Kara nodded in response to Onyx’s apology. Technically she didn’t have to apologize to Kara at all, but Kara didn’t mention that and just let it go. She wasn’t interested in picking a fight with onyx, not really. Instead she was interested in seething over at Keegan.

His reaction to her anger was to accuse her of wanting him. What kind of a sleaze did this guy think he was?! He was not worth anyone’s jealousy or desire – he was a detestable, sorry excuse for a human being. A male. As Keegan winked at her she was reminded of her creepy uncle, the scum of the earth who thought that she’d be interested in a pretty face and a charming façade.

Kara stood up, grabbed the remainder of her beer, and splashed it at Keegan, aiming for his face.

”Don’t act so cocky.” Kara sneered, holding the now empty cup in her hands. ”You are a disgusting excuse for a human. You should just die and do the world a favor.”

Kara was aware that she’d done something completely attention grabbing, something violent, but she didn’t care. She was still glaring at Keegan as though she could melt him into nothingness if she stared long enough. Kara was more than willing to fight with this man if he tried to strike back. She’d love nothing more than to punch his face until it was so swollen you couldn’t tell his eyes from his nostrils.

Chad grinned at Maxine’s offer.

”I’m flattered! I love seeing you without clothes, too.” He said, though any attempts at picking Maxine up went out the window when he heard a slashing sound and looked over to see Kara glaring at Keegan with a fiercely angry look in her eyes.

Oh, shit. Poor Keegan. Chad blinked, startled, before he looked behind Kara and over at Onyx, the pretty girl who he didn’t dare approach. He then looked between Kara and Keegan, whistling.

”Oooh. Shit got real.” He commented, taking another sip of his drink.

The fight was not gathering more attention from the patrons of the bar. Chad’s eyes bounced between Kara and Keegan, honestly not sure who he thought was more dangerous between the two. Keegan was tough, taller than Kara, and male but it looked like Kara wasn’t even scared of him in the slightest. In fact, the more Keegan spoke the darker Kara’s expression grew and the more worried for his friend Chad started to grow.

Jees, Keegan didn’t know Kara’s rep yet! That was the only reason he wasn’t backing off now and going back to the girls from before. Chad rolled his eyes – Keegan’s funeral – and turned back towards Maxine.

”Well I mean yeah, but it’d also be kind of scary. I mean, Kara looks like she’s about to pull a knife out of her ass.” Chad pointed out in a mumble low enough not to be heard by the two sources of conflict in the room. When she said his shot was free, Chad winked at her. ”Well thanks. Since you’re being so nice to me, maybe I’ll have to do something for you later.“

Kara glared up at Keegan, who wasn’t backing down from her. Kara cracked her knuckles as she tried to convince herself he wasn’t worth it. Her mother would be furious if she found out Kara was picking fights again at Metric – though technically she wasn’t in Metric so much as Salem, and a bar, but that would be even worse to her mother’s ears. Kara didn’t break eye contact. She’d probably just use a little more force and get him whimpering and crying and then leave him to his own devices.

But then Onyx decided to get her pretty little ass involved. When Kara saw Onyx approaching Keegan she grit her teeth and barked out a ”stay away from him!” that went unheeded, as Onyx tried to tell Keegan to back off.

And then he reached out and groped Onyx. Kara saw the tears begin to fall from the girl’s eyes as she shoved Keegan away and her vision went completely red. Onyx should not have gone over there, but that did not excuse what this man had done.

Kara reached out and snatched Keegan’s hand with her right hand. She then grabbed his thumb and yanked it back with all of her strength, in an attempt to break it or, at the very least, to distract Keegan with the pain. With her other hand, Kara snatched Onyx and pulled her away from Keegan in case the creep tried to physically assault her, and once Onyx was out of the way, Kara drew back her left fist and sent it flying for Keegan’s face, hoping to hit him and knock him back into the tables behind them.

"I'll break all your fucking fingers for that! You have no right to touch her, you fucking rapist!" Kara spat at Keegan.

”Well yeah.” Chad said, unable to really defend Keegan’s actions. Not like he really wanted to anyway. Keegan was the one in the wrong here… though he couldn’t lie, he flinched when Kara hit Keegan back into the tables and got him onto the ground. At Onyx’s comment about taking Keegan to the hospital Chad shrugged. ”Well… you’re probably right. He’s not making this any easier for himself. She’ll kill him at this rate.”

Once Kara got Keegan down on the ground, she smirked, stomping one of her booted feet onto his chest. The area around them was cleared by now and a circle of bar patrons, not limited to Maxine, Chad, and Onyx, were all watching the fight. But these people looked more excited than anything – some of them were cheering and others were making whispered bets and shouting encouraging phrases to the two involved. But Kara numbed them out and now her only focus was on Keegan.

Kara brought her foot up and stomped on his chest again at his words.

”Oh what’s that? You don’t think I can?” Kara challenged, reaching down to grab both of Keegan’s arms. She violently yanked them up, hoping to cause him pain in his shoulders. And while he was distracted with that and likely thought she was trying to just pull his arms out of their sockets, she brought her foot up from Keegan’s chest and aimed a fast towards his face, aiming for his nose, hoping to hit and break it.
