The Beast Within

E. L. Frazier

The Pitbull, aka Pernell Darby, is no stranger to the cage. Once a troubled youth who spent time in jail due to some run-ins with the law, he set out to be a professional fighter and to make a better name for himself. His plan worked at first. He found a trainer, Faces, a man who had a troubled pass for a different reason, and the two did everything in their power to propel Pernell to the of the game. The Pitbull make it all the way to the championship fight and won.

Unfortunately, that was also when his problems started. The same night he took the championship belt, Pernell was involved in a tragic car crash, breaking multiple bones and destroying his limbs. Pernell was told he'd never walk again, much less fight. Everyone knows, however, you can take the dog out of the fight, but you can't take the fight out of the dog.

Desperate for answers, Pernell stumbles across a website for a secret laboratory run by Dr. Jasper McCall. McCall claims he can help Pernell walk again due to a secret he created. Pernell is all ears, so he agrees to participate in the doctor's experiment.

Things take a dangerous and deadly turn when Pernell learns that Dr. McCall turned him into more than a fighter. He turned him into a beast. Can Pernell tame the beast within?

Or will he succumb to Dr. McCall's evil plan?
