"Why not?" Ty growled. He wasn't thinking due to the fact that his frustration had finally boiled over. Plus, he had a trump card in his back pocket; she would never seriously harm him with James around. "I mean you give me shit for no reason. And I'm sick and tired of it." He said forcefully.

"Oh boy." James muttered. "This... could get ugly."

Sophie snarled, thinking why he was being so bold now, then had a look of realization, then switched to a disgusted look. "What a coward. You hide behind your own friend, one that has lightning powers. It has made you weak." She snarled out. Initionally, she snarled out because she was playing out the part as a drill instructor. Now, it was out of disgust.

"You think I'm hiding behind him?" Ty asked her boldly. "Look at him." He pointed to James, who was absentmindedly stroking Nuata's hair with a smile on his face. "Do you really think he even notices this?" Ty asked her after a moment. "And even if he did, well he's too wrapped up in Nuata to do anything."

James had noticed, but was now pretending not to. He knew that Ty needed to assert himself in order to gain Sophie's respect.

LIikewise, Nuata had noticed but played the "lovesick woman" to see where this was going. And she could tell, it was going south fast.

"I dispise those who hide behind others." Sophie said, gripping her knife hard enough to break it and her eyes fluctuated between colors.

"Well I'm done hiding behind James." Ty hissed as he dropped into a fighting stance. "You see, my father runs a fighting type dojo and he's also a martial artist. So I know a thing or two." Ty grinned. "So if you want to bring it..." Ty beckoned to Sophie with the 'come on' hand motion. "Then bring it."

"Oh lord..." James muttered. "He's lost it. His pride only allows him to take so much... and Sophie crossed the line."

"You forgot..." Sophie said, vanishing and slammed Ty to the wall with a hand to his chest. "There is a noticible gap in power bewteen us! It will be a cold day in Anger if I lose to a man like yourself!" She said, sounding like she is interested in this fight.

Ty hit the ground with a dull thunk. He stood up and spit a bit of blood out, but he didn't look like he'd been affected by the blow. "You're faster than I expected." He admitted. "But that's just because of your blood." He added as he casually walked back over to Sophie.

"He's going to get himself killed." James frowned.

"There are some days I curse my own powers, but fools like you make me realize why I need them - to make them learn their places!" Sophie said, grabbing Ty, hefting him up and slammed him onto his back. "It's suicidal to attack a vampire and an assassin in close quarters combat. Just ask Altiair or Ezio." Sophie said, referring to the two most famous assassins in the Old World, one from the Middle East, the other from Italy.

Ty hopped up to his feet directly from his back and actually got a punch in, slamming Sophie on the jaw with a right cross as she was finishing her brief monologue.

"Damn." James smiled. *Good going Ty. Good going.* He thought to himself. To Nuata he said, "Well, he got one more punch in than I expected him to."

Sophie looked stun, then turned back around with a battle-crazed look to startle him and uppercut-kicked him, dabbing her finger into her mouth and pulled it out to reveal that he actually made her bled.

Ty was knocked into the air, but adjusted himself gracefully and managed to land on his feet. Noticing that he had made Sophie bleed, he smiled in a somewhat insane manner.

"Oh shit." James was considering stepping in at this point. "He's got the face that he only puts on when he's on the football field. He wants to tear her apart now."

Ty charged at Sophie and threw a series of quick rights and lefts, alternating between targeting Sophie's stomach and head.

Sophie used quick maneuvering and backhand him, her nails scratching him and drawing blood. "Now we're even." She said, licking the blood. "A lot of wrath is in you, boy. Make sure it doesn't cloud your judgement like leaving yourself open." She said, vanishing and slamming a foot in his back.

Ty winced but didn't fall. He reached up and stroked the cuts from Sophie's backhand. He took his finger and licked some of his own blood and spit it out. He then muttered something like, "I'll never understand how they can do that..."

"Should I..." James murmured as he watched Ty sit back and wait for Sophie to come to him. Ty had realized that an aggressive attack wouldn't work on Sophie and that he'd have to sit back, pick his spots and execute counters perfectly.

"No." Nuata said, wanting to see just how much potential this boy had in close-combat.

Sophie knew if she truly cut loose, she'd kill him, so she was just toying with him. She dashed toward him and used elegant kicks and leg slams that belied the strength of the hit.

Ty was able to block every single one of Sophie's attacks with relative ease. Something that shocked him a bit. *She's holding back. I guess I should make her pay for that.* Ty thought as he caught Sophie's leg, kicked her in the stomach and then tossed her away.

Sophie took out a knife and used it as a brake while close to the ground. She blindly charged, hands in palm strike forms. "Let's see how long you can last with the Captain of the Assassination Corps!" She yelled, as she got nearer.

"Bring it hun." Ty muttered as he dropped into a fighting stance and prepared to block Sophie's coming palm thrusts.

"Wow." James was incredibly impressed with his friend. "He told me he had been training a lot... but I didn't think he'd gotten this good."

She smirked and hit the ground with her hands and flying double-kicked Ty in the chest hard.

"Oooooh!" Nuata said, flinching.

Ty flew into the wall and slumped to the ground. He was clearly injured at this point, but he shook it off and stood up. His ankle was barely sprained, and it showed. He was limping towards Sophie was an angry expression.

James couldn't take it anymore and finally stepped in. Putting Nuata down lightly, he activated his electric powers and stepped between Ty and Sophie. "Alright you two. Enough is enough." He made it clear that this was an order. "Ty, you're an idiot. You've gotten real good, but you bit off more than you can chew here. And Sophie... I've stood by for too long and watched you pick on my best friend. I thought it was funny for awhile, but enough is enough." James chastised both of them before sending an icy cold glare Sophie's way.

Ty was now smiling. James was finally sticking up for him. Even it had taken over a year.

Sophie nodded, turning away. "Yes, sir." She said as a commander to a general, then walked away. Nuata just hit her over the head. "The hell's the matter with you?!" She said. "Something about him I don't like." Sophie said, referring to the possible inner hatred Ty has for daemonkind.
