[@KuramaaaZ] Gus was no stranger to combat. He knew what could be done if his opponent got an edge over him. He knew what kind of damage a guy like Vlad could inflict if Gus lost sight of him. Momentary advantage would cost him every single time. The red hue on his arms had spread to every inch of his body as he amplified his already powerful frame. Rather than avoid the flames, Gus wont on the offensive with an explosive charge forward with left shoulder leading him into the attack, his left arm sweeping out in front of him dispersing the screen of flames. His whole body twisted to his right side as he took a step forward and lunged, putting his considerable weight into a crushing haymaker. Sheer force had the wind whistle while his fist punched out at Vlads form. But it wasn't the end of the assault. Vlad was a nimble fighter, capable of fast reactions and fast hard hitting strikes. That much you could tell at a glance. Following the punch Gus took a strong step forward and stomped on the ground while launching his right shoulder again at the boy. Despite the effort, it was unlikely he would hit the boy with either. So Gus prepared himself to accept the return blow if he dodged, and would retaliate.
