standing energized like never before Herman felt victorious, something he felt he had missed. fighting against the odds and standing victorious surprised by the show of skills and power displayed in the battle Cruz froze stiff on the floor and Enoch froze stiff for a moment before standing and bursting in excitement.

"wooow",

"wooooooooow"

"like, that was sick bro" said Enoch as he had finally calmed down after is excitement burst.

like a drum Herman was sling shout into numerous trees as his opponent was not yet down nor done with him. like a shadow covered tower stood the perpetrator before howling ferociously, as if declaring the start of the second duel howled.

"awoooooaaaaahhh"

before with all the speed it could muster shot itself at Herman's location in a pile of broken trees.

"splurt, splurt" spat Herman with a mouth full tasting of iron, as he saw blood with each spit he let out of his mouth. until, instinctively he took a swift jump due to feeling a sinister presence behind him.

crash.

"boom"

stood the red wolf man after crushing the trees that Herman crashed through, like a ravenous beast before knocking away a tree with the back of it's arm like a stunt object at Herman who barely dodged it, as well as the numerous attacks it was letting loose before it appeared in front of him.

"Bang!"

//-80//

it knocked Herman back like a toy back to their former positions as Cruz and Enoch were barely standing as Herman skidded on the floor like floor rug.

"splurt"

"cough, cough"

after coughing out, beaten and barely standing Herman turned to Cruz and Enoch and said "buy me some time".

//??Regeneration overload initiated??//.

immediately, Cruz and Herman hesitating, but seeing Herman bloodied face, knew he had another trump card that just needed time.

Realizing it was all best utilized with the aid of distractions which Cruz and Enoch could provide, Herman made an instant evaluation of his bodies state, and to his amazement his body was almost fully healed.

some distance away, in the dark forest, "we got to buy Herman as much time as he needs to get out of here or so I hope" shouted Cruz, "this is not his fight, it ours", shouted Cruz as she and Enoch were being rouses around, but using the shadow to the fullest were flying around like pinball at the monster, as it stood bloody with cut marks all over it's body except for it's face which is guarded with it's arms as it kept moving forward step by step watching for the slightest opportunity to present its self.

clang,

clang, clang.

Boom.

suddenly, as Cruz and Enoch were attacking a shadow passed by them at the monster followed by a powerful gust and lightning sending it flying.

"I hope you guys are not tired, this time we do it as a team."
