreee girl. Whatever you say! But -That a yoyo?" He asks, tossing a knife between both hands. "What kind of weapon is THAT?" Eliot suddenly lunges this time towards Adira, raising his knife upwards as he brings it towards towards Adira's backside. "Hheheheh!" It's a running strike.. but even if it's something running-Oh wait she's coming STRAIGHT at him. He aims to meet her head on, rushing towards her.. knife out. "Maybe you should listen to yourself!" And then he gets kicked in the FACE.
It rather hurts.
Thug, meanwhile, begins to swing something. A tire. But it's a larger one he's pried off a car when they weren't looking. "Hey LADY. I thought you mighta lost this!" FASTER AND FASTER, before he hammer throws it towards Malin!

Malin looks a little annoyed as the creep stops focusing on her, and instead moves to attack Adira. Unfortunately, she doesn't have time to rectify this situation, as she's got a -tire- thrown at her. The girl yanks back on her yoyo, and sends it spiralling out a second time, fully intending to have it slice through the oncoming weapon, and continue on to the thug who had dared to mock her style! "HAH! It's enough to--"
Unfortunately. Tires have those big /holes/ in them. And her beloved Onigumo goes sailing right through, before she can so much as finish her retort, the girl winds up slammed in the face by the tire, and topples back over.
"Oooow..."

Ah, there's nothing like the feel of a foot impacting someone. Best in the world. Adira has barely retracted her right leg from that kick when she -feels- the thin man at her back... there isn't time to turn around and then react. If she does that, she'll be gutted open before she can even think. Movement and action must be as one.
Fortunately, Adira's good at that. She twists to her left, spinning around with her left knee up; it's used to knock that blade out of line. Then she plants her left foot and pushes off, thrusting her right knee upwards. It takes the man in the chin, hurling him upwards--and Adira follows, leaping off the ground.
It's one smooth series of motions; Dirk leaves the ground, then Adira leaves the ground, knee-first... then she's flipping in midair, kicking the thin man away from her before landing on one knee.
The tire sails true, and ends up smashing right into Malin. It's funny. To Schot. "Hahah. Look at that. You were sayin'? I think you might not be all you put yourself up to!" He taunts to Malin, grinning, and walking up to her now. There's not point to simply lay off the offensive! Especially with all the goons watching! THINGS COULD GET BAD.. for the goons. Moving over to Malin, Schot aims to grab the tire and start a SWININ' trying to plow into Malin. "HERE WE GO!"
Meanwhile, Dirk is suddenly spun around on, and the left foot pushes off, the knee thrust upwards, slamming into the chin and tossing the paper thin like man about. THe smooth series of motions causes him to be kicked hard, into the ground, crashing, before he twitches. "Ngh.." Pulling himself off a few goons, and the Merry go round, he's more or less doing alright.. if you take bleeding badly as alright. "Well.. so you do have something!" He notes, standing, getting a breather.. and looking back to Adira. "Troublesome wench."
Eliot, the Punk, left alone? IT CANNOT BE. Pulling himself up finally, he aims to rush towards Adira's back, like before, and jab that knife straight into her! It's a quick, bee like sting over the more painful, long drawn out assaults.
"You're getting destroyed, Dirk!" "Hmmph. Only for the moment!" "SHUT UP YOU TWO. Hit them more!" Thug calls out, spinning!

Malin tuts lightly, shaking her head. Unfortunately. The irritatingly large man was probably on to something. She really wasn't at the top of her game. Blame fatigue! Yes, that'll do. Too much time fighting Adira and Ninja and getting electrocuted and blown up. It had been a tough week on poor Malin, but, still. These guys were amateurs! She shouldn't be letting them get to her!
This is the thought process Malin idly runs herself through as she closes on Schot, ducking underneath the swung tire as though it were nothing. She doesn't say anything, in fact. Just a mildly annoyed look on her face until she's right up close- too close for Schot's tire to come in without him hitting himself, hopefully!
"Nah. I'm Malin, right? My group wouldn't hire me if I wasn't the best~"
And to accentuate her words, right up close as she is to the much larger man, she reaches behind her... and quite suddenly, she's produced a /sword/ from somewhere about her person. Where the hell she could have been keeping it in such a skimpy costume is a question that would drive scientists mad. Good thing there aren't any around, as she aims a pretty clumsy /stab/ at the man. Aiming to impale him in the center mass with the weapon, before ducking back out again. Good psychological tactic there, if the attack actually manages to hit.

