Puss 'n Boots slipped through the shadows of the massive sewer systems towards his target. When he was hired by this mysterious Shredder he'd been somewhat surprised to learn his target was a rat, and a skilled warrior. He at first thought it must have been a joke based on him being a cat, but once he had been shown the seventy million Shredder was offering to pay and the picture of the target he readily accepted. Now as he silently slid into the lair of the target and his family he felt a strange sense of calm in the area. It was very strange, as he made his way towards the panels seperating another room he calmly looked around for any possible threats but saw none. Good, the less he had to deal with the better. He slid open the door quietly and saw his target standing there quietly holding a green crystaline walking stick. A small smile came across the rats face.
"So, the Shredder has decided to send a feline assassin after me. I suppose he thought it would be ironic. I'll give you a chance though, leave and I won't have to hurt you." The target said in a calm collected voice. Puss was taken aback but didn't let it show on his face, the target was expecting an assassin that meant he was likely armed even if Puss couldn't visibly see the weapons.
"Puss 'N Boots doesn't walk away from his targets rat. Make your peace with the world and prepare to meet your maker." Puss drew his rapier as he spoke and took his fighting stance. He narrowed his eyes at the rat. To his surprise, and his ire the target let out a laugh.
"While clearly an appropriate name, don't you feel that is a bit juvenile for a so called assassin. I hope you were not intending on inspiring fear in my soul." The rat's stance shifted, raising the walking stick, Puss was startled, despite having a cane the rat was favoring neither leg, either it was a deception, or an illusion of a deception to trick him into thinking there was no injury. Puss couldn't afford confusion right now, he had to expect the worst. Anger boiled at the mockery but he had to remain calm, not let it show that the words had gotten to him.
"Mock me if you will vermin, it will only make your death all the more painful!" Puss readied himself to leap at his target, his tail twitching slightly. The rat just smiled calmly at him.
"If you insist on this course then very well, show me what you've got assassin." Splinter readied himself watching Puss for the inevitable pounce. Both of them ready for the deadliest game of cat and mouse in history.

Cat vs Rat, Fencer vs Ninja. One warrior stands, the other falls. You guys decide.
