The Final Fight (open)

[haggar]

Haggar was sat at his desk in city hall, overlooking the skyline of New York. Things were finally normal after that fight with Mad Gear kidnapping Jessica. Everyone has seemed to go their separate ways now, which in a way was sad. Last he heard Cody went to jail for constant fighting. After all, vigilantism was still illegal and he couldn't really change that. Sure, Haggar usually gets a pass because he's the mayor, but Cody took it too far, constantly beating gang members to prove a point. However, for Mike things seemed to be going smoothly. He may even get to meet his old buddy Zangief again when he comes for the latest Street Fighter tournament. Haggar sat back in his chair, looking out the window as suddenly the phone rang.

"Hello, Mayor Haggar speaking. he said, slightly confused as he could be calling. "Ha ha ha, Mike. You think we would give up that easily. We're gonna destroy each of those hospitals you had built with grade a semtex, courtesy of Colonel Rolento. You can't reason with us this time Mikey, after you killed Belger this seems only fair." It was an ever familiar voice, Damn'd. He was the one who phoned the first time to tell Haggar that his beloved Jessica was kidnapped. The very man who stole his daughter away with horrifying threats to her. No way is anyone going to get away with trying to cause an act of terrorism in Mike Haggar's city.

Haggar walked out to the steps of city hall, tearing his shirt off to leave him in just his green dress pants, brown shoes and a suspender still hanging there. All of a sudden a man wielding a knife slid infront of Mike, hoping to stab him. Haggar dodged out the way and spun in a circle with his arms out, taking down the perp. He knew this guy, it was another recruit of Mad Gear, as evidenced by the red bandana around his arm.

[Bao Yu Chao]

Earlier on, the one who was not only known as Bao Yu Chao of the wealthy business Chao family, but also Agent Piggy Slinger got a few odd reports. Most of which were flops and a load of crap since it seemed like drunk homeless people enjoyed dressing like Big Foot these days scaring the crap out of people. That of course didn't end well for them but ended great for her since she got to beat the crap out of someone with the excuse of `But I really thought you were trying to terrorize people like a real Big Foot`. Truth be told, Big Foots were generally fairly docile unless hunting but ignorant morons like that didn't know let alone educate themselves properly. Now one report she got which called for her attention was something about a gang called Mad Gear. Normally, she'd just let the police deal with it but of course they were busy with other matters since petty thugs and abusive spouses never rested which is where she came in to help. Being associated with the police always meant one thing: rarely a dull moment sprung up in her life.

Especially with this case about how there were rumors circulating around the underground about terrorist attacks being launched on the city. It wasn't something she could handle on her own, especially with her usual lackeys to help since they were trying to gather more details and get themselves stationed in the proper areas most beneficial to the citizens and saving them. So far the biggest lead was they'd attack the hospitals and a bit of suspicious activity was clinching it more and more...problem was it had yet to be confirmed. Why wasn't the girl with cotton candy color schemed hair in a pair of buns and dolled up like a pink and black version of a mafia girl on her way there? Well, someone had to deal with the primary source to see if the attack could be stopped no matter where they really attacked! Running up to city hall with her pink soled black boots reaching passed her knees tapping on the ground with each rushed step, Bao Yu figured the smartest thing to do was get more information from the mayor himself or help him if he was already on his way to stop them. The guy wasn't exactly the sort to idly wait for people to fix it, the mayor LITERALLY defended his city and was someone even Bao Yu could respect without so much as a second guess nor question.

Even if he hadn't a clue who she was, she'd actually not hassle him for it which was incredibly rare when it came to other people. Wait a second...when she saw the shirtless mayor attacking someone who tried stabbing him, she quickened her pace and stopped soon as she got over to him. "It's good to know we have a mayor who isn't a push over. So, need help with cleaning up the trash plaguing the city today?" It wasn't as though she held any edge in her tone, but was in fact sounding respectful and professional.

[haggar]

As Haggar had just finished knocking out a thug, a woman with bright hair came up to him, seemingly wanting to offer her help in taking down the thugs who were threatening his city. "Yeah, nothing like kicking ass with a partner. Kinda like what happened back in '89, though you're probably too young to know of that." Haggar said, not really looking at the woman as he was too busy searching the gangbanger for any other offensive weaponry, finding nothing more than that puny knife. "You know me already, so let's skip my introduction. You gotta name, miss?" Haggar spoke, standing now at his full height of 6 feet and 7 inches, able to tower over almost anyone. Haggar's intimidating size really had little use against people helpful to his cause, he was well known for being a man of the people and never responded harshly to anyone who wasn't out to cause evil to his people or his city.

Haggar folded his arms, looking down at the woman. "Mad Gear are back... again. These guys are like cockroaches, you squash them and they come back. They'd just got done taking my daughter, call it an anniversary of their attack back in '89. They're gonna blast a couple hospitals with semtex. More than likely the ones I funded, but you can't be sure so we gotta focus on them all." Haggar said in his usual gruff but determined voice. Haggar couldn't help but feel filled with rage at the prospect of someone destroying his beloved city.

