Messing with the wrong one

If the multicolored brute had wanted to throw her off with his comment, he was going to be sorely disappointed. If anything, it just made her all the more eager to fight him and made a grin spread across her muzzle as an interested gleam touched her aqua gaze. She knew she was more forward and outwardly flirty even with wolves that were complete strangers to her so she didn't often expect to get similar responses in return, but she was always pleased when she did. "Careful, I'll hold you to that," she warned him with a chuckle before turning all of her attention to the fight at hand.

With her defenses in place, she braced for his attack as soon as she saw him dart forward to cross the short distance between them. Her eyes followed his movements closely while she kept her ears tucked neatly against her skull and her paws spaced evenly to keep her stance firm and stable beneath her. She picked up on the fake out he had planned pretty quickly and stopped the dodge she was tempted to do before it began. Instead, she lifted the right paw he was aiming for, feeling his teeth graze her ankle as she turned her paw over so that her paw pads were facing him instead of the ground. She swiped her paw upward and attempted to catch his cheek with her tiger-like claws, though she didn't have them fully extended like she would someone that she was actually trying to hurt. No need to scar such a pretty face.

She wasn't sure if her attack would land the way she intended though as he pivoted and his shoulder hit squarely into her chest, knocking her back a bit and threatening to throw off her balance since she was one paw short of a fully stable stance. In an attempt to catch herself and keep him from getting out of her reach, she reached toward his scruff to grab ahold of it, wanting to grip the loose skin there and almost use him to keep herself from falling. She also took the chance to shift her weight more firmly onto her back legs and attempted to bring her left leg over his back and across his shoulders and would hook her hook her claws into the shoulder opposite from the one currently pressed to her chest if she was able to get a good grip on him.
