Yuo won't be able to maintain this dance for long. The ground was slippery and the world was still spinning. He launched a swift back kick, sending the armed thief tumbling. As he did so, the other attacker managed to land a glancing blow on Yuo's abdomen. The punch was mitigated by a reactionary roll of his body that took some steam out of its power, but the shot registered. It was enough to make his gut rumble. Yuo instinctively tried to cover his mouth but the projectile vomit snaked through his fingers and onto the thief that had punched him.

"Ack!" The thief cried out. Yuo experienced a moment of clarity, like time had stopped to present an opening in his attacker's guard. He power stepped forward and unleashed a snaking jab followed by a short, but powerful, closed right hand fist to the jaw that knocked the thief unconscious before he dropped to the ground. Yuo lost his footing in the follow through and slipped on the mud, causing him to fall face forward onto the thief he had just knocked out. [i]Sigh[/i]... 

Just as he hit the ground, he remembered that the armed thief was still behind him. As Yuo rolled onto his back in a defensive guard, he saw that the armed man had been swiftly dispatched by someone else. The figure was oddly clothed with a mask and garments that he'd never seen anyone from Daokai wear. This night was getting crazier by the second.

"T-thanks!" He clumsily got onto his feet and glanced back at the woman, who dismantled one attacker, and was now holding the other in what looked to be a painful arm submission.

"Let me go you wench!" The thief winced in pain as his left arm was kept bent in an awkward position.