"I say we hit the hospital right a few blocks from here. It's fairly new yet relatively unused. They'll be evacuated by now, police must'a heard as my line is monitored. One'a the best things about being Mayor, if someone's stupid enough to phone you with a threat there's always someone listening in." Haggar said in his usual gruff New York accent, grabbing a nearby pipe from the ground and holding it rested on his shoulder. Haggar started walking into the direction of the local hospital, keeping a close eye on this woman, hoping she'd know just who she's up against.

[Bao Yu Chao]

This mayor she could get along with, not only did he care about the city but he also did something to help it too! That right there is something the rest of the world needed...or at least in her opinion anyway. All she had was some information to go by thanks to her organization and connections, yet she wasn't all knowing, nor were her sources. Plus they focused on more paranormal scenarios which meant less information on majority of gangs unless they were a bundle of werewolves or something. With a few steps getting her closer, she watched him search his attacker then quirked a brow wondering what or even WHO these people were exactly. Maybe looking further into Mad Gear was a good idea rather than just scraping at the surface of it all. Normally she'd just go on and introduce herself as Agent Piggy Slinger then possibly get a look of `Are you crazy? You actually go around calling yourself that?!` but it seemed like a better idea to be a little more formal with the mayor.

"I'm Bao Yu of the Chao family, Mayor Haggar." Trying to be professional instead of casual or her default of pissed off during her short little introduction, she then looked up at him and...couldn't help but feel short. Being in the higher end of the five foot range seemed to do that with really tall people roaming around the city! Probably yet another reason aside from fashion for wearing platform boots almost all the time. Anyway...what he had to say was absolutely important and seemed to clinch what bit of information she and her people managed to scrape up. Admittedly, these guys sounded like they were worse than most of the vampires she had to deal with! Stealing daughters AND threatening to blow up hospitals for who knows what stupid reason?!

That was just low...really really low....even by her standards. Though...a problem couldn't help but surface within the spoiled girl's mind...how in the world could the two of them focus on EVERY hospital. Just as she was about to question such a strategy and try to throw out suggestions on what they could do, it seemed like he figured the police were on it and like most bad guys around here thar didn't bother thinking about how the lines for people such as the mayor are monitored got additional help. "Tch...they need to be put in their place...but my main question is who's in charge of these Mad Gear guys or at least the piece of trash in charge of this attack?" A tad bit of frustration lingered in the girl's professionally edgy tone as though she was trying to maintain her cool. Following after the brick house of a mayor who decided to grab a pipe, she opted to slide her hands into those long sleeves and pull out a pair of sturdy box cutters. The blades didn't exactly look flimsy like most brands, these looked as though they had silver infused in them plus thicker as well.

These pointy sharp objects of doom weren't one of those short ones either, but the type which extend to about five inches when clicked up all the way. "Maybe if we can find their source, we'll be able to take out this whole operation...or perhaps that only applies to dealing with werewolves and vampires..." Lightly tapping her chin with the butt of her cutter and looking around while trying to figure out how these guys operated as well as keeping herself on guard. Thugs and kidnappers were on her list of things that were womanhandled by her in the most brutal way...but it wasn't a frequent event in the `supposedly a normal human` category. Right now her only strategy was to follow Haggar's lead and be his back up. Her men were at the ready in case she needed them to show up...even though at times they were useless however this would probably be different since mundane cases generally made them less...pathetic. Only time could tell that one though.

For now, she was bracing herself for their arrival at what could have been a trap swarming with gang members to beat the crap out of with pipes, fists, and knives.

[haggar]

Haggar nodded at her introduction. He couldn't say he's ever heard of the Chao family before but if they were all as eccentric looking as this lady he wasn't surprised. He folded his arms, looking down at her with his ever present squint, often making him seem quite gruff. "Nice ta' meet ya' I hope you can handle these Mad Gear bastards. They're tough, they make some of the best cops wanna haul ass out of New York." He said in a concerned tone, Haggar really didn't want this girl to get in too deep with some of the harshest criminals around. Still, she looked like someone that might be able to handle themselves in a fight against some crooks.

Haggar looked back at the woman, seemingly frustrated at the prospect of the heinous crimes this gang were committing and their leader. "I could tell ya' lots about the leader. His name's Colonel Rolento Schugerg... He's an East German mercenary running drugs and guns to Shadaloo. You heard'a them right? Well, this guy rallies armies and has a dictatorship over a small South African country. He took over Mad Gear after I punted Belger out of a fourth story window. Nasty piece'a work this guy. Second in command is Poison with a hulking bodyguard named Andore.... Don't get me started on that Poison... Gives me tha' creeps." Haggar said, gripping the lead pipe in his hand as he saw his accomplice pull out a pair of boxcutter knives. They didn't look like much, but he remembered his buddy Cody was a whizz with knives and he saw how even the most pathetic looking blade could be deadly.

