His opponent utilized his different positioning to avoid the blow that could have wrecked his midsection. Perhaps it was the smartest thing for him to have done at the time, because Tre'Yan would have followed up with any number of successive blows. His momentum brought him around, as his opponent escaped backwards, but left himself open.

Trained eyes fell on the body of the man, and Tre'Yan took off, he closed the gap almost immediately, getting his guard back up in case of any attacks. It was time to put his training to the test.

He pretended to shoot his arm forward, using his right shoulder to rotate, as though he were aiming to get through the upper guard and land a head shot, but that was just his feint. He was banking on his opponent seeing the shot and taking proper measures to defend against it. The real blow came but a moment later, for almost as soon as the feint began, it ended, while his upper body quick jerk left, and a vicious hook aimed to slam into the side of his torso. There were lots of organs on that side, but the well trained combatant in fisticuffs was aiming primarily at the spleen, assuming this wasn't someone whose organs were different from a normal person. A shot like that could cripple a man if hit hard enough.
