[The first threat is dead before it notices him, blade sizzling in a clean arc through the uneven resistance of flesh and bone. User composition is frankly disgusting, but it's something Rinzler's grown used to by now. It's surprising, how much.
The second has time to raise its weapon. Time to see him, and with an enemy that can predict your movements, that's no small advantage lost. Knowing what's coming doesn't mean it's capable of countering it, though, and the red-orange blade spins neatly, drawing off the defenses with two quick, hard blows, before stabbing out and through its weakened guard.
And that's about when the enemies in back manage to raise their guns. Rinzler twists to the side as a barrel fixes in his direction, frame curving around the blurred disruption in the air as they begin to fire. Dodging bullets might be past even Rinzler's skills, but he's run this fight before. And he can definitely be faster than the hands that aim them. Lights blur to a red-streaked shadow as he flicks one corpse forward to tangle up their aim, flipping forward on his empty hand to kick a rifle off-center and slice his blade out through its owner's neck as he comes up. The enforcer stays in motion, a fluid arc of acrobatic strikes and turns. It's showy. It's fast. It's also? A very good distraction.]