Haggar clicked his neck as the young lady piped up with an idea, taking them out from the source and mentioned about supernatural creatures shortly thereafter. "Well, can't say I seen many werewolves and vampires in my time. But I do know taking out the head of an organization, someone else is gonna take the place of them and quick. Took Rolento a mere few days before he lead Mad Gear. I say it's a good idea to try and take out many of his thugs as possible and bring them to justice. That way, it'll take longer to find a new head honcho. Way I sees it anyway." Haggar said with in a gruff tone, many of the people who saw him thought of him just as a musclebound brainless tough guy. But beneath all that he hid a strategic and intelligent mind. Mike turned to the direction of 3rd street, where the first hospital was located. "This is the closest one, brace ya'self" Haggar spoke as he walked forward, seeing a group of thugs armed with various weapons standing infront of the duo's goal.

[Bao Yu Chao]

Didn't seem like he knew of her family but was happy to meet her all the same...looks like everyone was right about the mayor of New York. A real people person after all which was nice since she always had to bite the bullet when encountering most politicians. They were so...so pompous and pathetic! At least this one was doing something or trying to do something in order to help his precious city. However his concern was worth noting when he talked of this punkish bastards they were going to face up against. Times like these she wished she did more research on the regular gangs rather than the supernatural and paranormal types considering a plethora of information would be useful around now. Especially since New York DID have some damn good cops from her experience in working with them from time to time.

These guys were just a big pack of bad news wrapped up in crime from what she was gathering so far. Hell...their leader was with Shadaloo...which was definitely brought up more than a few times in her years of dealing with the things plaguing this world. Bao Yu Chao definitely had landed herself in one hell of a mess once again cause this guy was actually going to be a challenge it seemed. Not just some typical push over or a loser recently turned vampire thinking they're all that, but a master mind which was far more dangerous than any werewolf she'd ever face off against trying to rip her throat open. At least Haggar had punched the last guy out the window, it definitely gave her hope that between the two of them, things wouldn't result with them being dead. Then the second in command not only had a body guard but also was so disturbing that Haggar himself didn't want to go into detail! Well damn...this was going to be...dare she even think it....tough.

So used to things being easy...maybe now wasn't the time to be a bit thankful that she'd get to clean up some REAL trash and break a sweat? Huh...sounded like the mayor was getting himself ready for a big ol' beat down...just before responding to her suggestion. Looks like disposing of the leader wasn't the best route and it was `beat up the baddies!` for sure. Admittedly...she was glad he didn't call her crazy when mentioning vampires and werewolves. Got kind of annoying when people thought she was nuts over something that actually existed. Anyway! Nodding in agreement to his idea on how to handle these guys, they couldn't be that too far off from their destination at this point. Continuing to follow along, taking the turn noting the sign of 3rd street in the event she had to call in a favor or something for help...though that was at the bottom of her battle plans.

Brace herself....well while tightening her grip upon her seemingly puny box cutters, she responded with something a tad bit unorthodox... "Got it...let's kick their asses and make them regret being such stupid bastards." Twirling the box cutters between her fingers for the moment she continued following him...it was best to take his lead. Normally when she had a better gist of the situation, this lovely lady would lead. This time though, it seemed like a better idea to be back up until she had a better idea as to how these filthy rats were generally handled. Regardless of not knowing the situation 100%, she kept the basics of dealing with ANYTHING that was capable of killing: Be ready to g.t.f.o of the way and defense! Keeping an eye on the Mad Gear thugs ahead, she wanted to make certain that if they did anything she'd be more than ready to do something better than get man handled with a swift attack.

...and yes...she was glaring at them as though one of her many forms of justice were her blades ripping across their damn necks. Which...was totally one of her game plans if it came up to it even though the mayor was there...go figure!

[haggar]

Haggar smirked when his accomplice said how they were going to make these guys sorry for their life of crime. "Go!" Haggar barked out, not in a commanding manner but more to let her know he was ready to charge and to stick close. The hulking man stormed into the group of enemies with a determined glint in his eye. Mike took one out first by dodging his knife lunge and locking his arm, swinging him into a nearby wall with enough force to leave cracks in the brickwork. Another pulled out a firearm on the mayor, with quick reflexes he dropkicked the thug with enough force to bounce him off the wall behind him, giving Haggar an ample chance to flip him upside down and piledrive him into the concrete, all while spinning in a counter clockwise motion.

"Reminds me'a the old days." Mike said to himself, engrossed in battle as he span in a circle with outstretched arms to knock out a few thugs trying to flank him from either sides with baseball bats. It truly was nostalgic for the mayor to be fighting criminals on the streets of New York. Not since 1989 had he been in such a huge brawl with organized crime. Hell, he even had a partner just like how he teamed up with Cody and Guy to bring justice to the streets.

"How ya' holdin' up over there?" Haggar yelled over to Bao, asking if she was in any need of help for the group of thugs she was likely engaging in combat with. "Agh, shit." Haggar growled out quitely, he'd taken his mind off the battle for a second and ended up receiving a slash from one of the thug's blades. "Oh, now ya' done it, tough guy." the mayor yelled as he swung a clothesline punch into the punk, spinning him in midair as he slammed the guy down into the ground with an elbow drop. Things had seemingly gone quiet as the men he'd just fought were crawling away injured or out cold unconscious. Before Haggar had a chance to call in the police to take away these knocked out punks he saw a familiar sight. "Good to see you, Mr Mayor. It's been far too long, don't you agree?" Mike stood still, glaring at the duo now standing a good ten feet away. "This is the creep I told you about... Keep ya' watch out." Haggar growled out as he stared at the pink haired transvestite and his hulking mute bodyguard Andore. Poison had been causing trouble for Metro City longer than Haggar cared to remember and continuously made himself known as one of the more well known crooks of the city, if slightly lower down on the crime list.

