Cascade vs Mercy

She eyed Hati with a bit of a bitterness in her gaze. She had a name, and she didn't really like being called something other than that. Unless it was a nickname from a friend. 'Purple Eyes' sounds like something you would tease a pup with. She may only be a year and a half, but she was only a season away from turning two. She was no child and should not be treated as such. Grumbling and rolling it off her shoulders, Mercy made her way towards Cascade with a smirk on her maw. It would seem that no matter what she was doing here, Cascade had a way of weaseling her way into her life. But it was fine, she did rather like the woman.

She was offered to have the first move or give it away, and she thought on this for a moment. Usually she was the one to offer the first move, so perhaps she should practice going first. "I'll take the first move, thank you Cascade." She said softly, nodding her head as she set her defenses. Her ears pinned flat against her head as her eyes narrowed, head lowering to align with her spine as her chin tucked towards her chest. Shoulders rolled forward as her tail rose to align with her spine, legs spreading equal distance apart as she bent her limbs slightly. Toes curled as her claws bit into the earth, her jaws parting as she let out a growl. Oh how nice it was going to be to get an actual fight done.

Springing into action, Mercy ran at Cascade. She attempted to come at the smaller woman slightly to her own (Mercy's) left, her right shoulder jutting out. Trying to close all the distance between them, Mercy attempted to thrust the lower front of her right shoulder blade into Cascade's nose, hoping that the force of the blow would daze her opponent and make her eyes water, leaving it harder for the darker woman to see. At the same time her neck would dip downward, head tilting towards Mercy's left as her already parted jaws aiming to bite down into the lower portion of Cascade's neck, just before it met her shoulders. Mercy's upper jaw was aimed for the left side of Cascade's neck, while her lower jaw was aimed for the right side. The white girl tried to bite down as hard as she could, careful not to come too close to the spinal cord as she tried to achieve a grip on the smaller woman. As a final attack, Mercy attempted to lift her front right leg, trying to bring it over Cascade's front left paw. Mercy then attempted to return her own lifted right paw to the earth, hoping to slam it on top of Cascade's left paw. She was trying to sprain some toes, hopefully making the smaller woman favor that leg.
