Archer was quick to dodge the blow. He ducked his head and barreled into the boy, sending them boy flying to the ground. He had his arm against Jack's throat instantly, pressing against his windpipe as Archer got up slightly. "Bad move." he growled pushing him further into the hardwood floor. He wasn't going to get far with this move, it was more for intimidation purposes.

Under normal circumstances, Jack wasn't one for fighting. And even in combat situations he wasn't typically one for fighting dirty. But now he was fighting a psycho who had broken Ruru's mind, courtesy was getting thrown out the window. To send it on it's way Jack chomped down hard on the flesh of the Kuma's arm that he could reach and sent a right hook into the side of Archers nose to break it. The more damage he could do, the better.

Archer howled as his nose broke under Jack's fist. He scrambled up, throwing a quick kick into Jack's side as he went, and backed up. With a grimace he grabbed his bloody nose and shifted it back into place. He groaned at the pain that spiked through his face but shook it off. Blood poured out from his nose and dropped onto his leather vest. "Get up." he growled.

Pain burst through Jack's side at the kick, but he felt a small bit of satisfaction knowing that he had royally messed up the Kuma's face. It wasn't like he had much of a choice in getting up though, it was that or stay down and have his bones broken one by one. He rolled away a bit and sprang to his feet, careful to keep out of the Kuma's range. "You know, I don't think I ever got your name." He said, surprised at how confident his voice sounded. Inside he was a jumbled up ball of nerves. Understandable, he hadn't had a major fight in nearly a year after all.

Archer narrowed his eyes at the Ookami. "My name doesn't matter in this case." he said simply moving in to get a good position. Once he was close enough he threw a simple right hook for Jack's shoulder, hoping to hit and dislocate it. While that went on he slid his left foot and hooked it around Jack's.

Jack moved with Archer, jumping back to avoid both the punch and the kick. The Kuma was much akin to a snake, Jack mused, he supposed he'd have to wind up being a mongoose then... He noted out of the corner of his eye that Eva looked like she had a plan, he hoped she put it in play soon, he needed to get that chair away from the door...

Eva noticed Jack looking at her, deciding that that would be her cue. "Hey Pretty Boy!" she called, raising a brow at him as she gave him a taunting smirk. "Before you try beating the shit outta my bro' an' all, mind tellin' me why you've been letting that little girl boss you around?" Of course she was referring to Hana. "What is she, ten? And she's had you on a leash this whole time, it's kinda sad." she laughed at that last bit. She just had to piss him off enough to get him to come at her, which just HAPPENED to be a very fun specialty of hers.

Archer growled at Eva's words but threw a punch to Jack's face anyways. He jumped back and spun to look at the blonde on the bed. Without missing a beat he had a throwing knife out and launched it across the room at the girl. "That's where you're wrong. I'm the one who had Hotaru on a leash. Hana did as she wished and I didn't stop her except in the Cemetery." he snapped turning back to go against Jack again, not looking to see where the knife landed.

Jack dived out of the way, the punch glancing off his cheek. It hurt, but it wasn't nearly enough to keep him from lunging at the chair and pushing it out of the way of the door. He scrabbled at the handle and opened the door, then leaped aside and at Archer. He gave Eva a 'Hurry and GO!' look. He'd hold Archer off for as long as he could before going after them...

Eva didn't waste time, in a heartbeat she had Hotaru slung over her shoulder and darted out the door. Once she had Hotaru safe and out of there she was coming back for Jack, she just hoped he'd LAST that long...

Archer's eyes blazed with anger as Eva and Hotaru slipped out of the room. He unsheathed his knife and brought it out swiftly. "Forget this. You're going to die." he growled running towards Jack with the knife tight in his hand as he lunged for the Ookami.

Jack jumped back to dodge and then lunged and rammed the psycho with his shoulder. He plowed through the Kuma to leave him twisting around. Jack wasn't sure why fighting this guy was easier than fighting Aiden or Eva, but maybe it was because the goal was in reach. Or already in hand as the case was. "So judging from how mad you got," Jack panted out, he really couldn't keep up his dodging for much longer. He had a feeling a few more blows would be landing by the time he got out of here... "Eva was RIGHT about Hana..." Taunting would keep his focus. Especially if he had had such a bad reaction to it when Eva did it.

Archer glared at the Ookami and lunged again, this time aiming his knife for Jack's upper thigh. If he could pierce the large artery there, Jack would be out for the count. "Blondie couldn't be more wrong." he snapped back during his lunge.

"Oh really?" He jerked away on instinct, though the knife sliced the side of his leg instead of the main artery that he KNEW ran up his thigh. He wasn't COMPLETELY ignorant of anatomy after all. He winced but jumped back a step or two. "Cuz... y'know, I doubt you could have stopped her from doing anything at all if she had wanted to do it." He grinned. "She's not prone to pain-based moodswings y'know..."

Archer huffed in anger. Jack had certainly taken some lessons since Puff jumped him last. It still wouldn't keep Archer from killing him though. The only reason he wasn't already dead was because the Kuma's emotions were out of whack.
He shifted and went in with the knife again, this time aiming for Jack's throat, shoulder worst case scenario. "I stopped her from killing your sister didn't I?" he snapped in reply as he lunged.
