To be Edible [1/2]

I knew that compared to a Specter I was crap, but wasn't this bitch being too rude? All I said was hi. Why the fuck did she get mad?

Eva Baker then turned and threw a roundhouse kick at my head. As if expecting it, Phillip was already more than five feet away after introducing us. 

'This fucking monocled bastard.'

Concentrating on the task at hand, I shielded my temple with my arm. There was a thud as the woman's foot hit my fist. However, being armed with Liv's {Fate}, such a kick was meaningless to me. 

"Mrs. Baker, please calm down," I said through bared teeth.

But the woman just scoffed and sent a palm to my chest. Once again the effect was neutralized. Was this woman fucking retarded? Undeterred, Eva came closer to ram her shoulder into my chest.
