Hearing the boisterous yells of the human who was small in comparison, the scaled monster used its fist like crutches, pulling itself forward as it released deep grunts. The weight it brought with it in its rampaging sprint could be felt, lifting the still air from the ground below as it closed the distance between it and Ren.
Close enough to smell its vile breath that poured out from its silver lips and blackened teeth, Ren coated the edge of his blade in reinforcement, swiftly and smoothly dragging Belus across the space in front of him. The impact of the strike interrupted the incoming attack from the scaled entity as the slash cut through the spiky armor that protected its chest--stopping just short of its flesh that sat below.
--I did it! I cut through it!
It was just as a surprise to him as it was to the savage creature, who rebounded quickly, slamming its massive, rock-like fists against the ground as tremors shook the foundation that they stepped on.
