The guilt that swam through Jakub's gut as he watched his friends blood drip lazily from his horn to the dry, dusty ground nauseated him. His attack had worked just as he had intended. It had been the first time he had used his horns on another living being, and they had performed perfectly. The idea of their strength made his head spin with doubt, throwing his balance off just as Aten began to back into him kicking. Jakub pulled his chin up, maneuvering his horns out of the way so he would not injure his friend any more than he already had.
In doing so, however, he left his face wide open for the solid impact of Aten's hooves. The blow caught him in the jaw, rattling his teeth and bringing stars to his vision. Jakub backed up with quick, wobbly steps, another blow came just below his eye socket. A crack was heard, and suddenly even the stars stopped shining.
His large form crumpled to the side, as if he was a puppet whose strings had snapped unexpectedly. He was out for only a moment before regaining consciousness, but when he came to only one eye would open while the other had swelled tightly shut.
@[Aten] I think this is the last post?
