It was too easy. Years of dealing with the hell that robot had put him through and now that he gets to fight the real deal, this is what happens? Jake scowled as he came to realize that Dirk was letting him attack. A rage flared up in his throat, wondering what on earth must have made Dirk do this-fortunately he got his answer quick.
He didn't even see Strider's hand move until he felt it pinch his wrist into a unusable state. For a moment that fire lit again within emerald eyes, ready for the strife when Dirk threw his hand around the others neck and failed to choke him. Jake kept quiet though, he knew something must have been up for Dirk to be reacting like this, "What the devil are you-"
He twisted his pinched wrist against the muscle of Dirk's thumb, throwing the others hand off and taking the chance to grab him by the scruff of his shirt and throwing another punch with the arm that hadn't been pinned, aimed directly for the blond mans jaw. Like it or not, Jake wasn't going to give Dirk the chance to try and explain his observations. Not because he didn't understand, but because he knew what the other was getting at and he wasn't going to give Dirk the opportunity to make himself a target.
Not when that clock was ticking down, minutes away from the zero mark.
"-doing?! Quit stalling and fight me already!!" He yelled, kicking the blade back to Dirk's side and pulling a single pistol from where he had stashed it earlier.
