Ouch. When my friends and I, bunch of sporty types most of them, with a few geeks. We were sitting in small clusters near each other as getting ten seats next to each other was impossible, and we were watching the Dark Knight. We had all seen it before but there wasn't much else worth watching and we were bored.
About one third through the film this group of moronic ned bastards start yelling obscenities at us, and lobbing popcorn our way. Ignoring them with dignity, we carried on watching. This carried on for about ten minutes until I told them to shut the fuck up. They were just picking a fight with what looked like, to them, three guys a bit younger than them.
They stand up, about six or seven of them, and get in my face about starting it and swearing at them. I tell them to shove off and one of them takes a swing at me. Hits me in the chest as I wasn't expecting it, and I double over, winded. They all start laughing and one of them kicks me in the shins. I lunge forward and topple him to the ground, caught wrestling him, unable to throw a punch because we were locked.
Then my friends look round and come over... first there is Jakob. Jakob is the Terminator. He actually has a German accent. At 13 he ran the 100m in 10.9 seconds. He's pretty much an Olympian. He is also quick, muscular and very strong. He leaps over two rows of seats and collides with two guys. One he clotheslines with his arm, and the other takes a beating to the face and stomach before he even hit the floor.
Now, along the little walkways out of that screen there are these large glass screens. By now my friends are caught in a fight with guys who are older and bigger than us. Still locked with my guy, I roll on top of him and land a few punches and smash his nose. I stand up over him, unable to kick a bleeding incapacitated opponent, until he lashes out with his leg at my balls. I jumped over his leg and landed, unintentionally, on his chest. He collapses completely, as I think I broke a few ribs.
A guy who I think was his older brother charges at me, and tackles me to the floor again, this time covered with blood from the dude on the floor and my friend Harry who's lost a tooth by now. Jakob jumps over the guy on the floor and launches the guy throttling me through on of the windows. He flies a good few feet and shatters the glass, and lands in a heap near the outside wall of the screen.
Now the odds are more in our favour, and I turn round, tired and a bit shocked to see two of them take down my friend Chris, before stamping on his face. He kicks out and catches the leg of the guy near him, and he is immediately punched in the back of the head by Harry. Leaving only about four guys to nearly three times their number, they run off, and get caught at the door by security. Witnesses all back us up and say that they started it and they escalated it to strong violence.
On the way out one guy who managed to talk his way out of being fucking arrested has a go at Jakob. He catches the punch and breaks the guy's wrist, before sending him to Simon, wherein he kneed him in the gut, largely by accident.
That was a scary day. Several of my friends ended up with broken bones and two of the guys attacking us had knives on them, but for some reason didn't use them.
