He fends it off, but falls into mud

The robe tore as John pulled away, but he lost his balance in the process. Falling backwards into the mud bath.

*PLOP!*

And he was completely submerged beneath the mud.

Petra slyly entered the room, "Seems there is a little bit of fight in him." She said to a nearby employee that had followed her.

The blonde girl was wearing a blue dress and black blazer. "Quite so, mistress."

"Crystal, make sure our new client gets the full arrangement. We can't have another Michelle incident on our hands."

"Michelle?"

"The one that tried to escape last month. We had a nasty time getting her back. Several innocent bystanders that she asked for help became clients themselves. Great advertising, but we didn't have enough demand at the time."

The mud began to bubble. "Oooh, done already?" said Petra excitedly.
