Trials in Mythica

*Cramer's Revenge*

Tris' POV

I watched the transformation take place, as scary as it was , it was also entrancing. I couldn't take my eyes off of it. That was my first mistake. The second was me not equipping my swords before he moved.

Pinned down beneath his legs and the slobber dripping down his Jaws , I felt fear like I hadn't felt in a long while, but it was just a game right ?!.
I couldn't be feeling fear this way. Hells Feet!, I don't even feel fear in the real world. His eyes moved to look at the swords behind my back. His level was what frightened me the most. It wasn't 18 anymore, it was now 38, it had changed when he did.

"So, this is the person that old man gave his legacy to".

It took me a while for my brain to register that he was talking to me.

"You mean me!?!." I foolishly asked.

"Yes, you dumb human idiot."

"Well i don't know what old man you're talking about, and I don't know the legacy you say he gave me." I said that with confidence, now that my fear was gone, and I made a little promise to myself to never fear anything this world would throw at me ever again.

"Seems your stupidity will get you killed then." He said.

All this while he was still atop me.

In anger I willed all my being into getting him off me, all the past fear, the anger, the adrenaline of before, and then suddenly he got blasted off me.

I received a notification in my HUD window, I didn't even bother reading it, and I stood up and immediately drew my swords. I watched as the Werewolf,  circled me watching me like some kind of prey. Which I probably was for it. I blinked once and it was gone. I turned around expecting it to be at my back. But I didn't see it there.

"I guess you have some fighter instinct in you.."

I turned towards the direction of the voice and could only see two pairs of eyes staring at me.

"...and for this I will tell you my name before I kill you human. My name is Cramer, the wolves you just slaughtered were my pack. Cramer's pack we were called. As the Alpha I can become a werewolf , and at times of full control I could even become a full human–"

"If you're gonna kill me, just do it already." I interrupted him, while he was still talking. I guess that was how Warp Corp designed his character. Well I wouldn't care, so I just wanted to get on with it.

"Well then.." he said "...since you're so keen on dying early. Prepare to meet your maker."

I took a stance that I used in real world situations while fighting opponents that were a bit faster than me. Meanwhile, my plan was never to fight but to create an opening so I could try and run away. And just as I expected he disappeared from my sight. This time I was prepared, I ducked low and used my new skill [Universal Push] , at the same time, I swung my swords in a circle.

All My [Push] did was slow it down, which was what I wanted after all. The slash I did was just in case I could hit him from whatever angle he came from. And my calculations were correct, as I heard a ripping sound from my right. I stand erect and turn to face the trail of blood towards Cramer. He was holding his left side while grinning at me.

"Not so Alpha now are we,!?!." I asked him.

"Wipe that smug look off your face, the only reason you can be able to injure me with your weapons are due to the nature of the swords themselves. Or did you think you actually stood a chance against me."
