Kallik was more than quick enough.

While they trained together in the past, Glaukos had always been the blunt instrument; a hammer seeking a nail. Kallik had always been something more finessed, and he employed this quick-step style as he rounded to Glaukos' haunch, then launched himself at the man's side. Glaukos couldn't tell where Kallik was for a split second - only that his obvious charge had been too obvious, and it had failed.

The sinuous silver body of Kallik landed across Glaukos' back in an almost suggestive manner, and in a panic Glaukos braced with his forelimbs and attempted a donkey kick, not exactly aiming for Kallik but finding it difficult to miss given their proximity to one-another.

If it was successful then Glaukos would turn with a snarl and lunge for Kallik's face, or his shoulder; if it wasn't, he'd have awkwardly swatted the air with the kick and been left to rebalance.