((OOC: Wanted to up the Final Fight-ness. So I gave us a boss fight as such, I figured nobody here would ever use Andore and Poison so they're ripe to use as NPC's if it's not cool though I can always edit them to be just regular goons)

[Bao Yu Chao]

GO! Triggered the Piggy Empire Heiress to quickly flick and twist the blades so that they were sticking out near her pinkies at a slight angle before crouching down and leaning forward. Narrowing her eyes as she took off in one hell of a speedy sprint rushing at a pace similar to his but slower...keeping right behind him for a moment. Not to use him as a shield, mind you but her tactic was simple: make it less predictable about where she was going to strike. Ok, so she would use her own bodyguards and other people as meat shields but not the respectable mayor. Noticing him about to take a swing at some guy who tried shanking him with a knife, that's when Bao Yu took that as her cue and went in the opposite direction on the opposite side of him speeding up. The one this girl with a piggy tie faced had a chain wrapped with a bit of barbed wire. FABULOUS. These guys were far from being n00bs amateurs with the way he noticed fast enough to swing his chain down on her.

Ah but she wasn't new to the whole fighting scene either....in fact when the thug's arm began to move, she twisted her body backwards spinning on her heel in a half circle and watched the chain slam right into the ground. Weird...her elbow grazed something... AND OH A GUY WITH A KNIFE AT THE CORNER OF HER EYE! Taking a hop forward avoiding the stab trying to say hello to her kidneys...now she had TWO guys' backs facing her. So what did she do? Quickly brace and stand her ground to maintain balance while swiftly slamming her six inch box cutters into THEIR kidneys before giving it a slight twist of the wrist grating their flesh to make a niiiice open wound for em' as `thanks` for trying to best her before pulling the blades out at an angle THUS making the wound just that much bigger. Oh hey a fellow was trying to swing a bat at her! Crouching down with a look of `I'm going to hurt you` locked into those deep blue malicious eyes of hers ramming the blades into the guy's calves. WELL...that got him to drop the bat, she twisted her body slightly to the right bringing the blade along in an SHORYUKEN! uppercut along his abdomen leaving a nice big cut that was going to need more than just a trip to the emergency room to fix.

Of course finishing off with a SMACK to his temple with her knuckles. These guys...REALLY pissed her off! Clicking the blades closed and sliding them into her pockets, she grabbed the screaming...and rather bloody...Mad Gear guy's throat. Gripping it with a tight ol squeeze, she noticed someone pulling a gun on her as well. FUN! So she jerked his body like a meat shield which caught a couple bullets before letting the poor sap go. "Not done with you, asshole." Muttering out those words in one hell of a dangerous tone before ramming and twisting her fist into the beaten and shot up guy's face to send him into his pal with a gun. About to go check on Haggar who talked about how this reminded him of the good ol' days not too long ago while dishing out his own batch of whoop ass, someone had the gull to grab her...and...whoever it was..laughed.

Man oh man did THAT really irritate her! So much that she yelled out, "LET ME GO YOU FILTHY BASTARD OR I'LL SMEAR YOUR FACE INTO THE PAVEMENT!" Oh yes...she sounded pissed off to a whole new level. "Heh heh heh heh..." OH! That was IT! Forcing herself in a fling forward, she guided her captor into a neck snapping fall while kicking her legs up in a FLASH KICK STYLE flip. Getting her arms free, she cringed ever so slightly before touching her palms to the ground to do a quick handstand to gain a sense of balance. Carefully, but at a fast pace, she swung her ankle down before guiding herself back upon her feet. Oh ho ho...and lucky her...he was face down...so what'd she do?

Ram her foot down on the back of his head a few times aaaand twist twist twist his face against the pavement juuuust like she said. A woman of her word is what she was! Dusting off after that feeling a little satisfaction out of it, she responded in a way that didn't sound too much like she was having an attitude problem...but also a hint of politeness "I'm f-" aaaand chain smacked her riiiight in the spine causing her to stumble forward. Holy...crap...that hurt like the time she got back handed by a werewolf! Gritting her teeth REFUSING to scream or cry like a loser...instead she let out one hell of a pissed off grunt before hissing out, "操你祖宗十八代...!" Twisting around, she grabbed onto the chain tightening her grip on it before tugging the thug forward...aaaand punching with a twist guided by her knuckles into his gut. Briiinging her fist back ONE MORE TIME she rammed her knuckles into the guys tummy again for good measure before letting go of the really rude guy's chain with a death glare of sorts.

