Vale didn't give up his assault, pushing and pushing, even when the sand obscurred his vision, and the spear-head found itself lodged in his jaw, dislocating it one one side. Vale took another step forward and flooded his sword with another burst of strength. Bruce's blade couldn't hold against his assault. Within moments, Vale's katana met the surface of Bruce's left collarbone, and began to dig into his flesh. Vale's tongue hung out eagerly as the smell of blood filled his nostrils, fresh and ready for the taking. His pupils dilated, and he opened the half of his jaw that was still attached, ready to bite into Bruce's neck the moment he got into range.

Meanwhile, he began to close his cage, lowering the amount of space Jenso had to move in.
