193 Near Disasters
Video/Action at Hinode Dojo
[Niko begins with the rhythmic pattern that is a time-honored tradition between fist and punching bag. The muffled impact of his knuckles against leather produces a disciplined, even sound. It's the small tells one has to watch for as he methodically strikes out: the features too carefully schooled to neutrality, the absence of protective gloves or tape on his hands.
Eventually he stops, takes a deep breath, turns his back and walks away. He only makes it one step before he spins and lands a vicious kick in the center of the bag that tears the leather free of its chains. His momentum puts enough force behind the fist he forms of his right hand that he has no trouble putting it through the wall.
From start to finish, his expression never changes, and his voice remains silent.]
