11/24/08(Mon)23:04 No.3058560I was 16 and spending a summer at my grandmothers house by the beach.
I found that I loved to walk around the beach town during the middle of the night when everything was quiet, heading all the way down to the tip of the peninsula, then back up along the beach to cut in towards my grandmas house, so I could get in at the crack of down, then get in bed for about 6 hours before she woke me up.
One particular night I decided I would take my bike instead, and rode out, I got about to the middle of town, and suddenly start hearing the chain and tires of another bike behind me. There is this enraged looking mexican dude riding this little bmx bike at full speed in my direction, I don't really know what to make of this at this point, so I roll to a stop.
He yells something, and launches himself off of his bike at me, hits me, knocks me and my bike over, then starts punching me, telling me he is going to kill me over and over.
Now, I take hits really well, I don't really react to them much, and was already surprised, he hit me about 10 or so times, all the while my mind just whirling in confusion about why this was happening, before I said really calmly, "Alright dude, you've exerted your authority over me, now chill out", I don't know why I said this, or how I got it out so calmly, but he got up off me with a weird look on his face, spat on me, then started wheeling his bike off slowly while I sat up and sort of touched at my face to see how fucked up I was.
I had a bloody nose, and my cheek felt swollen up, but otherwise I was fine, so I continued on my merry way, completing my bike ride around the peninsula before getting back to my grandmas house.
To this day I have no idea why this happened, but I figure it fits the criteria for a random encounter.
I don't what the Diplomacy DC is for calming an enraged Mexican down is, but I sure as fuck rolled a natural 20 there. |
