You think you got what it takes? (YFIR WARRIORS)

His attacks didn't quite land where he'd hoped, but nevertheless, they landed. Mild bruises would later blossom along the front of Laufey's left shoulder and lower chest where they'd made contact. The behemoth's teeth sank into the outside of Vereux's left shoulder. Since it wasn't where he'd been aiming, Laufey released it immediately. Overall his success was moderate and while not quite what he was hoping for, the brute was satisfied.

As Vereux began to step backwards, Laufey moved also. He aimed to position himself so that he was once again facing his opponent head on with his body held in a rigid, straight line. While he was at it he quickly reset some of his defenses. The brute widened his stance, bent his knees ever so slightly, splayed his toes and dug his nails into the dirt, his weight centering as he did so in the hopes of making himself unshakable. As he moved he felt his opponent's teeth sink into the top of the outer side of his left shoulder. The bite created moderate puncture wounds. Given the difference in height and Laufey's attempts to line the two wolves up once again, Vereux's right shoulder slammed into the lower left side of Laufey's neck instead of his throat and created modest bruising along the point of contact. Lastly, Vereux's left forepaw smacked the center of the front of Laufey's right foreleg. Given his hefty weight and firmly planted paws, the brute was unmoved by the attempt to off balance him. Instead a modest bruise would later form along the point of contact.

Laufey was quick to retaliate. He kicked off with his hind legs and rolled his right shoulder forward in the hopes of slamming the bony front of it into the middle of the left side of Vereux's neck. As he did so, the brute also hoped that the left side of his chest would make contact with the center of his opponent's throat. His aim wasn't to cause permanent harm; he only sought to choke. Instilling a little fear wouldn't hurt either.

Seeking to take advantage of Vereux's good eye being tipped away from him, Laufey aimed to place a lightning fast bite on Vereux's blind side. He tucked his chin and arched his neck to his left while simultaneously tipping his head down. Jaws parting, the brute sought to sink his upper teeth into the side of his opponent's neck just behind his right ear where his neck met his skull. Meanwhile his lower teeth sought to drive into the side of Vereux's neck just behind his left ear where his neck met his skull. The behemoth sought to encircle the back of his opponent's neck in the hopes of earning himself a solid grip that would allow him control over his opponent's head.

Through all of this many of his defenses remained the same (although the ones that changed were quickly righted among his attacks); eyes narrowed, ears flattened, hackles raised and tail lifted for balance. Tension ran the length of his body as he prepared for the counter attacks that were sure to come. He would win this.
