"okay then" she smiled and turned around. The guy was big... it would take a good blow to knock him down. "lets get started..." with a swift turn she kicked upwards connecting with his jaw knocking him flat on his back. She quickly moved on top of him trying to pin his arms down.
"so lets try this again...why are you here?"

Ricky wasn't expecting that. The pain seemed to shoot right through his whole body.
This girl was strong. He skidded back a few feet from her, his hand clenching his jaw.
So.... apparently she wasn't THAT type of girl. NO matter. he could take care of things. He was annoyed now.
His eyes narrowed. "And again. I'll say: A little bit of SOMEthin'... Somethin' you ain't got no business knowing."
This dame was trouble.
Placing his fingers to his lips, he whistled loud.
A signal.
"I know you're gunna be sorry you messed with me lady."
Taking sight of the crowbar he had momentarily set down. with a forceful swing, he lunged forward and attempted to swing at her.

"nah I think you were the right kind of guy to mess with..." she easily dodged his attempted blow and kicked him in the butt causing his momentum to send him sprawling to the ground.
" I think you and I are going to have a little fun together." she smiled and waited for him to get back up. Looks like she might finally get the decent fight she had been looking for.

Ricky fell, almost face first into a pile of crates. He attempted to grab ahold of his bearings before attempting again.
Hearing the call from a few rows of pallets back, Lee came running forward, seeing the whole action that occurred in front of him.
He turned quickly seeing the blonde. He couldn't let Ricky get disgraced like that. Dragging his baseball bat, he attempted to skid low and aimed for Dinah's right leg when her back was turned.
-wham!!-

Dinah knew better than to not pay attention to her surroundings but her focus wasn't all there and there was a sudden pain in her leg as they guy connected with a bat. She hissed slightly. Damn that is going to bruise...
"okay now you just pissed me off" she waited for him to attack again
as the guy took another swing at her this time for her head she rotated grabbing the bat with her right hand and connected her left foot with the guys temple knocking him away from her and releasing the bat. she tossed the bat out of reach and checked her surroundings, she really didn't know how many of them were here and she sure as hell wasn't going to let another take a cheap shot.

As Lee attempted to get another swing in, he was taken aback by a swift kick to the head. And for being a small guy, he sure was flung far.
Ricky reestablished himself and decided to take the world by storm. He was still jostled by the kick, but still found enough force allow his fists to fly right at the small of Dinah's back. "Muh Momma always told me never to hit a lady-- but in THIS case. The rule's gettin' broken--!"
He attempted to all his body to dip low and strike her side. "BAIL--!!!" he called out. He needed to make sure his boys got out of the factory well enough. Lee was already knocked out cold.
Once he felt he was at a great enough distance away, he took off, heading for the door.

Dinah took a good kidney shot from the big guy but quickly got out of the way of the rest of his attack blocking his attempts to hit her. "my mother always told me if I man hits you than you better kick his ass..." she connected another hit with his jaw when just as suddenly as the fight began the guy and the rest of his crew decided to flee.
"oh no you don't..." Dinah quickly took off after them down the alleyway tackling the big guy to the ground.
"Where do you think your going?"

What was it with this lady--?! She just kept coming and coming.
Ricky felt his lower body being enveloped and hit the alley's asphalt hard. The way his head hit the pavement, he thought he was seeing stars. And just when he thought he was getting away too.
He spun around to throw his new sneaker into her face. He needed to get her off him.
But then.. that was when Ricky noticed a mass of three to five frames start to circle around the blonde's back.
"Oh.... NOwhere..." he grinned back to her. "But i think YOU are going to the hospital..."
Ricky's crew may have seemed like they had left him, but instead, they had returned with the single ambition to assist their friend.
No man left behind, and all of that.
A man in a bulky dark blue sweatshirt, came out with two baseball bats. One of which, wrapped with barbed wire. He was fast as he cracked the first swing onto the nameless blonde's rib cage.
Another man, dressed in black, quickly closed in. "Don't let her leave this place alive!" he hissed

