This bastard had to have thought I was joking. I stretched my hands right there on the spot, my right hand first, then my left, then rolled my neck, then my legs.
Nature's first son was still glaring at what I was doing. Finally, I stood. The flames around me stilled, and the Emperor's Presence began to circle me. Slowly, the white flames gained red edges and began to look more menacing.
I stopped for a moment and stilled with them. It seemed that, right then, the beast finally recognized that its tricks had not worked on me. The bastard flinched, let out a deafening roar, and barreled towards me.
