FLY, YOU FOOLS! [David/Open]

[Delilah A. Black]

She was blasted back with surprising ease thanks to David's Qi. A Delilah shaped hole had imprinted itself into the wall and she coughed, a minute amount of blood leaking from between her lips. The impact with the wall itself hadn't hurt, but the QI sure had. More so than it should have.

Still, it was odd to be fighting without feeling pain at all. This was the first time she had fought after eating that weird fruit Leon had given her...now she started to understand how Mathew was able to not even feel it as she hit his pressure points. She'd have to test this out more later.

Nonetheless, this was AWESOME.

Letting her body relax, Delilah fell off the wall and into a roll, coming up just behind David. If he were to look over his shoulder at her (which may be hard as the other two girls he was fighting seemed to be keeping him busy), he may or may not notice as she brought the electrode-taser thing shaped like a knife across the backs of his legs to deaden his achillies tendons before attempting to sweep his legs out from underneath him.

((OOC: 2/2 Nulls used))

[David B.]

Poor, poor Kiyr.

Going limp in his arms.

Had nobody seen the avengers, when hulk decides to put an end to Loki? Or had they not watched him benchpress a car?

Kiyr, in her attempt to avoid the likely light hit of Rina, would now become his own personal flail. Swinging her viciously, he would attempt to use her body to whip arou d and hit Delilah as she popped out of the wall, turning the next moment to hit Rina with the blonde. Then he would smash her into the ground twice, breathing heavily.

At least, that was the idea. The force at which he would swing her would make it very difficult to tighten up again, and the stress would likely rip ligaments in her tiny little frame. Once complete, he would pounce for Delilah, intent on punishing her next.

OOC: I WANTED TO DO THIS SO BAD

[Kyrie Blaze]

Kyrie couldn't do much with being whacked into Delilah, or Rina, after letting her body go limp. As much as it hurt and winded her, she didn't want to tear her muscles and ligaments more. She gave soft grunts and cries with the impacts, but couldn't do anything until he started to smash her into the ground.

Dizzy, disoriented, and in no small amount of pain, the first slam worked to a T, but with the second, Kyrie completely disappeared into her own shadow before being sucked into David's as her own disappeared. It wasn't done consciously, but unconsciously and instinctively to save herself from pain. As David turned for Delilah, Kyrie would appear once again, breathing heavily from a prone position on the ground after tumbling several feet, considering how fast David could move.

She couldn't hold her focus to stay within the shadows.

[Marcus Prasad]

"DYNAMIC FUCKING ENTRY!"

Suddenly a Massive shape would come crashing down like a comet, aiming straight for Davids head. A Massive shape that looked quite suspiciously like a certain long haired, mischevious eyed, Smiling wolf wrapped up in a leather Bomber Jacket and Dark brown cargo pants. The impact would create a shockwave outwards that would kick up a thick dust cloud, obscuring both men for a moment.

As the dust cloud eventualy cleared, Marcus and David would be
revealed with Marcus standing straight and firm atop of Davids head with one foot hooked behind the other and his arms crossed, his mouth set in a stiff chinned grimace with his eyes locked dead ahead. Suddenly he would take a deep breath and shoot a finger straight up into the air.

"FOR GREAT JUSTICE! UNHAND THE WOMENFOLK YOU FIEND!"

[Rina Vade]

Poor Kyire!

Maybe going limp hadn't been such a good idea after all.

Rina moved to put herself in front of the girl as she re-appeared from the shadows. David was good, dammit. She stood her ground as he went to attack Delilah, wondering on her next move, when suddenly...

"Dynamic fucking entry!"

Was that Marcus? The raven-haired girl watched with wide eyes as her old friend and parkour teacher jumped down from...somewhere...and kicked David down by his head. What he said next made her blink.

And then she was on the ground laughing her ass off.

Dynamic entry for sure! "Oh my God, Marcus, you are frickin' hilarious!" she laughed.

