Killing the Dummies

Standing up, I stretched as I watched the shadow tentacles trying to grab at Eric, briefly reminded of the Kraken -- only, these tentacles were smaller and somewhat faster, and we weren't flying around them. Hm. This was taking too long -- I really just wanted to bash Eric's skull in now, instead of watching them twirl around with their pretty powers. I cracked my knuckles and strolled towards the boy controlling these shadows, rubbing my bad shoulder as I did so -- well, it could handle one or two good punches, the nectar and ambrosia were doing wonders for it. "Hey, spear boy-- here's how you knock somebody out!" I swung my fist at the boy's face.

I winced slightly as I withdrew my fist to my side, rubbing my slightly-sore knuckles; well, it didn't hurt my shoulder that badly, but I was saving all I had to bash Eric's skull in and maybe throw him into the ocean with weights tied to his feet. I smirked slightly and waved at the boy, who had ended up on the ground by the force of my oh-so-perfect punch. "Sorry, but your fight was getting boring -- I'm a bit impatient with twirling and magic. Now," I said, turning on my heel to face Eric, "your turn, you little prick."

"Oh, and I suppose your brain damage is going to be an accident too, huh? You're in for a world of pain, kid, and there's no way you're going to twirl or burst your way out of this one." I advanced towards Eric slowly, grinning maliciously with my fist held up. Dad -- Ares -- if you hear me, please give me a little boost of strength. Enough to break Eric's skull, if you want -- but I'm fine with just enough to knock him out for a few days, too. My shoulder still ached a bit from punching the other boy, but I had enough left in me for one more punch with my right arm -- and then I had my left one to use, too, even though it was weaker than my right one. I was now only five feet from Eric -- and with that bit of distance between us, I bounded forward and sent a strong punch at his face.

I winced as my fist came into contact with Eric's head, jarring my shoulder and causing a wave of pain to flow through my shoulder area. I jumped back to assess the damage -- and lo and behold, Eric was down for the count. Ha. I reached up and held my shoulder, grinning as I thought to myself that I'd have to get to the infirmary soon to get this thing properly healed; if I could do that again to him soon, I would. Permanent brain damage was fun.

ooc: sheesh , when will she forgive him?

bic: I groaned through my unconsciousness, I could still feel the pain, just not awake for it's fullest.

"Well, guys, I'm out." I turned to face the boy I'd punched first, grinning at him. "When he wakes up, tell him I'll be back. This punch was for you -- the next one will be the real deal." I snickered and walked out of the arena, still clutching my shoulder with a death grip. Mars got to his feet from his position underneath the bench and scurried after me, squealing loudly as we left.Ow. Ow. Ow. Ow.
