The two of us stood face to face, neither of us saying a word. This was it. After days of fighting, our battle would finally come to an end.
Damian said nothing, and neither did I. A silent understanding passed between the both of us. Somehow, it felt fitting for our battle to end with neither of us saying a word.
Having fought for so long, we had learned more about each other than either of us had wanted. I knew a lot about the monster standing in front of me, and because of that, I respected him. He was a man of strength.
The perfect opponent to test out my new strength.
The first thing I wanted to test was defense. Usually, it would just take one blow from Damian to shatter my ribs and leave me coughing up blood.
Wondering how my body would react, I attacked first. My fist tore a path towards Damian's head.
I swung my fist in a wide arc. For someone with fighting experience, it would be easy to block or counter.
Before my fist even made an impact with him, Damian reacted.
