Finally, an easy page! Well, not so easy. Strangely, the art was a piece of cake, but I had to rework the dialogue a few times. That is very uncharacteristic of me. ^_^; This scene wasn't in my original script, which stuck with Seiko and didn't address the “fight.” I rewrote this scene from scratch, and this part makes the whole thing work.
Lonnehart, Tantz, Peipei: Being conscious and coherent are good signs. Hopefully they can keep this encounter brief and get some help.
ghostrunner: Indeed. -_-
amanda: Conrad's intents seem to be leaning in that direction. ~_^
DAJB: Google is always an adventure, even when looking up seemingly harmless terms like karate or bicycle.
patrickdevine: The wardrobe situation caused me quite a bit of trouble when scripting this scene. My original script just talked about tending to Kylie. I neglected to consider the details of that and hadn't thought about what Seiko would be wearing. ^_^; This is an undershirt at this point, presumably with built in support. But regardless of that, it seemed more realistic for Seiko to instinctively remove it. (She is a professional and sort of hidden in a hole, heh.) I had to work my views/angles around that.
JustNoPoint: I meant for him to shove Ronnie with his shoulder, but the elbow thing was easier to draw. The goal was to get him by surprise and disarm him. Typically, it's better to distract Seiko with something before you start a showdown. She might object to these tactics.
LanceDanger: Now is definitely not a good time for vanity. XD

I appreciate that Conrad didn't fall for the old "fight like men" trick. I don't think anyone has EVER said that and meant it.

Yeah... not sure I'd use a knife in a sword fight myself. Ah well. That's what happens when you face an immortal like Juan Sanchez Villa-Lobos Ramirez!

uh oh, he's too smart to be fooled by the villian, what else will go wrong?

Wow! Nice page, and wicked last frame!

ouch!!! I can't believe the art was a piece of cake for you on this page, you got so many difficult angles accomplished! That sword is pretty bad ass too

Ouch! I suppose in Japan they'd call that an "assisted suicide"!
