The Beast Awakens

 The Beast Awakens – Round Two
The Battlefield – A Storm of Power
The ground was in ruins. Cracks ran deep through the earth, smoke and dust filled the air, and the once-standing buildings had been reduced to rubble.
Only two warriors remained standing.
> Mri and Zero.


Mri's yellow aura flared like a raging fire, his body bruised, blood dripping from his lips. His breaths were ragged, but his eyes—
> They burned with determination.


Zero, on the other hand, was an unstoppable force. His yellow aura roared like an untamed storm, his red eyes glowing with raw, mindless power.
He didn't flinch.
He didn't hesitate.
> He was a weapon. A beast. A nightmare.


And now, he was coming for the kill.

The Brutal Clash
> FWOOOSH!


Zero disappeared.
Mri barely had a second to react—
> BOOM!


A devastating punch to the gut made his entire body bend inward, a shockwave exploding from the impact.
His eyes widened.
> CRACK!


Before he could recover—
Zero's knee smashed into his ribs, sending him flying backward.
> BOOOOOM!


Mri crashed through a collapsed building, debris burying him instantly.

Mri's Struggle
> Haaah… haaah…


Mri gasped for breath under the rubble, his vision blurry.
> Shit… he's fast.


His body screamed in pain, but he forced himself up.
Just as he stood—
> FWOOOSH!


Zero was already above him.
Mri's instincts kicked in—
> BOOM!


He dodged, rolling away just as Zero's punch shattered the ground where he had been standing.
> CRACK!


The earth split apart, a crater forming beneath Zero's fist.
Mri wasted no time.
> He countered.


> FWOOOSH!


He appeared behind Zero in an instant—
> BAM!


A crushing elbow to the spine.
Zero staggered forward.
> BAM!


A roundhouse kick to the ribs.
> BOOM!


A devastating punch to the face, sending Zero skidding backward.
Mri panted, clenching his fists.
> I can do this…


> I can win!


But then—
Zero stopped moving.
His body twitched.
His aura exploded.
And then—
He vanished.

The Turning Point
Mri's eyes widened in shock.
> Where—?!


> CRACK!


Before he could react—
A fist buried itself into his chest, so deep it felt like it had reached his spine.
His body froze.
> BOOOOM!


Mri was sent flying backward at supersonic speed, crashing into the remains of a truck.
> CRASH!


He gasped, coughing out blood.
His ribs cracked.
His vision blurred.
> Shit… I can't…


> I can't move…


Before he could even think, Zero was already there.
> THWACK!


A brutal kick to the face.
> CRACK!


A devastating punch to the ribs.
> BOOOM!


A knee driven into his spine, sending him crashing to the ground.
Mri couldn't keep up anymore.
Zero stood over him, his yellow aura burning like a wildfire.
He raised his foot.
Mri's eyes barely focused.
> No… I can't… lose…


Then—
> BAM!


Zero stomped on his chest.
Mri felt everything shatter.
The pain—unimaginable.
His vision faded.
His body went limp.
> Darkness.

Mri – Defeated.
Zero stood over his fallen opponent, his expression blank, his breathing calm.
He had won.
His mission was complete.
Yet…
For a brief moment…
A small flicker of something… familiar passed through his red eyes.
But before it could take form—
The monster within took control again.
Zero turned away.
Leaving Mri unconscious in the ruins of the battlefield.
