"UUUUUURRAAAAAAAAHHHAUAUAUAU!" The battlecry that ripped its way from my throat wasn't something entirely human even before my armor further distorted it. Pavement cracked under my feet as I charged forward anima fully unfurled dragon wings beating around me.

Hookwolf met my charge, still expanding into more and more blades, limbs bulking out to the size of my torso by the time we bodily smashed into one another once more.

He smashed into me like seven and a half tons of moving steel, way more momentum then I could hope to match.

I didn't care.

"YOU THINK THAT'S ENOUGH!?!" I sank both claws into his guts and using that anchor point, flipped him up and over me, sending him crashing to the ground in a mess of blades.

He recovered instantly, lashing out with a vicious kick, but I just caught it again, letting the spinning blade and stabbing spears cut uselessly against my carapace as motes burned and I swung again, throwing him full bodied into the wall, before twisting around and lifting him clear off the ground as I spun him around into the other side of it as he lashed out with the other foot kicking me in the face hard enough for me to taste a flash of blood against my mouth.

"YOU THINK YOU'RE GETTING AWAY!?!"

Something gave as I yanked back a third time intending to send him clear through the battered clasping wall. With a screeching roar the leg ripped free and four and a half tons of pentalegged steel beast flew free.

I wasted no time lunging after him jumping clear into the air torn leg held aloft roaring in green flame, "I'LL KILL YOU!" I screamed smashing my improvised club down on the front of the Empire Cape hard enough to shatter it to fragmented hunks of metal, denting his face in.

"I'LL RIP YOUR SKIN OFF AND CRUCIFY YOU WITH YOUR OWN WRETCHED BLADES!"

The head folded down as two massive mandibles exploded out of his front shoulders focusing their entire lengths curving roaring drill points snapping out at me.

I charged right down their middle leaving me open as a spear shot forth from the center pushing me back as both came crashing in stabbing into my sides.

"GRRRRAAAAAAAAAHHHHHAUAAAAAH!!" my ribs cracked, more importantly I couldn't reach his face like this.

Motes surged again, and with a scream I ripped the spear in half slipping in under it and sliding in to sink my claw up into where it's new, beetle like face was on, stabbing up into where its brain should be,

"YOU THINK YOU CAN HIDE IN THIS TOY!?!"

A blade snapped loose from above swinging for my neck like a guillotine, my claw lashed out through its lower half ripping the tool free then burying it where I guessed his eyes might be.

Then mine flickered with green fire, and I knewwhere his fleshself was.

Another sound ripped it's way out of my throat as my motions became frantic, letting the pincers crash down on my waste as I ripped into its back after the meat and bone within. Another deeper sound ripping it's way out of my throat,

"UUUUUUAAAAAAAAAAAAAUAAAUAAAAAUAAAAA!"

Hookwolf realized what was happening, and twisted in place grinding his mandible shaped drills into my side as he tried to flip the front half of his entire body and take me with it.

My claw dug in, and touched at something soft and wet, my face smashed into the ground with fingers painted in blood.

My mouth twisted into a grin to wide for itself, ripping at the edge.

"Found You." I rasped.

Then fell into my own shadow, appearing directly above hookwolf driving down into him with my full weight both claws falling into the closing gap and ripping it wide open again

"UAAHAAAHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHAA!!!" my hand flashed around me each time ripping loose face sized hunks of steel, ducking down under a swinging arm, as I ripped after the retreating core.

"YOU CAN'T RUN! I FEEL YOUR BLOOD HOOKWOLF! I'LL RIP YOUR MEATSELF OUT OF YOUR TWISTED CORPSE AND-!!"

This time the leg got me, and I was battered back onto the ground, barely twisting out of the way of a two ton stomp.

"AAAAHAHAHAHA HA! FIGHT!" I roared out again twisting up again low to the ground, like a angry gorilla, "FIGHT! RUN!" I commanded, ripping a claw up through his side in pointless rage "SCREAM! DIE!"

"FREE YOUR HATE AND DROWN IN MINE!" I demanded twisting under his swing as I opened his chest, then dived down again.

Something in it's arm clunked as I caught a glimmer of red near its stomach region.

I swung for it immediately as he did in turn, claws parting steel, hungry to once more taste vulnerable flesh.

Then the pilebunker hit me.

There was a sudden pressure on my chest, then back, as thunder roared about me, then my side hit something and I spun, before hitting something hard and stopping.

Fucker just launched me through a wall.

I laughed again, before my rage surged up again, vision still glowing painfully green, "You Can't Stop Me."

Then before he had a chance to surge through the hole after me I charged once again.