Constantly, Adira is turning back and forth, dealing with these two punks while Malin takes her pick... well, that's alright. It's what she trained for. Back and forth they go; she kicks Dirk away and then in comes Eliot with his knife. Adira turns her head towards him, bouncing on the balls of her feet; just when he stabs, she jerks backwards, letting his attack fall short of doing any real damage other than a light wound to the stomach. Something she's familiar with and doesn't mind.
And then she's flipping forward, onto her hands, seeking to lock her ankles around Eliot's neck; should she manage that she'll whipcrack her body backwards, to throw Eliot back behind her--maybe even near Dirk, if possible...

And then Malin ducks under the tire, which causes him to keep on spinning. Until she begins to talk. "I think they hired you for others reasons than that! But I don't swing like that babe." He explains, coming to a stop before she reaches behind herself and pulls out a SWORD. "Woah what the hell!" He calls out as the bladed weapon aims to stab at him, aiming to impale him. Well. That tire has one last swing in it.
Schot, the Thug, makes use of it. Swinging it towards Adira while she swings hers. "Think you're gonna learn the hard way!" And then the sword slides onto him hard. "Gah... The hell..?"
Meanwhile, Adira is able to jerk backwards and scratch her. Hopping forwards, Eliot, the Punk, is off balance. "W-WOah HEY! HEehehee.. you think it's that easy?" And then suddenly.. he tries to slide under her, as she leaps.
It doesn't go so well, and as he's thrown behind her, nearby Dirk, Dirk laughs. "And you are doing well?" Elito gets up, grimacing, before rushing towards Adira once more.. and rushing rather quickly, as well, aiming to simply kick her in the stomach.
Before a knife rips out of the sole, trying to jab into her stomach, as he tries to twist. "Heeheehe! How do you like that!"
Creep, meanwhile dashes towards Malin, and quickly, stab into her back MULTIPLE TIMES, the claws slashing quickly as he goes to work, before trying to jab the glove straight into her back.

Malin grins as the attack strikes home against Thug, but, call it her years of experience, she suddenly gets the feeling that she should -turn around-. And it's all a little bit late for that, because he's -on her and he won't get off!- Malin tries as best she can to dodge and duck and stop herself getting stabbed the hell up, and she fails. Winding up quite thoroughly stabbed up. Ouch. That -really- hurt!
She was getting quite sick of this. The girl grits her teeth, and reaches down behind her as his attack starts to come to a close, and suddenly in both hands she's got a pair of long metal tubes, ending in nasty copper spikes.
Her arms come out quite far, and she seeks to -stab- those prods deep into the claw-wielding psycho. If she makes contact, he'll find himself quite suddenly receiving a very nasty -jolt- of electricity.
She grins, regardless of whether the attack works or not, "Treating a lady like this! Geez, you guys, it's shocking, you know?" And a cocky wink is cast towards Thug, gesturing to the man idly, "You don't look so good, you know? Sure you don't want to call it a day? I'm going to have to get serious soon~"

Huh. Boot knife. Funny, Malin tried that too... Adira sets herself, briefly planting her feet so as to better receive the incoming kick. It hits, and the knife too; she grimaces in pain, but she doesn't let that kick stop her. In fact, she clamps her hands on that booted leg.
"Asshole... got to use dirty tricks," she hisses... before lifting that leg of his up high, forcing him off balance. The goal here is to then sweep Eliot's other leg out from underneath him, with her right foot; if that's done, dumping him to the ground, Adira will punctuate her point with an axe kick to drop her right heel into Eliot's stomach. God, now she's bleeding -again-...
"Goddamn knife wielding -assholes-!" she hisses, sounding rather disgruntled. She's gonna go to some karate dojo and beat up someone who doesn't use goddamn knives, she swears...

