Bokoblin Punch

The injured man with the green gloves was now faced with two bokoblins jabbing at him. Sheik aimed a roundhouse at the back of one’s head. She expected to have to take both, but the moment the pressure of two was taken off the man, he slammed the other with a punch that sent it sliding through the dirt.

Sheik was taken aback for a moment. Not expecting someone with such an injury to hit so hard. It took her focus away from the monsters for just a moment, a moment too long as her thigh was speared with two large tusks.

She hissed in without crying out, looked down to see a goomba chomping down on her leg. The man with the green gloves came to her aid, he punched down into the goomba with a strike that squashed it flat in a moment.

Sheik steadied her breathing to pull blood away from the wound. Locking her knee and rooting her leg to stay firm, she lifted her uninjured foot and slammed it down into another nearby goomba, squashing that one flat as well.

She and the man in the gloves exchanged a look. Warrior recognized warrior. Both nodded.
