Yusuke

[keichan]

[ from here ]

Don't worry!

[ And with that, he's running off not so much into the fray as he is running tangentially to it. His new weapon helps him feel secure, and since he looks like he means business, nobody seems to be targeting him. But he's making his way to the guarded exit in a very roundabout way, not wanting them to see him coming head-on.

He just sort of disappears behind an overturned table for a moment, one that seems to be the final resting place of a few unfortunate players, then emerges from behind it unarmed with a tear in his pant leg and what looks to be a lot of blood smeared all over his leg. With a limp, he hobbles in the direction of the exit, doing his best to look like he's trying to avoid detection.

Sure enough, the NPCs start to turn their attention to him. It looks like they've caught what looks like an easy kill. ]

Gaaaaah! It's not fair for you bastards to gang up on someone who's injured like that!

[ He starts limp-running away from them back toward the table, where he happened to leave his weapon tucked away, as he gets pursued by three of the five opponents, who seem to be in no hurry to catch him. The other two stay at their post, but two guys armed with a battleaxe and a crowbar? He's willing to bet his new friend can take care of that. ]

[Yusuke keeps a careful eye on Keiichi as he continues to fend off the NPCs, making sure he's not too distracted by fighting to see what the other boy was up too. So he wasn't doing the direct route-- that was smart. A lot smarter than what Yusuke would have done, anyway. A flying shuriken drags his attention from Keiichi for just a moment, and Yusuke delivers a swift kick to it's owner to knock them down for the time being. Once he turns his head again, Keiichi seems-- gone??

It throws him for a second, worried that the guy got ambushed or dragged away while he wasn't looking, but he breathes a temporary sigh of relief when he sees him stagger out again. Where did his weapon go? Did he get attacked and someone stole it? That wound on his leg did look nasty...

The other opponents out for the count at the moment, Yusuke edges his way over to the door, still watching Keiichi to see if he was still going through with the plan, now that he was injured. It seemed like it, he was approaching the other NPCs-- ah, but now they were chasing him. That wasn't good. Taking a running start, he charges his fist up with spirit energy and wallops the guy with the battleax in the ribs. He yanks the ax away from the now wheezing and doubled over NPC, only to use it to pry the crowbar away from the other one. Taking said crowbar, he chucks it in the direction of one of the pursuing NPCs, hoping to knock them out before they hit Keiichi.]

KEEP GOING!

[ The key to putting on a good act is to be so convincing that you even convince the people you're working alongside. The blood on Keiichi's leg isn't his, as unseemly as it seems, and when Yusuke makes his move, it's time for Keiichi to make his. His pursuers, distracted by the seemingly more dangerous opponent (and to be fair, by Keiichi's estimate, Yusuke could probably take a dozen Keiichis in a fight), turn around just in time for him to grab his club from the ground, turn on them, and kick the closest one squarely into the back with his "injured" leg, causing them to collide together just as the crowbar hits them. ]

I'm okay! They fell for it... now's our chance!

[ Seeing their numbers reduced to more even footing, the other NPCs realize they're outmatched. Their self-preservation kicks in, and they turn tail and run. The exit is now open... and also now in danger of becoming a choke point when everyone else realizes it, so they'd better hurry. ]
