"Do whatever you want. I don't even care."

go check how the girl is doing.

"So what do you green guys want to do? I suppose you want to stop wearing this spandex crap right?"
The girl seems to be doing fine, though she's pretty shaken by all of this.

"You have defeated the Khan in righteous battle." The two green spandex guys answer. "The title of Khan is now yours, you may lead our clan however you see fit."


"YOU OK, BLUE-BACK?"

Tie up the knights... well, the ones that are still alive anyway
Someone has had the foresight of putting zip ties in one your suits' pockets. You tie up the unconscious but still lviign knights with them.

"Uh, yeah, I'm not hurt I think. Thanks for helping out here, shit's really a mess. These guys are coming out en masse from the main square, over by the council building. I..I'm not sure the police are going to be able to hold them back, you know? At this rate it seems we'll run out of ammo before they stop coming through."

Search the creature's corpse for anything useful, and by useful, I mean stuff that I can use in my quest to Heimlich the world into peaceful submission.  I don't want no cruddy knives or magical artifacts!  I need me some proper Heimliching gloves!
Well, you root around the little sphere demon's corpse but you don't find any heimliching gloves. Darn, first amazon doesn't stock them and now random demons from other dimensions don't carry them either. Don't people realize how important they are?

On the bright side, all this heimlich training has made it so that you feel more sure of yourself. (+1 to heimliching rolls)

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

Get in the helicopter, kick the pilot out and fly up with my sidekick and the journalists.
[6+1 -> 1+1] You get to the helicopter and yank the pilot out of the cockpit. The guy falls to the ground, slides off the helicopter platfrom, bounces off of some camera equipment on the ground and goes tumbling off the side of the building. Your young sidekick takes place in the copilot seat and is keeping the journalist from doing anything stupid.

Okay, so you've never actually flown a helicopter before. Big deal, right, people even land ariplanes in movies with no problems! [2] The helicopter goes up, but then you yank the cyclic too hard, making the helicopter go sideways and down. You are currently moving towards the ground at speeds that are just totally not cool, man!

"So much for being polite."

Cut the wyvern and rider out of the sky with the Guan dao.
[4+1] As the rider turns to loose another arrow you quickly dive down. The ride is heard yelling and looking frantically around him. You shoot upwards and cut off the head of the wyvern with the crescent blade, sending both the wyvern and rider tumbling down. The wyvern's data on the HUD flashes out as you cut the head off, and the rider's does the same once they smack into the road below.

(as mgs fun - story and game overall is VERY bad. Gameplay though 10/10.)
"I am rookie, i would prefer to help and complete orders" silenced PoP
"Right, watch our rear then, we're going in."

The first guy peeks around the corner with the little mirror and does some complicated hand signs. One of the guys, the one with the large rifle, breaks off and enters the building on the opposite side fo the road. The three remaining guys stack up on the corner and spread out, one staying ont he corner and the others next to him. The surpressed shots ring out in concert, and the chainmailed ruffians fall one by one. The last one, the guy holding the woman hostage, backs up in panic. He starts shouting something, but is cut off abrubtly when a large caliber round from somewhere inside the building takes away half of his face.

The three guys cautiously move up to the slaughter ground and double tap the downed enemies, with one guy giving first aid to the woman. You flinch as someone taps you on the shoulder. It's the guy with the rifle.

"Right, one of them will probably escort the woman back to somewhere safe. But we need to keep going. I went up to the tenth floor and looked around. It's not pretty. Just...things...keep pouring out from somewhere near the center of the city."

Leave the place!
You leave the park! Or at least, you try to, but you don't get very far. The police have sealed off nearly all car traffic and the metro isn't running due to "technical difficulties". They're also suggesting that people evacuate to the underground shelters and that people do not go to the center of the city.

Flame them in the face!
You [2+1] flame them in the face! You misjudged the amount of flame a face would need, and now the person is coming at you like a flailing candlestick. It [1-1] vs [whatever] trips and faceplants to the ground. It struggles to get up again. You casually take a few steps back and flame it from a safe distance until it stops moving. If all of the enemies are like this guy, this will be over in a jiffy!

"Ok. I have a few questions: what did you guys do before? Why do you like the Khan so much? What's up with that power aura I have and that guy in my head talking?"

And then to the girl

"Huh, I guess you can go do whatever you want now.I guess we'll meet again in the gym. I gotta sort some weird action out now"

Stuff the knights into the trunk of my car and head to the main square.