OOC- Unable to move due to extreme laughter XD

[Kyrie Blaze]

Kyrie reacted immediately to the shout. Despite the pain and being disoriented, she drew a sharp breath in and used the pain to roll into a crouch and look for the source to ensure she wasn't the one being Dynamic Entry'd. Her hand passed into her own shadow as she pushed up, and she adjusted her grip on the weapon she had pulled out; she held it to be concealed as she rose to her feet completely, pressed against her arm, both hands fisted. She swayed slightly, then adjusted her stance to something wider.

She wasn't, it turned out.

Unlike Rina's reaction, however, the blonde's was on edge, keen, and watching with hooded yet bright blue eyes. Her stance, protective. True David had just been beating soundly on her, but she swapped so quickly it even surprised herself. She wasn't sure if this Marcus had any idea what was going on...

...but if David was seriously hurt from that attack, she would ensure the rather striking man paid for it. And she'd do it before the Voice of the Storm Dragon potentially tore into her or David, as she was the only other Dragon on the scene, despite the injuries she had already sustained and strained anew.

"Marcus, please move away from the Storm Dragon immediately."

Low, level, but audible, and deadly calm. There was a peculiar sort of stillness to the girl that, even now, looked to be too young and even innocent to harm someone in earnest... Marcus and any other seasoned fighter there could probably know it was the silent stillness of a predator. Watching, waiting, gauging if she had to and when she would strike, and how best to potentially take the threat out. Her eyes were still somewhat wide, and she was attempting to keep tabs on the entire situation so she couldn't be surprised by anyone. She had been in a similar situation before...but there was a difference, here.

She realized that Rina obviously knew him, and he was her friend at least, but that wouldn't stop her from going toe to toe with him.

The blonde had a habit of showing her trust in odd ways, ways most people didn't normally pick up on. Previously when she had DYNAMIC ENTRY'd Leon in his fight with Mathew and David, she had let her life hang solely in their hands; even during her 'spar' with David, she told him more than she truly wanted to admit. And now this.

Girl had a lot of guts.

[David B.]

OOC: technically, it is Delilahs turn, but ill post for Marcus' attack, and new post order which is: Me, Delilah, Marcus, Rina, Kiyr.

IC:

David felt the air above him shifting as Marcus came down, about half a second before his feet planted on his head. Unable to support the tremendous force of Marcus' weight at falling speed, Davids face was thrown into the concrete, chips of cement thrown up around his head, a cut opening on his left cheek and on the top right corner of his forhead.

He had no idea who this was attacking him, unfortunately for Marcus.

((SHOULD MARCUS DO AS KIYR ASKS RIGHT AWAY))

As Marcus stepped off him, he would rolled over, massaging his jaw as he looked at The man who pushed his face earthside. He coughed before giving a chuckle.

"Cute."

David would then slap his hand to the ground, sending five hunks of rubble that Rina and Kiyrs body had made flying for Marcus from every direction with air. At the same time, he would rush in Delilahs direction, aiming to plant the palm of his right hand on her chest, gripping the shirt there. Using his left hand he would make to grab the front of her belt. He would then turn and attempt to hurl her bodily at the hopefully distracted Marcus.

If it worked, he would rush Kiyr, bringing up a fist as though to strike her- only to pause and plant his hand gently on the side of her neck, his thumb along her jawline- almost flirtatiously,as he leaned in and whispered in her ear, quickly.

"Thanks. I'm alright though."

He would then flip over her and aim a downward kick for Rinas head.

((SHOULD MARCUS REFUSE TO MOVE))

David, not knowing who was attacking him, would assumed the force was hostile. Wind would blast the windows out around them and float the glass in the air, forming a circle of sharp shards around the young Blaze.

The idea was simple. Whoever you are, move, or become a human pin cushion.

((Hope this works!))

[Delilah A. Black]

((OOC: This is assuming Marcus doesn't get off David's head, and then does after seeing the glass pointed at him, in which case would initiate the part where Marcus got off David's head. Please lemme know if you guys need edits))

It took a few simple dodges to get out of the way of David's wild swings of his mighty ragdoll hammer, she winced visibly as the blonde girl was bashed into the ground...and then vanished.

