as we collide

All of this fighting was starting to get to the alpha - starting with Isardis and it just kept on going with this female - but she would keep moving. This female would be important, if she could win this fight she might be able to avoid someone in Valhalla being claimed by Glaciem, or avoid impending conflict in the near future. A bartering chip was more important than her precious beta seemed to understand as he ignored her orders to challenge for the Glaciem boy thinking he was doing anyone a favor in the long run. It was important for her to win, even more so thanks to him, and for that reason she would carry on despite her pounding heart and quickening breaths. Tiring out wasn't an option - not yet.

Narrowed eyes held an inner fire as she attempted to hold on to her grip, twisting her head and attempting to do more damage to the woman. She had pulled a groan from her opponent, and that was all that she needed to keep pushing. It would come at a price of as nearly every grip did, and her opponent grabbed her by the scruff with an incredible harshness between the back of her neck and shoulders. The only protection that she had from the woman's jowls were her own set defenses - which could very well be the only reason that she didn't end up submitting at this point in the fight. Her shoulders were rolled to protect the sides of her neck, and her hackles raised to protect the back of her neck. Instead of sensitive muscle and flesh and quite possibly her spine, the other would grab the thick raised hair along her spine. Her teeth would make shallow marks where she bit down - drawing blood as she gripped at the alpha but doing little lasting damage.

The damage that she did do hurt like a bitch though!

Chrysanthe held back a growl, choosing to instead try and bite down harder on the area she had come in contact with and twist her head just enough to pull another groan or perhaps a yowl of pain from the woman that she was fighting - to make her bleed and possibly submit before this had to drag on any further. Her tail was level behind her in an attempt to keep her balanced, and her squared back legs lowered slightly as she reacted to the other pushing against her. Pulling back, the woman's toes dug into the ground to create as much traction as possible and make it harder for her to be bowled over. Her bent front legs stretched out, and she pulled herself back thanks to her staggered front legs. Before she had her right foot forward, but that gave her leverage to pull backward against the other woman pushing against her, nullifying much of the other's movement at the cost of the grip on her scruff possibly tightening depending on the other's reaction. She also hoped that with her new partially squatting positioning, that she would be able to keep herself from being pushed down by the other female's grip on her neck.

Her defenses were kept in mind, her ears pulled back and her head was lowered over her throat as much as it could be, and her weight was evenly balanced, although she paid extra mind to her right side. As it was opposite to her opponent it could be the only thing that held her up if the other decided to push against Chrysanthe any harder.

attacks: attempting to worsen the pressure of her grip and pull back on whatever flesh she's managed to grab
defenses: ears pinned, eyes narrowed, raised hackles, rolled shoulders, squared back legs, tail level, toes digging into the ground, head lowered somewhat over throat, weight evenly balanced, front legs tense and straight to keep from being pushed down
Injuries: (bite wound above her eye, bite wound to right outer thigh) bite wounds around her muzzle, minor bruising along left shoulder, shallow wounds between neck and shoulders from Sendoa's teeth
ooc: last round! Chrys kept sentry rules (one attack per round, most defenses), so +5 at the end of this fight. Also i figure it's important to add in what's being fought for with what happened with the castration / abortion scenario so I edited to stick that at the end.

Edit: Round three of three for Sendoa
