The man confirmed Birna's request and she quickly set her defenses. Her head and tail lowered gracefully to align with her spine. Her chin tucked and her neck scrunched back as her shoulders rolled forward in an effort to protect her throat. Birna's hackles raised and she moved her limbs equidistant apart, her weight spreading evenly across the limbs which coiled tightly ready to spring. Her toes spread wide, claws digging into the earth as she snarled, the action bunching the flesh of her face. Her ears pinned tightly to her head, eyes narrowing as she watched her opponent for the first move.

The man charged, coming up on Birna's right side, perpendicularly aligned with her body just behind her right shoulder where he was coming in low, aiming to bite the pectoralis muscle in her lower right side just behind her right elbow. However, Birna had no intention of standing still and as the man started to make his move she prepared hers as well. As Fate charged Birna would shuffle her feet to move her hindquarters to her own left with the intent on bringing herself parallel and facing Fate head on. As he dove for her underside Birna's jaws would widen her head tilting to her left and down as she dove, seeking to catch the upper front of Fate's face in her jaws and not only get a solid grip but hopefully halt the man's attack [counter]. She would aim to land her fangs just above his eyes hoping she could tear into the flesh enough that she'd cause blood to pool in his eyes and temporarily blind him. She also hoped that her upward angle would prevent her lower jaw from spraining in this attack.

In addition to her fangs Birna's back legs would spread a little wider, her weight shifting evenly, her tail stretching behind her for added balance as she attempted to lift her left foreleg seeking to throw it over the back of Fate's neck, just behind his skull with the intent of putting her hefty weight on his neck in a desire to strain it. As she moved she felt his left forepaw wrap around her right wrist, pulling the paw off the ground just as she moved to lift the limb for another attack. Her previous shift in weight managed to prevent her from falling over and also lifted her right forepaw out of the way of Fate's left back paw. Birna went with the motion seeking to pull her right forepaw up and out of Fate's grasp so that she could reach it behind Fate's left forelimb, right below the elbow with the intention of pulling the limb towards herself. She hoped this movement coupled with her bite and weight throw might bring the man belly down in the dirt.
