Glancing down at her paws, she spreads them slightly wider than her shoulders. Flexing her toes, tensing her muscles, she inhales deeply. As she releases that breath into the humid spring air, she looks up. Ears hold forward then one slightly moves off to the side. Bright heterochromatic eyes focusing on her surroundings as she searched. Readying herself for what was to come, Delphi would not let those larger than her beat her down. Not now, not ever. She would prove that she was the baddest bitch out there. That was the goal at least.

Feeling herself relax slightly as she takes a few steps forward, the gremlin girl lets out a sharp howl. Commanding, beckoning, urging someone to meet her head on. No need for introductions or niceties. Not this time. They could spill each other's blood without exchanging names. She was okay with that.

As one spar ended, another howl was sent out. Vanta's ears perked, her adrenaline still flowing from her dance with Flurry. Bidding her opponent goodbye, she rushed to catch the call before another might beat her to it. Here, another girl stood. This one was younger (and smaller) then the last - a yearling - but Vanta knew better than to judge another based on their age or size. "Quick and dirty, I like it." She greeted, stepping into the ring and placing herself square to the stranger. It seemed she would get more practice in today then she had anticipated.

Vanta shook out her coat, loosening her muscles and readying herself for the impending match. Her defenses were set quicker this time then the last, the flow of combat coming back to her naturally. "Ready?"

Once receiving confirmation, Vanta would initiate. She sprung forward with as much speed as a dire could muster, holding her head low between her shoulders in anticipation for the small wolf's retaliation. In her experience, the smaller the wolf.. the more likely they'd go for her underbelly. Vanta would defend that access point between her limbs with every inch of her might.

Delphi did not expect a dire-sized girl with dazzling eyes to approach. The scent of adrenaline and excitement hot in the air as the other drew closer. She watches carefully as the other girl stops and readies herself. In response, Delphi does the same. Her muscles tensing back up as a smirk takes over her expression. "I'm always ready," Delphi quips back.

Though Delphi had not been in another fight moments earlier, she still had speed on her side. Watching at the girl sprung toward her, lowering her head to protect the opening to her underbelly, Delphi has to recalculate. Of course sliding between those long front legs would've been the easiest route at her size. It made sense, but Delphi wasn't here to make sense. She was here to learn and adapt.

So as the other girl grew closer, Delphi unsure of what her attempt would be, she jumps to the side and lets the packed dirt slide beneath her paws. Turning her backend so she's more perpendicular to her opponent's left side, Delphi uses her momentum from jumping and propels forward. At the last second, she leaps upward and attempts to grab ahold of the girl's shoulder. Does it leave her open to get grabbed by the scruff? Sure. Was it risky? You bet. But that was Delphi in a nutshell.

Having taken away the small girl's most natural route of attack, Vanta had expected her opponent to try a different angle. As Delphi dodged and then leapt, Vanta's paws clenched to catch the dirt below. She skidded to a stop a bit too quickly, losing her balance enough that her next move was a desperate one. Kicking out her limbs from beneath her, Vanta threw herself to the ground onto her side. It exposed her underbelly - the very thing she was trying to protect in the first place - but gave her an alternative means of attack.

She waited until Dephi's leap drew her near, pulling her limbs back into her until the time was right to release the tension - kicking out at the small, flying woman with her back legs like a cat. It was not a move she had practiced, but if she was lucky enough to aim right, perhaps she could end the fight here and now with a well-timed kick to the face.

Her opponent's next movements caused a flash of confusion to cross over her face. One second there is a massive frame in front of her leaping form and the next, there is air. All she can see is the dirt and dust that spread out over the deserted prairie. Her mouth opens in surprise. She is given a split second, still mid-air, to frantically look around to see that the girl has sprawled out on the ground in front of her. Delphi's face scrunches as she begins to fall. Fall toward the girl and her belly that... had she not been wanting to protect moments before? What even was this tactic?

Just as her paws come close to grazing the ground and possibly the girl's leg, she sees something from the corner of her eye. Those eyes that suddenly go wide as the paw connects with her cheek. A yelp leaves her as she goes hurdling sideways. The connection had been painful. Landing forcefully onto the ground, Delphi curls up before hurrying to her paws. Spitting blood from her mouth as she shakes away the stars, she bristles with frustration. "The fuck," Delphi snarls as she wastes no time propelling forward and launching back at the girl to try and get the girl while she was down.
