Kick them wicked things

Their companions ended up in spars of their own as Avaset and Lieven had it out on one side of them and Baz jumped in to stop Arlise before she could land her attack on Eska. All at once the training ground turned into a full on battle field and Ulric grinned a little at the chaos it caused. His shoulder hit home on Eska's side and he felt her stumble, but to her credit she was able to hold her stance and pretty quickly regained her balance. He took that brief moment to reset his own stance as well so that his paws were firmly planted once more and his defenses back in place by the time Eska got her bearings.
Not one to be discouraged, Eska immediately charged in head first - literally. She ran at him like a battering ram and he leaned toward the side that she approached him from as he braced for the impact. She wasn't a little thing by any stretch of the imagination, but he was still significantly heavier and larger than she was. Her head butting him did rock him slightly and made him give a soft "oof" as she knocked a bit of the air from his lungs, but he wasn't sure it really had the effect she had hoped for. However, the slight sway in his stance combined with her paw reaching out and yanking at his foreleg did manage to stagger him for a moment, catching himself as he stumbled to the side a couple of steps.
Ulric was just as quick to jump back into the fight, pivoting to face her again and lunging forward as he lifted his foreleg to try and slam his chest into her shoulder and wrap a foreleg around the back of her neck in the same motion. He shifted to try and press his weight into her as he shoved into her, trying to over power her and shove her down to the ground with the attack. He reached to try and grab her scruff between his teeth just to have another point of contact to keep her from being able to slip away, but it was a bit of an after thought so if it seemed like he wouldn't be able to catch her with that he'd give it up pretty quickly.
