Actually scratch that, now Gandalf! Now!

Quick!

Before the Croc can react I rear back and chomp down on its leg once again, trying to inflict some damage and drag the creature off its feet.

As I prepare to bite, something shocking occurs!

My mandibles begin to glow faintly and I can feel a new strength building within them. Is this my new skill?! Some sort of active attack?! Finally!

When I bite down with all my power the feeling of crunching scales reverberates through my jaws. This bite is so much more powerful!

The success of my strike has shocked me, causing me to pause momentarily and the Croc leaps at this chance!

Sacrificing its own balance it turns and falls, swinging out with its tail and catching me a solid blow across my body!

BAM!

The impact sends me flying three meters! Once again pain explodes in my side but I push it away. I cannot lose this fight, I will not lose this fight!

I’ve taken a fair bit of damage from that impact, my carapace has been cracked in a few places and I think one of legs may be broken.

As I steadily pull myself to my feet I check my status, yep, HP has been cut in half!

The Croc must be suffering just as much. This is the final showdown!

Indeed my opponent is struggling hard. Suffering continuous damage from my earlier acid attacks, not to mention the internal damage from the acid to the mouth, and now my new crushing bite has caused a severe wound to its leg. As I watch the Croc is attempting to get back onto its feet, I won’t let it!

One leg dragging uselessly behind me I stumble forward to pressure the foe, lunging and darting at it, not letting it relax and stand. The Croc has a newfound fear of my mandibles, not willing to let me get a good bite in it keeps swiping with claws and snapping its jaws, preventing it from standing up.

Time is on my side in this battle, as long as I stay out of reach I’ll be able to outlast it.

The Croc knows this too however, rolling and twisting it flails out with its tail one more time, the long appendage whipping out with lightning speed!

JUMP!

With only five functional legs I leap as high as I can and pull my legs tightly under my body. Missing by millimeters the tail brushes the air beneath me, the incredible momentum of the strike throwing the Croc onto its face.

Chance!
