With a sudden burst of speed, the ground shattered and the air behind him exploded.
The young man vanished into a thin grey line as he closed the gap between him and his prey. His muscles coiled like springs, and he pounced, his hands and feet digging into the ground as he leaped forward. In an instant, he was right above the creature.
His claws grabbed a hold of its neck with an iron grip.
The Massive Stag struggled, its glowing antlers flaring as it attempted to shake him off. But the young man's beast-infused strength was too much. With a swift motion, he swung his body around the neck of the beast.
"CRACK!!!"
The beast staggered and then fell to the ground, unmoving.
