[Hinata doesn't fight getting pushed back; he almost stumbles again, but he keeps his footing. If anything, he lets out a soft yell of surprise -- who'd have thought poor, sweet Clarine would have been the one chasing him??
But with Matt's attention on her, it gives Hinata his chance. He could run, and Clarine could kill Matt, and give him his chance to escape!
Or he could draw a pistol, quickly firing twice -- toward Matt. He hadn't been faking it, when he'd killed Rei; he's not a practiced shot, for as much as the trial back on Jabberwock had seemed like a shooting range. Both shots would go slightly wide, though maybe there's a dose of Super High School Level Luck with him, for once; they'll hit the same shoulder as is connected to the hand holding the gun.
