Corbin had just lost a fight to Rocky.  Sheep were tough!  Pup and sheep had charged each other for a headbutt match.  Corbin had ended up getting knocked back with his belly in the air.  While he had worked on getting his senses back and standing up the sheep had pranced around merrily baah’ng out its victory.

Time to find an easier target.  Corbin jogged around the area searching for any of his siblings.  At one point he thought he found Dorian and had jumped at him.  The hallucination faded out as he leaped on the image.  The hallucinogenic gases make things pretty darn confusing but also pretty fun!  

Well, he had now lost to a sheep and to a figment of his imagination.  Or did the fake-Dorian run away and so he had won?  Fake thins never talked, though sometimes they mouthed things silently.  It was confusing.

Finally, Corbin found Haydee, at least he thought it was Haydee.  It could be a fake after all!  Only one way to find out.  Corbin took a cautious step or two closer before charging, straight on.  Just like he had with Rocky the sheep he aimed to attack via a headbutt at his sister.  “Gotcha!!”

"Family"

Haydée loves the falls. The small pup could spend hours watching the water make its way down into the glimmering pool; the roar of it, a calming noise in her life. Autumn leaves, that had suddenly appeared out of nowhere, wave to her as she lounges near the pool’s edge, small paws dangling over the edge to send ripples out across the water’s surface. A content sigh bubbles out as the russet girl enjoys the day.

Hunger begins to make her tummy talk and Haydée abandons her place at the pool to go trotting back toward the family’s den. Corbin’s form appears on the path in front of her and the girl wags her tail in happiness when she spots him. Mouth opens to call his name when she sees a familiar glint in her brother’s eye. She has seen it when he plays headbutt with his sheep, Rocky. And now he is looking at her with it.

Corbin charges and the red girl reacts, ducking under his headbutt to aim her own head at his chest. Haydée just wants to push him back slightly so that she has room to prepare his next headbutt attempt. She loves games and the girl giggles as she tussles with her brother.

The first attempt was a fail.  Corbin had charged his sister for a head-on collision but just as he had expected success she had ducked down to dodge his attack.  Worse yet she had managed to push him back as well!  Round one hadn’t gone in his favor.  Maybe as they grew older they would think of proper spars but right now this game worked perfectly fine for a fight.

“AAAAHHH!” the boy came out with a holler as he charged again at Haydee, head-on.  This time Corbin would be ready!  If she swerved he’d try to keep up and not just be a straightforward battering ram.  Haydee was smaller so that gave him a benefit if they collided.  It would be nice to win a headbutt challenge after losing to his sheep so often.

"Corbin"

The small girl smiles happily at her brother, ready for his next attack. Corbin releases a mighty battle cry and, again, goes for her head on. She scrunches her shoulders readying for a straight on headbutt as he nears her. However, he swerves and Haydée is throw off by the new angle. So, she needs to reset. Again.

With a small, “EEP” the girl allows her legs to collapse underneath her and rolls away from her brother before quickly leaping back up to her paws and shouting slightly indignantly, “Heyyy! I thought this was a headbutt challenge! I just needed to be ready. I’m ready now! Bring it on brother!” Haydée spreads her legs slightly, widening her stance as she readies for her brothers next attack and hoping that this fight can be decided by whoever has the stronger skull!

Corbin grinned broadly as his surprise tactic worked!  It had been really sneaky of him, right?  The black pup with his firey orange markings was proud of himself until Haydee protested this plan style and Corbin looked thoughtful before nodding.  “Alright, straight on.  Who hits hardest!”  No strategy at all huh?  Well, that was how Rocky played anyway so he understood easily.  Pride had already decided he would win this match and besides, Corbin was hard-headed in all ways possible.

Corbin shoved his hind end down low, butt up in the air as his tail flagged merrily.  His body quivers for a second and then he leaps up running as fast s he can toward his sister.  “I’m gonnnnnnna winnnn!!” Corbin pinned his ears back and in excitement held his breath right before he expected to collide with Haydee

As much as the smaller pup hates headbutts, she also loves spending time with her brother, Corbin. Since he thinks himself a sheep, it is up to Haydée to grin and bear the pain that follows each meeting that is similar to this. But, if she is going to be in a headbutt challenge, then they need to do it right. Ducking under Corbin’s attack, the girl pops back up on the other side and proclaims that she was unready for the attack, which is true.

Corbin easily agrees with her and she gives him a sharp nod as he backs up to get some momentum behind the upcoming attack. Haydée spreads her paws, taking a deep breath and pinning her ears back as she readies herself. The pain will be temporary but the joy this will bring her brother will all be worth it in the end. He play bows to her, tail waving like a flag behind him asshe narrows her eyes, readying for the moment that is soon to follow.

He explodes forward, takes off with great speed as he races the short distance toward her. A shout follows him and she tenses the muscles in her shoulders and neck while bring her snout down. Emerald watch him and, right before he reaches her, she lifts her front end upward so that she meets him on his way down. Time seems to slow as heads draw closer and closer together. And then, the world seems to hold its breath as the moment of impact suddenly arrives.
