Victory for Golden Girl!

***

Initiative Order is Mercury (his bonus is higher), Mafia Princess(MP), Minion*2, Golden Girl

Mercury uses TakeDown+Move-By Action and the fact that he is a speedster to try and take down the 2 minions

First attack hits: 22 [17+8] https://orokos.com/roll/992126

Second Attack hits: 27 [19+8] https://orokos.com/roll/992127

Minions 1 roll Toughness: 16 [10+6] https://orokos.com/roll/992128

Minion 2 roll Toughness: 17 [11+6] https://orokos.com/roll/992129

Both Minions are taken out :D immediately! Things aren't looking good for our Mafia Princess.

***

As GG and the young Chinese Woman stare each other down, they both see a blur slam into the two henchmen, grabbing them and removing them from sight. The Kung Fu Girl looks confused and slightly worried, but GG isn't. Because she knows what just happened. Mercury took out both of her minions, turning this fight to their advantage.

Mafia Princess attacks GG because she is closer with a Punch: 15 [7+8] https://orokos.com/roll/992130

15 HITS! GG has to roll Toughness +10 v DC 23: 28 [18+10] https://orokos.com/roll/992131

***

Even though she isn't sure what happened, the Mafia Princess doesn't waste any time as she charges at GG with her fists. As Golden Girl watches the fist (which is glowing with some kind of supernatural energy) move towards her, GG tries to block the blow but fails. As the fist connects with her face the young girl's eyes widen in surprise while GG simply smiles excitedly in return.

Oh, that is two Degrees of Failure! -1 Bruise and Dazed until the end of their next turn.

***

"My turn" Golden Girl doesn't waste the opportunity, her fist connecting with the super villain's, sending the women recoiling back in dazed surprise as she regains her footing.

NAT 20! I suppose we wouldn't want the fight to end too quickly. But it is nice to see someone else get the shit beat out of them for a change!

***

But the Mafia Supervillain stumbles, Mercury moves in a fast blur and GG can tell that he got another hit in. However, she manages to shake off the blow and keeps her focus on GG.

Kung Fun Punch+8 vs Parry 15: 12 [4+8] https://orokos.com/roll/992140

Damn, Princess is a bit of a bitch, isn't she :))

***

The Kung Fu Princess punches GG directly in the chest. But GG hardly even feels the blow. She grins down at the smaller woman and tries to hit her with a hay maker. The swing goes wide and the girl uses it as an opportunity to not only redirect the blow, but to push GG as she tries to kick her.

A kick that goes completely wide, putting them both back into the same position they were a few seconds ago.

Mercury Punches+8 vs parry 18: 16 [8+8] https://orokos.com/roll/992141

Back to Kung Fu Princess's Turn. Just standing here she will lose. So She moves and fires of an Energy Blast at Golden Girl

Ranged+8 vs Dodge 12: 27 [19+8] https://orokos.com/roll/992142

HITS! GG save toughness+10 vs DC 22(yes it is lower): 20 [10+10] https://orokos.com/roll/992143

GG gets a Bruise! So, Kung Fu Princess is trying to keep her distance, but BOTH of them have Speed 2/Leaping 2 so GG can catch back up and go for a punch again.

***

Mercury comes in for another attack, but he isn't able to catch the young martial artist off guard anymore. Her anger visible on her face, but knowing that the fight isn't going her way, the China girl turns around and starts running, spending a moment to fire an energy blast at GG.

An energy blast which hits her directly in the face. "I think she just broke your nose..."

GG's hand comes to her face and sure enough, her glove comes back covered in blood. "You fucking bitch!" Fury fueled by her pain, GG charges at the young woman.

Nope, but MP also isn't getting away from Mercury either.

HITS! Mercury Touchness+8 vs DC 22: 25 [17+8] https://orokos.com/roll/992147

***

Almost blinded with anger, GG leaps at the china girl but goes wide. Still running, the Martial Artist manages to roll out of the way of Mercury's attempt to strike her. As he blurs past her, the martial artist fires off another energy blast, but targets the speedster this time.

As GG watches the ball of spiritual fire connect with the young speedster, she feels her heart stop beating for a moment with worry. When she sees that he appears mostly unharmed GG turns her attention back to the running woman and JUMPS!

***

Well, back to GG leaping at and trying to SMASH!

GG Punch+6 vs Parry 18: 23 [17+6] https://orokos.com/roll/992148

HITS! Toughness+8-2 vs DC 25: 25 [18+7] https://orokos.com/roll/992149

***

As she flies through the air at the Martial Artist she lands right next in front of the women. Crouched down in front of her, she takes a moment to grin as she punches the woman in the gut. While the blow connects, the woman manages to roll with the blow, negating the **** of GG's punch.

GG now has Bruises(-2), but she tries to punch again

GG Punch+6 vs Parry 18: 10 [4+6] https://orokos.com/roll/992153

***

Mercury dashes towards the Mafia Martial Artist, but the girl easily dodges his attack, flipping towards GG as she does so. A flip which the turns into a flying hammer blow to the top of GG's skull. "Big stupid cow."

***

Mercury Punch+8 vs Parry 18: 26 [18+8] https://orokos.com/roll/992154

Note; Mercury's punch has the "Multiattack" modifier

"To use a Multiattack against a single target, make your attack check normally. If successful, increase the attack’s resistance check DC by +2 for two degrees of success, and +5 for three or more. This circumstance bonus does not count against power level limits."

MP Toughness+8-1 vs DC 23+2 (Multiattack): 14 [7+7] https://orokos.com/roll/992155

So, 25-14=11 which is 3 degrees of failure. Mafia Princess is Staggered and takes another -1 to Toughness. Since she is staggered she can't move, so her only choice is to fight and try and take out GG.

HITS! And I didn't even have to use a Hero Point :P

Mafia Princess Toughness+8-2 vs DC 25: 14 [8+6] https://orokos.com/roll/992159

Mafia Princess was already Staggered, so failing another check knocks her out!

About Time Golden Girl found her groove :D

***

As GG is brought down to her knees, she ties to focus on the woman in front of her. She swings her fist at where she thinks the girl is, but hits nothing but air.

GG can practically hear the woman grin as she taunts her. "Oh, is the big cow having trouble?"

GG spits a bit of blood at the woman's feet. "You know, you should really pay attention to your surroundings."

Hype-focused on GG, the China Woman doesn't notice Mercury coming in directly behind her, striking her multiple times in the back. The woman staggers forward towards GG, using the forward momentum to bring her fist moving towards Golden Girls face.

Seeing the blow coming and knowing she won't be able to dodge, GG grits her teeth and tanks woman's Chi Enhanced blow. Taking advantage of the opportunity GG swings her fist and with a final mighty blow punches the woman in the gut. Bowing over in pain the china woman collapses onto the ground, **** and defeated.

Grunting as she stands up, GG takes a moment to glare at the woman on the ground. "Bitch." She then spits onto the woman.

Author's Notes: Well, that could have gone a lot better for the criminals. I'm honestly just glad to see GG not act incompetently for a change. But in the future I'll have to even the fight out a little more by having the henchmen NOT be "Minions". Still, that leaves the question of "what now?"
