DOWN, BUT NOT OUT

Harris came up off his jumping foot and brought the same leg up before him in extensionЧa flying side kick straight out of tournament demonstrations. The huge man felt like Jell-O, but he still fell over backwards. Harris hit the ground hard, too, but scrambled up instantly. УGaby?Ф
The bag the man had dropped said, УHarris?Ф and her arm stretched out of it.
The old man said, УMine.Ф He stepped out of the way. УPhipps, I need this young man removed. Adonis, get up.Ф
УGaby, get the hell out of here!Ф
The third man pulled something from under his armpit. Harris felt fear clutching at him, but he charged and side-kicked just as Phipps got his revolver out into the open. The kick connected, knocking the man clean off his feet.
