Two mistakes were made in a single moment. The first was Danny broadcasting a surprise attack towards an assassin with his hand currently around his sister's throat. The second was that same assassin underestimating the frail teenager and treating him like nothing more than a nuisance. He expected for his cheek to be met with a broken fist, but instead he was sent sliding across the floor.

Caty dropped to the floor and immediately started coughing to clear up her pipes. The pain and discomfort seemed to fade and she reached her hand out to Danny's. [color=0244FB]"I'm fine, actually, but it looks like you discovered another one of your new abilities, but this isn't over yet."[/color]

She and the assassin stood to their feet at the same time, but he was quicker to move. He was annoyed and on the brink of angry. They just made what was supposed to be an easy execution something he's going to take joy in finishing. He charged forward and stopped directly in front of Danny before sending him flying backwards with a kick straight to the chest. But he wasn't done and Caty could sense it. He dropped his leg and pulled a knife from its sheath on the side. He quickly turned with knife in hand attempting to slash across her chest.

She countered his slash by stepping backwards and grabbing his wrist and holding it in place. He dropped the knife and caught it with the other hand before slicing at her leg. He hit his mark drawing blood and causing her to let go of his other hand. He quickly moved to attack her again and this time his movements blurred together in a frenzy of a movement using both his knife and fist to attack her.

She was somehow not only able to keep up with his movements, but effectively dodge or block his attacks as well, but she wasn't sure how long she'd be able to keep it up.
