Ch28.Fight Scene.

I quickly activated my 'Greater Comprehension' Rune so that I have a better awareness of my surroundings, I don't want to have anyone enter any of my blind spots, 'It would suck to literally be stabbed in the back!'.

After that I activated my 'Camouflage' Rune to make me look like a humanoid panther, unfortunately It doesn't actually give me sharp teeth and claws, but the visual impact along with the fact that the ends of my fingers and my teeth actually look sharp, can be used to distract my enemies and create openings for me to take advantage of.

After that I can see that all the gangsters are freaked out, they subconsciously back up a bit and say "What the fuck are you!!", seeing as though I start charging at the guy closest to me, they quickly regain composure and start rushing at me with their weapons. Since I reacted faster I arrived at the guy closest to me and fake out a slash to his stomach, as he backed away to dodge the slash I spun around and hit him with a roundhouse kick in the stomach. Without waiting to see if that was effective, as he bent over dropping his weapon and grabbing his stomach, I quickly grab his head with both of my hands and knee him in the face with enough force to send him flying up before falling down and collapsing to the ground.

After finishing this guy, another appears behind me thrusting out with a pipe spear, I quickly twist my body around and try to dodge to the side but he bursts through my shirt creating a large gash in my side. I look down and see the blood and just grin, clenching my muscles to try and stop the bleeding. I laugh madly and say, as I grab his spear and I step in close to him, "This shit is starting to get entertaining!!". After that I went in to punch him right in the gut, he quickly drops the spear and tries to block, but I just switch my hand from a fist to an open hand and grab his arms that are trying to block. I then push him back, causing him to lose balance before kicking him right between the legs, causing him to squeal in pain and drop to the floor.

After that I had the remaining 6 guys surrounding me, I just grinned and dashed for the smallest guy and tackled him out of the circle. After that I rolled over him, quickly getting up before smashing my foot into his face and rushing towards the closest guy who was chasing me with a bat. He slammed the bat towards me, I quickly put my left arm up to guard the strike before punching him in the face, I then grabbed his ear and pulled down ripping part of his ear off. He just screamed in pain, dropped to the ground grabbing his bleeding, dangling ear.

By this time one of the remaining four guys had slashed at my back with his sword, I reacted quickly, trying to dodge the strike, unfortunately I was too slow and he slashed right into my left shoulder leaving a deep bleeding gash. "HAHAHAH good! This wouldn't be fun if it was too easy!". I used the opening he left while his sword was down to jump forward and headbutt him in the nose, after that I kneed him in the gut and soccer kicked his head as soon as he dropped to the ground, causing him to roll over on the ground, bleeding and out cold.

While I did that, I was smashed in the back of the head with a long stick by a tall chubby guy with only one eye, while being cut on the leg by a short skinny guy who used two daggers to constantly run in to attack and then dash away as soon as I reacted or tried to retaliate.

After taking the hit to the head I got a bit pissed off and dashed towards the chubby guy, the skinny guy used this opportunity to slash my waist but I didn't care, I just clenched my muscles trying to tank as much damage as I could. I stepped forward just before the chubby guy, I twisted around and elbowed him right in the temple. He swayed for a bit after that before dropping to the ground like a rock, I continued the twist and as the skinny guy was coming in for another attack I kicked him in the head with a twist and then elbowed him in the side of the neck as he was falling down.

'Haaaaa ... haaaaa ... haaaaaa' I breathed heavily as I watched the last guy. This was the biggest guy, almost as muscular as me, but definitely taller. He didn't do much during the fight, he mostly observed from the side as if he wasn't worried at all. He just looked at me and said "Well done!! You took out most of my guys, that was impressive indeed. Unfortunately you are tired now and I am much stronger than those guys, how about you work for me?"

I just looked at him and grinned "You are stronger? Great!! Those guys were boring as hell, lets go bitch!" I laughed as I launched myself at him, he just sighed before breathing in deeply and spitting out flames, I was caught off guard by that but reacted swiftly and jumped back quickly while ripping off my vest that was currently on fire. After getting back I looked at him and asked "You are a fucking Circle mage? Why are you here running a weak little gang?".

He looked at me and sighed, saying "I'm not a Circle mage, I am like you, I know a few Runes but I haven't been able to learn enough to create a circle." I laughed at that, looked up at the sky and realised that it is already quite dark out, I grinned and shouted "Then the fight can go on, let's fight fucker!" I said as I dashed towards him, he sighed again before breathing in deeply again. This time I paid special attention to him and just when he was about to breath out, I quickly jumped down into my shadow space and waited a couple seconds before jumping out and dashing towards the stunned big guy and smashing him in the face. He recovered after the hit barely moving before he then sighed again before he created a rune on each of his fists and feet, they then suddenly caught on fire. He then kicked forward towards my stomach.

I dodged and went back in to hit him again, we went back and forth a few times but he clearly had the advantage, every one of his hits would burn my skin causing me a great amount of pain, but my hits didn't seem to do much to him, it seems he has some sort of defense magic active, I had to constantly jump into my shadow space to dodge his fire breath and it seems he was getting used to my rhythm, understanding that I don't move much after entering and exiting my space. I looked around and some of the other guys were recovering. 'This is bad, I have to finish this quickly!'.

I guess I will have to go dirty, I jumped out of my shadow space and forced my way through the almost completed fire breath, this badly burnt my skin but I gritted my teeth and approached him and made a posture that looked like I was about to punch him in the face, he sighed again and said "Don't you learn, your hits don't affect ...". His sentence was cut short because I changed my hand from a fist to a peace sign and stabbed my fingers straight into his eyes, I then bent my fingers and gouged his eyes out.He started screaming in pain and backed up while the fire on his hands and feet went out, I didn't let this opportunity pass and I went behind him and put him in a choke hold, squeezing as tightly as I could before he passed out.

By this time some of the other gang members were up and just looked at me in shock, I was exhausted, breathing heavily while blood was dripping from all over my body, I had burns over a large area of my upper body and I was struggling to stand up straight. I still grinned and said "You guys want some more?"

------------------------------------

So this is the first time I have written a 'fight scene', what do you think? Was it too long, hard to follow or was there anything off you picked up?

If so please let me know your thoughts as this will help me when planning for next time.

On a side not I also considered making him lose this fight as MC's that win at everything are too predictable, I do plan on writing some of hiss losses later on as well but I thought that he should win the first fight I write him in, what do you guys think?
