Seeing Double, Like Woah

*Valentine* · 10-29-2014, 08:17 PM

Readying himself, seconds ticked by as the brute readied himself for the countdown. He could take her, he was sure of it. His legs were longer, his lungs had to be bigger and he was built like a friggin-"THREE!" she bellowed, catching the brute off guard. Just like that she was gone, flying towards the peak before he'd even had the chance to kick off. Damn it all!

Several seconds too late, Valentine pushed off, sending dirt and pebbles flying up behind him. Long legs carried him swiftly after her, easily slicing through the feet that separated them. As fast as he was, she was faster, easily keeping ahead of him even though he managed to close the distance. By no means was he built for long distance running. No, he may have been quick for his size, but his speed came in short bursts.

This was not a short burst.

Finally her heels were within reach and the brute, recognizing the usefulness of this position, surged forward. He focused on her back paws, trying to copy the rhythm with which she moved. It took him several strides to acquire her pace, but when he did Valentine grew daring. Timing it just right, the brute lifted his left forepaw and swiped it out in front of him in an attempt to hook one of her heels.
