The Tier 6 creature loomed over him, its massive form filling the space, and its eyes gleaming with a malevolent light. Johan's heart pounded in his chest as fear and uncertainty threatened to overwhelm him.
"Damn it, why did I end up here?" Johan muttered under his breath, trying to steady his nerves. He knew that running would be futile; the monster was too fast and too powerful for him to escape.
He glanced back, searching for a way out, but the alleyway was a dead end. There was no escape route, and he was cornered. He knew that he had to face the creature head-on, no matter how daunting the odds were.
