Whole Lotta Gore

"RAAAGH!" The tigers roared

I thought tigers were solitary animals but I guess these new tigers are ultra pack hunters. They pulled up 15 deep, all blood red, all with menacing gazes.

They circled and all got ready to pounce. Now that they weren't attacking immediately, it was clear that these tigers are a different beast than those from Old Earth.

Shoulder to paw they were 4-5 feet tall. That along with their slender red coat made it look like a huge cat bathed in tomato sauce. Their teeth were large with some of them having teeth bursting out of their mouths. It was almost as long as a saber tooth tiger but only three inches long

"Hey so how do you want to do this" Fanalis said while edging closer to me

We moved back to back facing the super-pack of blood tigers.

"Kill all the tigers I guess" I shrugged

"Obviously, but don't you want the skill exp from killing these exp bags?"

"Uhh yeah, not really, I'll just buff you and have you deal with them. I don't have my weapon and you seem to enjoy kicking their heads off." I replied

" Oh, so I guess placing you at number 3 was a really rough estimate of your power? How will you buff me I presume?"

"Just do what you normally do but I will make you faster. You can handle a 10% increase, right?!" I smirked

"Of course, just watch me" she replied while getting into a fighting stance

I genuinely wanted to see what would happen if I added more oomph to her kicks. Weirdly i can sense or estimate how much force she puts into the ground. If my estimation is correct and I add a ten percent increase. I think she would be able to pop them.

I inwardly shuddered

The conversation lasted 15 seconds before the first brave tiger pounced at me.

It was stealthy and tried to hide within its brethren before it jumped out and tried to slash me with its steak knife claws.

pat pat pat POP

Fanalis took a couple of strides toward the tiger before kicking the tiger against its chest. Jumping towards me in mid-air worked against it as Fanalis' kick sounded like it broke the tiger's ribs and popped its lungs.

The cat dropped like a bag of rocks. It seemed like it tried breathing but it was like filling up a balloon with a hole. Its body didn't even move just shake slightly before it stopped completely

Another tiger jumped out in its place ready to take on the killer that was massacring its pack.

"WAITING FOR THAT COOL BUFF YOU PROMISED!" Fanalis shouted while striding to another tiger

When she ran, it seemed like her right foot was most dominant, so while she jumped for a high kick, I added extra velocity and force to her jump.

It almost looked like she bounced off a trampoline, I thought it would be jarring to go so fast so quickly but she was able to turn a flying right foot high kick, into a flying left foot hook kick...in mid-air! How was she only number 12?!

I know I'm decent but how can a regular person counteract G's of force and air resistance within milliseconds and still smash a tiger's face in?!

While I was staring in awe, another tiger leaped at me. There was another tiger behind it ready to double-team me. I guess they were gonna attack the weak link, seeing as Fanalis was kicking their heads off.

It jumped at me, claw first like I was the last chicken in the coop. I first wanted to run and dodge it because I had no weapon but then I had an idea.

The tiger clawed at my face, saturating my body with KE, I dodged. Its claws, inches from my face, I still felt no fear or worry. I sidestepped to its right shoulder. It landed on the ground, peeved after not getting its prey, it swiped again with its right then left paw. I dodged both swipes until its head was smashed onto the ground. Fanalis landed on top of the tiger. Her feet were bloody and she looked at me and smiled

"You're welcome" she laughed

A second tiger jumped for a supposed easy kill while Fanalis was distracted with her kill. Wanting my own anime kill, I waited till the tiger left the ground before grabbing its arm. Then saturating my arm with an unnecessary amount of KE, I yanked its arm off its body. It took more KE than I expected but I just siphoned it from a tiger prowling 10 ft away from the fight.

The blood didn't gush out of the arm until a second later. Even then it blended perfectly with its coat. The tiger stared incredulously at its missing limb. It fell over in shock.

"I finally got a weapon, YOU'RE welcome" I smirked
