The Curse [Aby]

ooc:  Asena, you'll need to put the over all build in the "heavy, medium, etc." part.  You'll want a judge or staff member present when you make the edit so it doesn't disqualify you.  Also I don't want to have an indefinite default time but I'm cool with making it longer than usual.  Does 2 weeks work for you?  I'm also comfortable extending up to a month if you're gonna be busy.  Thanks!

How wicked these, How wicked these hours Pyralis waited patiently, taking deep breaths and focusing her mind for the bloodshed to come.  She was expecting a stranger and she blinked in surprise as her niece Aby faced off against her.  A mischievous grin graced Pyre's lips.  She didn't bother to speak, no words were really needed and judging from what she'd heard at the meeting the girl needed an opportunity to vent some steam, or a good beating, and a spar was the perfect chance for both.   The girl set her defenses and Pyralis moved to set her own.  Her skull and tail moved elegantly to align with her spine as her chin tucked.  She rolled her shoulders languidly forward, neck scrunching back to push fur, skin and fat over the vitals in her neck as her hackles stood on end making the behemoth seem even larger.  Spreading her limbs equidistant apart she distributed her weight evenly amongst her limbs, which coiled, lowering her center of gravity and preparing her to spring into action.  She'd give Aby the first move, eager to see what her niece had been learning and how the girl would fair fighting with an injury.  Pyralis did not show mercy in fights and it was likely the girl would walk away with a few more injuries.  True foes would not wait for her to heal, fighting with wounds would be an important experience.  Pyralis' toes splayed, her claws digging excitedly into the earth as her ears pinned to her head, eyes narrowed and ready for action.  In a moment the fight began. Aby leapt straight forward, fangs aiming for the center of Pyralis' left cheek.  Swiftly, Pyralis shifted a step to her right and kicked off, launching herself forward but slightly off center with her left shoulder lined up with the underside of Aby's neck as she aimed to hurl that shoulder forward into the center of the girl's throat in the hopes of severely bruising the girl's windpipe and leaving her gasping for air.   Simultaneously Pyre's jaws shot forward and down as her head tilted slightly to her own left, attempting to catch the left side of Aby's face in her jaws.  She aimed to have her upper fangs rip into the flesh above Aby's left eye and her lower fangs in the center of Aby's left cheek in a solid, deep and hopefully bloody, hold.  As she was aiming down, to make up for her height in trying to catch the little squirt, she kept her chin tucked to protect her own throat though she knew the move would leave her right cheek vulnerable but some times to gain a little you had to give a little and with the girl practically rushing into her jaws it made collision that much more likely.  Aby's fangs cut into the center of her right cheek leaving moderate cuts and sending blood spraying into the air.  Oh this was going to be fun!
