AN - 2 - Blocks a Blow

Even as the drone crumpled – his ribs shattered – the second warrior lunged forward, swinging his bo at Liu’s head. Using both hands, Liu brought up the seized weapon, blocked what would have been a skull-shattering blow, then jabbed its bladed end out like a spear point, driving it into the assassin’s stomach. The warrior stumbled and fell, the staff jutting from his body.
