The Red Bully (2)

The gym hall was silent. Only the sound of Absalom and Curtis's blows could be heard. Sometimes as Jr whistled through the air, many times as it battered his face and stomach. 

Absalom was far leading in hit points but Curtis refused to give up. Every time he got up, a wide smile spread across Absalom's face. All he just wanted to do was break him. 

It reminded him of when they were training with Raith under Volmak, he would beat the shit out of Raith all in the name of training. 

Only to come to earth and discover that the bastard was a stronger hunter. 

After the fight in Therut, Absalom saw a lot of changes to his abilities. Although his skills were sealed back the moment he came to earth and he had to spend close to a month in the hospital, healing. The fight with the damned angel gave him a scope of experience that he never would have gotten somewhere.