Creep feels relatively happy. How well that worked! And as she grits her teeth and spins around, a pair of tubes with spikes on them, Dirk notices them. And yet, they are coming to STAB THEM INTO HIM, and he doesn't want that at all. So Creep tries to leap out of the way, kicking back off the ground as the prod comes forwards, the electricity seeking his frail body! And then it courses through him, removing the will for him to fight as he zaps all about, painfully.. but when he falls to his knees.. he coughs.. and then begins to roll towards Malin, SPINNING WITH BLADES and CLAWS! "Here I come! Do you think it's that easy!?"
"Hmm? This is the way you ASK to be treated, my good lady!" He speaks to her, as he attempts to leap out of the way.
Thug, recovering, looks over to Ayame. "Yeah? Well you shoulda seen the way we treated ANOTHER lady, lady! And I don't think.. serious. Hah.. You're already serious!" He proclaims, as he's serious himself. Although it's possible it stands for 'seriously screwed'. He runs forwards, sending a heavy fist towards .. Adira's face, instead of Malins. He just plain RUINS and punches, pulling the tire behind him as he moves through the goons.
And then Adira grabs Punk's leg, forcing him off balance as she aims to axe kick him in his stomach.. "Oh, well I guess you shouldn't be so easy to STAB! Eheeheee!" He calls out, as he's AXE Kicked.. and in a surprising show of speed, is able to Adira's action against her, hands coming up and pushing him out of the way as he's dropped, sort of a handstand leap away. "Guess you need to aim too!" And Then... ELIOT ... takes in a breathe. He's plum tuckered out!
"Oh you idiot, GET BACK INTO FIGHTING!" Punk commands, as he tries to simply bash Adira's head with his fist, the goons cheering and watching on. "Heehehee.. s-sure...!"

Well. That just isn't -nice-.
Although Malin does her very best to get out of the Creep's way, the tenacious little sod just keeps on coming! Totally not cool, man! Totally not cool. Malin doesn't have /time/ to get beaten here. These were just lowlives! She was aiming for the big cheese. But it was pretty hard to think of them as lowlives when they were doing a number on her. Damn, girl! What's wrong with you today, pay attention! Getting stabbed HURTS!
So. What's a girl to do? Well, since the claw wielding menace just wasn't going down, she narrows her eyes, and reaches into her back pocket, withdrawing her trusty flick-knife, which is prepared with an ominous =click=.
"Stay down, already! I don't have time to deal with you!" She declares at the top of her lungs, before leaping forwards at the creep. She arches her back, putting all she had into this one strike. If it lands home, it'll aim to draw right the way across his body, and fling him away from her. Hopefully for good!

This is getting serious. Adira can't tell just how badly Malin's been hurt, but it seems to be pretty bad; even with the beating these two are visiting upon their opponents, this is not going very well... Eliot's rushing her head on, just like he did before... and that makes Adira grin, in a deeply wicked manner. "You're... TOO SLOW!" she shouts; that fist just barely glances off her head before she draws her right leg back then up, leaping upwards to drive her knee into his face... just like she did to Dirk.
Only, her knee is ablze with crimson chi, exploding over his chin as she leaps upwards, and when she performs her flip kick, she doesn't do it just once, but three times--each two-footed flip kick sheathed in that same crimson fire.
Once again, she lands, on one knee.
"Get the hell out of here, you goddamn punk!!!"

Never is, never will be. Thugs are far from nice. EVER! Standing up after the rolling, Creep fixes his badly roughed up clothes, smiling. And then Malin draws a knife. A click of it drawing his attention, and causing him to turn about, looking on to Malin.. as she aims to slam a knife to his side.. well, he tries to side step. QUICKLY. Almost. The knife slashes against him .. and catches him alright.. but not fully on. "See you are-ARGH!" Creep is struck enough to send him down, falling against the ground, before running at Adira, while he back is turned.. "HAAAAAAAAH!" You might remember this, Adira! .. Strike or not, after the quick slashes, he's on the ground, face first.
Meanwhile, Thug slams his fist into Adira! .. And that's not as what as he expected. The fist that was supposed to slam into her causes her to react.. far better. The knee slams into his face. ON CHI. This is his face on chi.. it is quite poor. "You're ONE OF THEM!?" He asks. Dammit! Aura, the weakness of the fighters! And then he's flipped into the air.. causing him to land horribly painful onto the ground, bleeding. "Ah...You got lucky babe..." Before he cracks his knuckles. And then charges her. "It's .. OVER!" He cries, aiming to take that tire across her face over and over again, slamming whipping it, and then dropping it as he goes to work with his fists, pounding and pounding. He's just flailing. "STAY DOWN!"
Poor, Poor Malin!.
Punk, looking on, charges Adira.. aiming a quick kick to the front of her.. to prevent her from striking back! "Youi guys .. shouldn't have messed with us!"

