Closed [The Bronze Woods] Old Hatreds (Shadow River)

[Scarlet Evony]

Scarlet could've anticipated the move. It was a classical response to her knock down. Why didn't she dodge it when she already had the time to execute it twice? It didn't matter, her senses were dwindling but she couldn't do anything about it. Distancing from her sparring partner, she put several feet in between them. "Is that the best you can do? I'm just getting started here." A small, nervous chuckle escaped her.

She couldn't shift fast enough before her enemy attacked again. It was only obvious that she needed to buy more time so she could turn to an eagle. "Come on, kitty. You look quite lost here. Not that you ever belonged to the forest. You seem pretty tame." Scarlet had long stopped hiding her body from the other kelvic. Even though she was dressed, she had the same animalistic look she imagined she had herself.

Scarlet made obvious efforts in protecting her new nest, putting herself in between the feline woman and the tree she had stashed her belongings in. "This is your last forewarning before things get nasty. Turn away and leave, and I promise that I won't follow you until you threaten me again, pussycat."

Shadow River Shadow River rolls her eyes at the other Kelvic still not saying a reply. Talking just gets in the way of fighting. It is one of the many ways to distracted a person and buys time. Shadow never like to talk while she was fighting. At times she treats fighting like hunting. Talking well only get you killed. Every time the other Kelvic would say something, Shadow would only get closer to her. When her patron was done speaking, Shadow sprinted towards them. Raising her fist high to go for Kelvic's throat but, when her fist almost reach contact. She pulls it back, and went for a surprise kick. Using a lot of force in her kick as well.

[Scarlet Evony]

It was indeed unexpected, but nothing she hadn't seen before. This time Scarlet, on full alert shifted to her left the second her rival's kick was supposed to hit her in full force. The energy which was supposed to discharge in her body went freely in front. As an eagle, you learn the small moves are the ones that count, like shifting with the wind. As a human, you learn to apply them It was enough for Scarlet to raise one of her legs as the shadowy figure passed her by, waiting for hilarity to ensue.

However, the fervor with which she was already attacking was starting to get slightly alarming. This battle was probably going to get bloody soon, and by the time it did she already needed to shift into her raven form. It was probably the best thing to just defend until Scarlet dealt a serious enough blow to her opponent so that she could shift.

[Shadow River]

Shadow River Shadow was highly irritated that the woman was able to dodge her kick. She knew needed to take down the other Kelvic before she shifted into her animals. Shadow would sure be in trouble because, that would a great disadvantage. It's not like Shadow cares a great deal about her clothes. It's fact she has a earring on and a knife secretly strap to her thigh, is the problem. Shadow could risk injury if she turned. Shadow lifts her leg, twirling around planning to kick her opponent again.
