Quoted By:
He makes an awkward half movement, and, realizing he can't do very long swings within the confines of the shop's aisles, he stops a moment. You put up your guard to the sides, and stick your head forward to act as a target. He draws back, raising his pipe up to dome you- perfect!
With a rapid rise; you slam his pipe back- but not to disarm him or hit him directly, just to shove it into the light fixture just above. His metal pipe shatters the glass tube and he shudders in place; electricity coursing through him; your baton material isn't conductive, so you had no risk of shocking yourself with the maneuver. He's hurt badly, but you know there are safety features that prevent such accidents from being fatal; the outlet shuts off in a second and he falls over to the ground, defeated.
You turn to the mafioso in charge, who has since let go of Mister Smith, and taken a step back. His confidence is totally rattled; perhaps not expecting you to so easily defeat his hired muscle.
<span class="mu-b">"Hey! S-Stay back!"</span>
You take a step forward over the unconscious bodies of his guards and muscle; he didn't even bring a weapon. Clearly, he thought his intimidation factor would be enough. At least the Viking backed up his desire to be a ruler with strength...
Popping a half squat, the mafioso shrinks back as you get closer. You almost think he's about to surrender, but don't lower your guard as he suddenly pulls something out with a mechanical click.
