"Oh my goodness!! Such monstrosity." Gasping with his hand hacking on his chest, the Grand Duke and the other Cyclitharans scoffed and gagged in disgust at the sight of blood and other body excrements pouring from the beast’s body like a fountain. Blood dropped to the dusty field in great volumes with the beast running around in a pained rampage. Because of its butchered body part, the beast wailed, roared, and shrieked with its lower body panging in pain. It started to run around aimlessly while slamming its body onto the walls. The foundations of the Colosseum began to shake and rumble, the loose pieces of metal, brick, and debris broke apart and fell with dust rising and setting inside the amphitheaters.

Just then, an interesting turn of events occurred, one that even made the Grand Duke hold his breath. While roaring and jumping around in pain, the beast angrily took note of its jewels and then it spotted the being responsible for destroying its manhood. The creature’s eyes, bloodshot red, remained glued to the red being standing in the pool of its blood. The stinging pulsating sensation in its undercarriage, added to the discomfort that came with it, added to its rage. Now, seeing this red thing standing in its blood with crescent eyes staring at it ticked the beast off. It was its last straw. Quickly raising its head, the giant beast raised the flaps of skin attached to its neck and began to shake them violently. Its neck twisted and turned beyond thirty degrees, its flaps generating much wind and dust in the process. Before Cherry could even process what was happening, she found herself standing in the midst of a dust storm of sorts with hundreds of thousands of tiny dust particles, debris, bones, and pieces of old armor flying in her general direction. The Crimson Knight quickly gathered all the blood she could with all her might which, coming as a shock to her, was extremely easy. The volumes of blood she stood on were enough to fill three Olympic swimming pools and would normally drain her of a quarter of her strength if she tried to lift it all up. However, her Crimson Knight form came with a Blood Strength boost which made it excruciatingly easy for her to lift so much with such little strength. She thought to herself while creating a thick dome of blood to protect her body. Once it started to settle, the young woman and beast locked eyes, followed by the creature running at her at full speed. The beast, as mentioned earlier, was demonically fast for a creature its size and even though the Crimson Knight had seen it before, it hadn’t sunk into her mind yet. For that reason, the young woman hadn’t prepared herself immediately which left her vulnerable to a headbutt from the beast’s thick skull-like helmet on her blood dome. The dome snapped immediately and the same force that shattered it blew Cherry away like an ant being blown away by one mighty puff of wind. The Crimson Knight quickly formed tendrils on her back and shot them into the ground, causing her fall to come to a complete halt. Once settled, she stretched both her hands and began to pull all the blood towards her before the beast got any closer. Again, the creature’s speed outmatched the young woman’s expectation which halted her from gathering all she needed. Thankfully, Cherry also had speed that rivaled that of the beast and even though she couldn’t control it well enough to run circles around the creature, it was enough to enable her to move away before any harm befell her. ’This thing’s too quick. It won’t let me gather as much blood as I need.’ With all that she had, the Crimson Knight came to a daring decision, one that would definitely injure the beast if executed properly or kill her if she made just one mistake. Once again, the Crimson Knight and the frilled lizard-like beast were at a distance from each other. Both were ready to charge and strike at each other, one more than the other. Cherry, having a considerate amount of blood with her, waited patiently as the beast came charging at her at full speed. Quickly, the Crimson Knight hardened all the blood into a blood spike and shot it at the base of the creature’s neck, piercing through one of its many flaps. The blood spike went through and even managed to puncture the creature’s neck but it wasn’t deep enough to be considered lethal. Nonetheless, it worked and the result was an even further agitated and wounded beast. ’It worked?’ Cherry gasped, her eyes opened wide showing the disbelief and shock she bared. She didn’t expect the attack to work but somehow it did and because of that, another wound was made on the creature. But it still wasn’t enough. The Crimson Knight needed a good amount of wounds on the beast’s body before she could drain it of all its blood but she needed to act quickly. A beast of its size and weight had a somewhat decent regenerative ability, meaning that any wound it had would coagulate almost instantly. Now again, Cherry attempted to run back to her pool of blood instead of bringing it towards her. Since the beast made it next to impossible for her to draw blood to herself, she ran as quickly as she could towards it, and close enough, she made it. The thick blood seeping from its severed jewels was enough to cause another wound on the creature but the Crimson Knight was looking for a critical spot to hit. Running along the beast’s sheath was a bulging, pulsating vein that screamed at Cherry to pop it. Seeing this, the Crimson Knight slit her wrists and infused her blood into that of the beast. Having acquired enough, she lifted a great volume of blood over her head and began to run. The beast did the same, both entities moving at each other incredibly. Cherry grinned, her heart racing with excitement with intense anticipation coursing through her body. With one mighty swing of her arms, the Crimson Knight readied herself to attack....but so did the beast. In a twist of events, the beast turned its backside toward Cherry, lifted its gigantic tail, and whacked the wind out of her lungs, sending her body crashing into the steel walls of the Colosseum. "Is she...is she...dead?"
