23:04 Hours, December 11, 2012 (Military Calendar), a crowded bar, Miami, Florida.
"Hands off, creep!"
Matt Kenderson looked up. There was a white guy in baggie pants with a backward hat standing over Holly, his hands on either side of her blocking her escape."Hey! Get away from her!"
At six feet, 180 pounds, Matt was an imposing sight, made even more so by his three friends backing him up. First and foremost was Jamie Campbell. The other two, girls, Scarlett Miller, known to them as Scar, and Holly Dayne, the one the man in the hoodie had been messing with.
Jamie stepped in front of Scar, placing himself between her and the man as well as next to Matt in case he should need back up.
The hoodie guy scowled. "What, are you gonna rough me up, punk?" And at that, Hoodie's posse appeared and stood at the guy's shoulder, arms crossed. Matt rolled his eyes. Here they went with the whole macho-scripted clichés.
"We're kinda hoping it won't come to that." Jamie growled. "For your sake."
"Watch your mouth, buddy. You must be what, sixteen?" The posse chuckled. They were all above 21.
"Yeah. That just makes it all the more humiliating when I mail your butt back to you in a pringles can." Jamie continued.
"That's it, punk. Lemme teach you a lesson."
"I wouldn't advise that." Matt said, stepping in front of Jamie before he dropped the guy.
"You first! Come on!" The Baggy pants took a swing at Matt.
"He did warn you." Scar sighed before taking a step back.
After having ducked under the swing, Matt stepped forward and threw his fist into the man's stomach. The man collapsed to his knee and coughed a couple of times. Hoodie looked up and glared at Matt. Matt stepped in towards the guy and clocked him solidly in the mouth. The hoodie guy tried to rise to his knees, but Matt stepped in again and kicked the guy's ribs.
Matt turned to Holly, who had retreated to Scar's side behind Jamie."You okay?"
She started to say something when Jamie cut her off
"Matt watch-" It came to late. The man had stood back up and tackled Matt. He was about to punch the teenager when Jamie rammed him into the wall. With that the rest of Baggy Pants' posse jumped in. It became an all out brawl. Matt was taking on two guys while Jamie was backed into a wall fending off three others. Baggy Pants and two others walked towards the girls.
