A/N: This chapter is a lil confusing, so here's a key: Owen's thoughts-normal/bold. 3pov narration- ittalic/underline. This is a very different format so hopefully it makes sense. Also, go watch the og vid for sure! This is my take on it, all I added was the poem (credits to GhostFox_ for the transcription) and the thoughts going through Owen's mind.

"We prepare in war in peace,
So that we are not caught unaware
For battle is a common thing
That we like to think is rare.
Ill thoughts drip through our minds
Like blood droplets on a sheet
Until men cry for their loved ones
Who lie dead in the streets.
So that in the future we may cheer
For the glory of our conquests
For the bravery in our hearts
Thanking the gods that we are blessed.
So that our lives are not in vain
Carried forth through the sonnets
Of the day our mothers said,
'Come home with a shield or upon it.'
Til' our boots squeeze out the blood
Of the soil underneath
Til' we've satiated the appetite
Of the one we call the beast.
Til' we forget we bore arms
And the violence begins to cease
So we march back unto our homes
To prepare for war in peace."

"We didn't come here looking for Apo, did we.
I think you know exactly where he left."

It really was a fighter.
Not a cheater like him
And the fight began.
Krow punched Owen in the face as hard as it could as he kicked it in the chest.
Hmm. Not bad.
It drew a knife.
Two can play at that game.
Knife twirling, it lunged at Owen, trying to stab him in the head, but he ducked out of the way and hit Krow in the head with the hilt of his sword.
Hah, this is going to be fun.
Owen swung at full force, but his momentum spun him around and left a moment of weakness and blindness to his enemy's position. Krow kicked and nearly disarmed him, but Owen caught his sword at the last minute.
It really is strong. No more playing around, then. Sad. This was just getting to be enjoyable.
He attacked, but Krow blocked it and backed away.
Hm. I didn't expect him to be so cow-
Pain.
He'd just caught a glimpse of the knife before-
That was stupid. I-
-shouldnt have let his guard down.
The blade stabbing deep in his shoulder reminded him of that.
Krow retrieved its weapon.
Ha.
Ha ha.
Hahaha.
No.
He attacked.
A swift cut and-
Blood. Krow's knife arm was gone.
Well. Might as well make it a fair fight. I want to see this one suffer.
He dropped his sword and landed some blows while Krow was in shock; until it grabbed for his face.
What was left of Owen's eye was gone, not that it mattered. Other than the pain.
I
Want
To
See
It
Suffer.
He lunged.
Bang. Bang. Bang. Bzzt. Bang. Bang.
The sound of skull meeting hard stone. This wasn't a fight anymore. Owen no longer wanted to see its corpse. He wanted to see Krows look of fear and agony as it slowly came to terms with the fact that its death was going to be niiice and slow.
Horns. A demon's most defining feature.
One gone.
And a body tossed aside into the water like the trash <Owen//I> <thought//know> it was.
