Quest charged forward again, his movements a blur. He never stayed in one place for more than a second. Punch, move. Kick, move. He was relentless, his fists and legs flying at Garrett with terrifying precision. Each strike was faster than the last, each movement more unpredictable.
Garrett tried to keep up, blocking what he could, dodging when he had the chance, but Quest was everywhere. The kid moved like a predator, hunting his prey, his eyes cold and focused on the kill. Every punch felt like a sledgehammer, and every kick rattled Garrett to his core.
Within moments, Garrett was overwhelmed. He swung his rifle like a club, trying to create space, but Quest was already gone before the weapon could connect. Then, before Garrett could even react, a heavy punch landed squarely on his chest, sending him stumbling back. Quest followed up with a powerful kick, his leg connecting with Garrett's side.
The force of the blow sent Garrett crashing to the ground. He hit the pavement hard, pain shooting through his body as the wind was knocked from his lungs once again. He tried to push himself up, but Quest was already there.
Another punch came down, slamming into Garrett's shoulder, pinning him to the ground. Quest's movements were precise, calculated—there was no wasted energy, no hesitation. He had complete control over the fight, and Garrett knew it.
Breathing heavily, Garrett looked up at Quest, who stood over him like a shadow. The kid's face was unreadable, his dark eyes emotionless as he stared down at Garrett.
"You're slowing down," Quest said coldly, his voice barely above a whisper. It wasn't taunting, just a statement of fact. Garrett could see it in his eyes—Quest was already calculating the end of the fight.
Gritting his teeth, Garrett tried to roll away, but Quest's foot came down on his chest, holding him in place. He wasn't going anywhere. Quest had him. The raw power behind every move made it clear Garrett wasn't facing a normal human—this was something far beyond his reach.
Quest tilted his head slightly, as if considering whether to finish him off. His fist clenched again, ready to deliver the final blow.
Garrett's mind raced, knowing he had to act now, or this fight was over.
