Frith felt his limbs stretch as he strode forward, excitement would run through his form, electricity almost. Far too long had passed since he'd had a real sparring partner. The trees were certainly dismal opponents at best. Now he had a completely indescribable partner, she was massive (even taller than Aslan) and her fur was impressive with its ash and flame coloration. He'd feel himself smiling brightly as he turned to face her, there were no other combatants close to them and he could see that there would be no dangerous obstructions. He felt a challenge approaching him, winning would take a lot more quickness and cunning to defeat Amachi. Frith was ready though, already adrenaline was rushing through his veins.
As an added afterthought he'd challenge himself quietly. Pretending he had to win the whole spar to win the queen's hand. He'd chuckle to himself at the added incentive.

This place was full of strangers for sure, Amachi wasn't entirely certain what came over her to do this. She wasn't even one for fighting much, perhaps it was her need to interact with other wolves. It had been so long, that she was starting to feel the hit of loneliness. As she suspected, he was shorter than her, much smaller. That also meant it would be easier for him to slip and slide out of her way. She had to think of this as some sort of exercise. As they moved away from the other wolves, he faced her uncomfortably moving away for a moment. Her nerves were probably clearly shown in her slightly tucked tail.
He seemed ready to go, without an introduction or anything? "Uhmm, I'm Amachi. It's a pleasure to meet you." her ears would flick before she let out a hefty sigh to the smaller male. She spread her limbs to stay even on the ground, splaying her toes out to keep balance in case he tried to slam her. She raised her hackles feeling her heart race faster. Knee's bending slightly and tail becoming level with her spine as her chest shivered a little trying to get herself calm. Her ears pinned to the back of her head and she narrowed her eyes, rolling her shoulders inward, afterward scrunching up her scruff to avoid any holds. Having her stomach and abdomen muscles tightening. Lowering her head to tuck her chin near her chest.
The spar would start nowhere near where he expected. He'd assumed after divvying out the names and partners of the spars the woman would have already assumed his name, while he had learned hers already she still thought it appropriate to introduce herself. Frith would take the time to try and circle around teh tall woman, knowing he probably wouldn't have much luck against her front half. He wondered if she'd notice hat he was doing. He would nod in acceptance of her introduction, shifting himself easily into a fighters stance. Knees bent and his stance widened eyes narrowed as his ears fell to his skull. Hackles would raise as he aligned his tail with his spine, head lowering as he tucked his chin and rolled his shoulders forward. Frith didn't expect to be the one to attack first, he'd pull back his lips from his teeth, opening his jaws to show them off better. Amachi would do no more than ready her defenses as he slipped around her.
Frith would finally attempt to move towards her, wanting to aim towards her hind right hip. He would put as much force as a two stride leap could give him. Aiming the sharp point of his right shoulder at her hind right knee he'd aim to blow out the kneecap. wanting to hit right where the joint all came together. He'd (at the same time) want to use the foot at the bottom of said shoulder (right front paw) to stomp on her right back paw. While he opened his jaws tilted his head slightly to the left and aimed his top jaws at the left side of her spinal chord his bottom jaws at the left side he'd aim to hit right above her hips. Frith was eager to latch on on, bite down, and make her forget about the fight as she dealt with the severity of the wound.
Frith v Amachi round 1 of 2 (can we do two rounds? cause quick festival spars/easier judging)
Of course her eyes would keep locked on the male, so naturally her body shifted slightly to him. She didn't know what he was up to, but she didn't need to know as she only focused mainly on him. With her defenses set, she prepared herself for his attack. Frith would immediately try to go lower than she his right shoulder jutting out in an aim for her right back leg. With her weight and height, the woman would attempt to rotate on her knee's stepping to her left side attempting to get them in a position to where his head was near her rump. As his shoulder missed it's mark Amachi kept her ears pinned to the back of her head. Toes splayed out into the dirt as she let out a stiffed growl her shoulders rolled inward trying to protect her weight. His teeth spread and latched onto near the base of her tail. The pain that shot through her was intense as his head shook back and forth. Physically in pain her body burned up and reacted to the smaller male.
Amachi's jaws opened head swaying to the right of her body, attempting to swing her weight into him in a body slam. Her teeth would seek to latch onto the right side of his rump where his thigh was located and tug on him. Lifting her right hind leg she aimed to kick at his right front leg where the elbow joint connected in an attempt to dis-balance him. Her tail acting as a rudder in the process to keep her balance she kept her scruff scrunched into her body and abdomen muscles tightened. Her eyes narrowed at him. Her hackles kept raised.
1/2 for spar
Attack: Attempting to swing her right side of weight into him all while her head aimed for his right hind thigh and back right leg attempting to kick out his right front leg.
Defense: toes splayed, ears pinned, eyes narrowed, tail level with spine. muscles tightened, shoulders rolled inward, scruff scrunched hackles raised.
Injuries: Inch half bite wound at the base of tail, missing fur.
Her eyes remained on him as he shifted, a good move on her part though she didn't move her form half as much as he might have expected. With his launch in order she would react appropriately, shifting as he came near. While his shoulder completely missed her kneecap his stomp was quite effective. He wasn't sure if he broke anything but there was a satisfying snap upon contact. His jaws missed where he'd aimed but grabbing hold of her flesh was more than acceptable. He'd keep his defenses in place as he prepared for a counter, ears pulled against his skull, eyes narrowed, hackles raised, teeth exposed and weight redistributed to all four of his paws as he kept his knees bent and stance widened. He would give his best effort in keeping close to her, he wouldn't want her to gain any momentum against him.
Still the woman was eager to use her weight. Frith would use his tail as added balance behind him, still he'd feel the effects of her shove. She'd do little more than jostle him though, he wouldn't be pushed over, Amachi would even do her part in keeping him close. While her hips would push his shoulders from her the harsh bite he felt sink into his right lower haunch would keep his rear close to her. This movement would cause her kick to his elbow to miss completely.
He'd let himself be pulled by her, wanting to use the added momentum to draw even closer to her. Frith would attempt to curl back around on his backside, turning to his right to aim at attacking her once more. With jaws unhinged he'd aim to wrap them over her face and bite down. His lower jaws would aim for the cheek under her right eye while his top jaws sought purchase upon her right eye and forehead. As well he'd try to shove her back, wanting to drive his left shoulder into the rear of her right shoulder. Frith would aim to hit her between her ribcage and her lower shoulder blade.
