The male approached and Esti slipped into a loose, easy smile as he nodded at her. The quiet type, huh? She wondered if he was a healer, like Revenge, but quickly dismissed the thought. For now, he was a warrior and her opponent. He didn't waste any time setting his stance and then barreling towards her. Pretty brave for someone fighting someone half a foot taller than them.
Kicking off, Esti aimed to close the distance, which was around 10 feet between the two. Quickly, she worked in her defenses. Her ears pinned to her skill, her lips curling and her face scrunching for protection. Her shoulders rolled the thick scruff around her neck. In addition, she tucked her chin to add extra coverage to her neck. With each step, her nails would dig into the ground, her toes spreading wide for traction. Her weight was evenly distributed to all four limbs which remained slightly bent for agility even as she ran. Her hackles stood rigid down her back, leading to her tail which flagged out behind her for added balance. They drew closer and closer to impact. It was happening. Three... two...
Sike! As Arcus stepped towards his left, Esti stepped towards her right, creating a small distance between them. Because of this distance, Arcus would be unable to even graze Esti with his shoulder. Arcus's right forepaw missed Esti's right forepaw swooping into the area between her foreleg and hind leg as she aimed to come up alongside Arcus's right side. His bite, which was aimed towards her shoulder, scraped down Esti's right side starting just behind her ribs towards her flank. Two moderate, but deep gashes would be made and the titan woman winced at the pain. She wondered, just for a second, if it would scar, but decided it didn't matter. Bracing for impact, Esti attempted to drive the sharp, forward part of her right shoulder into the brute's gut, just behind his ribs. Esti aimed to quickly dive to grip Arcus's right flank, opening her jaws and rotating her head slightly to her left as her head swung right. Her upper jaw sought the area where Arcus's right hind leg met his body, her lower jaw seeking to wrap around to part of the underbelly and, if they weren't both careful, his sheath. She lifted her right foreleg, redistributing her weight to her other three legs, and attempted to hook it around Arcus's middle right hind leg, just below his knee. She aimed to pull the limb towards her chest while using whatever collision force she had to attempt to knock over the smaller boy and force him to submit.
