((First Spar, Read The Guide Too So Hopefully I Don't Do Too Bad!))
He Moved Away From Me, But Only By A Few Feet. I Watched As He Set His Defenses, My Eyes Falling To His Tail While At The Same Time, My Own Ears Fell Flat Against My Skull. I Was Envious, And A Bit Nervous. I Hadn't Much Experience In The Fighting Field, Much Less Without My Tail Now...Would He Have A Greater Advantage In Balance? I Began To Question Myself, And Then The Doubt Would Come...My Heart Hammered, And Then His Words Echoed. "Ladies First." My Breath Caught In My Throat, The Boy Australis Was Ready And Here I Was Standing Like A Fool. Taking A Few Deep Breaths, I Shook Off What I Could Of The Doubt And Readied Myself. I Can Do This. I Told Myself.
I Rolled My Neck And Shoulders First In A Vain Attempt To Loosen Myself Up. I Watched What He Did, And So I Copied To The Best Of My Ability. I Narrowed My Eyes, My Ears Flattened To My Head, My Knees Bent, And I Aligned My Head And Spine. One Last Deep Breath...
I Stared At My Opponent, Quickly Deciding Where I Would Try To Strike. Once Located, I Launched Myself. I Moved Quicker Then I Anticipated, My Paws Falling Heavily Upon The Ground As My Claws Dug In For Traction With Each Step. My Shoulders Rolled Forward, Preparing For Impact. I Dove At Him Almost Head On Before Leaning Slightly To The Left, Coming At Him At A Slight Angle. My Left Shoulder Jutted Forward, My Intention Was To Crash My Weight Into The Left Side Of His Chest & Push Him Back. As I Did This, My Scruff Bunched Forward To Add Some Protection, My Head Lowering Over My Throat In A Manner Possible To my Position. Since My Body Was Built More Like A Tank, I Figured Why Not Use It To My Advantage? As I Attempted To Collide With Him, I Placed My Weight More On My Hind Legs, Hoping To Even Out The Fact That I Had No Tail To Use For Balance. I Tightened My Abdomen, Blood Rushing Through My Ears As My Body Roared With The Fire Of My Ancestors. With A Pounding Heart, I Attempted To Snake My Left Foreleg Forward To Try And Hook His Left Foreleg, Perhaps An All Too Simple And Yet Vain Attempt To Compromise His Balance. While Attempting This, I Decided To Try For First Bite, And So My Head Jerked To The Left, Teeth Seeking His Ear. Though With My Luck, I Probably Would Not Attain Such A Feat...
