Karven's head snapped back as Zain's fist met his jaw clean.
The impact launched him off his feet.
He smashed through a bent support beam.
Crashing into the side of a half-collapsed wall.
Zain lowered his arm, flexing his knuckles.
"Wow," he said with a grin.
"You actually took that like a champ. Still breathing, Karven?"
The groan from the rubble was answer enough.
But before Zain could take a step forward...
A roar erupted from the side.
"RAAAAH!"
Drayv charged, his skin now fully covered in jagged rock.
His arms swung wide, ready to crush bone.
Zain's grin didn't fade.
"Alright. Let's see what the boulder has."
Drayv leapt into the air, bringing both fists down.
Zain slid under the slam and turned.
He caught Drayv mid-fall by the chest.
His muscles strained as he held him in the air.
But Drayv wasn't done.
His mouth opened wide, revealing rows of sharp stone teeth.
"Take this!"
Zain narrowed his eyes.
He shoved a foot into Drayv's jaw, pinning it open.
