Big Guns For Bing-Gan

[Corwin]

"Go get them, tiger," Bing Gan says in a dry monotone, slapping Hao Long on his back lightly. She keeps on looking at the robbers in amusement, leaning on her staff to stealthily adjust her grip on it so that she now holds her hand next to the release switch for the scythe.

[Kwokinator]

"No thanks," Hao Long shakes his head emphatically as he starts to back away slowly, his hands up and shaking to show the lack of hostility, then tries to hide behind Bing Gan as he gets near her. "You know I don't fight."

[Corwin]

"Oh, how disappointing," Bing Gan says with a pout, before turning to address the leader, "Anyway, I don't actually have money, so I can't pay any tolls. Mind if I pass?"

[Kwokinator]

"Well, if you can't pay with money," the man on the right declares as he steps forward with a lecherous grin. "You can pay with your body, it looks nice enough."

However, before he can complete his first step forward, he suddenly kneels on the ground on one knee as if someone kicked his leg out.  With a loud growl, he lifted the large spiked club and gets back up, then rushes at Bing Gan.

[Corwin]

With a sigh at the predictable lameness of criminals, Bing Gan twirls her staff and makes an upwards slash with its concealed blade, opening it. Seeing that the guy is apparently going for an overhead swing, she aims between his legs, temporarily hardening the wood.

OOC:
Of the staff.  >_>

[Kwokinator]

The would-be robber whimpers, his staff stopping an inch above Bing Gan's head, and collapses onto the ground, writhing while clutching his manly parts.

With a loud war cry, the remaining two robbers rushes at Bing Gan with weapons at hand, seemingly deeming Hao Long to be no threat.

[Corwin]

Bing Gan retreats, circling to the left as she does so to bring her closer to the bandit with the staff. She retracts the blade, ready to block and counter-attack with her own staff.

[Corwin]

Without pivoting or retreating, the bandit adjusted his grip on his staff and performs a backhanded strike, aimed at Bing Gan's head.

Bing Gan doesn't try to overpower him, choosing to do the splits instead and let his staff pass over her head, thrusting her own upwards at an angle at the bandit's chin.

The man simply tilted his head to a side and let Bing Gan's staff sail harmlessly through the air, and retaliates with a low horizontal swing at Bing Gan's head, as the other bandit circles to Bing Gan's other side, his dao ready to strike.

Bing Gan triggers the blade again, and shifts her grip on her staff towards its middle, lunging forward. She pulls on the staff hard, arching the scythe at the back of the staff-holding bandit's neck, while keeping an eye on the other one, ready to block any of his strikes with the other end of the staff.

Since the man doesn't have eyes in the back of his head, he doesn't realize what Bing Gan is trying to do, and almost reacts too late as he ducks at the last second when he feels a chilling air approaching his neck, and skin gets scrapped off the back of his neck, clipping a large chunk of his hair off.  At the same time, the dao-wielding bandit prepares to slice Bing Gan in half with an overhead swing.  With a loud "YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!", Hao Long launched himself at the bandit to try and save his companion, and ends up tumbling out of Bing Gan's sight along with the would-be robber.

She calls out, "Nice!" to Hao Long appreciatively, while retracting the blade once more, and twirling the staff vertically, hardening it as she tries to bring its other end on top of the scalped bandit's head.

Her opponent rolls to a side to avoid the scythe-blade of the staff, and presses his hand on the ground to come to an abrupt stop as he clears to safety, doing a low sweep with his staff at Bing Gan.

Bing Gan backflips, pushing off the ground with her left hand to assist her, and settles into a defensive stance, holding the staff at its end. Her arms on it are at a shoulder width, and she holds it at chest level, its other end towards the staff-wielding bandit. She also takes a moment to assess the situation.

Bing Gan sees that the would-be molester continues to lie on the ground with a pained, faraway look in his eyes, not moving in the slightest, his hand still cupping his manliness.  Behind her, the third bandit seemingly lies unconscious on the ground as Hao Long seems to approach him cautiously, kicking the downed man's sides to make sure he's not awake.  

Bing Gan approaches him slowly, jabbing at his midsection once she gets in range.

The man bats Bing Gan's staff aside with his hand, and uses the horizontal momentum to put more power into his swing, executed with his right hand, aimed at her waist.

Bing Gan pulls on her staff, bringing it downwards diagonally to force the tip her opponent's weapon down, trying to see if she can run it into the ground before it reaches her.

With his weapon forced down to the ground, the man pushes off into a handspring with his hands, ending his somersault with an axe kick to Bing Gan's head.

She slides to the side to avoid the kick, bringing her staff on a directly reciprocal direction to her earlier strike.

Since the man is still in the air as Bing Gan striked, he can do nothing but brace himself for impact, and ends up crashing into the ground on his side, scraping his arm bloody.

Bing Gan presses her advantage, advancing on him and jabbing several times at the ground where he lies, aiming for his midsection once more.

The man rolls horizontally on the ground to avoid the jabs, and comes to rest with a sweep of his staff, aiming to hit both the staff off target and sweep out Bing Gan's legs.

Bing Gan tries to block with her own staff, and turn that movement into a strike at his arms by sliding the staff down against his weapon towards them.

The bandit drops the weapon to prevent from getting hit, and rolls backwards and onto his feet, then launches himself at Bing Gan with a sidekick.

Bing Gan holds her staff at chest level again, and thrusts it to meet the bandit's attack, using the hand holding her staff's other end to direct it towards her opponent's groin.

Predictably, the man whimpers and collapses in pain, much like his comrade has done moments before.

Smirking, she approaches him, kicking his staff away, and hits him several more times in the same place.

The man just whimpers more, unable to do much else in his tremendous pain.

[Kwokinator]

"Geez, what's with you and guys' groins?" Hao Long approaches the victorious Bing Gan with a smirk. "I guess I better watch myself around you if I want to keep my equipment intact."

[Corwin]

"Not really, it only seems to happen to villains," she tells him with a bright smile.

[Kwokinator]

"I guess I better watch out then," Hao Long answers with a grin. "If I turn into a bad guy I'd get my equipment smashed in."

[Corwin]

"Occupational hazard," she agrees happily, nodding. Making sure the bandits are really out of it and not faking it, she proceeds to loot them.

[Kwokinator]

Hao Long shook his head at the girl's antics.

"You know, by looting people like that, aren't you reducing yourself to essentially being a bandit, too?"

[Corwin]

"They're bad people," Bing Gan says patiently, giving Hao Long a long look. "The money is not theirs. It belongs to the poor, helpless people they robbed. I'll just be holding onto it until one of those unfortunate souls asks for it back."

OOC: What's my loot, bitch?  :p

[Kwokinator]

Hao Long opens his mouth as if he wants to say something, but closes it again.

"Whatever," he waves it off as Bing Gan picks up a small money bag from each of the bandits. "Better you have it than them."