Grab hold of the corpse, and drag it with me until I can find a crowd of people.  Then present a PSA on the dangers of choking, and show them the monster corpse.  Tell them that what they see here is a literal manifestation of "Choking" that was vanquished through the use of a phenomenal technique called the Heimlich Maneuver.  Offer to teach this impressive technique to anyone who wishes to assist me in my quest to vanquish "Choking" in its many evil forms.

Look for more scum to fry.
You go out of the alley and look for more scum to fry. You follow the opposite direction fo the stream of panicking people, heading to the center of the city.

On your way there you come across a Buss of people. The bus is surrounded by zombies similar to the one you already fought.

"Ok. I have a few questions: what did you guys do before? Why do you like the Khan so much? What's up with that power aura I have and that guy in my head talking?"

And then to the girl

"Huh, I guess you can go do whatever you want now.I guess we'll meet again in the gym. I gotta sort some weird action out now"
"We did not like the Khan at all. We were the honour guard of the three heavenly masters, who guarded the secret techniques of the zodiac. During the last tournament, the Khan won. Only instead of taking his rightful place as a Zodiac champion, he murdered the masters and took over this place. I do not know about the voice, I am but a humble guard."

The girl, shaking, goes to the elevator. She keeps muttering to herself.

"This isn't happening. Today was too weird. Too wierd."

"Okay then, lets proceed with extra cautious" PoP
Go with group.
You and the four men continue pushing deep into the city now, moving towards the center. The front guy checks the corner with his little mirror again.

"Looks like a bus of people, getting swarmed by...hostiles. Yeah, hostiles. What do we do? We could always take a detour."

Look around for where the wyvern and rider might have come from. Go there.
You start wondering where the rider may have come from. Your hud suddenly shows a waypoint, and a predicted path that leads to the center of the city. You start going there. Coming close, your Hud zooms in ahead. Over the center of city, near the council building, the airspace is filled with flying nasties. they're too far to make out what exactly they are, but there's at least ten circling overhead.

Stuff the knights into the trunk of my car and head to the main square.

"HOP IN, LITTLE BOY BLUE! WE'LL STOP THOSE BIG BAD KNIGHTS!"

Hero stuff, to make sure I don't forget:
Spoiler (click to show/hide)
You grab the unconscious knights and stuff them in the trunk. The policeman shrugs and gets into the passenger seat. You drive towards the main square, encountering less and less people the deeper you get into the city.

You have to stop at a certain point. The road is blocked by a bus. The bus is surrounded by very shabby looking people clawing at the windows.

Find a bunker.
You follow the stream of people to one of the fallout bunkers. You take a seat near the entrance. It feels like you're a sardine in a can, but at least you're safe for now, right?

The metal blastdoor closes with a loud thunk, and several dull thumps can be heard as the large bars lock into place.

Grab hold of the corpse, and drag it with me until I can find a crowd of people.  Then present a PSA on the dangers of choking, and show them the monster corpse.  Tell them that what they see here is a literal manifestation of "Choking" that was vanquished through the use of a phenomenal technique called the Heimlich Maneuver.  Offer to teach this impressive technique to anyone who wishes to assist me in my quest to vanquish "Choking" in its many evil forms.
You drag the corpse in in front of a crowd of people gathering near a police station. You explain the heimlich manoevre and all that jazz. Three guys actually take up your offer to be taught. Another step to a choke free world.

Psh. I can't die, I am the American Dream. I stabilize the chopper, go really high up, and then charge at the dargon from the direction of the sun.

It's like tea leaf divination, but with cartoon leprechauns.
There are only two sure things in life: death and taxes and lists and poor arithmetic and overlong jokes and poor memory and probably a few more things.

See if any of those flying things break off from the others. If so, take it down once it gets a good distance away from them. If not, get close enough to recognize what the flying things are and see if my HUD can show possible routes for hit-and-run strikes.

Teach my three students how to perform the Heimlich Maneuver.  Then tell the three of them to search out more people and spread the technique to those they find, telling their students to do the same.  The whole world must be converted over to the cause of choke-prevention!  After my anti-choking disciples leave to spread the good maneuver, travel to the local radio station.  Convince the radio hosts that I'm with the American Throat Association and ask if I can give a short PSA on the radio about how people can avoid the dangers of choking and a special technique that can save a choking person's life.