Alright, awesome her coast was clear...or...you know people writhing in pain trying to get outta there, she looked over to the macho mayor wondering how he was holding up. Geeze...looked like the both of them didn't get out of this unscathed. Walking on over to Mr. Has Been Known To Pile Drive Sharks, those black boots with three inch thick pink soles stopped in their tracks before turning to the voice of...some pink haired prostitute stripper complete with ridiculously muscular bouncer? ....what the crap. Seriously. SERIOUSLY? Oh...what in the name of her wealthy family....THIS was Poison?! "...so the stripper cop is Poison? Tch...no wonder you called this...whatever it is a creep...it looks like a guy with boobs."

Quirking a brow feeling the corner of her mouth twitch a little. Guh...if this medical mish-mash of gender mind tweaking was enough to worry the mayor...she better be on her guard. Pulling out her box cutters once more, she took in a deep breath before letting out a heavy sigh trying to clear her mind a bit getting ready for phase two....

(EPIC! Is all good :3 and yeah I don't mind at all cause I see your point ^u^! WHEEEEEEE LET THE GAMES BEGIN x3 !!! Da da da da da daaaaaa~!)

[haggar]

Haggar stared back at his new partner. He had to remark at just how many people she'd taken out. "Maybe my old age is catchin' up with me, these youngsters are whoopin' ass efficiently. Hell, I can't say I agree with the maniacal stabbing. But hey, Cody was the same way." Haggar thought to himself, engaging once again in what looked like a staring contest with the pink haired transvestite in the cop outfit and his huge bodygard. "Yer a quick one, ain't ya?" Haggar chucked at Bao's comment on the creepy transvestite with the pink hair. Yeah, Poison was often one of the more well known gang leaders of New York, her loyal follower Roxy not often far behind.

"So, you brought backup this time? Well, she sure took care of a few punks but wait till she gets a load of me." Haggar grimaced, angered by her snide comments. He had bad blood with Poison's gang and the feud wasn't about to end here. "This bitch'll slash you to shreds if you're not careful. You look tough though, I'm guessing you don't want to go against Andore here so I'll take him. It looked like a tough fight, the massive mayor stared at his partner, almost about to signal when it would be the right time to launch their attack.

Haggar let out a loud yell as he charged towards the two, pushing Poison aside so he can get to Andore. Mike started his attack by swinging a huge fist into the eight foot tall man's face. It felt almost like punching a steel wall but he just had to press on and defeat this lumbering beast. Haggar grabbed the nearest item to him, finding a lead pipe just inches away and with a swing he connected the pipe into Andore's face. "How ya' like that, Hugo? You remembering the last time I kicked yours and Poison's asses?" Haggar said in a yelling tone, swinging wildly with the lead pipe until it was broken in half over the huge man's head.

"Ah, shit." Haggar said tossing away the broken weapon, now focusing on using his fists and throwing rough punches into the face of Andore, leaving his hands bloody half from the cuts on his knuckles and half from the blood pouring from his face and mouth across the mighty fists. "Bao" Haggar yelled back towards his accomplice, too busy trading blows with Andore to really focus on her. "How ya' holdin' up?"

[Bao Yu Chao]

Looks like she made a funny and it was acknowledged by the ass kicking mayor. Responding to the mayor's words with a snicker and casually spoken "I'm a detective at times, it's what I do." Slightly shrugging after those words to polish it off. Well it was true, this Poison looked like a guy with a boob job! Tilting her head slightly to the side while glancing over at the pink haired....shemale after `she` said her little line about disposing of punks and to get a load of her...him? Hell she wasn't sure. "Tch...we'll see." Such few words were hardly passed off in a polite fashion as she gripped her bloodied box cutters.

It felt like they were reaching the end of their durability....as long as they lasted just a bit longer. Side glancing toward Mayor Haggar, she couldn't help but notice his disturbance toward this Poison person. Apparently psycho pink haired bitch was the sort to slice people to ribbons...but hey, at least he acknowledged how she wasn't a weak little flower. Really pissed her off when anyone overlooked how much training paid off. "I may have gone against some pretty big monsters in my time but this Andore guy really takes the prize on freak sized human." cringing a bit, the rich girl waited for his cue since taking his lead seemed smarter than taking her own. Namely because he's dealt with these guys before and she hadn't.

Right when he charged, she followed his lead glaring over at Poison. Then the she he whatever got knocked over, she flipped up in the air and was about the ram her heel into the high heel wearing stripper cop's bare stomach,but was surprised to have her ankle grabbed. "Oh damn...!" Being flung right into the ground while letting out a barely audible squeak. She quickly scrambled to her feet almost looking a little freaked out...one thing she didn't like was falling. Feeling her nerves jitter...for a moment the rich and proud of it girl felt frozen but snapped out of it when a cloth ripping sound hit her ears...oh no that gender indecisive thing di-idn't! Glancing down to see one of her FAVORITE pink pinstriped black jackets was ruined, she was SO not happy about that!

