Finding Fights with Atton

[will_scarlett]

There's a sharp chill in the air as they step through the door. Will pulls his cloak around him and moves out of the way for Atton,

"'ere we are. Could do with 'ittin' someone."

Much nods and gestures two men forward, one who's wide but not terribly quick and another who's built more along Will's lines,

"John an Ned, ye'll fight 'im."

They give Atton a look and head towards him, neither of them are used to fighting with someone else so they're not sure the best way to attack.

Atton raises his fists, and decides to focus on the larger one first - John, he thinks.

He throws a punch at John's face, fast but hard, before ducking down to knee up at his groin.

[will_scarlett]

John was kind of expecting the punch so is able to block it and can't get out of the way fast enough for the knee.

So he doubles over and as Atton's kicking John, Ned moves in to try and kick Atton's legs out from under him.

Atton winces, falling forwards onto John, grabbing him to steady himself.

[will_scarlett]

John takes this opportunity to headbutt Atton while Ned tries to twist one of Atton's arms around his back.

[stuck-mynock.livejournal.com]

Atton manages to move his head slightly so that John doesn't catch his nose, but the headbutt still dazes him, and Ned gets his arm twisted behind his back fairly easily.

He uses his free arm to briefly wipe away the blood from his eyebrow, then kicks out at John.

[will_scarlett]

John absorbs the kick and punches Atton in the chest,

"Ye're na that much o'anythin'."

[stuck-mynock.livejournal.com]

Atton growls a little, kneeing up at John's groin again and headbutting backwards at Ned.

[will_scarlett]

Ned curses and falls back, releasing his hold on Atton's arm as he cradles his nose while John doubles up slightly.

[stuck-mynock.livejournal.com]

Ned is probably the more fragile of the two, so Atton turns, kicking at the side of his head.

[will_scarlett]

Neither of the men have ever seen anyone who can kick quite that high before and Ned goes down as John eyes Atton warily.

Then he charges him, coming in with a flurry of punches towards his chest and face.

[stuck-mynock.livejournal.com]

Atton raises his arms as a shield and ducks down behind them, letting them take the battering instead.

[will_scarlett]

John just keeps punching and punching though not all of them are at full strength.

[stuck-mynock.livejournal.com]

Atton flicks a foot around, trying to pull John to the ground.

[will_scarlett]

The foot shakes John's balance so that the punches are slower but he doesn't fall.

[stuck-mynock.livejournal.com]

Atton uses the slower punches as a chance to open his defense and throw a flurry of his own.

[will_scarlett]

The punches combined with the leg make John start to wobble slightly and he grunts as he does his best to get his footing again.

[stuck-mynock.livejournal.com]

Another knee to the groin, then - Atton's hit it before, so he's guessing it'll be sensitive.

[will_scarlett]

John doubles over and this time just uses his body weight to just knock Atton over.

[stuck-mynock.livejournal.com]

Atton ends up flat on his back.

[will_scarlett]

John falls over next to him though he's doubled over,

"Do ye yield?"

[stuck-mynock.livejournal.com]

Atton's response is to sit up and try to headbutt John.

He feels this is clear.

[will_scarlett]

The headbutt hits and John falls unconscious. Much laughs and comes over to offer Atton a hand up,

"Seems ye've won."

[stuck-mynock.livejournal.com]

Atton takes the hand up, wiping at his eyebrow again.

"Your turn, then. Looking forward to it?"

[will_scarlett]

"Aye, though ye're na as quick as ye were 'fore."

Much grins at him as Ned and John are carried out of the way.
