With two men knocked out, two men slowed from both pain and Donovan’s spell, and the last one feral in his attacks, a few groans could be heard from the far table. Seemed a few of the patrons who bet on the five would win felt their money slipping from them. Only two voices laughed in response, clapping hands with each other at the wave of riches they were to expect at the conclusion of this bar fight. The stakes raised even higher when the “damsel in distress” made her way back into the fray once again.<br/><br/>The group huddled closer in anticipation as they watched the patchy-bearded welp wail in pain from the broken elbow. He threw his head back and lurched away from the gambler, just barely inadvertently dodging the incoming elbow. Clutching his arm with his good hand, he growled at Diego ready to throw himself at him again, only to have his attention pulled elsewhere. His eyes caught Loretta’s instantly. “You fucking wench! If you just left with us when I asked you to none of this would have happened!” He gestured to the tavern that had emptied of most of its patrons and workers, the injured drunkards (the two of which that were still conscious quietly making their way towards Diego from behind him), the group of gamblers huddled in the corner, and the sad bard sitting alone with no tune to his song. “This is your fault!” He pointed and spat at her before charging past Diego to tackle her to the ground. The other two men with the limp leg and broken nose got close enough to grab Diego, each one holding an arm from behind and taking care to keep their faces out of reach of his head.<br/><br/>“Go! Go! Take her down!”<br/><br/>“Yeah! You show her!”<br/><br/>The men cheered on their friend as their grips on the gambler’s arms tightened, intending to cut off his circulation. The original slime that had initiated all of this screamed as he jumped at Loretta, arms outstretched towards her, with hopes of taking her down and taking what he wanted. Didn’t matter to him at this point if it was right there in tavern, or in a dark alley, he needed to teach her a lesson.
