While Peter was enjoying his night, Frank kept himself busy as usual.

Frank had been tracking a high-level weapons dealer for the past few days. The target was highly protected, almost untouchable, surrounded by a small army of men.

But today, Frank had a chance.

As usual, he fought his way through the building on the outskirts of New York, eliminating all obstacles in his path. Few people were there; no cops dared enter this underworld. It was a place where those without money or status weren't welcome, where even a small cop wouldn't feel safe without backup, fearing they'd be killed, their bodies left for autopsy to confirm their line-of-duty death.

Unlike the gang members, Frank killed them without guilt. He didn't enjoy killing; he preferred peace. But sometimes, peace was too far away. He wouldn't complain or change his path. He took a grim satisfaction in seeing their blood spill, hearing these filth of the Earth plead for mercy.

After taking them down, Frank burned the building to the ground, ensuring no traces were left behind, and moved out with a new batch of weapons in his minivan. However, he had an unsettling feeling, as if someone was watching him. This was the sixth time this week. His honed senses told him this wasn't a regular lowlife. The question on his mind was, who and where?

Frank drove, alert and ready for a surprise attack. He avoided his base to keep its location hidden from this unknown presence. Instead, he took several detours. The drive lasted two hours before he finally stopped in front of an alleyway.

As he stepped out of the van, the feeling of being watched grew stronger. His eyes scanned the dark, narrow alley, every muscle in his body tense. Suddenly, a shadow moved at the far end. Frank drew his gun, ready to face whatever or whoever it was. The figure emerged from the shadows, tall and imposing, with a menacing presence.

He was wearing a brown jacket with fur around his neck, black shirt, and black pants, making him stand out in the alley. The moment Frank got a glimpse of the person, a shiver went through his spine, a rare sensation for the hardened Punisher.

"Castle," His deep voice echoed through the alley. "I've been waiting for this moment."

"Who the hell are you?" Frank raised his gun, preparing to shoot him down. "What do you want?"

"Kraven," The man replied, a wicked grin spreading across his face. "And you, Frank Castle, are the ultimate prey."

Before Frank could reply, Kraven pounced and leaped at him, disappearing into thin air as he seemed to fade, only leaving dust behind. His agility of a wild beast.

Frank fired his gun, but Kraven dodged with inhuman speed, closing the distance between them in a heartbeat. Kraven's fist connected with Frank's jaw, sending him sprawling to the ground. Frank rolled to his feet, pain searing through his body. He aimed his gun again, but Kraven knocked it out of his hand with a swift kick. With his opponent unarmed, Kraven took advantage of the opening, grabbing his opponent's leg. In a display of incredible strength, Kraven threw his foe in the air.

Frank groaned in pain as he collided with a brick wall, unable to prepare for the sudden attack. He dropped to the concrete like a stone, and just when he thought the fight had ended, he received a brutal blow from behind, slamming his face against the wall, and smashing the skin on his forehead and face. His right shoulder was dislocated.

Frank gritted his teeth and tried to rise up again, but that slam had sapped away his energy, he felt weaker than before, not that he could move anyway, the beating he took from Kraven left him bleeding and immobilized, it was as if he wasn't fighting a human but a beast. His opponent got speed, power, and techniques that made it impossible for him to counterattack. He expected it was because of some strange drug or a chemical he took that made him act this way. But right now, none of those questions mattered, only the wish of not dying, to find an opportunity, something that might change the result of this fight.

"Did I expect too much, Frank Castle?"

The mocking voice belonged to Kraven, standing right behind him, smiling sinisterly as Frank continued to resist and tried to get up.

"Or perhaps you are not what the rumors say? Maybe this hunt was indeed not worthy,"

That single word 'Hunt', was like a match that lit up Frank's raging fires. "What did you say?"

"That you will die like the animals, right here in this alley," Kraven kicked his stomach, sending him rolling across the ground until he crashed against a large metal pipe in a corner.

Frank spit a mouthful of blood as the agony shot through his stomach. That kick could be fatal, but for him, it only woke up his animal instinct to survive. It's been a while since he fought a bloody fight on the edge of life and death. The man before him isn't a normal human, but to Frank, it doesn't matter. He got a general idea about Kraven's power after taking that much beating. His way of fighting was unique, like a savage animal that hunted down its prey. Countering it without preparation and in his present condition is almost impossible. And running away is also impossible since he is fast enough to dodge bullets.

He looked around for things he could use as a weapon. Since guns are useless, he'll keep his other gun for the final blow, right now, his eyes fell on a metal rod, lying behind Kraven. A few glass shards and bricks.

The street light flickered...

"ARGGGG!" Frank slammed his fist on the ground as he stood up. He grabbed his dislocated right shoulder and popped it back into place with a sickening crunch, then he cracked his neck and fingers, before running toward Kraven.

"YES! THIS IS HOW IT SHOULD BE. THAT SOUL SHOULDN'T GO TO HELL EASILY," Kraven stood still, not even flinching a little while facing a charging Frank.

The alleyway became a battleground. Frank fought with everything he had, using his combat skills to counter Kraven's ferocity. But Kraven was relentless, his attacks precise and brutal. Blood flowed freely as the two men exchanged blows, each strike more savage than the last. Frank's body screamed in agony, but he refused to give up. He had faced worse and survived.

Kraven's claws raked across Frank's chest, tearing through his flesh. Frank gritted his teeth, ignoring the pain, and delivered a powerful punch to Kraven's face. Kraven staggered back, blood dripping from his nose, but his eyes burned with rage. "ARRRRRGGGG!!" He roared and charged at Frank again.

Frank sidestepped, grabbing a metal pipe from the ground and swinging it at Kraven's head. The pipe connected with a sickening crack, but Kraven barely flinched. He grabbed the pipe, and yanked it out of Frank's hands, easily, tossing it aside. Frank couldn't believe Kraven's strength.

"HAAAAA!!!!" With a roar, Kraven lifted Frank and slammed him into the wall.

Baaaam!

Gasping for breath, Frank kicked Kraven in the stomach, forcing him to release his grip. Frank dropped to the ground, grabbing a shard of broken glass. He slashed at Kraven's arm, drawing more blood. Kraven snarled and backhanded Frank, sending him crashing into a pile of trash.

Frank struggled to his feet, blood trickling down his face. He could feel his strength waning, his vision blurring, but he couldn't afford to lose. Not now. Not to Kraven. Summoning every ounce of his willpower, Frank launched himself at Kraven, tackling him to the ground. The two men rolled across the alley, a blur of fists and fury.

Kraven managed to get on top, his hands closing around Frank's throat. Frank's vision darkened as Kraven's grip tightened...
