Let me hear your battle cry

Another wolf joined them, a black-and-white female who spoke to her opponent snappily. Arayne offered a few wags of her tail in greeting before turning back to the wolf she was to fight. The woman let Arayne have the first move. "A-alright." she said, swallowing. From here, the grey one looked like a boulder, immovable and anchored. She would have to strike where it counted instead of get into an all-out grapple.
Keeping her ears back and her tail held out for balance, Arayne moved from one side to the head, her head shifting like a serpent about to strike. She doubted she could fake out the larger wolf, but she was more concerned with finding a place to aim for. She stalked around the woman's right side in a circular path that slowly tightened as Arayne passed Zodiac's shoulder.
She paused midstep, and, like a whip cracking, she lunged, jaws flying open with lifted lips to attempt to bite onto the right side of Zodiac's neck, on the muscles behind her ear. If she managed to get a grip, she would also push herself forward, hunching her shoulders, hopefully turning Zodiac's head away from her. She knew enough about fighting to know that keeping her opponent's teeth as far away as possible was a wise decision. Her hindpaws were kept firmly anchored to the ground, although her front paws were lifted as she tried to get a grip on Zodiac's flesh.
Zodiac VS Arayne for Spar
Move: 1/4
Attacks: Lunges at Zodiac's right side, trying to bite the flesh behind her right ear and hold while pushing Zodiac's head away
Defenses: Ears down, lips up, hindpaws dug into ground, tail straight, shoulders hunched
Injuries: None
Edit: Bolded Arayne's words.