"is that so..." Dinah lifted her arm to punch him only to be stricken with a mass amount of pain and the familiar crack of broken bones as the man struck her with a bat to the rib cage, It hit so hard it almost felt like it had dug in to her skin. Dinah had forgotten rule number one again, twice in the same fight...what the hell is wrong with me. She cried out and moved off of the guy and tried to get up to face her new attackers.
As she stood up the pain shooting through her ribs made her realize that her left side was pretty much useless, she wouldn't be able to throw a punch without creating more pain and leaving her open. The lack of being able to take a deep breath also rendered her abilities useless... these guys just got a really lucky break and Canary realized she might be in trouble....
"you boys always find in necessary to bring your little toys with you....didn't anyone ever teach you to fight like a man?" Dinah moved into a defensive stance to try to fend off any attack and activated her coms. "oracle I might have gotten myself into a little situation" she said under her breath.

Closing the fridge door, Barbara heard Dinah's sudden voice in her ear. "I was just trying to figure out where you may have run off to." she said uncapping the bottle of water she just pulled out. Even though she could have just pooped up a locator beacon on Dinah, she still liked to just... ASK sometimes. "What's wrong--"
Ricky, forced himself to stand before managing to hobble over to her. "Always come prepared, lady! That's what i always say!!"
Barbara scowled. "Who is that?" She dropped the water and quickly wheeled herself over to her station. Her fingers attempting to get a trace on Dinah's location. Forget waiting for an answer. She was going to get one now.
"Dinah-- Hang on-- Can you give me a visual--??"
One of the nameless thugs, came up from behind Dinah and pulled her into a headlock. "Time to say night night, girlie--!"

Dinah grunted as she was jerked down into a headlock. She slammed her heel hard on his foot loosening her grip and jabbed him hard in the ribs with her elbow causing him to let go.
"Were you prepared for that?" she reached up and turned on her camera as another guy came came at her.
She did her best to avoid his punches protecting her rib cage from any further damage. When the timing was right a quick kick to the stomach caused the guy to double over and a swift uppercut knocked him flat on his back. Dinah's confidence started to rise again. Maybe she didn't' need her left arm to beat the crap out of these thugs.
"that all you guys got?"

From behind her glowing monitors, Barbara worked fast. The signal that pullled up from Canary's com, was rerouted as a S.O.S message to any avaliable operative within the general location to where she was at. She activated her wide-range secure broadcast, calling any Agent forces that may have happened to tune in, or have an active reaching signal in rage.
To anyone that happened to catch it, a synthesized voice would be there to greet them."I have an Alpha-Zero Priority and need assistance to any avaliable Operative within the area. Transmitting coordinates to you. Please respond."
As soon as the message was sent, she kept listening in on Canary's scuffling. "What's going ON, Dinah? i need you to talk to me if you're not going to give me a set of visuals. I need descriptions." Old terminology resurfaced. Spelling out exactly what the attackers looked like or what they were wearing would assist in trying to figure out who was on her... if that.
One man, average in height, stepped forward as he attempted to rush through his 'brothers'. The glint of a single piece of metal came down in an arc as it collided with Canary's leg. Maybe it would be better to render the woman in a state where she couldn't flee first.
Ricky stepped back, his check now covered in blood from an open wound that cut across his forehead. He was annoyed. He was pissed.
Who the hell was this lady? She sure as heck knew how to fight. That was apparent. She pretty much was tearing his crew a new one. Well, some were having more luck than others.
And to think, he thought tonight was going to be an easy night.
He had to take the home-town advantage.
Wincing as he stepped forward, almost seeming to creep out from the shadows behind. Pulling a trashcan lid that had slid off of a nearby can, he took it as a new weapon.
And NOW... did he know how to improvise.
Inhaling, he ran at the blond from behind, the can lid down at his side. He he could get one solid hit in--
"Say night-night--!"
-CRACK--!
Ricky landed a hit to the back of the woman's head, right near the temple.

