With a final conviction set in his heart, he jumps up and begins to run out of the tavern. The Bartender shouted, "Stop that man! He hasn't payed!...Larry gets approached by a large man, standing in his way.
Larry attempted to walk around him, but the man grabbed Larry's arm.. Swinging around, Larry locked his foot in place behind the man's legs, and pushed him down with force enough to take the man's breath. Two more men come running up to Larry to seize him.
Larry grabbed the man nearest him, and with the help of the new strength enhancer he had been given, easily tossed the man across the room, to come crashing into the wall and fall limp. The other man drew his dagger and Larry barely saw it coming as it sank into his side.
Gripping his side for the pain, four other men took advantage of the opportunity to bully somebody, and they all jumped at Larry at once. The combined strength of the men took Larry down, as he desperately fought to exit the door. The barkeeper by now had found the local authorities and they were on their way in.
