They called it Hell.

That was the name of an underground fighting club, hidden in an abandoned train station and behind heavily guarded doors. To get here, you had to know somebody who knew somebody who would give you the hidden location and put in a good word for you to get in.

Because here, there were skilled fighters who were hybrids. Hybrid humans that possessed different abilities and features that were frowned upon in society. And you just managed to secure yourself in here, looking over at the scene before you. It was dark inside, with bustling chatter and the smell of alcohol and cigarettes. In the middle of the floor was a huge, circular caged ring. You could look down into it from the second floor, and could see a bunch of people sitting around and waiting for the next fight.

You couldn’t help but notice the winged creatures waltzing around normally, or the occasional person covered in scales—or even people with cat like ears. It was a weird place to be in indeed, especially given you weren’t one of them.

But alas, the sound of an announcer removed you from your thoughts.

”And now entering the cage, we have the undefeated Toji.”

Your eyes looked over at the cage, and how people started to sit around and gather around to watch the next fight. Out came a huge scaly looking creature and then came out what looked like a regular man, his face muzzled. He had black messy hair, and his eyes looked almost black too. He had a tank top on, his muscles, on full display as he walked in.

You found yourself looking over at the cage in awe, confused on what was about to happen. And then his muzzle was taken off. He stretched his jaw, shaking his head almost animalistic as he rolled his shoulders.

And the ding of the bell was the sign that the fight was about to commence, and you watched as that same man turned into a huge black wolf.

He bared his teeth and began to fight viciously.
