2 Members of Alpha Flight Walk Into a Bar (Action, 2)
"Come on," Alex said. "You can use the restroom in here." Alex opened the door to the pub and held it open for Mason. Mason was underage to drink, but not to use the restroom. Besides, Alex was thirsty and could grab a soda while Mason took care of business.

Mason hustled towards the restroom, nodding graciously to Alex. He had to apologize and squeeze around someone on the way, and was just about to push the door open when someone caught his arm.

A biker about twice his size glared down at him from behind a massive beard and two chins. "Hey! You just tried to cop a feel on my old lady!" He pointed to the woman Mason had passed.

Mason just blinked, eyes flicking hurriedly to the restroom. "I... I'm sorry, what?"

	Alex slid onto a stool at the bar and ordered a glass of soda. He didn't even think about ordering alcohol. He never had any in his life. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"You heard me, tiny! Now buy us a round to apologize or I'm gonna kick your ass!" The man bellowed loudly. "Dude, uh, this is a really bad time for me..." Mason tried tugging his arm free to get to the restroom. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	The commotion from the rear of the bar reached the front and Alex looked around the people seated at the bar to see what was going on. There was Mason and a very big guy. This didn't look good. Alex slid off the stool and slowly walked toward his teammate. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Like I give a fuck!" The man shook Mason like a ragdoll. Mason's face was a mask of concentration, trying to think of deserts and droughts. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Hey Mister," Alex said as he came up to them. "You're a little too butch for my friend here. Please let him go." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	got_the_touch 2012-01-28 05:54 pm UTC (link)
	"Mind your own business." Another thug grabs Alex by the shoulder, pulling him back. Other patrons are starting to edge away at this point. "Uh... I can't buy you any booze, but if you're really upset, could we settle this with some autographs?" Mason offers. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"C'mon guys. He just wants to use the bathroom," Alex said. "Let him go and I'll buy you guys a drink." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

"Fuck off!" The second man shoves Alex back into another table.

"Hey! Get your hands off my friend, ugly!" Mason cries out.

"Don't you talk back to my friend, runt!" The first man picks Mason up by the collar and shoves him against the wall.

Now, it takes a lot to get to Mason Jeffries, but holding him back while a fight's just been started with one of his friends will do it. He spits in beardy's face and starts kicking.

	Alex stumbled back into a table and hit it hard enough to send the drinks on it sliding to the edge. The glasses crashed to the floor with the sound of breaking glass. Alex got his feet under him and charged back toward the men. He lowered a shoulder and rammed a guy. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Neither of the drunks had been expecting the smaller males to actually stand their ground. Beardy lets go of Mason after taking a hit to a shin, and his friend is caught by Alex's shoulder. Mason drops to one knee and attempts to sweep the larger man's legs out from under him. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Alex and Mason had the element of surprise on their side, but now it was gone. The bigger guy Alex hit regained his footing and laid a right roundhouse on Alex. Alex went flying backward into another table. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Mason scrambles away from the toppled beardy, and jumps on the back of the guy fighting with Alex. "Get offa him, you tool!" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	tooth_n_claw 2012-01-28 10:35 pm UTC (link)
	Alex hurt, but he moved to get back to his feet. He started for the guy Mason was clinging to, but the other guy blocked his path. This time Alex got hit by a left. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Mason started trying to put a sleeper hold on his opponent, but the man stumbled into beardy, sending all three of them hurtling to the floor in Alex's direction. "Aaaahhh!!!" Mason yelps as they go down. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Enough of this. Alex knew he shouldn't do this, but there wasn't a choice. He shifted into a large grizzly bear and stood up on his hind legs. He let out a loud roar. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	And the bar promptly empties, beardy and his friend screaming as they run off. Mason, on the other hand, runs for the bathroom. "Thank you, Alex!" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	tooth_n_claw 2012-01-28 11:31 pm UTC (link)
	Alex just shook his head. "Hurry up," he called after Mason. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Mason is still shaking water off his hands and buttoning his jeans when he comes bolting out of the bathroom again, the two of them heading out of the bar before police show up. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Absolutely. We don't need to tell them about me being held up against a wall though." Mason adds, checking his pocket. "Hope the bracelet I got for Nim isn't cracked..." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	tooth_n_claw 2012-01-29 01:38 am UTC (link)
	"Better check it," he said. "Let's hail a cab to take us home." Alex paused. "Or better yet." He transformed into a dragon. /Climb aboard./ (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	got_the_touch 2012-01-29 01:53 am UTC (link)
	Mason is relieved to find that the bracelet is intact, along with the bookmark with increment conversions (for cooking) printed on it that he'd gotten for Alex to give to Mel. "Awesome.." He grins at the transformation, and climbs on. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Alex flew them home. (Reply to this)(Parent)