Malin takes a deep breath, picking herself up from the ground. When she becomes aware of the thug tearing towards her, the girl steadies herself. And her eyes meet his. She was on FIRE! She couldn't let herself get beaten down by some random thugs! This was not why Malin had come out here today. SHE DIDN'T HAVE TIME TO LOSE!
She grins as he comes in at her, and crosses her arms over her body. The tire bounces off her guard as though he's hit a -rock-, not a squishy little girl. And as the blows rain down, the thug could be forgiven for thinking exactly that. Malin refused to let herself go down so easy. She simply wouldn't let it happen. Instead, she was going to intimidate the hell out of this guy.
When the thug finally tires of beating on her rock-solid guard, the girl bounces back a couple of steps, just as sprightly and lithe as she had been at the beginning of this fight. And from her back pocket, she pulls a yoyo, idly playing with it, letting it spin down, her eyes haven't left the thug since he came barreling towards her.
"I told you I'd have to get serious." She says in a sing-song voice. "Come on big boy. Let's play. Round two, ding ding!~"

Finally, they come at her at the same time; Adira's head whips back and forth, gauging the two incoming enemies. First she deals with that incoming kick; using her arms, she simply deflects that kick away, taking the impact on her leather-guarded forearms. Creep's 'back attack' is a more serious matter; she turns and fades a little, using her hands to throw that strike off a little as well. It scores a thin line, but not much else against her--and then the thin man is out. Good.
She cracks her knuckles, taking a rare moment for a break. "Two on two now, boys," she remarks, confidently, popping her neck left and right as well. Yeah, she and Malin can handle this, she's sure of that.
"Maybe you two wanna give up now? Before you go the way of the dodo..." Her eyes tighten. "That is to say, before we make you extinct."

As Malin crosses her arms, the tire bounces, and then the blows rain.. but nothing happens. He finally does tire, and only a little damage has been done from what he sees. "The hell.. oh you're gettin' on my nerves kid." He spits out, but he does not really back off. As she bounces back, a few steps away, Thug, Schot, doesn't even give a damn. "Yeah. What you want? Sure.. I'll kick you around some more! What rhymes with 'Beaten to death!?" He asks, roaring, the goons backing up a bit .. uh.. shouldn't they be winning?
"YOU!" He responds to himself, swinging back his fist a few times before slamming it towards Adira. "HAH!"
No one cars about Creep. The blades are blocked and Dirk goes down first. It's a rare moment.. no not really. Dirk always goes down first! The others have gotten used to it.
Eliot tosses his knife back and forth a few times. "Too bad that's all we need, ain't it?" He asks, taunting back, before diving towards Adira, trying to grab her leg and flip her over, instead of stabbing her again. He aims to simply flip and chuck.
Like she was just some kind of PANCAKE!
"Looks like you need to see.. Heeheee.. Just how weak you are!"

Malin ducks back and down, doing her best to get the heck out of the way, but, no. It's not to be. The girl winds up getting battered around, and even her mask starts to crack. She couldn't hold up a brave face under this sort of assault. What the heck was wrong with these guys? Did they just not -get- that they were completely outclassed?
Well, call Malin crazy, but, she wasn't willing to throw in the towel just yet. Surely her good friend Adira would back her up! Sure, they may only have met yesterday, and that may have been in an intense, all-or-nothing fight the likes of which would rock throughout the ages (on affordable DVD's, no less), but she had absolute confidence that they could pull through this.
So, that yoyo? Again, it springs out, and this time its blades spring out en route, shooting towards Schot even as Malin leaps back.
The aim? This time, its shooting out to cut right the way across his brow. It's a pretty shallow cut, by all accounts, but that wasn't the point. The point was to fill his eyes with blood, and put enough distance between herself and the large man that she could see what was coming at her.
"Hah! That... that all you got, big man? COME ON! I'm the best there is. You think my group would send some... some little girl who can't handle a lummox like you? You... you had better just... call it a day!"

