You're walking down the street at roughly 5pm, the sun is setting behind you causing your shadow to extend in front of you. You tend to mind your own business and look at hardly anything around you. Suddenly another shadow runs up behind you, what do you do...?
This is just something to pass time. I wanted to know what everyone would do in this situation. Vote what you'd do!

There needs to be a, "Assume defensive stance and be ready to fight." option... (says the guy who carries a good sized knife and has almost had to use it and will readily do so again.).

Tis mostly overlooked, person running behind you makes you jittery and you are more worried about what their intent is and all so you panic and want to get away, I force myself to stay calm and just move my hands to my knives and stay relaxed until I need to drop down and be defensive.

You have military training? Or is where you live simply wild like that?

Used to get picked on a lot, after a while I forced myself to be this way. That and my friends and cousin like fighting and all, so they teach me things and I integrate them with how I am.

I used to get picked on also. Jumped a lot until I threw my first punch and enjoyed the adrenaline if it. I don't fight much but if I do, I prefer not using a weapon unless necessary. Less charges if the fight is broken up by law enforcement.

My knife is mostly a way to keep people away, it is barely legal for me to carry and I can easily conceal it on my side in plain view still. If I pull it out or show it, it is mostly so people are wary of me and just leave me alone... if Ido fight I won't use it unless I absolutely have to. All blades are weapons, weapons are tools to kill... if I am forced to use it I must stop short of killing.
How I fight with a knife and especially the one I generally wear is to let them swing a fist or something, grab their hand and go up the arm cutting it, which means I can go all the way to the neck in a few moments and tear apart their arm and make it completely useless and if my life is in pure danger...I won't stop with their arm if I know I will die.
Though good thing is the last time I pulled my knife as a warning it has been almost a full year and I was insanely pissed for the past few weeks... pulled it out threw my drink and began laughing... both guys ran before I turned around. Crazy white guy laughing wielding a knife, Who wouldn't run?

Hold on let me go into detail, basically this was two weeks after my girlfriend had broke up with me, I had to stay there with her and her parents due to them being my ride to work... imagine how pissed I was when having to go back and her having her new boyfriend there half the time... SO I had been at a friends just killing the night and hanging out for Halloween and having a good time. I went to leave and as I was walking back two black guys walked from behind their little hiding spot shouted, "Hey cracker." Then decided to throw a rock or two... one went right by my ear and I just let loose my anger, took a sip of my root beer (my favorite drink and it was still half full at least) then tossed it to the side, my blade was already unhooked and ready to pull out... I busted out laughing twirled it around my finger and locked it into my fighting stance and I spun around laughing and grinning a sadistic grin.... they where gone by that time and I did that in the space of moments...

Still very fucking hilarious, especially considering that could've been something out of an anime!

Man that would be amazing for some random scene, add in I had my fangs on... I look back at it now and god I want them to try it this year just so they can have a fun memory and just run again.

Something like that lasts more than a decade. They won't try anything again, unless they mistake you for someone else.

I had short hair at the time and since my hair has grown about four times as long and I wear it different, plus I changed my style mostly... I feel like seeing if they want to try again this year and if they do... oh boy I can conceal my sword for even better effect.

.. I prefer the terms, psychotic, sadistic, masochistic, and insane.... Mad is not enough of a term to call me as I see it. Plus this comes from a guy who will be practicing kendo against more experienced people tomorrow and may do it a little buzzed as well.

Man, it's great my only problem is if they don't keep it at my level... the first time I tried it took a second to knock my kendo away and get hit in the knee cap.

Ah... I learned how to sword fight with an English longsword... can't say how great my form is thanks to the fact that I never had a teacher and learned what I did from books and a little bit of the internet... but I can beat my big brother at it xD
Though you sound like my sister.... crazy woman who carries a pistol shaped knife with a blade that comes out... it's a sneaky knife. Though she's better at the martial arts than I am... I can still out throw her with throwing knives.
I think my entire family just likes weaponry.

... I now want to face you down with kendo swords...
Also no I have a distaste for hidden blades, I wear mine proudly on my side for anyone to see... though with how I walk and carry myself they tend to be somewhat concealed.
Me I am still learning and improving my skills though I have a natural affinity for throwing knives apparently, but I prefer being close and able to choose exactly where my blade hits without having to gauge other things... I am naturally draw to bladed weapons is all, which may explain why I have maybe five knives in the span of a month.... along with a sword... I need more.