Just as she swiped her right blade toward the second in command of Mad Gear, the pink haired bitch DEFINITELY had skills since their blades were now pretty much locked. OK WELL! DAMN! Bringing her left hand up, aiming to stab her in the shoulder with this `WHATEVERYOUAREI'MGONNAFREAKINGKILLYOU` look on her face, her wrist got smacked away and...OH WAS THAT HIGH HEEL WEARING WHAT-CHA-MA-CALL-IT SMIRKING?! Her grip loosened on the box cutter causing it to drop to the ground and crack. O....k...this was not going well....no wonder this was their second in command. Bringing her other box cutter away, she couldn't believe it....this girl...man with boobs....uh...whatever....had some serious skill. Stepping backward from the constant knife swipes, it sounded like Haggar was having a bit of a blast taunting the guy he had to deal with...yelling at the guy. Up until she coulda sworn she heard a metal pipe break.

Twisting her body around for a short moment, the spun around with her right heel guiding it right into the pink haired woman's arm via tornado kick. That seemed to get the second in command off balance and upon landing on the ground again...oh sweet beautiful solid ground....she brought her left fist across her chest then took a leap forward. Thrusting her knuckles toward the highlighter haired stripper cop looking thing's shoulder to knock em' down. It was about that time her partner was calling over to check on how she was... "Let's just say I'm not dead. How 'bout you?" Aaaand that's when she felt a blade pierce her boot and into her flesh. Gritting her teeth, strongly resisting the urge to scream in pain, she pulled her leg away from the now bloodied knife.

Adjusting her gaze toward the one who stabbed her...who was slowly getting up. Ah... that wasn't gonna happen. Delivering a swift low kick toward her opponent, she cringed a bit from the pain surging up her leg...oh sunuvabitch that hurt!

[haggar]

Haggar ducked a swinging blow from the hulking man, retaliating with a vicious boot to the stomach to send him back. Andore sure could take some punishment. Haggar had fought the man in ways that'd kill any other lesser punk and he still came back for more. Suddenly, Haggar felt a vice like grip around his abdomen after the kick. "Ahh, shit! I didn't keep an eye out for his arms when I kicked." Haggar grunted to himself, caught in a bearhug as the maniacal German beast of a man attempted to use his arms to squeeze the life out of the mayor, not unlike that of a wild python. "CRRUNCCH" "Get yer' hands offa me you sick bastard" he grunted out again, feeling his bones buckling and creaking under the pure strength of Hugo Andore.

With some quick thinking Haggar wriggled one of his huge arms free, gripping a handful of Andore's matted hair and swinging a huge headbutt square into his nose, the giant releasing him and gripping his severely broken face. "I swear, ya' amateurs know nothing these days." Haggar said after he dropped to the ground, picking himself up before raising his arms up in the air with a mighty roar. It was a habit he hadn't dropped from his pro wrestling days. Once again, Haggar gripped onto the head of the dazed Hugo Andore, about to send this guy on a one way trip to the emergency room. "Stun...Gun.....Headbutt" he yelled out. Again, another habit from his days as a pro wrestler. Mike suddenly swung no less than thirty headbutts into Hugo's head, doing them in a rapid succession and finally finishing the move by pulling his whole body back and swinging his head forward, putting every ounce of strength into the final headbutt. Hugo finally fell back, seemingly knocked out from the onslaught of strikes.

Grimacing to himself, Haggar folded his arms, admiring the work he did knocking out this giant without any help from a team mate. "You can't **** with the mayor, Hugo." Haggar said in a rough and gruff tone, shaking his head as he heard his partner had similarly taken out her counterpart in the fight. Let's just say I'm not dead. How 'bout you Haggar chuckled slightly, walking over. "I think I made that ugly bastard look a bit better from that facial rearrangement." Haggar grunted out, slowly walking over to his accomplice.

Haggar shook his head as he saw Poison brandish a knife and stab into Bao's foot. "Now you done it..." Mike charged towards her, watching as Bao swiftly kicked Poison and was readying his own attack. "Atomic Leg Drop" Mike yelled out jumping in the air and landing a leg drop into Poison's face, double teaming it with Bao's kick. Straightening himself out, Haggar looked towards Bao. "You gonna be good to continue to the hospital or ya' need a breather?" he asked in a concerned tone.

[Bao Yu Chao]

The city was in very good hands with this guy, especially from what she gathered hearing during her own scuffle. It was hard to focus on an epic ass whooping while trying to keep herself from losing a kidney in a knife fight! Ah well, she did hear out the mayor a bit more when he responded to her sounding as though he definitely rearranged that Andore guy's face pretty good. Normally she would have tossed in some snarky remark about how much that guy probably deserved it but the stab wound didn't help her thinking process at all. More so when the pain surged up her leg to play a game of `kick the bitch`. Apparently Misster Poison had it coming with the way New York's hulking wrestler of sorts said `Now you done it`just before their kicks were teamed up and finished off the Pink haired mystery bundle package gender second in command! Letting out a heavy sigh as she lightly put her foot down, trying not to put too much weight on it.

