The Alpha charged again, and Alister met it head-on. He ducked under its swipe, slashing at its belly with all his strength. Blood gushed out from the wound. The claws bit deep, and the wolf yelped, staggering. Alister pressed the attack, landing blow after blow.
The debris around them exploded under the sheer strength as their battle intensified. Alister leaped from one crumbling structure to another, using the terrain to keep the Alpha off balance. He landed a powerful kick to its side, sending it crashing through a wall.
The Alpha rose, blood dripping from its wounds, but its eyes were still full of fight. It howled, the sound echoing through the wilderness. Alister braced himself, his gauntlets ready.
The final clash was a blur of motion. The Alpha's attacks were a whirlwind of claws and teeth, each strike a potential death blow. Alister moved with everything he had, his body a blur as he dodged and countered. He felt a claw slash across his arm, the pain sharp.
