As Malik went outside. He went outside, he was checking on the other guy wondering if he hit him. As he was checking to make sure they were not going to get any visitors, malik was attacked from behind as someone placed a plastic bag over his head to try and suffocate him. The person pulled him to the next yard over and bring him into the other looted house to try and kill him but Malik used his elbows to hit the man on his sides.

The struggle continued and Malik was finding himself getting a little weaker but he needed to get the guy off him so using a shift of equilibrium by swinging his legs forward and flinging them back to bring the force forward, he flipped the man over as he lost his grip and Malik was coughing but was tackled through the front door of the house he was about to be killed in. Elbow and kicking the guy, who was in fact, bigger and stronger than Malik, the guy fought back, using his weight to slam on Malik and punch at him and occasionally tried choking him as Malik was reaching trying to blind the guy but with his arm length, Malik couldn't reach and do enough damage. 

Malik was now in real trouble needing help. Ari must've been still inside as he didn't return yet. He noticed out the corner of his eyes someone walking and it looked like Ari, coming out there to check on him. Either this was a good or bad idea but whatever happened next was going to be life or death.
