"Could you...please put the knife down? We could talk this out, you know." It wasn't like him to go for a compromise, but he was worried that if he died right here right now, he wouldn't get back in time to protect Tori from Kim. He didn't even know if she still planned on killing the daughter of Aphrodite. "If you told me how I bothered you instead of heading right away for my throat, I wouldn't have ended up killing you." He shrugged, continuing to try talking some sense into her while she hadn't attacked yet.
(We'll see, I guess, do what you wanna do, stab at him when you want to.)

In hopes of pissing him off, she put away her dagger and took out two newer ones. "Shut up; you just got lucky." Kim grunted, shifting into a more comfortable position. It seemed as if-in her opinion-he was rather desperate for her to not harm his most important person. However, knowing herself, she would love to see his face after witnessing the destruction of the demigod. Somehow, her thoughts kept leading back to this, though she knew that if he would just provoke her more, she might actually kill him. Killing him would mean that the demigod would be an easier target, of course. From her perspective, killing Leon was a win-win situation.
It appeared as if Leon wasn't bothered that they were siblings-at least, not as bothered as she. That irked her even more. How was he so calm about it? She didn't even hate him until she was killed by him, and before then, it was just because..well...they were family. She didn't need family, or anymore weaknesses-not that she was about to expose herself.
(Repetitive *sigh*.)

Leon's relief to her withdrawing her dagger was replaced by pure annoyance as she then refreshed her weapons. Now, she had two in the place of one. What, was she trying to take her time in deciding how to kill him? He wasn't a patient person, even when it came to death. "You have got to be kidding me, why are you such a sore loser?" He almost sounded like he was complaining about it.
His muscles burned as he sat forward with narrowed eyes. This was going to hurt, but it was now or never. No more stalling. Suddenly, is leg was out in a flash, swiping under him at Kim's legs just to trip her as she was standing before him. It was her fault for standing so close which had given him the opportunity to lash out. His muscles burned at the action in protest, but Leon didn't care. It was time for him to try and run.

He really did piss her off after all. However, she couldn't exactly choose what to do when all her options were simply amazing. Whatever she did, she'd take pleasure in it, so she might as well take time to choose wisely. Her reactions weren't fast enough for his swipe. She guessed that he really was clouding her judgment. Being swept off her feet caused one of her daggers to fly off in a random direction. Secretly, she hoped it hit him, but she was too busy dropping down into the splits from tripping to care. She skidded her feet on the ground to get back up and, filled with rage, she glared at Leon, her menacing stare boring into him. (really lazy, but I have to wait to see what you do first. o3o;

Her throw wasn't a good one, rather sloppy from flailing around to catch her balance. He had gotten up on his shaky legs, swiping away the stray projectile with an impenetrable arm. The dagger pinged off of the hard concrete floor, skittering away. By the time Kim was back on her feet, Leon had managed to limp away a good distance, retrieving his sword in the process.
"Can't you just let this one go?" He asked with a small growl. They were back to the showdown kind of thing, but they both knew that he was in no condition to face her. If he had turned and fled, she would've nailed him with one of her poisonous blades. He had to keep himself facing the daughter of Chimera. "You seem off today, Kim."

"Shut. Up." She was muttering through gritted teeth. "You really don't know when to shut up, do you? At this rate, I could just run off and kill the demigod, and you could only hopelessly watch. You can't possibly think you can keep up."
It was surprising to her that he was able to move and such, but she knew his speed was still probably hindered by the poison. However, he still made it to his sword before she could snag him with a dagger. Perhaps her sense of hesitance was still there; maybe it was just the shock that he could still move at such a speed.
(Lazy. owo Can I leave soon? o.O)

(Yeah, I guess you could just run off.)
It wasn't really visible, but it was taking all the strength he had to remain standing, much less holding his sword. He stood there, pointing his wavering golden blade at Kim with narrowed gray eyes. "Blah blah, blah blah blah blah, would you like to here more?" He replied, rolling his eyes as he teased her, always doing the opposite of whatever would not annoy her. They could've been a bickering pair of siblings if there weren't weapons in this fight, almost.
"Her guards are gathering. The monsters you sent after her will be dead soon enough. She leaves soon for the trip, and until she gets to the Academy, she will be heavily guarded. You can't get to her without an army, Kim." Leon replied with half a snarl. "And I'll be there. Ill kill you if you do so much as touch her."

As if she couldn't take a few demigod soldiers that were mere half-mortal guards. She admitted that he was clever to keep on trying to provoke her, but something calmed her down inside. Smirking a tad, she raised an eyebrow, ready to piss him off. "Of course I wouldn't send weak monsters after her, though they're not as strong as myself. It's not like I can't back up my threats, Leon. You of all people should know." In a flash, she whipped out to daggers, flinging them at him, one blindly, and one aimed directly at his heart. Somewhere inside, she knew he'd dodge, so with that, she sprinted away, trying to catch the demigod's disgusting scent.

He snarled, his lip curling to show white fangs. "I will get rid of them all. I can back my threats just as well as you!" He was ready for the daggers, but his body wouldn't respond. He dove to the side as quickly as his slowed body would allow. The blades zipped past, ricocheting off the wall. He rolled onto the ground, pain shooting up from his side. The poison had yet to wear of. "Dang it, Kim!" But she had already disappeared, leaving Leon on the ground to wait for the stupid venom to wear off.