Oh, she's getting flipped, that's for sure. She doesn't even move when Eliot goes after her; with Dirk out of the way she's feeling much more confident in her and Malin's chances. He gets his grip and up Adira goes, flipping over uncontrollably! It's going to make for a hard landing for sure, and Metro City Park's grass is full of rocks and stones. Sure, landing is going to hurt.
But she's not going to let Eliot just toss her around, see; her flip isn't completely uncontrolled. As she's flipped, she uses the momentum Eliot gave her, to kick up and out as she flies into the air.
Naturally, she's aiming for his chin with that kick, hoping to make contact whether she lands badly or not. And either way, she's floored for a moment.

As Malin get struck multiple times, mask cracking and everything, Thug doesn't even THINK about slowly down! So when Malin, outclassing him and everything, continues the onslaught, Schot doesn't care! Especially when Malin thinks she can pull through. Thug, however, has other ideals for such a thing.. and then the yoyo comes out, blades heading towards Thug as he rushes straight towards it, aiming to slide under the spinning circle of doom.. "You think that's all I got? Cause you're wrong alright!" And then OH THE PAIN. That hurt far more than he expected. Thug's slashed over his entire body, and the goons are backing up farther, some pulling back. They aren't staying for an ass beating.
"STAY HERE DAMN IT!" Schot commands, and takes the tire up, tired and everything. "I'll show you .. THIS! And then you can call it a day!" Schot takes the tire, rushing as fast as he can towards Malin despite the cut wounds, the pain overwhelming, making him see blood red.
And then he jabs the tire towards Malin. "Just fall DOWN!"
For Adira, as she flips to the ground, Eliot laughs. "Heeheehe! You're kidding me!" He cries, as the kick aimed for his chin is slid away from, bending back. "Maybe you should go back where you came from! We don't wantcha either!" He laughs, before chucking a small blade towards Adira, another knife flying towards the girl this time. "Just get stabbed and die! Heeheehee!" No, they aren't the best of fighters.. or talkers.

Malin drops to one knee as the blow comes sweeping in at her. The girl takes a deep breath, okay, this guy was starting to really annoy her. The girl reaches down into her boot, and withdraws another knife. This one quite small. She takes a firm grip on the handle. "Stay down?" She says, forcing herself to grin, "But, buddy, I'm only just getting started! What, you aren't... starting to slow down, are ya?" She doesn't -sound- terribly convincing, her voice just a little more subdued than it had been when she first burst onto the scene all vim and vigour, but, she still has no intention of letting herself go down this easily!
Once more, she pops up, aiming to stab that little knife into Schot, and roll back out again. Eyes locked on his challengingly, as though -daring- him to keep this up.

That blade almost reaches Adira; immediately after she landed, she rolled backwards, twice, then stood... to find Eliot readying a blade. Her response/ She stomps her right foot down, blazing, crimson-red chi fire swirling up from sole to calf.
"Didn't I tell you already...?" she asks, rhetorically. She can see the blade coming, almost as if in slow motion. Just at the right moment...
sShe kicks upwards, literally booting the blade away. It's a high front kick, her foot carving an arc from ground to head level, creating a hissing arc of that crimson chi-fire to roar out at Eilot.
"SCUM LIKE YOU DOESN'T BELONG HERE!!!"

