Reflections of Dawn

Drunk fight

Nyx was a bit drunk, dancing with people she didn't know and totally enjoying it.
Owen had been hustled off by some girls, though not the ones he'd been staring at. He'd protested, but realistically couldn't be happier.
Nick and Travis... well, she hadn't checked since she'd last seen them, but figured they were getting on just fine.

For a while now, she'd had her suspicions about those two, or at least Travis, especially since the Christmas party.

She swiftly approached the bar, flopping down on the stool and breathing hard. This was a good distraction from everything, she was glad she had come.

But not for long.

Suddenly, a shout went up, and she saw a familiar figure crash to the ground, clutching his nose.

She groaned. Typical. Couldn't her family go anywhere without starting a fight?

She jumped up off the stool, rushing to the aid of Owen, who was being beaten up by a tall, muscular man who was obviously very drunk.

Alysha swung her fist, and punched him in the nose with a bone-crunching crack!
He stumbled back, yelling in pain.
She yanked Owen up off the floor. "What the hell did you do to set him off?"
"I think I kissed his sister. But he's drunk, it's not just my fault, he's not thinking rationally!"

Alysha yanked him out of the way of another of the man's drunken swings, ignoring the cheering and cat-calling of the crowd that had gathered to watch. "Well, maybe you shouldn't stick your tongue down the throats of random girls." She muttered angrily under her breath.
The man swung again, but this time, without even breaking a sweat, Alysha caught his arm mid-swing, bending it painfully backwards. "Excuse me, but I'd appreciate it if you didn't hit my friend."
The man cried out in pain. Ignoring him, Alysha turned to Owen. "Go find the lovebirds, I think we may have to leave now."