Her eyes widened in surprise. The little waif had a Qi? THAT was a bit of a shock! Had she known that the young woman was Mathew's apprentice, she may not have been so surprised. Plus, the whole disappearing into shadow thing? Talk about jeaaaaalous. It would be way easier to be a ninja with that sort of ability.

She readied herself as David came at her again, zappy little contraption at the ready. There was no frikken way she was gonna let what happened to the poor blonde girl happen to her, shadows or no.

And then Marcus flew in from out of nowhere, landing on David and damn near caving his skull in. Though it would probably take a helluvalot more to take out the Dragon, she couldn't help but wince.

"Oh my God, Marcus, you are frickin' hilarious!"

"Marcus, please move away from the Storm Dragon immediately."

Delilah glanced up, looking towards the shaky looking blonde girl. She tilted her head to the side as she peered at the curious girl with sharp blue eyes, scrutinizing her and the feeling emanating from her. The waif was not to be trifled with it would seem. Her eyes narrowed and a slight smile curved her lips.

Interesting.

There was a gust of wind and the glass floated up, pointed at Marcus threateningly. Not surprising, but she nevertheless felt herself bristle as well, both at the blonde's threat and the perilously perched glass. But she held her tongue. She was more than certain this would not lead to a gang war. She wouldn't let it.

"I think you're best suited at defending our honor from ground level, Marcus." she called to him with a light laugh in her voice. Once he stepped off, she would ready herself for what was inevitably going to happen next.

"Cute"

Uh-ooooh...

His hand hit the ground and she heard the stone lifting, saw it out of her peripheral vision. But she wasn't focused on that (though she was aware of it), paying attention to David as he...PLANTED HIS PALM IN THE CENTER OF HER CHEST.

She had just enough time to give him a concerned look that said Why is it always the boobs with you? just as she flicked her zappy-electro-taser knife along the tendon controlling his forearm to numb it as he grabbed her.


The next second, she was airborne, sailing towards Marcus, where-ever he was. Ah, throws. She was light enough to get tossed around an awful lot. But she had been thrown enough times to know what to do with it.

She somersaulted in mid-air, touching her hands briefly to Marcus's shoulders (or one of the boulders if he was buried under them) to hand spring off him and forward again to land on her feet. The second her feet touched the ground, she was off, using the full extent of her considerable speed (which still paled in comparison to David's) to close the gap, just as he completed his kick for the brunette girl's head. She slid past him like a runner sliding into home, aiming another 'cut' for the leg that carried his weight, as she attempted to take out his Achilles tendon. A roll would put her back on the balls of her feet, crouched slightly in a knife fighters position, grinning wildly.

[Levi Kayamei]

Levi watched from the roof of the gym, finishing a cup of hot cocoa from the cafe. He had heard something and came to investigate to see a brawl taking place. Marcus having already used dynamic entry foiled his entrance. He let out a loud sigh and hopped down as he scanned the "battlefield."

Well, I suppose it's too late for a dynamic entry, I suppose this will have to do.....

Levi was merely following the social protocol that was used when entering these sorts of fights as he rushed behind Delilah and brought his fist up by his face, shaking it.

"Falcon.......PUNCH!!!!"

He released a flash of light as his punch reached its' target. Having fought with Delilah once before, he had no reason to believe this attack would actually connect, but Levi attributed his behavior to bad influence from his master and the earth dragon.

Gotta stop hanging out with those two....

[Orion]

Orion would be wandering Barker territory, simply scouting, when he hears the sound of battle. Turn corner and...

Brawl yo?

It seemed like a massive brawl between... Rina, Marcus, Delilah, and one other person versus... someone else? No, two someones, someone was charging to hit Delilah in the back of the head. Well, Orion had always wanted to test Rina... Oh well. Leaning his weapon against a nearby wall, he would assume a sprinter's stance.

Let's go

"Rina get up!"

