As he felt Tak grab David wrist with his opposite hand, He had this frowning moment. Why cross your guard? To David, it seemed it would throw off the balance, especially since Tak didn't stop him from palming his chin and throwing off his equilibrium. As Tak grabbed Davids wrist, David did the simplest thing he could do. He reduced the pressure on Takehiros chin, and bent his elbow by moving a little closer. This would negate the strength of the arm grab, and instead of punching a straight arm and doing damage, Tak would punch Davids bent elbow. It likely wouldn't hurt David too much, and might do some serious damage to this big man. Still, the whip would hurt, causing David to grit his teeth. He already had a plan, however, for close combat. With his free hand, he would palm Taks chest, at the same time his left leg would hook behind Taks knee. Then, he'd push, blasting Tak with wind as well. This move, called the Reap was aimed at Taks destabilized center of mass with the point of putting the big guy to the ground. |

- Thankfully, the impact from punching the bent elbow wasn't too great, thanks to his plated gloves and the whip giving some extra "padding," but it was still highly awkward, and it left his hand numb for a moment. He was stalled, so the palm and the blast of wind pushed him successfully, and he did fall back from the hooked leg. Despite the pain, however, his grip on David's wrist would be maintained, and he aimed to pull the Dragon to the ground with him. While he did so, he loosened enough of the whip that he would attempt to wrap it around David's neck, reattaching the other end to his body and pulling, putting him in an electric choke-hold.

Good man. Pull his wrist. He would find little to no resistance, however. With Tak falling, David definitely wanted in on the ground game, so he would follow him to the floor. Tak would likely change his game plan from the whip, however, as David would immediately switch gears. Standing game was very different from his floor game. He knew he had never fought Tak before- for Mathew, Kiyr, Olesya, Leon and Mitsuki...well, pretty much everyone he fought knew that Davids base and background relied heavily on jujitsu. So, as they would go down, David would spin, his free hand coming down to grip the wrist of the hand that held his left arm. He brought it up between his legs as he would flatten onto his back to the right of Tak. He flexed his abs, pushing up on his hips with Taks elbow on his pelvis. At the same time he pulled down hard on the wrist...with the intent of snapping Taks good arm like a twig. That was the power of the arm bar. |

- David's attack would go through as he'd hoped. With the pain he's been dealt thus far, it was almost impossible to fight back against the move, and, as much as he would struggle to save his good arm, there was very little he could do. However, the whip-hand would move for David's ankle, looking to crush it. His thumb would press between the ankle and the tendon, looking to sever it, as well as send out a crippling shock in that area, which - if it worked - should effectively take out one of David's legs. He let out a small yelp, but otherwise only gritted his teeth as he felt his wrist snap, but his grip on the ankle would not loosen.
- Behind David, the rocks and wind would once again take the form of the golem, though it was not yet fully manifested.
[OoC: Major injuries sustained thus far: Shattered right shoulder, broken left wrist.
Qi manifesting.]

As Tak grabbed Davids Ankle, intent to crush it, he would find that Davids body seemed like Granite. Breaking it would feel almost impossible, especially with Taks current leverage and the application of the arm bar. David felt bone break, so would release the arm and roll backward off Tak...only to collapse to a knee. The fuck?
He glanced down at his foot...rather flaccid. Anything on him being Flaccid was not something he was used to. Then it clicked. the damn whip. With his adrenaline kicked in and his bodies durability, he hadn't expected any damage to his legs. But the whip was electric, and numbed his ankle. He bared his teeth. Using wind, he'd wrap his foot like a second skin, now controlling his foot through the use of his wind Qi, so he could move like normal.
David would turn and grab the bench behind him, ripping it out of the ground, turning and swinging it like a baseball bat.
OOC:
David loses his Wind Qi for 4 posts. Ankle is numb for 2.

- Takehiro would have gripped his now wrecked elbow and wrist, had his opposite shoulder not been destroyed, as well. Instead, he painfully forced himself up without the use of either arm, and he'd attempt to put enough distance between himself and the Dragon.
- David would find his strike impacting a wall of stone, which shattered and quickly reformed at Takehiro's back, creating armor around his torso and serving to give him four extra arms to utilize, made entirely of wind and stone. Takehiro approached David, and two of the four arms reached out, jabbing at David's stomach in quick succession.
[OoC: Left arm unusable. Right arm use is limited.]

Davids eyes narrows as the armor took over Taks form. Fortunately, David could read this Guys power level, thanks to his contacts, and they gave him the idea that this guy...probably wasn't as adept in Qi as him. He was probably feeling the burn using his energy so much, and David...well, David and his mask felt right as rain.
He jumped backward, and as his feet hit the ground, David would gain body armor of his own...full body armor. Stone shifted up over his body, and to make things interesting, he gave himself the same four arms. As Tak moved in, Two stone arms would clasp hand to hand in Taks, so the grabbing the man was trying to do would be stoped.
David, meanwhile, would start throwing blow after blow after blow for Taks exposed chest, intent to shatter stone and bone alike.

