Resisting Arrest
Krrosh, hearing combat, hits a button on one of his pectorals. A tinny speaker begins to play the Mortal Kombat theme.
EY EY EY ERSTWHILE TEAMMATES! WE GOTS OURSELVES A BRAWL!
WAAAAAAAAAGGGGGHH
Gather compatriots with alarm voice, then Slice N' Dice puny future-gun toting policemen!
Oh the things I do for a spirit...
Sarah partially ignored the rowdiness of her compatriots and made her decision.
Utilize the distraction of the moment by my ally and incapacitate the policemen! Use them as shields against each other if possible or redirect their attacks towards each other.
"OH YEAH WELL YOUR MOM IS UGLY. TAKE THISH YOU CRETIN!"
POW! RIGHT IN THE KISSER.
Actually, just two Jabs and a Sweep finisher.
I'm probably using this combo thing wrong.
"I'm afraid the authorities have a tendency to be unreasonable around these parts. How unfortunate," Nurse Akane observes, her eyes beginning to glow as she charges up the laser.
Wait a few moments for the others to perform offensive maneuvers (preferably before the policemen perform theirs, of course). Laser the least harmed policeman (or the most harmed, if they prove to be tough and nobody goes down this turn).
"Yo, and stuff," declares Nigel, "Let me get this, homies. I am on it like a comet. The po po shall feel the biting death of my ninja wrath! No, seriously, check it out."
Seize the initiative, sneak up behind the group of cops, and Shotgun Sneakizzle the rearmost two in the rear!
The Motley Party of Indiscretion launches an attack on the police in a manner reminiscent of the Cheesecake Prison Riot of 2044! [Fun Fact: Millions Died.]
Krrosh Anvilhumper blasts copyrighted fight music from his Window-Apple Nipple Speaker (TM) to give him a boost as he dashes at the pigs, Slicing N' Dicing! His display is like an obnoxious child in the toy aisle of Target, if Target replaced their mockery swords with imported Highlander weaponry. His manic swings don't harm any cops, until one makes a mis-step and the Claymore cuts deep into his Left Forearm through his Police Armor. Krrosh roars at him as he clutches his arm, screaming in pain,
"UR' BLOODY CLOTHES CAN STOP GUNS, BAH' NO ONE CAN STOP THE WRATH A' THA' CLAYMORE! (Except for those damned English Knights.)"While the police wave their weapons angrily and shout at his teammates, MC Nigel creeps out of the bar, toting a Shotgun he obtained from Ad-Hoc-Mart. The Ninja cocks the gun,
"Yo yo yo, 'bout to blast on deez' 5-0." The first shot goes wide, striking a florescent light and nothing else. Fortunately, the Double-Barrel Shotgun Blast emits little more than a gentle whisper. When Nigel lets loose with the other Barrel, he hits a policeman in the back, his armor stopping penetration, but does little to protect him as he flies across the room, slamming into a brick wall face first on the opposite side of the building.
Sarah utilizes the distractions of her fellow fighters to run up to another unharmed Policeman and wraps her arm around his Right Shoulder, going for an Incapacitation. The cop is aware of her intentions however, and when she gets a lock on his elbow, he swings his arm and knocks her to the floor with brute strength, slamming her onto the wooden surface. Sarah is able to avoid getting hurt, but the counter does stun her briefly.
One of the quicker, unharmed policemen is fast on the draw, and gets a shot off from his Square Enix Goya Laser Gun while the perps enact their simultaneous assault. A bright red light zaps across the room and instantly hits MC Nigel right in the left shoulder, causing the ninja to drop his Shotgun and retreat behind the bar, the laser had cut right through his shirt and into the bone.
"THAT SHIT HURT REAL BAD."Nurse Akane scans the policemen and finds that, unfortunately, the combined offensive efforts of her team had not yet taken down a single officer. They were tougher than they looked, a lot having to do with that thick metal armor they had which could absorb a lot of stress and stop penetration. But could it stop a laser? Akane's eyes turn red as she fires off a scathing ray of light at one policeman, who combat rolls underneath the beam, Akane only succeeding in melting part of the wall behind him. He shoots back and is fairly surprised to see his own laser bounce right off her chest.
Rubric Dao lunges the target of Nurse Akane and hits him right in the chest with a quick jab knocking the cop backwards, and follows it up with a much more powerful punch that manages to crack right through the policeman's helmet and strike him square in the jaw! He staggers backwards, giving the Monk enough time to go for a Sweep, which hooks the back of the cop's ankle and sends him crashing to the floor.
Policeman #1 attempts to fire his Square Enix Goya Gun back at Krrosh Anvilhumper in retaliation for cutting into one of his arms, but can only utilize his uninjured hand in aiming the two-handed rifle. Predictably, the shot goes wide, giving Krrosh ample time to come up with insults against the Polceiman's family.
Policeman #2, the only member of his crew who hasn't received a beating, slashing, or any sort of other harm, pulls out a pair of glowing Holo-Cuffs. "Surrender, criminal scum!" He rushes Rubric Dao, who gracefully sidesteps the Policeman who slams into a table booth, falling over and dropping his Holo-Cuffs onto the floor beneath the table. Before he can recover, Rubric seizes him by the ankles and pulls him off the table and slams him onto the wooden floor, stunning him!
Policeman #3 shakily stands after being sent flying via Shotgun blast. He catches the figure of Nurse Akane standing not to far from him, and he rushes her, pulling out his Electro-Baton! He bashes her over the head, which would have sent a normal human to the ground in electric shock, but merely causes Akane to malfunction for a few seconds.
"Seven fork, I'll be and up. You shant can't, rant supply Indonesian drug rats. SYSTEM ERROR, REBOOTING....""Policeman #4 is on the floor after Rubric Dao had just swept him off of his feet. From his position, he draws his gun and fires upon Sarah. The laser beam clips her Left Ear and she falls over from the shock of having an unexpected improv ear piercing session.