Orion would shout this as he began to sprint in her direction. If she didn't get up and remained on the ground, he would stay low to the ground and tackle her as best as he could, pretty much rolling the two across the ground a fair distance.

If she listened and got up, Orion would suddenly stop directly in front of her and swing all of his momentum into an uppercut at her chin, with a shout after hearing the Falcon Punch...

"SHORYUKEN!"

[Kazuya Hikari]

Theme Song: Super Smash Bros Brawl - Main Menu Theme

Perched on top of a nearby abandoned but intact building, balancing on the fronts of his feet, was Kazuya, appearing like a gargoyle that was very clearly out of place. Dressed in his usual karate jacket and pants, aside from his cross necklace, ring, and footguards, Kazuya had left all his toys back home, in a new dojo, this one actually in relatively good shape. There would be no Dynamic Entry or Falcon Punches or Street Fighter for Kazuya, no, instead, he would slowly disappear from sight, until...

"SUIKAGO!"

A shout could heard, followed by what appeared to be a flame blast leaping off the edge of a rooftop, and somersaulted, before landing on the ground with a loud boom. Rocketing towards the fighters gathered on the battlefield, once he was within range, he'd throw a flame-engulfed punch at the person that was nearest to him... whoever that was.

[Rina Vade]

OOC- Mwhahahaha!! This is FUN.

Soon, Rina realized that this battle was turning into an all out brawl. What fun!

Finally over her laughing fit, the ocean-eyed girl began to stand, when she suddenly heard a shout. "Rina, get up!" it was Orion. And he'd decided to join the battle! And David was attacking as well. Quickly, she rose and back-flipped out of his range, dodging the punch Orion sent her way.

"Look what the cat dragged in." she grinned, settling into a defensive stance.

[Marcus Prasad]

{OOC} HOLY FUCKBALLS THIS JUST TURNED 50 SHADES OF AWEOME!

Also just so you guys know, Del and I are assuming this is set AFTER the events of War drums. So there's gonna be a noticable change in dynamics between Marcus and Delilah ;3 {OOC}

HEADCOUNT TIME!
Marcus looked down, noticing for the first time it was David Blaze whom he was standing upon. Confused, he looked up and his eyes went wide when he recognized Delilah and Rina!
With a big enthusiastic toothy smile, he would raise and hand high in the air and wave vigorously at them

"ALLO LADIES!"

"Oh my God, Marcus, you are frickin' hilarious!"

Feeling mighty pleased with himself, Marcus gave a low sweeping bow, that giant smile never leaving his face. Well, that is until he heard a quiet voice.
"Marcus, please move away from the Storm Dragon immediately."
The man immedialy bristled at the familier use of his name. Marcus wasen't a stick up his ass type by any means, but he never did like it when other people knew his name when he knew nothing about them. The fact that she was essentialy eyeballing him also meant that she was either very brave, or increadibly stupid. The animal brain inside his head pulled at it's chains and roared under the young woman's predatory gaze.

It was a challenge, plain and simple. Unfortunatly for her, she was challenging an Alpha wolf.
Holding her gaze, Marcus' lips pulled back into a vicious smile.
"And who the fuck might you b-"

CRAAAAAAAASH!

Oh RIIIIIGHT! He was still standing on someones head!
Watching as deadly shards of glass came rocketing towards him, Marcus looked about himself with a snarl before leaping off of Davids head, which also had the unfortunate effect of driving his face FURTHER into the ground as he pushed off, flipped and twisted upsidedown in midair and landed in a crouch between the ladies and David.

So what the hell was this? David, Rina, Delilah and some gutsy little hobbit in the middle of Barker territory? What the hell did he just stumble feet first into?

"Cute."

WHO CARES! BOULDERS!

Boulders which Marcus was able to dodge and block until they simply overwhelmed and buried him. By the time he managed to free his upper half after nearly exhausting himself, Delilah had been launched towards him. With a cry of surprise he brought his hands up as her foot slapped into his open palms, sending them both back a few feet before he let her use him as a springboard.

