The space closed rapidly with constantly shifting and hungry bodies, all hell bent on killing them both. Two charged Blizzard from both sides at once. It was nothing he hadn't encountered before, but he didn't expect one to leap up from the grass just below him. It screamed in his face as if to mock what he looked over. Claws from its feet and paws drove deep into his flesh and knocked him off balance.

He couldn't feel pain no matter how badly they tried, but it didn't mean he couldn't fall to wounds.

He slammed right into the other as it came up to his side. It made a choking sound that resembled laughter as it began to tear and rip at his side and stomach with its long jagged talons.

Blizzard snarled and let loose a massive surge of electricity that coursed through his body that struck the two monsters hard. Both went up in flames in an instant and dropped back, churning for a short moment before falling silent.

He was breathing hard, rapidly becoming drained of his strength and energy. Just as he began to recover a creature leaped for him, the hostile that he had forgotten about from just a second ago.

He reacted as best he could, but found it wasn't enough. The glow in his paws was gone, and the last of his electrical potency was spent with that last assault.

In mid air, an invisible force struck the hostile right in the head, knocking it out of the way before it could hit the Alpha. Blizzard stared at the spectacle as it played out right in front of his eyes. Confusion set in and he took a quick look around to see what it was. It wasn't until he turned his vision around, over looking Bree to see a tall Terveta standing on the hill far in the distance.

He grinned tiredly, recognizing the shape and stance of the lone soldier. A roar came from his front, making him turn to face the hostile that came running right at him, not bothering to leap or slow down.

The ground began to violently shake from an unknown epicenter. Then a giant beast appeared, standing on all four paws, it resembled a giant gray wolf the size of a house, except it had three heads and five tails.

It intercepted the hostile before it came too close and bit down into its chest with the center head while the other two growled victoriously. The creature writhed between the two jaws, its claws flashing at a blurring speed to cut into the muzzle. The wolf tossed the body into the air while it stilled moved around and grabbed it strongly with two heads.

The knife-sized teeth dug into the stone-like body and pulled it in half with a great rip. Several hostiles turned their attention to the newly arrived Terveta and began to gang up on it from all sides, but it had an ally with it.

It moved through the grass like a long twisting snake with lightning speed before it struck. A hostile leaped for the three-headed lupine but something shot out of the ground and impaled it through the neck, completely severing it from its body.

It was silver in color but the way it moved suggested its consistency was a liquid. The metal-looking fluid began to shift and thicken. It took on the shape of an arm with the fingers out and held together like a fan.

The rest of the body quickly molded into a golden retriever but still kept its constantly shifting texture. It smiled at the blue husky and then turned to face a hostile that was coming right at it. The Terveta didn't move; instead long thin spikes extended out from its body at the last second, letting the creature impale itself to death.

Blizzard was thankful for the Beta and Gamma of Delta squad to come to their aid. Bullets progressively poured into the area as well, taking down hostiles left and right from the great expanse away that Mathew was aiming from.

It wasn't long until Seth joined in, using his ability of speed to reach them in seconds to break down the advancing monsters that continued to attack the couple.

He shifted powerful vortexes of wind between his paws and then pressed them down until they became a spinning disk. He whipped at the creatures, cutting through limbs and bodies with partial ease.
