fireball on the rocks

Esti settled about ten feet away from the woman- Katja- and prepared herself to fight. She was just about ready to launch her attack when two others appeared, breaking all focus and surprising the grey woman enough to where she called out a name which was apparently a mistake, Esti gathered, because she shook her head right after. Esti's ears drooped to the sides of her head. Who where these people? Why were they interrupting her spar? What the hell were they saying? Katja informed her that they were of her culture and proceeded to rattle off something that sounded made up to Esti's ears. Soon enough, though, the woman faced her again, ready to fight.

Nodding once with a sharp smile, Esti began to set her defenses. She tucked her chin and rolled her shoulders to protect her neck while her ears tucked to keep them away from being easily torn. Her stance widened, her knees bending and her weight distributing evenly across her paws as she dug her nails into the dirt for traction. Her tail and head fell in alignment with her spine and her hackles rose along the resulting line, offering protection and balance. Finally, her lips raised, still keeping a smiling form, her eyes narrowed, and her face scrunched to help deflect any attacks from the sensitive portions of her face. She growled, feeling pretty revved up, then took off.

Esti sought to close the gap between herself and Katja. She was larger than the woman and wouldn't waste any time on flair. She aimed to wait until she was close to Katja, then she would attempt to step to her right and ram the front of her left shoulder forward and downward into the left part of Katja's chest, on the inner portion where her chest and shoulder met. At the same time, she would try to stomp and pin Katja's left forepaw with her own left forepaw, redistributing her weight as she lifted her paw. Opening her smiling jaws wide, Esti would aim to bite and grip the upper left part of her opponent's neck, between where her shoulders met, with her upper jaw seeking the scruff in the middle of the two shoulders while her lower jaw sought the scruff where it met Katja's left shoulder, her lower teeth maybe just nicking the top of Katja's left shoulder. Hopefully, with this positioning, Esti could keep Katja from moving too much with the weight difference.
