Teddy saw the hand come up and realized what Billy was going to do a second too late. It kept him from taking down Billy as easily as he had hoped to and it threw him off balance, but a swing around sidestep had him on feet again with his fists held up in a boxer's pose.
"Awesome move dude." He drew back to let Billy throw the next move out. It gave him time to think over what strategy he wanted to go with. Being evasive seemed to be it, but he kinda wanted to win this little match too.