- David's blows would swat away Takehiro's armor like nothing, as it was clear he was much more skilled with this ability. There was already a single, small layer of stone left between Takehiro's chest and David's armor, when Takehiro sent his other two arms in toward David's head, their tips rotating like drills. His hopes were that they'd run through the armor, but he knew that was far-fetched.
- Whether or not the drill attack worked, Takehiro's own armor would have been destroyed and he could feel his chest getting wrecked, and he fell to the floor, breath heaving. He, personally, seemed to be out of the battle. His ally, however, made one last-ditch effort to harm the Elder, and continued the drill.

The drills hit his stone armor, kicking up dust and rock. David pulled the stone from his lower body up and over the drills and pulled down, aiming to snap them clean off the throw them to the ground.
If it was done, and the beast slipped away, David would walk over to Taks body, standing over it.
"Would you like to know the feeling of being left, without pride and with a snapped back, while your enemy takes off? Perhaps you were worried of repercussions. Perhaps you didn't want us to kill you. I understand the politics. But the law of the warrior should have told you otherwise. Unless you meant, of course, to offend."
David would bend, and attempt to lift Takehiros body as though he planned to bring him down on his knee and snap the mans back. Instead, he would slam him down into the concrete, aiming to put him under and possibly break other bones, just not his back. Davids point was made. If it didn't put Tak out cold, David would aim to stomp on the mans face...intent to KO him that way.

- Takehiro's Qi would wither, the stones falling to the ground and the glowing wind fading into what seemed to be nonexistence. The giant was left unprotected, something he'd not experienced in all his life. He had never been broken by another, in all his time as a warrior. He'd never fought a single person who could break him, make him feel utterly helpless in battle, and along came David Blaze. It may have been a little dark, but he couldn't help but smile at the thought, blood dripping from his lips as he did so.
- As David lifted his body, Takehiro could not protest. He would be in the air, at David's will. And as David threw him to the ground, the ground would crack underneath him, dislocating his good shoulder and shattering his good elbow, rendering both his arms useless, not to mention the overall muscle pain that would come from it. He was out cold.
- "Boss! No!" Zeke ran back into the scene as Takehiro's body hit the floor. He charged at David, putting forth his best battle cry as he launched his right fist for David's face. He knew he couldn't do a damn thing, but he couldn't just sit around and watch. "If I was stronger, I could do something!"

David turned, his mask peeling away (CHA back to 133) as this man punched him in the face. His head turned a little to the side from it, but he just turned and looked back at the fellow.
"I respect your courage."
He would reach out and flick the fellow in the chest, forcing a cushion of air to blast off the end. Not enough to do serious damage, but enough to lift the guy off his feet and send him ten or twenty feet back before hitting the ground and probably rolling a ways. David would wait for him to at least sit up.
"What I did to your boss, I could do to you, but faster and much worse. My fight is not with you, however, and my fight with him his over. He needs a hospital, and we have the only one within ten miles. Your...friend, and boss, needs someone to carry him. You will have to do it."
He waited, watching the male.

- Zeke let out a shriek as his body flew back a bit, and he rolled over to his feet, wide-eyed and surprised. He raced back to David, intent on punching his face a second time, but he stopped, and the words he spoke seemed to be extremely logical. "Tak's down, Arden," he told his friend, simply nodding and hoisting the giant's arm over his shoulder. He was heavy as fuck, but he had to manage. "After - shit - after you, man."
- Arden stood from his seat in the cafe and just began pacing, anxious as to what would happen next.

David would lead the two of them back to the wall, through the gate and toward the hospital. Once there, the Dragons would take the broken man and lay him on a crash cart, steering him toward a room. David, Zeke would notice, was gone as they arrived, and Zeke would be allow to follow Tak if he so chose.
Arden, meanwhile, would note several men come into the room with bows drawn.
"Time to go."
If he didn't resist, they would lead him to the hospital as well, to meet up with Zeke and the downed Takehiro.

- Zeke would follow the guys taking his boss, entirely skeptical, but a little more at ease, considering they could have already killed the guys if they really wanted to. Arden, meanwhile, made no attempts to resist, and followed quietly to where they'd kept the big man.
- "Holy shit. That guy from the cafe - he did this?" Zeke nodded. "Where'd he go?" Zeke shook his head. He simply sat by Takehiro's side, cursing the situation. They couldn't have just come for this.

After about an hour, David returned with all his gear on, and his outfit...the military had gone back to their posts, and David didn't seemed worried at all to be in the room with them. Tak would be wrapped in bandages, and have an IV in his arm along with casts on both. Davids knuckles were a little bruised, but otherwise seemed okay.
"Tell me why you originally came here."
He was speaking to the other two, rather than the KOd Tak.
