The beast shook its head, trying to wake itself away from the dizziness.
Its red jewel pulsed with an ominous light.
It was like his rage had given energy to the jewel on his head.
In the first place what was that gem, I have never seen or heard a shadow friend having a red jewel on its head.
Most of all his size was too big even for a shadow fiend.
As I started to run while looking back at it in the process the beast had recovered.
My eyes met its gaze and I instantly recognised it.
It was the same beast that I had met years ago but it had grown not only in size but also strength.
I could sense the killing intent in his eyes.
With a low growl, it lunged forward, its claws outstretched trying to pierce me.
I realized I couldn't outmanoeuvre the creature and turned to face it.
I knew I had to buy time, to create an opening for me to slip away.
