[QUOTE="Qik, post: 5755926, member: 6673727"] [sblock=OOC]That was perfect, and considering you absolutely toasted my DC (which I knew was a definite possibility given Fury's Acrobatics skill, but still...), I'll consider you good on part 1, and move you onto part 2 (although funnily enough, its basically a repeat of your last bit in the previous post).[/sblock] As the young man, shocked at the sight of Fury making a seemingly impossible leap, turns to run from the bridge into an adjacent alley, a small leather pouch looped into his belt catches a rusty nail from the wooden bridge; the man looks back, his dismay clear, as the pouch falls onto the planks where he had just been standing, but one look at Fury bearing down on him spurs him on. Without thinking, Fury leans down and manages to scoop up the pouch and pocket it without breaking stride. This most recent alley is more of the same: a series of narrow planks, long neglected, some well along in their process of decomposition, others missing altogether. Even so, Fury manages to navigate the hazardous terrain easily enough, and although the young bravo is doing an admirable job of keeping up his pace, it's clear that Fury is gaining on him. And his object of pursuit knows it. Suddenly, the young man hangs a hard right, heading back towards the canal Fury had only just vaulted across. As the pair emerge from the alley, Fury catches sight of the waterway once more, only this time, no bridges are in sight. Without looking back, the young man continues on in his stride, takes a final, emphatic push-off of the waterway edge, and sails over the expanse. As Fury approaches the edge himself, he sees the young man land on the other side with a sickening crack of his ankle: screaming in pain, he falls, clutching his leg. If Fury can only make this jump, he'll have him.... [sblock=OOC Pt.2]Right, so one more acrobatics roll, please. Make it a good one![/sblock] [/QUOTE]
