A/N: This takes place during the flashback section in "Revelations," when Matt finally gets to meet Goliath and the Clan. Bluestone's always seemed to have a bit of a thing for Elisa in my opinion ;P

"Competition"

So, Matt thought, sizing up the huge gargoyle standing next to his partner, this is the competition?

The gargoyle eyed him in return, practically oozing protectiveness for Elisa and a confidence in himself that bordered on hostility toward the smaller human man. Elisa didn't seem to mind the gargoyle's attitude, as if she were completely used to it or even encouraged it. She mostly just seemed glad to be introducing him to her 'friends.' It was like a teenager introducing the boyfriend she adored to her parents and hoping they would like him as much as she did. He shook that idea from his head, once again looking the proverbial boyfriend up and down.

Eh, piece of cake, he told himself, despite the sinking feeling in his stomach.