"Having fun there luv?"
He would say with a wolfish smile before taking off after her. His blood was singing now, his entire body felt electrified with the thrill of open combat. Now he would experiance the twin joy of fighting alongside a Woman he was quite fond of, and a young lady he hoped would one day reach his level of badassery.

"Falcon.......PUNCH!!!!"

Marcus snarled and bared his fangs at the sight of some stranger trying to sneak attack his Sweetmeat. Jumping into a flat out sprint, Marcus would try to tackle the stranger before he had a chance to connect his blow, wrap his arms around the mans waist from behind and immediatly suplex him, flinging him backwards and driving his head into the ground.

'MARCUS SMASH PUNY STRANGER!'

[Kyrie Blaze]

. o O ( Because Rina already went...I'll make my move, now. ^^; )

The petite blonde found herself staring into the eyes of a fellow predator. And just as she noted the subtle shift of his posture, and just as he started speaking, the glass shards ripped forwards and he moved off of David. Things seemed to move in slow motion as Marcus flipped off David and was buried under boulders, and David dashed off to Delilah.

However, everything whirled into regular speed as David turned and moved fowards her. Her eyes widened, just a little, but she couldn't move in time. She knew she couldn't. But she started to collapse back, only to be stopped at his hand at the back of her neck, his thumb upon her jaw. Her eyes shot wide, confused and shocked and almost pained at the gentle touch. But it wasn't a physical pain. She swallowed hard and let him flip over top of her to go attack Rina, and she used the time to regain her senses and survey the field of battle.

With Levi making his entrance and Marcus retaliating, Kyrie's demeanor shifted once again, but she noted Kazuya and Orion, the former of which was heading straight for her. With a wince and a short huff of pain, she crouched and disappeared into her own shadow, leaving Kazuya to burst ahead above her, and she reappeared a second later with no other shadow to sustain her.

She wound up on the ground on her butt, and painfully scrambled to her feet, gaze darting as she strafed away from David, Rina, and Orion behind her. She wasn't in time to help Levi, and for now about the only thing she could do was to reset herself, and she looked over to Delilah.

"Delilah!"

She knew David. While she wasn't a Dragon, and Kiyr didn't automatically trust her despite her standing with David - nothing had been proven to her so far about the woman's character - she gestured to Marcus in his tangle with Levi, an eyebrow rising slowly.

In question.

She mouthed three words.

Is Marcus okay?

Everything inside of her was screaming for her to take the heat off of Levi--defend, protect, aid, even though he had kind of come to David's aid, considering the side of the fight he was on. But still. Even so. She couldn't just toss aside instinct so easily unless she knew it was at least marginally safe to do so.

If she was given the affirmative, she would resume her attack on David, rushing to dive at the back of his legs with her bottom lip firmly clamped between her teeth to stifle the sound of pain. If she connected, she would twist and hopefully flip David onto his back...and disappear beneath him, into their combined shadows.

...and attempt to hold it despite the pain.

[David B.]

((OOC: Oh dear mother of God.

Alright you dicks. In order to control the possible chaose of this new rumble in Barkers jungle, we are gonna have a post order AS FOLLOWS:

Me, Delilah, Levi, Orion, Kazuya, Rina, Marcus, Kiyr, Me again.

Now shape up assholes. We aint even at halftime yet.))

IC:

David, upon his kick catching nothing, would turn and step on the edge of the electro blade Delilah was using. Ignoring the pain that shot into that foot, he would immediately kick with his other leg- right at Delilahs head, like it was a soccer ball. Turning after that, he would aim catch Kazuyas flaming fist, Kiyr having vanished and leaving him in the mans path. He would tilt his head a little.

"Havent we done this already?"

Tossing aside the mans his, he would keep his other hand near his chest, palm facing Kazuya. Like a scream, wind would blast from his hand, right for Kazuyas chest. Then a spin back to Delilah, when-

Wam. Kiyr planted him on his ass.

....what? He cant be literally everywhere at once.

Sheesh.
