Good think he still remembered the foot part of saw foot. Making a grab for the broom (after all, weapons are weapons in times are need,) he went back to carefully circling the perimeter, trying to stay out of the crazy red girl's way. He couldn't protect himself from bullets at this time and he knew it.

[weaponsparked]

Oh no he didn't. That was Sideswipe's damned broom. And he rather liked his makeshift weapon.

"Get your own broom, organic..."

Still on the ground, he made a lunge for his attacker's foot, hoping to bring him down and wrestle the wooden weapon away from him.

[legberjack]

"THE FUCK YOU CALLIN' ORGANIC, I'M A CH-"

Giriko caught his words, but not his balance. Falling to the floor, he instinctively attempted to hold his enemy at arm's length, while holding the broom as far away as possible. FUCK YOU, HE STOLE THIS FAIR AND SQUARE, YOU CUNT

[beheadofworship]

However, what Giriko didn't see coming was another enemy.

An enemy he would never seem to shake.

A foot came stomping down on his face.

[weaponsparked]

His knee hurt--design flaw, leaving his legs more sensitive than the rest of his body--but he pushed himself more or less up on his hands and knees, grabbing for the broom. If he leaned backward, he'd have the leverage over this human.

"You--"

And then a foot impacted his enemy's face. Sideswipe jerked back, startled. He hadn't even heard the newcomer approach, let alone attack.

"Er... thank you?" he said, over the sound of rain and brawling.

[legberjack]

Giriko flailed shortly, before working to react. Generally speaking, it's a good idea to remove your foot from the face of your enemies, Justin. Giriko grabbed onto the younger male's leg, and quickly rolled in hopes of sending the preachy boy toppling.

"Stay in your own goddamn business, Father. Or you can't leave the heretic alone?!"

Ignoring Sideswipe momentarily for his eternal rival, Giriko started a low kick to Justin's abdomen.

[beheadofworship]

Justin didn't have anything to say in response to Sideswipe or Giriko at the moment - The attempt to knock him over worked - he landed hard on his stomach, and instantly pushed his arms against the ground to get back up. As such, Giriko's low-aimed kick missed and he was able to put some distance between them, turning around so he could keep fixated on him.

"And miss seeing my two favorite people? Never," he sarcastically commented on Giriko and Asura. He knew he was in no position to fight the Kishin, but the rest of them didn't need an extra annoyance. Justin could stand to fight Giriko again.

[legberjack]

"Listen, Bastard. This ain't your fight. This is between two men and a broom."

Giriko motioned to Sideswipe, then cracked his knuckles. This was the type of activity he had been missing heavily ever since he got here. His face twisted up into that special type of crazy, as his heart rate elevated.

"OI, YOU BASTARDS! I'LL CRUSH BOTH YOUR SMUG FACES - JUST YOU WATCH ME, YOU FAGGOTS."

He launched himself at his rival, in a flurry of aerial kicks - unfortunately keeping his back open in his rage.

[weaponsparked]

They were ignoring him. Anyone else would have taken the proffered exit.

But Sideswipe did not have it in him to enjoy being ignored. The one human--the one who had stomped on the other's face--had done nothing to attack him... and he owed the other payback for whatever had been done to his knee.

They were staring each other down, and he glanced between them briefly, edging sideways toward his attacker. And then he swung the broom with as much force as his kneeling position would allow, aiming for his attacker's own knees--

As said crazed attacked suddenly jumped up in the air. What... the...?

He'd missed, and landed half on his face, rolling once more out of the way. Just needed to get to his feet.

Derp derp we keep editing/posting at the same time

[legberjack]

MEANWHILE, Giriko is still flailing about in blind rage, totes not paying attention to Sideswipe like a jerk, after all, he was able to take care of him with little issue.

Then again, it's poor form to leave your back open in any battle.

[beheadofworship]

Justin would probably have paid Sideswipe more heed if he wasn't blocking a flurry of attacks. He was looking for an opening to grab his leg so he could return the favor by flipping him.

Sorry ^^;

[weaponsparked]

He had to use the broom like a crutch, and then, lean heavily on one leg... but he got to his feet. No pain receptors to shut off. Regardless, he hobbled around behind the little battle. It wasn't his usual style, but... he swung the broom horizontally, aiming to strike the human's spinal struts.

Whatever worked.

NP, my fault as much as yours!

[legberjack]

Giriko was pleased - it was rare for him to get his rival into such a tight position. Clearly enjoying himself, he had taken to broken laughter.

Which, of course, was suddenly silenced with a crack to his spinal column. Screaming a stretch of obscenities, the man backed up the best he could, trying to keep both his enemies in his line of sight this time.

That shitty father he could handle, but the other man seemed like he had more wits than he previously cared to share.

[beheadofworship]

Justin had no idea what Giriko was so pleased about - it wasn't like any of his kicks had landed. Sure, he was on the defensive, but that was about to change -

- and it surely did. In a different way than expected since it was usually only the two of them, but he didn't care about ganging up on a lowlife like Giriko. He gave Sideswipe a quick nod of thanks and took his opportunity to rush in and swing his best punches.

[weaponsparked]

This was more his style. Duck in, hit, and duck back out again. Granted, it would have been so much easier in his other form, or even with a pair of wheels, but he wasn't about to be choosy, seen as the little maneuver had actually worked.

Leaning on the broom handle again, Sideswipe hobbled backward, his human face creased in a weird, mad grin. He still had it!

"Good job watching your back, organic!" he mocked, as the other human took his turn pummeling the first. As that happened, he began moving, as best he could, back around behind them.

[legberjack]

Fuck, without weapon form or enchanting magic, two against one left Giriko at a heavy disadvantage. He wasn't used to playing the defensive at all, and so, he watched.

The father charged him head on, to be expected. That's how they conducted business. Then - from the corner of his eye, he saw the other man, broom in hand, move behind him.

Fukkin' perfect.

Giriko braced himself for the impact, and at the last second he could spare...

he jumped.
