(???) 'Hehehehehe, want some help weakling?'
(Cinder) 'Who....are....you?.'
Unbeknownst to Cinder, his left eye started glowing blood red with a deep hatred, hunger, and....joy.
'A friend? An enemy? Your true self? Who cares? If I were you, I would be more concerned about those two. Are you going to let it all end here? Now that would be genuinely pathetic.'
'.....'
'What are you waiting for? You're going to die soon so, why not accept my gracious help better than dying, right? hehehehehehe.'
'You're right nothing matters if I die.'
'Now we're talking hehehehehe this is going to be so much FUN!'
Cinder started to crack a mischievous grin; his eyes began to glow blood red. With a body riddled with wounds externally and internally, he stood up.
"Now, which one of you bastards took my arm?"
Both giants started to pick up the pace, closing in on Cinder with unnatural speed.
"Oh well, looks like I have to open up both your stomachs to find out; hopefully, you didn't chew."
Cinder disappeared, reappearing behind giant two; with his one arm, Cinder pulled his arm back only to unleash it like a spear straight into the monster's stomach, but this monster responded by grabbing Cinder's head. Cinder started to laugh with so much joy that it made one wonder if he enjoyed pain.
"Yes, YES! Fight back; otherwise, this won't be any fun! Hehehehe-HAHAHAHA."
Cinder removed his hand from the beast's stomach only to be launched across the room by the other giant, but he wasn't alone. He also brought giant two along for the ride; after they both smashed into the seemly indestructible wall, Cinder got back up with even more blood spilling out.
"Well, this is fun and all, but this poor body of mine won't last long without healing, so without further ado."
Cinder picked up his enemy by his neck; of course, there was some resistance, but Cinder wasn't having any of it, so what'd he do? Like any good parent, he started to rock the baby back and forth until his little tantrum stopped, but this was a special baby, so Cinder bashed him into the wall again and again and again until the "baby" stopped "crying." Now that the monster stopped resisting, Cinder's stomach started to growl.

(Nick) "Sir, I thought Adam was perfect?"
"He is, but let me ask you, what would be the best fuel for evolution?"
"Our products?"
"Yes and no, what our evolution serum allows is for said subject to evolve; it doesn't make a human evolve right off the bat. That's why we have to use enhancements to help said subject to get a head start in the path of evolution."
"But what's that got to do with his diet?"
"Other subjects seem to be the best source of nutrients; I don't know if regular humans would have the same effect, but that is only one factor in the equation for evolution. The other would be the environment."
"Environment?"
"Yes, we have made an environment where only the strong can survive, forced into these situations the subjects only course of action would be to improve or die, but instead of just improving our subjects will evolve little by little."
"Ah, thank you for enlightening me, sir."
"Of course, now be quiet; you're making me miss the show."

Cinder bit into the giant's head, exposing his brain for all to see. Before long, every inch of that brain was consumed and ingested. After finishing his meal, Cinder threw the brainless monster right at his friend; unable to dodge in time, giant one was hit and subsequently bashed into the wall.
Wiping all of the black blood from his handsome face, Cinder started to heal at insane speeds without any more blood oozing out of Cinder; he once again faced his enemy or maybe his next meal.
"So you're the one that took my arm; I guess I should take mine back and yours as compensation; that would only be fair, right? Hehehehehehe."
The last remaining giant pushed off his dead comrade with no more obstruction; he stood back up only to crouch once again.
"Oooh, you're gonna do that again; fun, fun come on, show me what you got."
Like before, the monster seemingly disappeared to the average human eye only to reappear in front of Cinder. Still, this time he didn't rush past Cinder, just like his fellow giant, his stomach was impaled, but along with a hand out his lower back, there was an arm in Cinder's hand.
"Reunited at last; I love a story with a happy ending, don't you friend?"
Before the monster could resist, Cinder dropped his left arm while removing his right now free from the grotesque giant's abdomen Cinder performed an uppercut on the monster's chin with his right leg while doing a backflip.
Cracking sounds were heard from the monster's neck while being sent flying across the room, but he didn't hit the wall like everyone else. His face met the beautiful ceiling; after hitting the top, he started falling only for his back to meet the cold white floor, only to bounce once before coming to a complete stop a few yards away from Cinder.
But Cinder wasn't paying any attention to the giant; all his focus was on his detached arm. After grabbing it, Cinder put it against his stump, defining all logic the arm was reattaching itself back on, and 5 minutes later, Cinder no longer had to hold his arm in place; he couldn't move it yet, but it was only a matter of time.
'I even amaze myself; what more will I be able to achieve in the future? Just thinking about it makes my heart race with excitement.'
Even after all of this, the giant didn't get back up; in fact, he couldn't even move if one didn't hear his groans; no one would even think he was still alive or whatever he was.
"Ahh, I broke it damn, there goes all my fun might as well finish off my prey wouldn't want it to go to waste now would we."
After finishing his meal, Cinder turned towards the door, waiting for his visitors to enter. On cue, a team of 15 members enters his room armed to the teeth with equipment to stop him, aka make him unconscious.
(Team Leader) "Adam, stand down and follow us back to your room."
"Fine, it's not like there's any more fun to be had here anyway; let's go."
'Once you people no longer make me stronger, I'll kill you every single one of you, oh I can't wait.'
Cinder started laughing for no reason; at least it seemed that way to the guards escorting him back to his room.
