Snippet #2593993

As the car drove off Jackson took a quick look around; seeing no one he commonly hung out with he decided to make his leave. Jackson made mesh-like portals under his feet and around his torso under the jacket. Using this he lifted himself off the ground and into the air. Although he only went high enough to be able to go over most people without notice. Jackson started down the street opposite of where he lived. "I think I'll check out those thugs I saw yesterday. Make sure they aren't causing trouble again."

As he came close to his destination Jackson lifted himself higher into the air. The are here was on the news a few days ago for some thugs that were harassing the residents. Although, rumor has it someone beat them up pretty bad and they hadn't done anything since.

However, as a typical low-life, they clearly didn't learn their lesson. This time they were harassing a couple girls, likely trying to hook up with them.

Jackson lowered himself around the corner so he could get a good surprise on them. And it worked, as seen when he came around the corner and they still didn't notice him. "It seems you need another lesson huh?" The thugs whipped around to see Jackson standing there.

"This time we have an advantage," one of them said as they pulled out knives, k-bars, and chains.

Jackson let out a sigh, wishing he didn't have to obviously use his ability like last time. "I'll show you why that won't make a difference." Jackson flattened his hands and quickly moved them downwards. At the same time as his hands came to a sudden stop his void ability made two blade-like extensions come down. They were as black as the night sky and came to a very fine point. "Don't worry these won't do much more than give a few broken bones at the most."

Although the thugs seemed to know they were still at a disadvantage they clearly were going to try to win anyway. One of the thugs with a k-bar came running in bar ready to come swinging down. As he started to swing the bar down to hit Jackson, Jackson swung his left arm upwards and cut the bar just above the thug's hands. This was quickly followed by his right arm which hit the thug in the side. This time the 'bladed' hand acted more like a bludgeoning weapon than a cutting one like before. Along with the collision came a crescent shaped wave that pushed the thug to the wall with a audible thud. The other thugs started to move little by little to try and get closer to Jackson. They way they spread themselves out you could easily see there were still 12 more to deal with. Thankfully with the thugs focusing on Jackson now the girls were able to make a break for it.
