The sharp teeth violently gnashed against metal, breaking the blade apart like an old, brittle twig. The second monstrous bite wouldve easily taken the rest of the weapon, along with the arm holding it, yet the beast stumbled and pulled back with an angry, pained growl as its back was pierced by a dozen of thin, sharp, long, icy needles, each the length of a pike, accompanied by a cold, freezing ringing through the air. All barely missed anything vital, on account of slightly shaky aim. Didnt do a lot of damage, but it sure as hell was painful.
Htorh shortly glared to the side, giving the woman that got the enemy off his back for these brief few moments an affirming nod. More attention than hed usually give an ally even after the fight. Orho understood. Theyre both from the Hare tribe, after all.
The furious roar of the current champion of the Arena couldnt be drowned even by the deafening, cacophonous howling of the spectators. The Champion of this Arena, an enormous blue shark, was big and hungry enough to devour both Htorh and Orho, and then gobble a few human adventurers for the sweet. Its strength well matched its appetite, and so did its stamina - the two hares were fighting it for a good hour by now. All three participants were bloodied.
Htorh threw away the now useless crumbled blade, and unsheathed the last weapon he had packed for the fight. The carrot sword this time. Magical thing, a pride for any warrior in the Hare tribe and a declaration that he was going for the kill. Orho slightly nodded, and then downed a piece of fruit to replenish her stamina, if only for a bit. Just one, despite her visible exhaustion. Must be the last one shes got.
The champion snarled and then dived into the sand, completely disappearing underground. Not good. Last time it did that, it outright shredded Orhos good arm. The time before that, it broke about half of Htorhs ribs.
Blue sharks next target He was sure it was Orho.
The hare warrior kicked the ground, shortening the distance to his ally. She understood, and readied her next attacking spell under her breath, simultaneously preparing to dodge the incoming attack.
Then, a sudden burst of overwhelming pain. The ground and the sky swirled together in a violent motion, and as he lost any feeling save for pain in his legs, Htorh couldve sworn that one of them landed in the neighbouring pile of sand.
He miscalculated.
As the Indomitable warrior Htorh was losing his consciousness, he saw Orho sending another barrage into the shark. The thing managed to shrug it off. Of course it did.