Ok ok to be fair she was the sort who would push herself until she was barely moving or not at all...but she did attempt to be careful about it at least. Eh? There was a concerned inquiry about her current state about whether or not she needed a break. It may have been a good idea....but... "I can rest when we finish dishing out the justice, I should be alright though." Even though she didn't straight up say `thanks for caring, lots of people don't`, her tone may have had a little aggression geared toward the gang trying to blow up hospitals BUT there was certainly a sense of sincerity as though she did appreciate thinking about her injury. Only a stab wound, really...it wasn't going to kill her since it wasn't one of those fatal injuries. After this though...the rich girl with a bit of an attitude problem would DEFINITELY need a `deal with wounds` time.

Taking off her piggy pink tie with the pig sewn into it, she crouched down before wrapping the injured area with enough pressure and padding to help stop the blood flow a bit better. Cringing a bit and gritting her teeth not so much as screaming in pain, she stood back up and tapped her heal on the ground....well awesome! Those nerves of hers were still screaming like crazy but not so much and a bit of pain subsiding was much better than nothing at all. "That should just about do it. I won't get in your way, I've had my arm dislocated before by some diseased freak of a vampire...just popped it back into place and kept going." Exposing a strong sense of determination, she brought her hand up and slightly brushed some stray navy blue strands trying to stab her eyes like evil little ninjas.

For a moment she glanced over to the end result of what happens when you piss off the mayor and thine name was Hugo Andore...she couldn't help but add, "Anyway, should we go ahead and make more idiotic gangsters look like them for trying to mess with this city?" Professionally inquiring those words as if she was with the mafia and ready to deliver a hit on some people who were sitting ducks while returning her attention to Mike Haggar. If he started walking, she would be sure to follow.

Haggar could only admire the determination this young lady showed, she wasn't going to quit just because of an injury. Although, he'd seen some designated ass-kickers call it quits from far less debilitating injuries. "Heh, reminds me of my battle with the Red Cyclone. I fought him while nursing a knife wound to the gut... didn't tell him though. Too honourable a guy, he'd never fight a guy with a handicap." Haggar said to Bao, seeing a lot of his own drive in this woman who quite obviously wanted to destroy whoever is causing this destruction to the city, that little wound giving her all the more reason to rain on Colonel Rolento's parade.

Haggar folded his arms and watched as Bao dressed her wound considerably well, must have had past experience with crazies wielding knives. "If ya' ever need a breather just say and I'll be happy to stop and rest up." Haggar said in his usual gruff but obviously well meaning tone as he hunted around for a nearby weapon to utilize before they set off to the hospital. "Aha" Haggar thought to himself as he saw a discarded metal folding chair next to a trash can. It brought back memories of whooping the asses of wannabe badasses in the ring and was easily one of the weapons he had the most knowledge with. Haggar walked up to it and grabbed at the bottom legs of the chair with both hands, giving a few test swings to check it was still in decent shape.

Walking back to Bao he heard her mention a little story about dislocation and smirked with a slightly impressed look on his face. "Ya' a tough one, ain't ya'? I suffered a nasty dislocation once, one of my legs got pulled out of place by some punk bastard when I was fighting in London one time... They call wrestlin' fake... Bunch'a hack critics that need to go a few rounds with me to see how real it is." Haggar chuckled out the last part, he had a tendency to talk about his past fights a lot. Since retiring he honestly missed the ring and found fighting got a lot of his tension out, making him actually quite relaxed after having utterly dominated the fight against Andore moments ago.

Bao now seemed more precise about wanting to take down the thugs that were threatening the city. Haggar nodded silently before taking a look at the street to the right of them. "Hospital is just there, you see it? Two poor saps guarding the door... Both are tooled up, we need to move quick unless we wanna be perforated with holes." Haggar said to his accomplice, crouching down and getting ready to charge.

Suddenly, the hulking mayor ran at a pretty fast speed for a man his size, glaring right at the two thugs and not really watching how far behind Bao was. Haggar knew all eyes were on him anyway, he was a big enough target for the both of them to force attention on him. BADABADABDABDA! One thug fired off with his SMG. However, Haggar's steel chair worked as a perfect shield as he held it directly in front to absorb the bullets before swinging it with a mighty "THWAK" into the head of the guard, knocking him out cold.

From the sound of it, seemed like the good ol' ass kicking mayor had made his way around and met some interesting people in his time. It was to be expected of someone who actually didn't just sit on their ass all day ACTING important. Strange thing was though, the name `Red Cyclone` rang a small bell....as if he was someone important. Oh well...if it was important or profound enough it'd dawn on her later! "Hm...actually sounds like a person with a good heart. Well your little story taught me something useful, I'm working with someone who pushes themselves as well. Hope you never lose that trait, would be a shame."

Normally, those words coated in a professionally casual nature would have had more content to them but she was going to keep conversing to a minimum until they finished everything. Honestly, it was nice to be treated like a person and not some sort of money sponge so working with the mayor was definitely a breath of fresh air. Though...she couldn't help but be just a bit puzzled when the mayor of New York City was kind enough to actually let her know that if she needed a break they could just go and find a place to rest. "I'll keep that in mind, thanks." Even though she sounded fairly mellow, on the inside she couldn't help but feel like she actually had a real friend and it didn't feel like some fake friendship either. Checking her makeshift bandages made of her amazing tie and securing it juuuuust a bit more to make sure and it was alright it seemed! Had to be sure since walking AND taking names wasn't exactly a stroll in the park when trying to make sure bandages would stay in place.

