Hee! Peter is so heroic these days. Also very well done for timing the 'splosions to the 4th July (happy Independence Day!).

Note on Kali/Eskrima - the pressure point thing seems uncharacteristic from what I know of it, given that it'll assume you have a knife or stick in your hand and targets for damage rather than nerve clusters. But very possibly your friend learned the nerve strikes as 'extra credit', since it is fun to mess with body systems!

As for Jax vs. Dr. V., I'm also sure Jax has some tricks up his sleeves (Jax wears sleeves while skating. Safety first!). And all things being equal I'd bet on a physically fit (some, not me, would say 'godly physique') teenager against a scientist described as 'round'.

Awesome chapter!

Puntr = This is already a slang word. Come on, V-word!

Hope you get feeling better, Darren. Poison ivy is never fun, but it's worse on a holiday, eh?

Neneser: A king of Babylon, known around the world for his gunpowder inventions, topical creams, and for always winning the chili contests. Bareheaded.

This is why you need to hire me as a Biological consultant, I could have steered you away from that. Remember leaves of three, leave it be. :)

And I knew there would be fireworks. :D

Come on v-word you say rubberduck? Mine was unhand! Can you get more wordy v-word?

Rubberduck -
True on the Kali/Escrima. I know that was his major focus, but he was a martial arts badass in general, so maybe he did study some other area for the pressure point stuff...

As for Jax and Dr. V, though, remember: old age and treachery will beat youth and skill every time.

Although the physically-fit part vs. "round" might shake things up a bit.

Glad you liked the chapter!

Um the Muse -
It was pretty bad. I might have to capitalize on my experience for a future horrifying story.

Rai -
I didn't go looking for it, I swear! I didn't even see it!

Maybe I will hire you to go in my backyard and destroy it all...with a flamethrower...

No, wait, I want to use the flamethrower.
