Attack them
From Lord Of Utterdom
You draw your longsword in one quick motion, and decide to test both their mettle and yours. One of the two turns tail and runs, shuffling off down the road as fast as his legs will carry him.
The other two draw their weapons, but you're quick to pounce. You skewer the rotund fellow with the bad teeth, sliding your sword effortlessly through his belly, then give it a twist as you pull it free. He grunts as you open his belly, spilling both his blood and entrails down the front of his leather breeches. He collapses to his knees, dropping his rusty old sword, and immediately begins trying to hold his guts in.
The other seems unaffected by the scene, and steadies himself, his sword at the ready. He seems poised to strike. He's out of shape and poorly equipped with an almost antique looking morningstar, so it's likely you'll be much quicker than he. However, if he strikes you, it's bound to end badly.
