As the fifth round began, Fen moved forward without his trademark arrogant smirk or cruel tendencies. He now fought to best Tarrow at all costs as he focused his initial attacks on the mouse’s bruised abs. This worked to some degree of success as the pain was beginning to open Tarrow up. Every time the mouse made an effort to guard his body, he received a rapid combination to his face.

His other eye was soon going to be beaten closed if this kept going. In an act of desperation, he thrusts himself forward with a headbutt. He succeeds as Fen shouts and clutches his broken nose. As Fen comes back to his senses he realizes that Tarrow has grasped on tight with a clinch. Tarrow then batters his torso with a few quick knees. Fen fights to force himself away from Tarrow with a few weakened swings.

It doesn’t help in the slightest as Tarrow remains attached to him, pummeling his body. The clinch only loosens as Tarrow frees up an arm to brutally bash Fen’s torso some more. This constant attack continues until Fen finally screams out in pain. Tarrow let’s go from exhaustion as Fen hits the mat and starts coughing up a bit of blood. Fen barely gets up seven seconds later with an enraged expression.

Tarrow looks at his damage in concern as he says “Are you sure, you want to keep at it?”. Fen shouts back “I’m not leaving until you’re out cold!” Tarrow sighs as he gets ready to continue the fight. Before another punch can be thrown, the bell rings. Fen heads back to his corner nearly ready to give in to rage…
