The legalities: I do not own any of the Expendables franchise (characters, places, and objects especially) and this is mostly au.Rated M just to be on the safe side.

Also, please don't be afraid to write reviews. I would love to hear from you all!

Hope you enjoy!

Prompt: "Is there a problem here, gentlemen?"

There weren't many things that Jacoba had not seen when she would be at any of the bars in town. She couldn't even begin to count how many fights that she'd been a part of or how many people (because it had been the women just as much as the men) had hit on her over the years. There had also been enough times where she had witnessed some of the (drunker) bar patrons starting to bully those patrons they deemed easy targets.

Until now, none of these drunks had even tried to target Thorn or any other member of the Expendables when they got the notion to bully someone. Jacoba thought that that was mostly because the team stayed in a group. Today, she had come to the bar with Thorn, mostly to just get the hacker out of the HUB. She'd only been away from him for about a minute, but when she'd turned back towards the table that he was sitting at, she had to groan. There were now a collection of bikers hanging around the tables, and, from her perspective, it looked as though they were harassing him.

Jacoba turned and quickly flagged the bartender down. She leaned closer to him and whispered, "You may want to have some muscle on stand-by." He nodded slightly before she stood straight once again. Having passed along her message, she sighed deeply before walking over to the table. This would be interesting.

Once she had gotten close enough, she crossed her arms and cleared her throat. "Is there a problem here, gentlemen?"

All of the bikers turned to face her. The one closest to Thorn scoffed at her. "This is none of your concern, little girl."

Jacoba raised her eyebrows as she could tell that Thorn was really trying to not crack up. "First off, I can wipe the floor with the lot of you. And secondly, I would appreciate if you all left my brother alone."

By the time that she'd finished speaking, all of the bikers had started moving towards her, all trying to look extremely menacing as they did so. The first biker (who was, apparently, the speaker out of the group) snarled at her as he stalked towards her. "You wouldn't get very far, little girl."

She scoffed before smirking and taking off the flannel shirt she'd been wearing. "Actually, I would bet that my brother and I will come out the victors. Don't you agree, brother?"

Thorn smirked as he stood, stepping back slightly as some of the bikers turned towards him. "Actually, I think that you've got this well in hand." His smirk grew as she rolled her eyes and got into a defensive stance. "I wouldn't want to ruin your fun."

Shaking her head, Jacoba smirked before beckoning the bikers forward with a wave of her hand. Thorn was right. This was definitely going to be fun.
