Darian leaned back to properly enjoy what was to come, the rest of the Warriors that had come back from the run had recovered sufficiently to actually stand upright, they spread out into a semi circle to eagerly watch what was about to go down.
It was evident that no one tried to go against Chase, the werewolf was practically oozing confidence, it almost made Darian concerned.
He wasn't doubting Leon's abilities, far from it, rather he was fighting the irrational sensation that he got from the thought of Leon getting even the least bit hurt, that wasn't right-
Good thing that Jaxon was fast asleep, this would have made him really anxious.
Chase impatiently tugged his shirt off to reveal a really impressive body, as a matter of fact if Leon hadn't been pressed up against Darian far too many times, he might have been impressed.
They wouldn't even need to shift to finish this but knowing Chase, he wouldn't accept defeat so quickly and would most likely insist they spar in wolf form.
Leon just calmly gauged Chase while he flexed and nodded in the direction of his men who acknowledged his actions to show him support.
"After this farce is over, I'm going to defeat the real Head Warrior over there…" He jabbed a finger in Darian's direction. "...then send you back to your Pack because we don't need posers like you over here and maybe Alpha Noah will finally realize that the only way to fix this Pack's fighting force is to make me the Head."
"You don't ever stop talking, do you?" Leon stared him down although Chase was a couple inches taller.
Chase drew a sharp breath, his eyes flashing silver. "I'm going to enjoy crushing you up with my fists." He half growled, pushing his dark hair back with both of his hands.
Leon just groaned under his breath, this was already easy but pea brain over there was tempting him to make it even more easier. "If you keep stalling, we'll never know." He quipped back, halfheartedly but as expected, he didn't really need to say much.
He wanted Chase to make the first move which could pretty much define the rest of the fight, pissing him off to make him charge in blindly hadn't been a part of his plans but Chase made it so easy.
"You son of a…" Chase gritted out, crossing the space in between them with impressive speed, he lunged at Leon powerfully.
Darian leaned forward unconsciously, just like everyone else in the open space, except for him, the others probably thought that Leon was done for.
Chase blinked in surprise when not only did his hit not make an impact but Leon practically disappeared from his line of sight.
Theo had been expecting that, Leon was one fast mf but his worry only mounted because just that wouldn't be enough to take down Chase.
Leon took advantage of the moment that Chase stumbled forward after missing his first attack, his back opened to attacks, he chose this moment to make his own attack, an elbow jab to the neck.
This forced Chase to the ground, he braced himself with his hands on the ground, one knee up as he prepared to retaliate.
Leon just put some space in between them and waited.
Chase look of fury changed to confusion when he realised that he could not push himself to his feet, what the fuck was going on?
Darian frowned from where he was seated, although it was clear that Leon had the upper hand in the fight, what worried him was the tactic Leon had used.
He was yet to see him use that move and he didn't need to be the one getting the top of his spinal cord rearranged to know how powerful that hit had been or how lethal, what caught his attention though was why Leon had used that move.
He clearly was preserving his strength or he would have taken down Chase in a more showy manner, Leo's pride had been rubbed the wrong way by this Pack's warriors ever since they came here.
It could only mean one thing, that he expected to be attacked by Chase's men after he was done with their leader.
His frown deepened at this, Leo's pride was a recurring factor because knowing him, he'd refuse help.
Why did they think this entire mission was a great idea anyway?
Chase however was in another hell of his own, it was starting to become apparent that he had difficulty getting back to his feet, his men looking at him uneasily.
He was just as confused as any of them, at first, he had been impressed by how powerful the lackey's attack had been and also pleased because that meant that his fight with the actual Warrior Head from Pine Creek would be by all means satisfying to spar with but that slowly changed to panic when he realised just how much damage that one hit had given him.
He couldn't let his men down like this though so he pushed past the shock that had been rendered to his nerve ends and rose to his feet, he was wary now.
He was also starting to realise that the werewolf was someone you had to be extremely careful around.
He finally straightened up to resume fighting when he blinked and Leon was in front of him, that shouldn't even be possible, not without shifting.
The only thing that he saw was Leon's evil smirk before the psycho bashed his head into his, not even wincing from the impact although, Chase could see black dots in his vision and feel blood running down his head.
Chase went down for the second time and this time, it did not seem like he would get up again, an uproar started up at this, Chase's men in a frenzy that their leader was defeated so easily and quickly too.
"Stay out of this, Theo." Leon was quick to say, cracking his knuckles. "And keep your men out of this too."
Darian leaned back to enjoy the rest of the show, Leon was about to scar a lot of people for life.
