[@NoobCW] Jacque grit his teeth in aggravation as he found himself having to go on the defensive to avoid being cut open by the female member of the duo. He jumped back just in time to feel the tip of the blade catch him, slicing open his shirt and leaving a nasty scar on his right breast. An honorable man would not have continued to fight from here, no, an honorable man would have just backed away rather than come to blows with a young girl. Jacque was not an honorable man. He was also not one to pull punches, especially after being wounded as Atticus' partner was about to find out Using his free hand Jacque gripped the girl's sword hand and pulled her towards himself. The bounty hunter moved forward as he brought her towards him and drove his forehead straight into her nose. His assault didn't end there, rather than give his opponent time to recover Jacque released his grip and swept her feet out from under her before swiftly kneeling and planting his knee on her throat. He shifted his weight a bit so as not to crush her windpipe yet, but left just enough pressure to get his point across, "[b][color=004b80]This is your one warning, you move or try to cast a spell and it's over. Don't test me.[/color][/b]". Jacque made sure to pin down her sword arm before he dared to take his eyes off of the girl to look at Atticus, whom had moved quite a ways away much to his disquietude. Jacque could feel the trickle of blood running down his chest, clinging his shirt to his skin with its warm stickiness. The wound was throbbing with pain, and would probably need a good cleaning and a few stitches, which Jacque immediately took to mean more money being spent. "[b][color=004b80]Unless you want to have to go searching for a new underling, I suggest you get back here![/color][/b]" Jacque snarled to Atticus, making no effort whatsoever to hide the malice in his tone.
