Nothing like a raid to get your blood flowing

All around him, fights broke out. They didn't seem to hold any seriousness to them, after all, this was more a practice raid than anything. That was fine by him. He didn't feel like he was up to par for a real raid, anyway. Not yet at least. It had been a while since he had done this, so he was content with waiting and watching. At least, until one of his dogs growled a warning. Before he could turn to see what or who was coming, he spotted another dog coming at him from in front, snarling and barking at him. He snarled back, hackles raised, though he didn't know who's companion it was. Regardless, he lifted a heavy paw and got ready to aim a heavy-clawed swipe at the beast when he felt something hit his right hip. Surprised, he grunted and growled, knowing that whatever had just hit him would likely leave that spot bruised and sore, though he let the momentum of whoever it was help him pivot, his heavy paw swiping towards whoever it was. Through a narrowed gaze, he didn't quite realize who it was, and he wasn't fast enough to figure it out before his paw potentially made contact.

And the mastiff? One of his dogs went to meet it, intercepting its attack on Ifrit while he handled his attacker. Whether or not his first strike hit, he sought to keep close, and it was in this proximity that the vague scent of someone he recognized washed over him. "Cinaed!?" He hadn't expected to run into his littermate here of all places! He wasn't even sure how to feel about this! Did he hate his brother? No. Was he angry? Also no. Confusion settled in, though also a feeling of wanting. He had no idea how to feel, and it made him falter for a moment. But was now the time to falter just because it was his brother? No. Ifrit wasn't really one to back down, and he doubted his brother was, either. If anything, they could hash it out after this practice raid. So for now, he surged forward in an attempt to push his brother back, head lowered as he sought to use his horns to deflect any oncoming teeth.
