Out of rhythm

He stood unready

With his knees weak 

His arms were heavy 

There was blood all over 

his clothes already 

But he still had the energy 

to throw a punch 

a barrage of them

maybe just a bunch 

but something wasn't right 

it was just a hunch 

He could evade properly 

In a weak state, 

but when he was strong, 

his reflexes came a bit late 

There was no logical answer 

for him to intake 

and the more he thought of it 

the more he couldn't think straight 

Well leave that aside 

and throw a bolt 

of lightning 

about a thousand volts 

to your opponent 

and give him a jolt,

and make him hop around 

like a little colt

that's how things were 

supposed to have gone 

but Shiro tried 

and couldn't get it done 

the armored man threw it back,

and it dawned 

on Shiro that 

a real fight was on.

Very soon after 

there was no sign 

of laughter, 

just the sound 

of clash and clatter,

and a one sided fight 

was the matter 

but Shiro wasn't waiting 

to receive batter

so he dodged to the side 

and did a counter 

It was a good one 

EXCEPT,

what happened next

he didn't expect 

his counter was blocked 

and it was all reset 

to where his opponent's attack 

was set 

to hit his chest 

a second time yet 

Shiro thought of the punch

that had him done 

it felt like a thousand 

though it was one 

his ability to move 

was already gone, 

he tried to gather strength 

but there was none 

He tried to speak 

but uttered no word 

it was then that 

the armored man drew his sword 

It could be seen that the battle was over, and that Shiro had lost. He couldn't move any part of his body, he just laid there as the armored man walked slowly towards him, dragging his sword on the ground. 

Shiro laid there listening to the clanking sounds the sword made as it dragged along the floor. 

"Ah..." "ah..." "ah..." "ah" he constantly uttered, as if he was trying to say something, but it was already too late. Shiro watched as the sword came down on him; straight to his heart and twisting more than once. 

His entire body had run cold, he could no longer feel his heartbeat (of course he couldn't feel it, anyone who feels a beat after all that twisting should be scared of himself ) and his vision was getting hazy.

"So this is death" Shiro thought not minding what was going on. 

Before everything turned completely dark, Shiro heard a loud voice yell "Aka'nchawa" then he saw a bright light that illuminated his entire field of vision, and felt himself getting picked up. Shiro couldn't help but wish, that his saviour should have come earlier.
