Moment of Awesome - Angelo Espinosa/Skin: Teaming up during the battle for District X, Angelo and Inez Temple manage to enjoy themselves in the middle of a brawl.


"Them filthy muties can't take us all at once!"

"There's only two! We have the advantage!"

This strategy was echoed down the line, and the remaining assailants all started to group for a single, desperate rush to win their prize of ridding the world of some mutant children.

They hadn't exactly been subtle about their intentions, and Angelo had reacted with the first shout. The children had been shuffled into a tight knot behind him as he turned to face the threat, his skin defences rippling and shifting to focus only on that side. "Outlaw? You take the half on the right, I'll go left."

"Y'got it, Skin," she replied, cracking her knuckles and veering off to the right, mumbling how apparently they hadn't just seen her take out a bunch of them at the same time and how she could in face take out many of them at once.

"Groupin' together," she grunted, punching one man out cold, "jus' means I ain't got t'go so far," she added, spinning and kicking another man in the midsection, doubling him over, "t'lick the shit out of y'all," she finished, clenching her hands together and swinging up and through the doubled-over mans chin, sending him bowling backwards into another oncoming pair, then smashing her hands down to take out another.

"It's real cute you think you have the advantage", Angelo said cheerfully, clotheslining three more attackers with a stiffly stretched out limb of skin. "You know, the youth club has cameras covering all of this. I'll have to put it on YouTube."

Inez snickered at that as she brought her fist into the face of yet another of their enemies before activating her comms. "We've got the kids an' are escortin' 'em out, slowly but surely... they had t'make it hard but we're equal t'the task," she said between punches and parrying blows. "Will radio when - ugh," she paused, absorbing a kick to her solar plexus before taking the assailant's leg and yeeting him a dozen feet or more into a nearby wall, "when we're all clear, over."
