Brotherly - - - love? tolerance?

“No stupid coyote could get this far in the pack though,” Kotori offered up in defense of his not noticing Az, though it even sounded week to Kotori.  The tail did sink down at his older brother’s blunt honesty of how Kotori had done.  

“You’re too big also.  When you had me in your paw I couldn’t have got to where I could kill you in time.” Kotori’s words coming out slower as he puzzled it.  “Oh,” as you could just see the reality coming to mind, “I should have got away instead of biting the paw, and then try to find an opening.”  

He was getting a second chance! Kotori perked up in excitement.  He got into a battle stance with his legs spread evenly, ears back and tail even with his body for balance.  Of course, Az was kind of huge and Kotori got the idea he wasn’t going to let him get a bite in easy.  He could have called Snow in to help but decided in a spar with his brother it should be one on one.

Kotori needed Az to lower his head if he wanted to get a chance for a good bite on it.  If Az would attack the same way as last time it would be with a paw instead of his mouth probably but to be sure he’d try to keep an eye on the guys leg and face.  If Az lowered his head or threw his paw out the boy planned to try and use that as a chance to get to his neck.
