Garudon was not using his full potential, even with the whole light show that followed after his threat. His flames went from golden orange to a blood red. The kind that was unnatural and you just could tell it was freaky as fuck by looking at it. It did not matter that the red flames had black screaming skulls and weirdly stretched faces with mouths open in a silent scream.
It was rapidly dawning on Cole that perhaps this was Garudon's best form. His massive dragon body would be bulky and really hard to move with ease. And against an opponent with Cole, it would be hard to escape his speed or the fact that he was well suited to attacking multiple people and keeping them contained for high impact attacks of the kind that can turn a person to dust.
