Another tried to jump Leon from behind. Leon tilted his head slightly as if he could feel the wind move wrong. He threw his elbow back without looking. The elbow smashed into the attacker's jaw. Teeth clicked together. The boy dropped like a broken toy.
Daniel's side looked almost graceful.
One of the sidekicks charged at him with a wild scream. Daniel moved one foot sideways, his body turning like he was stepping into a dance. His leg whipped up, heel crashing into the side of the guy's head in a clean roundhouse kick. The guy spun mid-air and crashed onto the ground.
Another came low for Daniel's legs. Daniel hopped just enough to avoid the grab, knee dropping down onto the attacker's shoulder as he landed, forcing the guy facefirst into the ground.
Their movements were very different.
Leon fought like a raging wave — heavy, aggressive, wild, pushing forward.Daniel fought like a controlled blade — sharp, clean, using kicks with frightening precision.
But they matched.
