"Grrrr..."
The moment Alex heard the growls and saw the bloodthirsty, frenzied eyes of the smilodons, he knew one thing.
'I don't have time.'
His body trembled again, due to the effect of adrenaline as well as fear, as the emotions that had been pushed away for a while were now slowly settling in again.
But be it his nervous, alert, fearful, or calm thinking, every one of them told him to do just one thing.
*Inhale**Exhale*
Alex looked away from the beasts; his gaze turned to look at the tree in front of him as he took a deep breath, trying to momentarily pause the shivering of his body.
His gaze turned determined as he balled up his trembling fist, and then...
*Baam**Crack*
He punched the tree with all of his might; the tree, unfortunately, didn't completely break free.
*Hah**Hah**Hah*...
Nervousness started to creep up as he saw this, but his eyes remained resolute as he punched the tree again.
