"Have at ye!"
Despite his apparent display of bravado, the attacks were having little effect on Andrew's adversary. The main reason being, that although the cuts stung, they were not nearly deep enough to cause much of a problem - and Andrew had no way of getting near it without taking a heavy blow himself. This was discovered the hard way, when he attempted to close the gap between him and the beast, but received a solid fist to his chest for his efforts. Having put up a haphazard block at the last minute, the blow only winded him - however, the force of it still flung him backwards, the enemy tossing him like a rag doll, a mere annoyance swatted away indiscriminately. He ended up rolling uncontrollably backwards on the ground, past Irene, eventually colliding with the wall adjacent to her. Scraped, grazed and lightly bruised, Andrew had begun to see that he was growing overconfident - and that his skills had rusted quite considerably. "Jesus, he's got a strong pair of arms... That is going to leave one hell of a mark later... Ow... Hey, do you have something in your eye, or is it just me?"
