Orphan City 1x1 with C r e e d

[м o e]

Switch Blade

His head whipped up. "What?!"

Slasher

He walked back over to Todge and cracked his shoulder. "Good one." He smirked, getting his saddle ready for the next event.

[cashew jackman]

Scythe

He chuckled. "You're last in line."

Todge

He huffed and stomped impatiently, tossing his head.

Creed

He watched as the first Tryphe shot out and ran for his life, being chased down by two cowboys on horseback. One launched himself off the horse and tackled the Everteen, slamming him to the ground flat on his back and putti a knee in his gut. The crowd cheered and the cowboy stood, waving as the Tryphe lay there gasping. Guards approached him with whips and he scrambled up, running back to the pen. Creed grimaced.

[м o e]

Switch Blade

His eyes widened as he watched the first Tryphe and tugged on his chains again.

Slasher

He mounted Todge and got ready, guards pulling Creed into the front shute. The announcer kept talking as usual, keeping the crowd informed on Slasher's reputation and skill.

Scythe

"Watch carefully, maybe you'll pick up some tips." He chuckled.

Creed

He decided he'd make it difficult for the guards and fought back, digging his heels into the dirt and pulling all his weight back. After a hard struggle they finally got him in and removed his chains, keeping his collar, harness, and muzzle on. He took a deep breath, looking around. It was almost time to start.

[м o e]

Slasher

He moved Todge up and nodded to the guards to start.

[cashew jackman]

Todge

He pranced in place impatiently, shaking his mane.

Creed

As the gate flew open he charged out, then instantly dodged to the side, rolling and scrambling up the gate, into one of the other pens. The crowd gasped and laughed.

[м o e]

Slasher

He kicked his heels into Todge's side and pivoted over to the pen where he launched himself off Todge over the gate and grabbed Creed around the neck, dragging him to the ground until he was on his back. He dug his knee into his chest and glared at him. "you'll deeply regret this later, but I need you alive for roping." He snapped, dragging him up and throwing him back into a cage to wait.

[cashew jackman]

Todge

He trotted back into the pen.

Creed

He gasped and hit cage bottom, grunting in pain. His neck felt out of place and he could hardly breathe.

Scythe

He shoved Switch into the pen and watched the riders get ready.

Trampler

He shifted in the saddle and prepared to go.

[м o e]

Switch Blade

He tugged on the straps and looked around, figuring out what he could do. He looked behind the two riders getting ready and scowled when he saw several guards with whips standing back, so he wouldn't be able to go that way.

[cashew jackman]

Scythe

He took off his chains, leaving the collar and harness. He unhooked the chains from his leg manacles, knowing it would be much easier to get him back if Thhe manacles were still on. "Behave yourself sonny." He chuckled, stepping back. The gate flew open and the whip bearers moved forward, swinging their weapons.
