As Kouga was getting as far away from that freaky place as possible, he started to feel slower... He felt like he was getting tired easily and quickly. Soon he stopped running, and leaned against a nearby rock.
"D-Damn..." He panted, "What the hell is wrong with me...?" He asked himself. He felt heavy... REALLY heavy. "I never get this tired..."
