Ancient Dwarven Techniques
Sarah instinctively drew a hand to feel the cooling hole in her ear. Exactly at the lobule. It took only a split-thought to brush away any anger welling up in her, due to one single thought.
I hate earrings.
"I never wore earrings."
Move to choke and disarm the one that shot at me, utilizing any cover to...throw off his aim, or in the least distract him (throw at him?)
"AY WATCH IT YA LITTLE SHIT." he yells at the policeman he just stunned.
He appears to be sobering up a bit, even if he is still absolutely irate, he can now form coherent sentences.
On to Cop #2, Low-Kick three times, finishing with a spinning hook.
“Comrades! I think these pigs are bringing some ruckus! Let us deliver some harder ruckus into their innards!”
Darkness Chainsaw the nearest enemy in the guts! Then duck and try to blend in to some black sheets or something to prepare for a sneak attack.
"I suppose it would be wise to upgrade your threat classification, officers," Nurse Akane notes.
Spread Laser on Policemen 1, 2, 3 if possible. If one of them is dead already, shoot another one. If two are dead, hit random one with an ordinary laser.
Krrosh snaps out of his fugue!
Headbutt nearest police officer in the nuts, then chop his face!
Krrosh Anvilhumper snaps out of his daydreams consisting of anvils and humping, and charges Policeman #1, maneuvering into a flying somersault attack. This sends Krrosh flying over his target and he slams head-first through a window, shattering the glass and landing on the other side. Fortunately, he's relatively unharmed. The cop makes his way to Krrosh with a Baton drawn, and utilizes his powers of Police Brutality! He bashes Krrosh, but the Dwarf goes into the fetal position and absorbs the brunt of the force with his meaty forearms and thigh muscles.
MC Nigel recovers from the immediate shock of his injury and vaults over the bar, and seeing how Rubric had thrown Policeman #2 onto the floor, makes him his new target. The ninja pulls out his Darkness Chainsaw and leaps at the lawman,
Leatherface'ing him right in the stomach. The police-grade armor is no match for the spinning teeth of the industrialized death machine and soon the floor is soaked in blood, Nigel receiving the group's official first kill.
Sarah, after realizing that she had been shot, reaches over for to a spare glass beer bottle on the ground and chucks it at Policeman #4. The bottle shatters across his leg, the force and glass deflected by his metal armor. He looks at Sarah, and beneath his faceplate she can tell he's probably not amused. He reloads his Goya Gun, but Sarah uses this brief window of time to rush at him and kick him square in the chest. He flies back, losing the grip on his firearm and slamming into the wall. Before he can slump down to the ground, Sarah presses her right forearm against his neck, one of the few parts of his body not armored. He struggles, trying to pull Sarah's arm away, when she takes her left hand and slams his head against the wall, effectively bludgeoning his skull with the back of his metal helmet; he finally falls over knocked out cold.
Nurse Akane's system resets eyes glow red as she approaches the police like some sort of Terminator. She fires a laser at Policeman #1, who ducks just in time for the shot to incinerate the dart board behind him, rather than his head.
Policeman #3 turns around just in time for Rubric Dao to begin kicking the shit out of him. His triple low-kick assault causes the cop to buckle over, setting him up for a Spinning Hook. The punch lands straight on the hardest part of the Policeman's helmet, and Dao's strength and technique does not manage to connect through inches of reinforced steel.
As the two remaining Policemen raise their guns with the intent to fire, a wiry, older Chinese man in a suit runs down the stairs from the upper floor and pulls out two Revolvers, firing upon the police. Whatever his bullets are made out of, they puncture straight through the police armor and the two cops crumple to the floor. The shooter, infuriated, runs down the stars, berating the Party. "LOOK AT WHAT YOU MADE ME DO, UNCLE WILL KILL ME! EVERYONE OUT OF THE BAR, NOW!" He says, firing into the ceiling.

Slap the dwarf
Johnny Johnson the 3rd slaps the rescued Drunk Dwarf, whose face turns red. "AVENGE ME." He then uses the ancient technique of punching Johnny Johnson in the balls and running away.
