With Barry zipping around too quickly for them to get in front of him, the drones start to huddle in behind him, spraying bullets and gathering in greater and greater numbers: Two, then four, then five.
Meanwhile, the security doors finish opening and several drones come zipping out, swooping towards Barry and trying to get a good angle to shoot him down.
Without much room to dodge left or right, and with the man crowding in on forward space, Yamato is rapidly finding his speed to be almost useless here. He raises his arms to block instead, grimacing as the jacket's sleeves absorb some but nowhere close to all of the force.
He's hyper-aware that he can't just defend, though, that he needs to take this man down as quickly as possible, so he drops his guard to try throwing a haymaker -- wild, slower than his usual punches, and slow enough that before it has a chance to come anywhere close to landing, the baseball bat slams into the side of his head.
There's a blinding flash of pain, and he staggers sideways to collide with the wall, dazed and dizzy, his vision swimming.
