Hadrian's claws glowed red, his breath harsh and ragged.
His eyes burned with fury as he lunged at Lucius, every step shaking the ground beneath him.

"Be happy that you managed to force me to use this move."
Lucius's eyes gleamed, his smirk never fading.

His back cracked as new limbs formed, armored plates overlapping, fusing beast and man.
His eyes turned blood red, glowing with raw energy.

His chest expanded, armored plates forming spikes.
His tail lashed the ground, each swing cracking the stone.
Lucius's grin widened.
"I see," he said, his voice steady. "Then let's do this too."
