The fight grew more and more intense.
Jamal, intoxicated not only by alcohol, but also by rage, struck blow after blow.
The stranger dodged, using his incredible agility, but it was difficult to fight with one hand against an armed opponent.
At one point, Jamal lunged forward, aiming the knife at his opponent’s stomach.
The stranger grabbed his arm, and they grappled for a moment before collapsing to the ground.
Shanaya heard a muffled cry of pain, but in the semi-darkness, she couldn’t tell which of them was injured.
When they got back up, Shanaya saw that the knife was now in the stranger’s hand.
Jamal seemed to realize that the situation had changed in his favor and tried to run away.
The stranger caught up with him in a few jumps.
What happened next happened so fast that Shanaya barely had time to realize it.
The stranger delivered a single precise stab with the knife.
