Trials of Hircine XIII

I feel a familiar rush of power and adrenaline as I rear up onto my hind legs and charge at the leftmost werewolf which I now dwarf.

I tackle him with claws out stretched, tearing into his chest as he pulls me to the ground with him.

The other werewolf and the Alpha are quick to act, with the other werewolf tearing into my left hind leg and the Alpha tackling me off of the werewolf I had gutted.

I kick my leg free before rolling backwards and throwing the Alpha off in the process before limping up into a standing position with my back against the wall of the alleyway.

I vaguely catch the were-falcon's shadow against the clouds above as I'm left cornered and injured.

The two werewolves block the exit of the alley and we find ourselves on the other side of the manhole.

I feel the muscles in my leg start to mend, before I lunge forward kicking the werewolf into the open sewer before slashing at the Alpha with my claws and goaring into him with my tusks before the Alpha turns and throws me away as I hear the other werewolf begin fighting with the were-alligator.

I fall backwards and land on my back as the Alpha steadies himself before lunging on top of me and digging his claws in to my stomach and tries to tear out my throat with his toothy maw.

I snap back at the Alpha, driving him away from my throat as we roll and tumble over one another.

I yank his claws from my shredded stomach as I hold his head over the open manhole.

Pinning him down, but before I can push him in a shadow darts above as I feel that were-falcon's talons tear into my back.

I fight through the pain, turning around and snapping my jaws around the were-falcon's leg and dragging him down into the sewers with me and the Alpha as we all tumble into the water below.

I feel the bones of the were-falcon snap between the combined weight of me and the Alpha as we collapse on top of it.

Though despite our extensive injuries, me and the Alpha were able to pull ourselves from the water.

But the were-falcon continues struggling to pull itself from the sewer water when the monstrous were-alligator snaps up from underneath the were-falcon.

Dragging and rolling around with its neck trapped within its jaws as it begins a death roll, snapping the were-falcon's neck before turning its attention back to me and the Alpha.

By the time the were-alligator had finished up with the were-falcon my health had regenerated and the hole in my stomach had mended and I could see the wounds I had inflected on the Alpha had almost completed mended as well.

The three of us wearily study each other within this narrow tunnel.

Now that I get a better look, I can see that this were-alligator is massive, barely fitting in the tunnel. Standing a head taller than me and the Alpha, he has thick and stocky neck muscles that transition into a barrel chest with trunk like arms and legs that end with small claws on the tips of his fingers and toes. His most prominent features being his elongated jaws and snout and the thick layer of scales almost like that of a dragon that covers his body.

I can see the scratches from the were-alligator's past fights weren't able to even draw blood.

I lock eyes with the Alpha and we come to an agreement with the Alpha as he growls a plan at me.

"Kill him first... Then I kill you..." He conveys through a low growl before charging at the were-alligator's right side as I charge towards his left.

The were-alligator brings his arms up to block his chest from our blow.

I see the Alpha's attack only lightly scratch the were-alligator's scales, but my claws seem to tear through the scales as if they were paper. Slicing through his natural armor and muscle before wracking across the bone as I slide past him with my momentum.

The were-alligator seems stunned by what had happened happened to his arm. But, he quickly recovers, pushing back the Alpha with a heavy kick before turning around to face me.

Lunging forward as he tries and snap his jaws around my neck. I dive to the side before running behind him and slashing his calf with my claws making him fall to his knees.

He twists behind himself with a closed fist that catches me square in the chest launching me backwards.

I feel the wind get knocked out of me and the cracking of several ribs as I hit the sewer wall.

Luckily, I catch sight of the Alpha back on his feet, harassing the were-alligator long enough for me to chug a health potion and let my natural regeneration do the rest before pulling myself out of the wall and launching myself at the were-alligator's exposed back.

I tear through his back with a vengeance, trying my best to slice through his neck but the bone and muscle is too thick for me to cut through with my claws. I instinctively try to snap my jaws around his neck only to immediately regret my actions.

My teeth bounce harmless off of the were-alligator's exposed scales and he's able to raise his arms high above his head before striking them down and locking me to his back before falling backwards.

He weight crushing me beneath the water as I struggle to breathe.

Luckily, by do this, the were-alligator left his soft scales covering his armpits exposed and the Alpha was just barely able to cut through them with his claws.

Forcing the were-alligator to release me in order to protect himself. I'm finally able to slip free from underneath the were-alligator.

I cough out some water before getting to my feet as I see the Alpha has replaced me, having the were-alligator's arms trapping him in his embrace while the were-alligator begins a death roll and the two fight to see who will snap the neck of the other first.
