You set your suitcase down and take a step forward, pipe raised and ready to come to your friend's aid when you hear a low thud on the pavement behind you. You react instinctively and spin around, lashing out blindly with your pipe. The intruder, having the look of a frequent brawler with his scarred hands and muscled limbs, handily dodges the unaimed swing. He dashes forward with a low grunt, his fists churning as he sends swing after swing your way. You stagger backwards whilst fending off his blows in desperation. You can't keep this up for long.

You try to butt him using your entire body, but it only ends up bringing the tip of the knife closer to your gut. His mask moves higher on his face as his grin grows wider and he presses all of his strength into pushing the blade towards you. You hear a sound behind you and the sound of a struggle. You can see your opponent's eyes flash upward momentarily, and you choose that moment to step backwards, allowing yourself to fall and pulling him down with you. Partway to the ground you lift your other leg, planting your foot into his chest and knocking the air out of him. You finish the movement, extending your leg and sending him sailing over your head, simultaneously hitting the ground and rolling across your back and onto your hands and knees and turning to face him. He lies a few feet away from you, strangely still, half on the curb and half in the gutter. His body twitches and you scramble to your feet and rush to retrieve your knife from where it clattered to the asphalt. You stoop over and stick him several times, sending warm blood pouring from the wounds to splash your hands and mask. You rise to your feet, wiping the blood from the eyepieces. Your breathing slows and your focus widens, and you suddenly notice Linden having a scuffle with a giant. He won't last long at the rate he's going.
