“You are mistaken,” says Stealth grabbing the enormous figure and throwing to the ground. The humanoids are in amazement of the superhuman abilities of the warrior. “Impressive...very impressive,” retorts Titan swings his three ball mace at the hunter’s direction who performs three back flips. “Take that,” yells Stealth performing a somersault and striking Titan in his chest and abdomen. “You motherfucker,” shouts Titan in pain kneeling to the ground. “Get over here now,” yells Goliath swings his battle mace at the hunter. He growls in anger, trying to kill the hunter. “I am not through with you yet,” shouts Titan attacks the warrior once more. Stealth performs a side punch and power drives him to the ground then penetrates his weapon deep within his heart. “Another one bites the dust,” says Stealth as Titan falls to the ground with a

    All animals hunt for survival, yet humans have developed a beastly way to make a game of it. In this sport, hunters thrive on the misfortune or weakness of others, while prey often forfeit the opportunity to avenge their attackers before it is too late. In rare occasions, the hunted will revolt and strike back, leaving the hunter astonished.

As soon as the two met, Lone tried to swing his glaive into George's abdomen but failed to connect his hit as he was hit by the incredibly fierce and powerful blow that George had prepared while running straight to his face.

A large impact was made as he slammed against the nearby wall, almost breaking it, he then slumped to the floor. "I didn't kill him did I?…
