There was blood dripping down Gary’s sides, down his midsection, and his arm was still cut, albeit slowly healing away. Comparing the two Werewolves’ bodies, no one would think Gary was winning in this fight. In fact, ever since it began, there wasn’t a real moment where it seemed as if the Alpha had been winning.
Nevertheless, right now Gary was the one standing, while Midwak was the one that was on one knee.
“I have seen many resilient Werewolves, but you… you’re like freaking zombie!” Midwak shouted in annoyance as he jumped from his position and tried to strike Gary’s head. Lifting both of his arms, he took the blow, defending his head, while lifting his leg up and kicking Midwak right in the stomach once again.
‘With Last Stand at Lv. 2, I have 1 minute 30 seconds to turn the tide, I’ll just have to make sure to make the most of this time!’ Gary thought to himself.
Gary charged in, ignoring Midwak’s counter, as the Omega swung his arm towards his bad side once more. The Aloha swung his fist in an uppercut position. Although he got hit, barely any more blood gushed out, not because it was a weak strike, but because Gary’s body seemed to have already lost most of it.
Unfortunately, Last Stand didn’t grant him invincibility, meaning Gary could and did feel all the pain he was suffering. Still, he trusted in the skill, so he focused everything into delivering a large blow to his opponent’s stomach, lifting him in the air slightly.
“How? How are you still standing?!” Midwak appeared to be loosing his cool, continuing to swipe at the other Werewolf time and time again. Gary turtled up, focusing on blocking the strikes to his head, pinning his elbows close to his chest. He wasn’t keen on testing the limits of his ‘temporary immortality’. System or not, he couldn’t imagine he would survive if his heart or brain got injured so he would protect these two parts for now.
Then, there was a break, a slight gap, when Midwak needed to catch his breath. Moving in again, this time swinging his hand out from the side like a hook, Gary slammed the Omega in the stomach once more.
However, his side was badly hurt, and Gary was unable to deliver another blow.
“What is he doing?” Ian asked. “How is Gary still alive, and why is he just hitting the stomach all the time?”
Everyone watched thought it was strange as well. There were few chances for Gary to attack in this fight. Midwak was able to hit Gary almost four times as much, so when Gary did get a hit, why wouldn’t he go for a vital strike?
“He’s slowing him down.” Innu said. “Strikes to the stomach, they eat at your stamina, mess up your breathing and slow you down. Gary noticed Midwak in general is faster than him, but…I don’t know what his plan is, if he continues like this, then he’s going to die!”
The others thought the same, what crazy plan was Gary trying to come up with. Right now, the teenager was suffering from the fact that Last Stand did nothing to stop his accumulated damage, he still felt all the pain, and his injuries still needed more time to heal, something he sorely lacked.
He was struggling just to stand from the blows on his body, but he bared through it, throwing another punch, aiming at at the same spot like the others. It was as powerful as the others, each striking the same strength causing Midwak to spit out blood.
‘This damn Alpha, he is resilient, and each of his strikes have the same amount of power in them!’
“You can’t win like this, spare yourself the trouble, since we both know it’s only a matter of time!” Midwak stated, not looking too good now after the reacted hits in the stomach, but Gary looked ten times worse.
[30 seconds remaining]
‘This is it, it’s now or never!’ Gary thought, jumping back, but only slightly, as he kept focus on Midwak.
“This is payback…for Kai. You should have never touched one of my people.” Gary shouted, his hands nearly dangling on the floor. Midwak went to take a step forward, but the next second Gary was gone from his sight.

Jumping out from the side, Gary slashed Midwak’s shoulders, cutting deep, and landing in front of him. Midwak went to raise and attack Gary from above, but he soon disappeared again.

Disappearing again, Gary jumped appeared at Midwak’s side, before he lunched at Midwak, he slashed at midway’s back four more times. Midwak desperately swung his arm behind him but hit nothing but the air.

Two claws stabbed Midwak right in the stomach, and they were pulled out, and he was stabbed in the stomach another two times. Opening his mouth, Midwak went to bite down right on Gary, who was in front of him.
A large snap was heard, as Midwak’s mouth hit nothing but the air. From the right, a claw snatched his face, the nails got inside Midwak’s mouth splitting it apart. Gary was using the Lethal Pounce skill to avoid and strike, and each time the Claw Drain skill ran out, he renewed it.
The others could see Gary moving at a crazy speed, going from one place to the other, attacking Midway, making large cuts, large marks all over his body while Midwak looked like a lost Werewolf hitting nothing but the air.
Once again, a strike from the left this time, but rather than a claw, it was a fist as it hit Midwak right in the side of the face, benign his whole body to the side, and him crashing down on the floor.
Gary finally stopped moving, and stood in front of his body. Looking up from the ground, Midwak was confused as he looked at Gary, because he looked better than he did before.

“You told me I would need multiple lives to beat you, didn’t you?” Gary walked up to Midwak, who was now badly injured from the repeated wounds. He got up off the floor, but his stomach was in incredible pain.
His only answer came in the form of a fist, which wasn’t even a claw anymore, but Gary knocked it away, punching Midwak in the face. He hit him cleanly on the nose scrunching it up. Not just one hit, but Gary then threw out another fist, hitting him with his other hand.
Before Midwak could fall down, Gary grabbed his head, using his hands to close his mouth, and pulled it forward.
“Don’t mess with my f*cking gang!” Gary shouted as he threw his fist as hard as he could, hitting Midwak clean on the side of the mouth, shattering the side of his teeth, and his whole body collapsed, falling to the floor.
With that hit, his body was now shrinking, tuning back into its human form. Midwak was spent, he was out of energy and he knew his body could no longer put up a fight, but he finally realised something.
“Now I see… your sudden boost in strength, being able to fight like that. In my former Pack they called ones like you Dark Warriors or Night Warriors, though there was an even better name… Red Eyed Hunters”.
