Matt shrugged. "Thanks for the offer, Marc, but I'm sure I can hold my own if I have to. Especially if--" He cut himself off. He couldn't tell them what he could do. The fact of it was, if Marc wasn't fighting, then Matt could leech his skill and speed, becoming the 'world-wide master', himself. But how on Earth was he supposed to tell anyone that? 'Hey, look...I can steal your hard-earned skills and talents and use them as my own. Don't freak own."

He quickly corrected himself. "Especially if...uh...I'm prepared. I've got a second Dan in JiuJitsu, so I'm well enough prepared."

[i]Shit. Now they're going to ask questions. This day has just been full of incredible events.[/i]
