Cane was stuffing his face with human flesh. "This is just too good!" he shouted. He continued eating without delay.

"Those mages didn't really put up much of a fight," said Thomas.

"Yeah, Cane took 'em down easy," said Hayley.

"So good!" Cane's eyes turned to slits, fur grew off of his body and his stature increased. "Need more!" His fingernails elongated into claws, and his teeth sharpened. "More!" He lunged at Hayley and Thomas.

"What is that?" said Tyson, dodging one of Cane's attacks. Cane roared at Tyson, and blasted a beam from his mouth. "Titanium Wall!" Tyson made a wall in front of him. It held for a few seconds, blocking the beam, but it bore a hole through the wall striking Tyson and he flew backwards. Tyson slowly got back to his feet. "Mercury River!" Tyson blasted forth the large torrent of quicksilver, but Cane deeply inhaled, and drank it all. Cane roared once again. Titanium covered his hand. He charged Tyson at blinding speeds, delivering a powerful blow to his face, breaking his jaw. "He copied my magic," Tyson murmured. He couldn't move, out of a combination of fatigue and fear. Cane walked up to Tyson. He grabbed his arm and bit down on it. He tore it off and began chewing. Tyson could only scream in pain.

"Cane stop!" called Lincoln, having watched the whole battle from his cage.

Cane turned around, his eyes locked with Lincoln. He approached his cage, and ate it. He grabbed Lincoln by the neck.

"This... Isn't... You."

The fur on Cane fell off. His claws shrunk back to fingernail length, and his size went back to normal.

"Sorry," said Cane. "I was afraid I would lose control."

The walls moved revealing another way to go.
