He actually managed to hit her, and he was surprised, honestly. Maybe his aim was getting better after all - the first thought that ran through his mind was that he'd have to tell Kia. The thought lasted barely a fraction of a second, as a warhammer was now swinging towards him.
"Whoa!" he said as he side-stepped in an attempt to get out of its reach, some agility from his time as a vet dodging the kicks of unhappy cattle or horses coming to his rescue. A blow never landed though, and as he got his shit back together and looked at the hammer, he saw it hovering threateningly over his leg, which evidently didn't quite make it out of reach.
"Whew," he said appreciatively, nodding in understanding. Right, he had to be aware that he was on the defensive as well as the offensive. Gathering his knives again, he flexed his fingers slightly, before giving the nod that he was ready to go again.
He stayed in motion this time, picking up a quick step to the left, throwing a knife towards her leg again, before changing course and suddenly shifting towards the right, and throwing two knives at her arm. He kept a quick pace in this direction, and after another few steps threw yet another knife at her legs, knowing his aim and accuracy would likely be greatly impacted by the introduction of this motion, but also knowing that the only way to improve was to do.
