The Grass is Greener [Ripper]

Well, it was safe to say he didn't quite know what he was doing yet and the girl bested him. The grip she had on his leg coupled with her pushing forward caused him to stumble. His swinging his head at her while he was unbalanced also didn't help him, and he found himself on the ground faster than he realized. He immediately scrambled away the moment he got a chance, unwilling to get zapped again. At least, unwilling today. "She wins! She wins!" He cried out, giving her the favor of the fight. Was he happy about it? No. But he was aware now that he needed more practice.

He gave her a few moments to catch her breath, too. "Zappy Star is good! That was Ripper's first fight!" He eyed her somewhat warily, unsure if she might want to have another go right away or not. Before he could say anything, his belly grumbled. "Ah, Ripper is hungry now after that! He needs to find some food..." He was about to turn and head home, but then figured he wasn't in any particular rush to go back home right this second. There was plenty of prey here, and chasing something down sounded like more fun! Turning back to her, he asked "Does Star want to hunt with Ripper?"

“Ripper wants to talk!”