They HAD TO keep together...last thing she wanted was to slow the mayor down let alone the task at hand Ms. Chao would do her very best to help with. There were PLENTY of lives at risk and she knew they had to hurry. Looking back up to Haggar who got a handy dandy new weapon which was....a...folding chair....not a bad choice for working with his surroundings! Seemed like he had his fair share of dealing with dislocations and how as an experienced wrestler he got his leg dislocated by some loser. Plus he rightfully seemed a tad bit sour about how dumbass critics called wrestling fake save for the fact that he almost seemed amused at the thought of getting em' in a ring with the way he chuckled it out. Certainly she'd invest money to see that one! Smirking in response, she really couldn't help it but she wholeheartedly agreed with the real owner of this city.

However her composure shifted to one of a serious nature and determination upon hearing his next set of words while turning her attention over to the road he was talking about and pulled out her trusty slingshot from the concealed pocket of that black jacket with pink pinstripes plus a pack of `ammunition` for it. They were pretty much like clumped together razor pellets that had three flat surfaces. Top, bottom, and back so that she could pick them up without cutting herself easily and on top of that load it into the slingshot without cutting it. The little baggy containing her ammo was sturdy and durable so that it wouldn't stab her. Placing the ammo baggy into a pocket at an angle she could pull stuff out easier, she spoke up in a tone to assure him..."I don't think we'll be turning into swiss cheese any time soon...I've got a plan and I'm sure you do too." Despite the hints of `we're pals and I got your back!`lingering in her serious tone, she didn't really seem too soft but edge definitely seemed to shift into a `GONNA PROTECT THE MAYOR WHO IS MY HOMIE AND THIS CITY AT THE SAME DAMN TIME!`sharpness. Running on his cue, she readied her sling shot by loading it up and pulling it back looking to the two guards.

The mayor NO ONE IN THEIR RIGHT MIND would mess with charged at one so she aimed for the other riiiiight between the eyes before he could go all trigger happy and released the razor blade of doom causing the guy to fall backwards with a chunk of metal stickin' out of his skull....that must of hurt! Reloading her sling shot, she was SOOOOO thankful for her experience as a paranormal investigator who had to occasionally hunt what she tried to further understand! That knife wound of hers seeped a bit of blood and stung with a bunch of pain but she wasn't going to let that stop her....not yet...! Gritting her teeth a bit, the peculiar girl with cotton candy color themed locks and an attitude that didn't match it much at all continued following after him save for the fact she paused for a moment and looked to the guy she knocked down with her slingshot shootin'. So for good measure...she slammed her good foot right onto the CLEARLY disposable Mad Gear goon's throat. Ok, taking a life in the company of the mayor MAY NOT have been a good idea but hey....she was PISSED OFF at these guys and didn't want this one to show up and try shooting them later being all sour about having something stuck in his head! Her motto was fight to survive so that's what she was doing at this moment!

Haggar cracked his knuckles and clicked his neck, smirking at bit at the mention of The Red Cyclone having a good heart. "Heh, for a commie that is." Haggar said with a chuckle, it was really a meaningless joke. He remembered how his old friend WAS a Soviet after all, and while they differed on political views, they remained good friends 'comrades' as Zangief always said. Haggar then folded his arms, staring over at Bao. "Don't you worry 'bout me, Bao. Y'see, as long as I stand I'll be dealing out some grade-A American ass whoopin' " he spoke out in his gravelly voice, it was almost as if he was speaking in one of those wrestling promos he always seemed to film. Old habits were hard to break, he was used to talking in cliché tough guy lines, yet they never sounded insincere with him. Haggar was every bit of the badass that he boasted.

When she mentioned she'd keep it in mind, he nodded. Haggar often put his partners first and didn't ever want to overwork someone who was quite obviously injured. Still, at the very least she wasn't the type to just shrug off injuries. They often only did such as a facade to make themselves look tougher, and it was often their downfall.

Haggar now stared at the unconventional weapon, it certainly wasn't something he'd expect to see used in any serious manner. "What she gonna do with that thing?" Haggar thought to himself, almost trying not to laugh at the very simple nature of the weapon. Still, it's not like his was any less laughable due to the fact outside of pro wrestling you never really saw a steel chair used as an offensive weapon.

Haggar looked back to Bao after he knocked out the thug with the chair, having noticed that slingshot was used to fire a deadly projectile into the thug's head and noticing her also throwing a stomp into the man's throat. "Can't say I agree with cold blooded murder, but I guess it's not too bad in this case." He looked over at her afterwards, folding his arms and noticing her leg was seeping blood quite a bit. "Ya' need a breather? If you want, grab one of those assault rifles unless your not a gun person. I wouldn't blame ya' if not, I'm not one of those kinds either." he spoke in his usual gruff tone, looking slightly concerned for the damage to his partner's leg.
