After her spar with the man, she found herself still not wanting to be done for the day. Her muscles were a little sore, but it was nothing that a quick rest wouldn’t fix. So, she hung out for around half an hour, drinking some water from her waterskin and munching on Habari’s specialty dried meats to regain some of her energy. As she sat, she thought about ways that she could keep her pack from getting too stale. Immediately, the idea of a tournament came to mind. Yes, that would be perfect for them. Obviously her mother wouldn’t participate, being laden down with little gremlins and all, but she could certainly oversee everything. She clammered to her paws and released another howl, daring someone else to challenge her.

Takeshi had also ventured to the battlefield to freshen up on his skills. He hadn’t quite reached the level of mastering his skills like he would have preferred, but with a little elbow grease he was sure he’d get there in no time. Thus, setting out with his claws and companions in tow, he ventured toward the territory who’s path his paws now knew from memory. It was a long trek, but not an arduous one, and he arrived with not much pomp or circumstance. A familiar call rang into the air and, as he approached, he noticed it was the Habari girl he’d fought before. He gave a bow, noting her companions, before doing some stretches. Once he was done, the boy didn’t waste much time getting right into it. He launched toward the smaller girl, his paws outstretched in an attempt to wrap them around her neck and use his superior weight to pull her to the ground.

"Speech"

To her surprise, the horned, glowing Ashen boy showed up to her challenge. She’d fought him before and seen him at several functions, though each one looked like he’d been brought there after pulling teeth, but this time he seemed much more comfortable. He brought along his companions and his claws as before and she watched as he stretched, with some amusement. She didn’t think that a wolf his size could even fold himself into the positions that he did. Then, he was lurching at her, strong forelegs out stretched to try and drag her to the ground beneath him. While it wasn’t an unpleasant thought, she wasn’t there for shenanigans, she was there to win. Her lithe frame allowed to nimbly duck out of the way, the fur of his body brushing against hers as she narrowed escaped his clutches. Her head whipped around to try and grab onto his hind leg in an attempt to pull it out from under him, hoping to use his bulk against him.

Talking

The girl, much lighter and nimbler than he, stepped just past him as he came crashing down onto the ground, his large paws landing with a resounding ‘thump’. Out of the corner of his glowing gaze, he watched her curl her head around, the flash of her pearly whites indicating that she was attempting to bite at him. Her direction suggested a hind leg, and the boy lifted the leg she was aiming for, kicking out in an attempt to kick her head away from her attack without the strength to severely injure her. If he succeeded, he would pivot his hind quarters away to once again face her. He struck out a foreleg, attempting to knock her across the top of the head and making her disoriented at worst, there was no sense in him hurting an ally.

"Speech"

Just as Kali’s jaws were about to close over the Ashen boy’s leg, her bi-colored gaze watched as it drew back as if he were about to kick her. Her gaze widened and she rolled to the side just in time for his claws to just barely rake over her cheek, a burning scratch trailing along the place where he’d connected. It didn’t bleed, but it was still annoying. She was quick to her paws, but not quick enough this time to avoid his massive paw from connecting with the side of her head. She stumbled to the side, disoriented with an ‘oof’ coming from her lips. Her nose wrinkled in distaste and she turned, lunging forward lightning quick in an attempt to deliver a bap of her own to the side of his head with a dainty paw.

The boy had succeeded in his strike to her head, sending her reeling to the side in obvious confusion. While she’d been partially incapacitated, he’d intended to tackle her to the ground in a pin, but she recovered faster than he’d anticipated. Whirling around, the girl struck out a paw at him, the dainty thing connecting with the side of his skull in much the same way his had to her. It felt like more of a dull thud than an actual hit, thanks to his larger size and thicker bones, but that didn’t mean it didn’t still sting. He side-stepped with a wince, glowing red gaze blinking in surprise as how quickly she’d moved. Touche, he thought. Touche.
