Akemi knew her words stung. She was no fool. But she wanted them to sting. She would scoff. “No, so you let Cypress fight for you. You agreed to that fight for him, when he was trying to talk Valentine down.” But the time to talk was over. Akemi would push past her irritation of the other woman. Perhaps even hate. Yes.... Akemi blamed Avalon for what had happened to Cypress at that fight. Then... To lose Arian... Perhaps she was placing more on Avalon than she deserved. Did it matter? Probably deep down. Akemi would spread her legs and toes, claws biting into the soil. Her limbs were bent, single eye narrowed, with her shoulders rolled forward. Head had lowered to align with her spine, weight evenly distributed across her legs. Neck would scrunch, her chin tipped forward to protect her throat. Her muscles were tense, her hackles were raised. She was ready. Akemi waited while the woman launched herself forward. She wanted her to get close, wanted her to underestimate her size. So many fools did. So many thought because she was small she was weak. But Akemi wasn’t. No. She’d prove that with Avalon. The moment the other was close enough Akemi would make her move. She’d attempt to slip up away from Avalon’s slam, side stepping to her own right, though it was not nearly enough. Moderate bruising would be the sacrifice as Akemi bunched her legs under her own body. The moment Avalon’s leg started to swing across her form Akemi would lunge forward. As Avalon had hoped Akemi would end up facing the other woman directly once again, but Akemi had hoped for as much. She would attempt to leap up and forward, to smash her head into the woman’s throat with enough force to hopefully cripple her at least a few moments. In additional to Avalon’s attacks Akemi would feel a bite upon the middle of her back. The bite was not enough to gain a hold, but moderate enough to draw blood and cause some punctures a quarter inch deep. Akemi would brace herself through the pain. Even with the slight tearing as long as she kept moving it would be alright. Hoping to gain some sort of leverage with her slam Akemi would also seek to drop her right foreleg with weight thrown forward into the limb down upon Avalon’s left forepaw. With any luck she could break the two inside toes {her main target} and perhaps even cause some bruising. In addition to her headbutt Akemi would also attempt to angle her head slightly towards her own right, Avalon’s left, to snap at the woman’s left foreleg’s armpit with the hope of gaining a hold to cause some additional damage.
