Naiche vs Recluse (tournament)
Naiche hadn’t been in the best mood recently. As general of the armada, he wasn’t going to miss out on a fighting tournament held by Ashen regardless of his mood besides, he always vented best in a fight. He wouldn’t fight to kill but he sure as hell would fight to win and not worry about the damage done. The wheat-toned wolf kept a confident and formal look to his features. The wolf he found himself paired with was considerably larger which Naiche was use to. She was slimmer than he used to and that might be a nuisance when one of his keen advantages was often his speed. Naiche wasn’t going to waste time, the moment they got the option to start Naiche would run in. With the desire for blood suddenly in his eyes his first two strides were forward, a feint to hopefully make the wolf believe he planned to attack the face, his next stride would pivot him off to one side, aiming to go wide and get around to hopefully bite at her back leg, if successful this would include snapping his neck to one side to hopefully impede balance or perhaps just slowing the wolf down.

Though she would never be able to know it for sure, nor was Recluse empathetic enough to really care either way but it seemed that emotions were running high. Recluse for her part was dealing with two conflicting feelings, the festival was a celebration, recognition that the empire was still growing and expanding but it was overshadowed by the death of her uncle and the uncertain future of her new cousin...

The moment Recluse started to flail her paw Naiche let go with no desire to play a game of tug. Holding onto her for too long was making himself a target, remaining in motion was a far better tactic. The leg took another swing and did swipe across the neck but not hard enough to appear to matter other than to make him take a cautious fast step away. Naiche turned back to face Recluse and made for his main move now, lunging in to put himself near Recluse so it would be near shoulder to shoulder as he lunged in to aim a bite in the direction of her throat though his hope was she would turn her head to defend. If she did turn her head to try and defend the neck Naiche would bite for the muzzle and squeeze in, if she didn’t his target would be her neck. Either way, he planned to clamp down hard. It was a tournament, he wouldn’t be respectful to the enemy if he went gentle. Besides, he really preferred bloody battles with real risk for real victory. Especially when Naiche was feeling irritable.

Recluse seemed to secure her freedom, her paw just barely grazing him and at the very least giving her a bit of breathing room as Naiche seemed to back off. She stuck out her tongue at him over her shoulder, it was hardly a real fight just yet and yet... it was at the very least helping her to relieve her tension if not his. Recluse would try to pivot to face him, instead only getting partially turned around before he charged, his parted jaws clamping down on the edge of her left shoulder blade instead. Recluse hissed in pain. |

Naiche twisted his head as much as he could to avoid the worst of the damage that would have come from Recluse’s head into his jaw. Still, it did clip him enough for to make his eyes squeeze shut for a second as his muscles tightened, of course, his jaw also tightened so that his pressure on her shoulder blade would grow stronger. The larger wolf had her front portion down lower a bit in her attempt at the attack and so Naiche would use that along with his grip on her shoulder to shove into her, aiming to knock her down and snap at her neck with no real intent to connect, only to prove that in this fight he had won. She was a worthy foe, one that Naiche would enjoy fighting again in the future. Speech:"Live to fight" Think
