He tried to, but he just ended up skidding and sliding along the polished floor, right towards her...only to then be thrown backwards by her attack.<br/><br/>He grunted as all the air left his lungs in a gasp, and in being knocked backwards, he lost all of his weapons; even the last throwing knife he had clattered noisily against the ground, as the hit and subsequent fall was enough to jostle it out of its sheathe.<br/><br/>He was left prone now, and mutely staring up at Dark Star, defiance burning clearly in his eyes.
