Point-of-View: Aarav Gill

"I shall crush you to a bloody pulp, and then devour you," Remarked Deino maliciously, steadily tightening his grip around me.

Suddenly, he let go of me with a startled gasp of pain as bone spikes burst out all around my body, skewering his hand, before I took aim and fired a piercing blood beam at the middle of his head as I fell out of his grasp.

He tilted his head across in alarm, snarling in pain as my beam sliced through his left eye, before growling as he lunged forward and whipped his right blade towards me.

I launched myself back with a pressurized burst of blood while simultaneously raising my Personalis Arma up defensively.

His blade collided against my BBB with devastating force, an agonizing twinge of pain erupting across my forearm as I got sent hurtling back through the air at a breakneck speed, before repairing the bones as I brought myself to a halt with a pressurized burst of blood behind my back.

It looks like he more or less tripled in size, along with his blades. He’s definitely over twenty feet in height, and his blades look like they’re about five meters long, and about a meter wide.

I let out a slow exhale before extending out dozens of blood tendrils with razor-sharp, curved bone blades at the ends, before sending them zipping out towards him.

He raced forward, swinging his blades out to deflect the tendrils as he closed in on them, easily batting them away before his gaze darted across as I surrounded him from multiple directions with the tendrils.

As he shrunk back down to his original size, I sent them converging in towards him in unison while simultaneously firing out a piercing blood beam from BBB, aimed straight at his Core.

He blocked the beam with one of his blades, before snarling in pain as my tendrils pierced his skin, starting to bore into him before he suddenly twisted his body and spun around rapidly, wrenching them out before they could dig into his flesh too deeply.

He whipped his blades out with a fierce roar, tearing the tendrils apart before turning towards me and charging forward.

I planted my feet against the ground and fired out another piercing blood beam, before switching BBB to Bone Mode as he blocked it, firing out a flurry of bone bullets towards him.

He crossed his blades in front of himself to block them, a handful of the projectiles slipping part his defense and grazing his skin, a few getting lodged in, before he lunged forward as he closed in.

As he swung his blades in towards me from either side, he suddenly froze and sprang back as the ground shifted, right as dozens of bone spikes erupted out in front of me, branching out rapidly, his right foot getting caught in one of the spikes, which branched out and spread up into his calf.

He swung his left blade across, slicing through his knee and severing his leg, hopping back as his leg steadily regenerated, growling ominously as blood poured out and splattered across the sand.

"That looked pretty painful. So, you still convinced that I’m incapable of killing you?" I inquired with a taunting smirk.

"Cocky little shit...by the time I’m done with you, you will be pleading for death," He uttered venomously, thudding his foot against the ground emphatically as his leg finished regenerating.

"I don’t know, it’s starting to seem like you’re all talk. Maybe you should prove that you aren’t all bark and no bite," I laughed condescendingly.

He seems pretty hot-tempered, maybe stoking that will give me a better chance...I might be holding my own for now, but the smallest misstep and I’m all but certain to die.

"You will come to deeply regret provoking me, insect," He growled murderously, before rushing forward with a snarl, the ground rumbling as he rapidly grew in size and leapt forward, swinging his blades down towards me.

I extended out dozens of bone spikes up towards him before racing away, before he whipped his left blade down with a flick of his wrist, shattering the rising bone spikes before they could reach him, his right blade zipping towards me with immense force.

I launched myself away with as much force as I could generate as I triggered a pressurized burst of blood, before wincing in pain as the edge of the blade grazed the upper-left side of my back deeply, the serrated teeth across it tearing my skin to shreds, my body shuddering in pain as the teeth nicked my shoulder-blade.

I blasted myself further away with another pressurized burst of blood, before spinning around and firing out a piercing blood beam at his head.

He won’t be able to get his blades up in time, this should-...

Suddenly, he shrunk back down, the beam whizzing over him before he raced towards me, his neck tensing as he began to close in, before he snapped his jaws open and unleashed a loud, deafening roar, dazing me as it engulfed me, my head spinning slightly as I got disoriented, my ears ringing.

I bit my lower lip to regain my bearings before blasting myself away to my right as closed in and lunged at me, swinging his left blade straight down towards my head.

I let out a stifled yell of pain as his blade collided against the top of my left shoulder, the serrated edge sinking into my skin, before he yanked the blade back with a powerful jerk of his arm, the serrated edge sawing straight through my flesh and bones, severing my left arm in an instant.

I gritted my teeth and unleashed an immensely concentrated, pressurized burst of blood from the stump left around my shoulder to blast myself away as he drove his other blade towards the middle of my torso, grazing my left side, tearing my skin apart.

As I launched myself away, my right shoulder hit the ground, before I skidded away several meters, coming to a sliding halt by the edge of the shore, before scrambling back onto my feet as I stemmed the bleeding from my left shoulder.

I lifted my gaze, to see him pick up my severed arm, ripping the armor on it off before wolfing it down, blood streaming down the corners of his mouth as sickening squelches and crunches rang out.

"Oh, how surprisingly appetizing. It seems humans really are a delicacy. Yes, I now know how I shall kill you. I shall eat you alive, bit by bit, prolonging your death for as long and painfully as possible," He declared maliciously, my blood dripping off his jaws onto the ground...