As Malin taunts Schot, he just keeps charging on. Especially as she slides out a knife, taking a grip on the handle and stabbing it towards him. "That's what .. you think.. babe." He responds with, before taking the tire.. and as Malin stabs it towards him, bring the entire tire down onto her, quickly. "Just go down already.. ya runt!" Thug is far from happy at this moment and it shows.
This might be it, too. And unfortunately, he pushes himself far too much onto the blade, before collapsing. And just lets go of the tire.
ANd then Eliot tries to leap out of the way, instead, crashing into the blazing crimson energy completely, before falling onto the ground.. he pulls himself up, finally, and brushes himself off.. throwing ANOTHER knife. Towards Malin. "Oh, and you do queenie? Heeheehee. GET OUT!" AND SUDDENLY KNIVES.
He's just going to pull this trick as FAR AS HE CAN.

Malin looks down at the body of Shot as he collapses, and nudges the poor large man with her foot. Well. He'd lasted -far- longer than she would have li--KNIVES!
The girl dives out the way, the knife slicing through the air where she had been moments before. Luckily missing the poor downed 'boss'. She picks herself up again, shaking her head lightly, "Geez!" She declares, shaking her head, "You guys really don't know when to quit, do you?"
The girl takes a deep breath, brushing a stray lock of hair behind her ear, and then pulls -another- sword from about her person. This is dug into the ground, and the girl leans upon it, shaking her head lightly.
"Look buddy. You are goin' to jail, I reckon. And your two buddies. Question is, how carved up are you going to be before you wind up there, you know? Come along quietly an' I'll put in a good word for you. I can pull some strings, right?"

Henh. So he didn't like that, did he. Too bad for him. Adira senses blood on the water--and she's not about to be merciful NOW. Maybe Malin wants to hang back--but Adira does not, not in the least. This punk... this thug... he's going to pay, just like the rest of these Mad Gear thugs. He's going to be knocked the hell out and he's going to go to jail.
And Adira will personally see to it that it happens. With a short, sharp yell, she leaps at Eliot again, her vigor renewed as she takes several steps, hops forward low, lands, then leaps, translating her momentum into a head level roundhouse kick with her right, spinning around in midair to deliver a horizontal crescent kick with the left.
A complicated combination, but one that Adira pulls off with ease, testament to her skills with kicking.

"And I'm gonna do just that! So they ain't able to take you down? No problem'a mine. This just means promotion!" And he runs towards Malin. As Adira runs towards him, Eliot slides out of the way, and straight into the roundhouse kick, a horizontal kick to the left. Well. He's beaten the hell u, but he doesn't avert his gaze, or aim. Running towards Malin and slamming that boot towards her, one more time. "SURPRISE!"
The knife might JUST go off! "HEEHEHEE!"
But he might fall over afterwards.. who knows! Otherwise, he's down, and the goons get to runnin'.

The girl hisses, twirling away irritated as the man collapses shortly afterwards, and then she looks to Adira, and gives her a bright thumbsup.
"Hey! That went pretty well!" She declares, looking around at the downed thugs. She whistles a merry tune, and begins to do something that... Adira /might/ find just the slightest bit objectionable. Namely. She begins to rummage through the unconscious bodies for wallets and money!

Good. That's done. Adira returns th thumbs up... until she sees Malin... mugging the beat up thugs. "HEY!" Walking over, she cuffs Malin upside the head.
"Geez, we just beat these guys up for being punks, don't go doing unnecessary things... 'less you -want- me to beat you up again... C'mon, I'll take you to get a bite to eat, there's a good burger joint around here a couple blocks away." Trying to be a little more gentle about reforming Malin than she was with the punks, at least...
Malin blinks slightly as she is cuffed upside the head. She didn't really see it coming, for some reason. This was just what she -did-. BUT! She's hardly going to miss a beat. Malin? A homeless bum needing to scrounge money off punks she beats up? No! Of course not! Never!
Honest!
There was, of course, a perfectly logical explanation, and its this she gives as she straightens up. Schot's wallet in hand. "Hey! What do you think I am? This is for information gathering, y'know? My organization'll check back on these guys. See where they come from, if they got a history, that sort of thing. See if they can find a common link. I just need their ID first, that's all."
And indeed, she -does- take Schot's ID, if he has any. The fact the wallet would be returned without a dime in it... well... Malin is -very- good at hiding little tricks like that. With a dash of luck Adira wouldn't even notice~
Malin also adds, "But... a burger would be good, yeah. Phew! That was rough!"