Dinah tried to adjust her camera as it was obvious Oracle wasn't catching anything, so much for her new fangled technology. "Better?"
Dinah saw the guy come rushing at her with what looked like a pipe, she tried to dodge him but the guy landed another hard blow to the same leg his fellow thug had. Dinah fell to one knee.
As she tried to get back up she turned slightly as she heard the footsteps running behind her only to be met with a solid blow to the head. She hit the ground hard with everything around her spinning. She mustered every ounce of energy she had to keep from blacking out. She knew if she passed out that would be it.
Canary was able to pick herself up on all fours only to be kicked hard in her already broken ribs. She cried out in pain and landed flat on her back. This was not good, not good at all.
Dinah knew that she would meet her match some day but this? this was not at all how she pictured going out, she could read the headlines now. Black Canary taken out by a couple of street thugs...this couldn't be happening....maybe she was still dreaming, but the pain coursing through her body told her otherwise.
As she continued her fight with consciousness she tried to move herself in a position where she could at least attempt to defend herself as the men approached. There seemed to be more of them than she thought but then again her head was still spinning.

"Thanks--"
As a HD PoV image popped up Barbara was met with a real time view of everything that was going on. She grimaced as one of the thugs came in front of her field of vision, resulting in Canary's yelp in pain.
"Just--"
That was when she suddenly saw asphalt. Bright lights shadowed by a series of feet surrounding her. "DINAH--!" she was practically screaming into her com. "GET UP. DON'T you DARE do this to me--!!"
As the blonde woman fell to the ground with a thud, Ricky looked down upon the madness that was a lump of blonde hair and fishnets that was in front of him. He gave a satisfied smirk and tossed the partially bloody trash-can lid to slide along the brick of the building and slid down with a loud clatter.
"You can call me Mr. Sandman.." he gloated. A line mostly for his crew.
Barbara's hands were shaking. It was as if she were about to see her best friend being murdered in front of her.
Almost as if her worst fears were being played out right in front of her. Gripping the armrests of her chair, she seethed. Whoever this crew was..... wherever they lived--
They had just better hope that they were toast before she got her hands on them.
A wave of faded greens and whites seemed to flash before her eyes. It was fast and everything seemed to be coming out so lucid. So... real.
Though..something seemed hazy.
Was this a hallucination? Was she dreaming right now?
Then why on Earth did things feel so extremely real?
"DINAH--!!" her voice sounded like it was underwater. It seemed like her limbs were heavy, slow to move. Every movement seemed out of place somehow, at yet, the lucidity of it, held her with the confines of a heightened reality.
That was where she saw everything. One of the nameless men... that big guy that had called himself 'Mr. Sandman" or whatever it was, pulled a gun from his hip and cocked.
A flash followed by a loud, echoing howl of a bang. Followed by several other shots rang out.
Her heart sank. "DINAH--! PLEASE--?!"
A limp hand of Dinah's hand fell before her. Trickling blood leaking from the new wounds that had just been created.
"Dinah......?" Barbara's cheeks glittered with tears. She gasped for air. Feeling like her entire world was closing in on her.
She was helpless.
She could do nothing.
She had just watched her best friend die right before her eyes.
All a hallucination, was the truth. But Barbara...? She didn't know that. She burst into tears, pent up rage, sadness, and frustration flowing within her leaving her in a hushed huddle mess, basking in the glow of her monitors.

Dinah could heard Barbara screaming at her through her coms. It was at least keeping her awake. She couldn't imagine what Barbara was going through Dinah wasn't afraid to die but she was afraid of what it would do to her family, She knew all to well the consequences of that. a single tear fell from her eye as she spoke.
"I'm sorry...." that was all she could get out before the biggest of the group picked her up by the throat and slamming her against the wall pinning her just high enough that her feet were not touching. She whimpered slightly at the jolt of pain as she hit the wall trying to get free to no avail. She wasn't going to give them the satisfaction of showing fear or weakness, she wasn't going to beg for her life, she would go out fighting.
