Allen hit the ground, and, vomit some blood out, pain etched across his face.
Man, that looks really painful.
Drek then closed the distance in an instant, leaving him completely at his mercy, with his sword ready for a fatal strike.
Wait! No, he's not going to kill him, right?
There's no way, right?
But before I could finish my thought, I did something I didn't expect at all...
***
Damn, he's about to kill him...
I can't let that happen; it could jeopardize one of our major upcoming projects of both of our companies...
I lunged forward, desperately trying to intervene.
But Drek was too fast.
He sidestepped my attack with effortless grace, his blade swinging in a deadly arc.
I knew it...
There was no way I could have saved myself.
With a flick of his wrist, Drek sent me crashing backward.
My body hit the ground hard, my vision blurring.
"Ughhhhhhh, why is it always my back?"
