Tequila Mockingbird [ open brawl ]

Lexington heard a commotion going on outside and it caught his attention. He dropped his pen and looked outside to see people flying around, it looked like a free for all. Unfortunately, Lex wasn't really in any mood to fight, picking up his knapsack and his pen, Lexington quickly ran out to the battlefield and took a seat by a picnic bench not too far off. "Huh, looks like im a little late to this party" He said as he unraveled his sack and looked for a granola bar he stashed.

Jack had been holding back, hoping to get a solid idea of each fighter's position, but it was becoming more and more clear that this was pretty damn hard to do. Siobhan was easy enough, having remained relatively passive so far, but Gino and Kevin hardly seemed to be moving, even as Aldritch and Ira rapidly attacked and counterattacked with immensely powerful moves. An uneven battlefield, and one Jack needed to figure out, fast.

Ira was his target, but as things stood, he wouldn't be able to get close to her or Hexell without getting fried. He had a plan for that, when the time came, but right now there was too much potential interference, too many players still on the field. That needed to change.

Jack's course changed, suddenly swerving to one side, re-positioning.

Siobhan may have been on her own and in the open, but although she seemed to be paying close attention to Aldritch and Ira, she was likely watching for an attack. Gino and Kevin, on the other hand, were close together, as one attacked the other. Easier targets... but also less of a threat. A tricky decision. But then who said he couldn't try for all three?

His little turn served to bring him closer to both of the boys, and ensuring that he'd pass behind Gino's back. Now, he swerved again, and crashed straight into the boy from behind, slamming an elbow into his spine. It was a sneak attack, a strike from behind while his opponent was distracted by Kevin, difficult to anticipate and even more difficult to defend against. Even if his target had been on guard against other strikes, Jack was traveling at a speed roughly equivalent to a car streaking down a freeway, and his sudden change of direction left little time to even react, let alone avoid or defend against.

It was very likely that Gino would take a sudden and massive hit from this- but the strike wasn't only aimed at him. Kevin had moved into close quarters with the boy, attempting to uppercut him, and this had not escaped Jack's notice. Alvari would probably find that his attack struck home- but Gino in turn would be flung straight into him by the impact from behind. One boy hit by an elbow, which would likely jeopardize any defense he might have mustered against Kevin's uppercut, and the second boy hit by the first, as Jack's attack forced Gino into Kevin. The latter attack was indirect, and would likely have less of an impact, but Jack was counting on the two being hurt and possibly knocked over, and having to disentangle themselves after the fact. If he was lucky, he'd take one or both of them out, if not, they'd have to get off each other and find their feet before they could make any attempt to come after Jack.

Because he was already moving on to his next target.

If Jack's sudden strike worked as he'd planned, he wouldn't follow it up. Instead, his arm would open up and snap out, pushing off Gino, using the momentary contact to redirect himself before dashing away, now running straight towards Siobhan Arden.
