She brought her forearm up to block the blow, and felt it numb her arm all the way to the elbow. Biting her lip to keep from screaming in pain she swept her body around, one foot extended to catch the Nord's other foot before he'd fully gotten his balance. He came falling down upon his back, and she reached over quickly to slam her hand against the side of his head. His eyes rolled into the back of his head, and she looked around before deciding to get back up again.<br/><br/>She found the Khajiit there offering her a hand up, and taking it she rose to her feet. Just then a bottle of who knows what came crashing down on his furry head, and he went down hard. She'd barely been listening to the story he'd been telling, but she agreed that this was enough, however to actually end the melee quickly she'd have to resort to magic, and now that the Khajiit was on his rump, the remaining Nords thought they had a pretty good chance at taking her down.<br/><br/>Now that Lucretia didn't have as much room to move, they might be right, especially if she didn't want to leave the cat to take a few feet to the ribs.<strong>"By the Nine, I hope helping me up was worth it."</strong>It might come off as her chastising him, but her meaning was more along the lines of whether she could keep the other off of him for that time. Despite her mind working through the scenarios where they walked away with all the aggressor Nords on the floor, she was having a great deal of fun.<br/><br/><em>It's been a year since I had this much fun, well better make the most of it. We'll be in the dungeons tonight. At least I don't have to pay for a room...</em>She thought darkly, before the one who'd hit the Khajiit with the bottle came rushing her. She took a hit to the shoulder as his first swing came fast, and she wasn't able to dodge as fast or as far as she'd like. It hurt, but then his other hand had her by her other hand as was drawing he to him.<br/><br/>His big arms warapped around her and he was squeezing the breath from her, while the one that had gone down with her a few seconds before got to his feet and was making his way to the Cat. Lucretia brought her head back and snapped it into the bear hugging Nords nose, feeling the throbbing sting to her forehead even as the Nords nose broke and blood coated his face, and spread to hers as well. It was a little more than she'd planned but the big man lossened his grip, and she brought the toe of her boot to his groin, before swinging down with her elbow to clip him in the jaw.<br/><br/>Another down, but the other Nord now had enough time with the Khajiit to do some damage, she just hoped he'd recovered enough to defend himself while she'd been dealing with the one who'd knocked him on his ass. That was when she heard the door open, and booted feet stomp on into the tavern.<strong>"Stay your fists, you're all under arrest until we get this mess sorted out!"</strong>The booming voice brought most of the room quiet, and she just glanced back at the Cat before walking towards her pack. She wouldn't dare leave it and it's contents to be sorted by the guards without her being present.
