Ciná and only just shoved away from the earthen hued male and sent him packing when he caught a bit of movement out of the corner of his eye and Tine alerted him to another opponent coming in hot. He spun to face the monochromatic woman just in time to intercept her attack. She had clearly been aiming for his side, but with his movement her shoulder ended up striking into his shoulder instead, making a clash that made him wince and told him it was sure to bruise, and caused her teeth to graze his scruff. He quickly leaned into her attack, shoving forward where their shoulders had already connected to try and push her back as he gripped his claws into the ground to give himself more leverage. Their heights were slightly more similar than his last opponent had been and they seemed to be on a more even playing field when it came to build. On one hand that meant that he wouldn't have to worry about a smaller opponent that might try to get under him, but on the other it felt more likely that he might end up in a stalemate trying to push her like this unless he did something else to throw her off balance. In hopes of doing just that, Ciná attempted to hook his right forepaw around her left ankle, trying to move quickly to pull the paw out from under her before she had a chance to lift her paw out of the way or shift her balance.
