Let's Dance, Baby!
Verdant would watch as her opponent settled into a defensive stance without much issue. Her smile slowly turned into a snarl, lips curling to reveal ivory daggers. Already she could see that the woman knew her way around a fight. But the ultimate test would be whether or not she could best the russet Queen. The tri-colored woman would shoot forward to her right (sibs left), looking as though she was about to flee the scene. Anticipation caused her to tense, waiting to see what would come next. Her opponent would suddenly turn towards her, coming in at an angle. Her opponent would attack her leg side, jaws aimed at her upper left forelimb. She would swing her hips to her own right in an attempt to place the woman directly in front of her. Tan jaws would sink into her leg, piercing her flesh though not enough to cause serious harm. Her opponent was two inches taller, immediately throwing out any attacks angled at her scruff out the window. Improvising, the woman would throw her left shoulder and left leg forward, in an attempt to shove her leg further into Odettes jaws, hoping to wedge her leg far enough back to cause discomfort or make the woman gag. Simultaneously, her own jaws would unhinge, aiming to grab a hold of the woman's left sided upper neck. She aimed to grab a thick hold of fat and fur, nothing life threatening. Her right leg would then leave the safety of the ground, reaching out in an attempt to wrap around the back of Odettes left forelimb. As soon as her limb left the ground, her balance would adjust to her remaining three limbs, her weight settled mostly onto her hind legs, should Odette try to move her front left leg in anyway. In her attempt to grab Odettes left leg, she would then retract her own limb back towards herself, wanting to pull the woman's leg out from under her to upset her balance.
All the while, her defenses never faltered. Eyes remained narrowed, ears pinned, hackles lifted, while her crown remained level with her spine and chin tucked as much as possible. Broad shoulders rolled forward to push extra fat and fur around her neck for protection, her tail would remain straight and level with her spine to act as a rudder. Sturdy limbs remained spread equidistant and bent at the joint for balance, while toes splayed and claws dug into the earth for traction. Her abdominal muscles flexed to tighten her core, she refused to go easy on anyone wanting to become part of their Elite force. She knew that each and every wolf that challenged for the rank would be brutally tested to prove their strength and worth.
