Like a Good Neighbor! [R A I D]

Brandr emerged victorious and he stepped back from the Winterfell man he'd been fighting, taking a moment to catch his breath. He had to admit he was a bit stunned by the victory. How long had it been since he'd sparred? Well, apart from the practice spars before the raid where he was promptly trounced by the more experienced.

Brandr re-centered himself. He was injured but not so much he couldn't continue so he opted to pick one more fight. His eyes first settled on a yearling male. The boy looked seasoned as a fighter but for some reason Brandr couldn't quite bring himself to attack the youth. Perhaps it was the thoughts of his daughter back in the pack boundaries, ill. Still ill.

His eyes were drawn then to the Winterfell alpha who had defeated Theory and he felt his hackles raise. Ah yes, the source of this. Two thoughts ran through his mind. One, that he hadn't a prayer against such a seasoned fighter. Two, if he could defeat Theory then he was the biggest threat on this battlefield. Brandr set his defenses and prepared to attack. He kicked off violently, seeking to come at Acere's right side, angling in toward the back of his front leg at a 45 degree angle. His jaws flung wide as he sought to dig his jaws into the crease where the back of Acere's front right leg joined his body. At the same time Brandr flung his left shoulder forward, seeking to strike it into the other man's ribs and cause bruising.

Brandr didn't consider attacking from behind low in any way. It was a practice raid after all and in a true raid one had to watch their back. He'd trust Ambi, his eagle, to watch his. All in all though he knew his efforts were risky and the chance of victory slim. But victory wasn't necessarily the goal. Brandr simply hoped to do enough damage to his opponent to take Acere out of play and protect his fellow pack mates. If that meant taking the Winterfell alpha down with him then so be it!
