Irvine is strong, but the sheer mass and desperation behind Greg's defensive attack are nothing to sneeze at, and standing one-legged to deliver his kick he's already off-balance. He staggers heavily to the side, slamming into the wall, and when he locks eyes with Greg again he actually looks angry for the first time tonight. This is proving far more difficult than he'd initially anticipated; it might be better to abandon this pursuit and go after less capable prey.

Still, he's a stubborn vampire. Commanding Jamie to follow suit, he lunges at the pair while they're close together. If he can sink his claws into the furry brat while he's unprepared and dispatch him, all he'll have to worry about is the already-weakened Greg - and the idea of cracking him apart one punch at a time is looking better and better the longer this fight goes on.
