Michael

I lunged at Red the moment my eyes met with his, but the moment I did, I felt my chest pull me down to the floor with a great force. Thumping to the earth from the air, I felt one of my ribs crack.

He did something to me... why did he impale me earlier?

"Umf!"

Red walked over to me, and raised his foot to stomp on me. I glared at the bottom of his foot before realizing that he was planning on stepping on me before I finally rolled out.

Why am I so slow?

Red smirked and laughed. "You... I get it ! You still haven't transformed!"

I looked at Red confused while slowly staggering onto my two legs. Raising my fist, I moved to punch him in the chest only for him to dodge it with ease. He caught my punch in his armpit, and forced me to my toes as he pinched the part of my arm that bends.

"When you transform..." he whispered in my ear. Feeling his warm breath on my ear caused me to jerk back. As I moved backwards, Red front snap kicked me in the face. Unable to evade it fast enough, I took the hit, and felt my head rock back while my chin was struck.

As I swayed backwards, I looked at Red, who was jumping around like a professional boxer, arms swaying at his sides as he breathed air.

He's so fast... or am I slow?

I blinked, and before I realized, Red was in my face. He punched my jaw, so I put my arms up to protect my face. He jabbed my chest, so I dropped my arms. My head exposed once again, he took the opportunity to side kick my head.

And I never saw it coming.

The kick was so strong, I flew to the side. Sliding on the cold floor, I felt my head leak warm blood onto the frigid icy floor.

What's... what's happening to me..?

"You just don't get it man... When you transform..."

I touched my head and saw blood. Moving my tongue along my lips, I looked up at Red astonished to taste my blood, and saw his arms change color as he approached me.

"You give in to your inner beast. You allow it to take over... you give over to your impulses.... It's amazing... and addictive. Succumbing to a mindless beast is nothing if it means having my enemies destroyed!"

Red rushed onto me, knocking me to back again. I closed my eyes and roared at Red, hoping to startle him or to knock him off balance. I felt my voice vibrate my skin, and I felt my teeth rattle by the sound of my voice as I opened my mouth.  Opening my eyes, I grabbed Red's wrist before he jabbed me once again.

This isn't good.

Before I knew it- Red was mounting me. With me on the floor, and Red's legs on my waistline, I was trapped. 

Red began to come over me, punching me and gutting me like a fish. I looked up at him terrified and I realized something. The person beating me up didn't even look like Red anymore.

It was a monster.

Red's skin had become blackish purple. His yellow golden eyes suited his reptilian appearance, and made him look all the more terrifying.

I put my hands up to defend my face only to have Red attack my torso. That's when I realized it- I was trapped.

I was loosing.

I was dying.

And there was nothing I could do to stop it. So as I blacked out, I said what the hell.
