Fisticuffs

[Hannibal Oryen]

Hannibal could have assaulted the downed Slade in those precious few moments before the ding, but opted not to. He didn't want this over too quickly. He had to make himself look good, and needed more opportunities to do so. It was a little disappointing his punch had been blocked, but he was hardly complaining. He still floored his opponent, and that got a roaring response from the crowd. The guy had also opted not to come back at Hannibal again, though that was probably more for tactical reasons than anything else. Hannibal cracked his neck, meandering over to his corner of the ring, giving his opponent a curt nod.

The side of his head still stung, but that was normal. It would probably keep hurting for the duration of this match and then some time after. No matter. They were offering drinks, but Hannibal refused them once he settled down in his corner. There was no way he was fighting drunk. That would only make him look silly. No, he'd stay away from the drink. No doubt someone would have his spiked if they bet enough money on the other guy... Not that there was much to go on thus far in terms of which way this fight was going to swing.

Hannibal reclined in his corner, cybernetic eyes focusing and refocusing as they processed every little thing they could in regards to Slade's movements...

 

[Regor Laxvan]

well I need information, of these area's criminals, the slavers to be presies, and in return you would get the coordinates of a old, probably untouched battlefield, selling those relics could make you a lot of credits."

 

[Christian Slade]

Christian rocked back against the chain link fence while sitting on his stool. As he did he took a couple deep breaths to calm himself. He wouldn't fatigue in a fight like this, but then again they didn't keep up with cards. This fight wasn't going to be over until someone went down, and he wasn't planning on that being him, not even with his opponent being a cyborg.

Snatching a bottle of water from one of the ring maidens, Christian turned it up, took a couple gulps and tossed it over the edge of the fence, not caring where it landed or who on. He then shook his head to clear his mind a bit as he ran his right hand up over his head, smoothing back his long, now soaking hair. Slowly standing, Christian calmly strode back into the middle of the ring and stood there plainly, hands down at his sides as he waited.

About five seconds later, the bell was struck by one of the spectators telling them their time was up and it was time to get back to it. As the bell sounded, Christian lazily looked over at the crowd who cheered for the seconds round to start. He then lazily looked back across the ring to the cyborg. He watched him with those golden eyes, waiting for him to come and start the next round with him, but as he waist, Christian threw his neck to the right, then back to the left, popping his neck and loosening it up a bit.

This fight wasn't going to be over quickly, but he'd be in that round standing tall when a body hit the mat the final time.

Vex laughed Long and loud. The trooper seemed to have forgotten he was on Nal Hutta even the honest men were criminals "You want me to play snitch on my friends and neighbors for a battlefield field full of trinkets" He turned away from the trooper looking over to a pair of mercs "See Tin man out please ... and don't worry about being gentle" Two rather large gamorrean's moved forward. Vex then turned to the crowd "Ladies and gentlemen so sorry to interrupt but this man just tried to pay me to snitch on you all ... I suspend the rule about not fighting outside the ring in this case do what you like to him" He smiled and returned to his lady friend.Some members of the crowd began moving towards @[member="Regor Laxvan"]

 

[Regor Laxvan]

Regor, smiled, throwing a termol detonator into the crowd, firing at vex guards and the people moving toward him well making his way to the exit, dropping a grenade behind him well he ran true the door* @[member="Vex Tythion "]

 

[Christian Slade]

Christian wasted no time as the next round started. He darted across the ring, intent on tackling his opponent and bringing him to the ground. He might have the advantage wrestling the cyborg, but he wasn't sure with the creature's raw strength. As he neared him, though, the explosion went off in the crowd, shaking the room, a ripple of energy rushing over everyone, including the pair in the ring.

It threw Christian off balance, his footing being effected as he stumbled into the cage next to @[member="Hannibal Oryen"]. Staring at the Cyborg for a moment, Christian's golden eyes finally departed from him and looked on in the crowd as he walked carefully across the ring. His eyes were searching for the culprit, who had also opened fire on the group that the rather short man had been leading around.

Finally he spotted @[member="Regor Laxvan"], who he hadn't recognized. He seemed to be the man causing the commotion, however, and he hated having a fight interrupted. Not thinking about the fact that no one knew of his... abilities, Christian rared back the threw his palm out towards Regor, a bubble of dense, force energy rippling through the air right at the man intent on striking him and throwing him into the stone wall he was next to.

The mercs were about to give chase but vex gestured for them to leave him. As for christians show of force it did suprise Vex but not enough to cause him to do anything other than raise an eyebrow. "Does anyone know that fools name ?" Vex asked boredom evident in his voice. He waited a moment then shrugged "Forget it he isn't worth my time however I will reward anyone who brings me his battered body ... or a piece of his body" He said before returning to the women on his lap. With the commotion now over the referee struck the bell to announce the beginning of the next round. Word would be spread around nal hutta to hurt the tin man Vex was sure. There were no innocents on Nal hutta. The trooper would soon learn that snitches (And those who employ them) get stitches
