Stopped short with his blade the moment it didn't connect, releasing a hand from the blade's pommel, bringing his now free arm up to block the oncoming boot. He used the reversal of momentum to push his opponent backward forcefully, possibly sending him toward his own ally(Aki) back first and maybe even causing him to release his weapon. His eyes darting between targets momentarily, focusing on his main attacker solely. 

The hound hiss-growled dangerously, it could plainly understand threats, she slowly pushed forward, her plates flaring up like reactive armor. Her claws lightly tapping the asphalt as she counted on his preemptive trigger squeeze, prepared to move accordingly should the weapon fire.

Cole dived out of the way of Aki and rolled away from the stranger, the white haired man took out his magnum from before and flipped out the cylinder, he held his hand above the bullets in the cylinder and made a closed fist with the hand to the point where black gunk oozed from his hand onto the bullets." Great some guy from somewhere wants to kill us, and I didn't even get a chance to debrief everyone." Cole then flipped the cylinder back into the barrel." Doubt you'll keep going if I hit you with a couple of these." Cole told the guy firing a couple rounds at the stranger.
