The Icky Boys! vs Team Adravendis

It was time for the tournament to begin, and Cairo had paired with Caelia. For once in such a long time, his easy grin was on his face without too much effort, and he had donned his fighting armor, with all the pouches removed and left with Aurielle, who wasn’t participating in the fights, herself.

Enito and Chrysta were with him, the mandrill grumbling about the crafting he could be doing right now instead of fighting for play. The owl was silent, but a glance up told Cairo the owl’s silver eyes were glinting with birdlike amusement at the monkey’s pithy remarks.

They met with their first set of opponents, twin pups that looked rather like Ardyn and Aoife in terms of how big one would grow and how small one would stay. The smaller went for Caelia, and Cairo watched the other boy, his own defenses settling lightly as Enito hung back, waiting for an opening if it came where he was needed, and Chrystal circled above, watching Cairo’s back in case the other pup broke from Caelia and went for Cairo’s backside.

The pup took a slightly more tactical approach, and Cairo stilled, watching the boy’s eyes and body. Good try; Viscera didn’t bother with a full head-on sprint, instead attempting to circle to Cairo’s right and dart in for his hind end.

Cairo waited until the last breath before twisting on his front end, hind end whipping to his in a bound as he sought to bring himself in line with Viscera, seeking to have his right side to the boy’s left side, shoulder level with the boy’s hips. His swift movement took him out of the boy’s reach and evaded the bite and the talon-like claws raking for his ankle.

He pushed off as soon as his hind paws hit the ground a heartbeat later, aiming to snap his head to his right as he aimed to come up abreast of the boy and clamp parted jaws on the boy’s scruff, just behind the skull and gain a grip. His right foreleg simultaneously sought to snap up, weight shifting to his other three legs for support, tail out for balance, and plant itself over Viscera’s hips, seeking to drag the boy off his center of balance and maybe topple him.
