Then, in the blink of an eye, as Nova sidestepped, the wolf went back to his original speed, crashing into the ground. Its snout was aching from the impact. It looked more aggressively towards Nova, irate and condescending, filling every tear in its eye.
The wolf lunged again, its claws arching downward, but Nova feinted to the left, faster than the wolf, punching the wolf in its flank as hard as possible, hearing the very bone of it crack, fracturing it into ashes.
The other wolf took the opportunity to sneak up behind him, as the first wolf lay sprawled on the ground, unable to move. Blood was gushing out everywhere, internal and external bleeding taking over the wolf, and in just a matter of seconds, it dissolved, becoming one with nature.
