[Fight] Umut vs Bahra

[Talencia]

Bahra wasn't about to let such an advantage go by without taking further advantage. As the other lioness staggered backwards, she followed relentlessly. She bit, clawed, and snarled with her unabated ferocity. She'd teach this talkative, cowardly Burk not to mess with the Qyrhyeshti! With a loud roar, she reared up on her hind legs and reached with both forepaws towards her enemy's face. She'd leave marks the other lioness would never forget!  

[Andranis]

Umut was starting to slow down. She was accumulating more injuries, and she'd soon have to face the choice of either dying here, or fleeing. And since she intended to raise at least one cub to try to NOT fight, she intended to flee... Or, if she had to die, die trying to flee. Umut got her eyes clear enough to roll away from the other lioness' claws and teeth, though at least one found its mark on her side. She wasn't sure entirely if it was teeth or claws, but it hurt either way.

There she went, rolling away again! This repeated tactic enraged Bahra further. It was a submissive, retreating way of dealing with attacks, and not at all what she herself had learned. It also was infuriating, because it made it harder for Bahra to keep on top of her. This was not at all the face-to-face fighting that she preferred. with her emotions raging high, she roared, lips peeled back from fangs, then launched herself into the air. Her intention was to pounce heavily upon the rolling lioness, pinning her to the ground. If she could just get her to stop rolling, the fight could be finished off! Assurance of victory was sending the blood surging through her veins like the hot wind across the sands.  

[Andranis]

Clearly her avoidance tactic was working... And making the other lion madder by the minute. Not that Umut really CARED at this point... And then she rolled again, grunting as her leg was swiped. She turned around, crouching and trying to make herself small, roaring and swatting out at the other lion. Maybe, hopefully, she could at least land a good hit before she ran off to lick her wounds...

The other lioness' attitude was clearly one of defeat and a desire to flee. With the fire in her blood, Bahra wasn't likely to just allow her to escape. She wanted blood, she wanted death! Nearly blinded by her rage, she leaned in close to whap the Burk female over the head repeatedly with quick, sharp slaps with over-extended claws. She snarled, growled, and made the most unearthly noises of anger. Had anyone listened closer, they might have picked up on the inner agony that threaded through it all... despite her hatred for the enemy, it was all about her brother. Where was he, if these despised Burkuteshti didn't know about his absence?!

She could only hiss again, swatting back at the lioness attacking her. It was making her madder and madder, this lioness who came into HER pride's territory, violated THEIR border, and then accused them of having her brother! Why would Umut even WANT her brother?! As her paw moved, claws out, she felt it hit... Something. She wasn't sure what, and she didn't care, as long as it was the other lioness and it got her to back off!  

[Talencia]

She'd allowed herself to become distracted with thoughts beyond the fight. Not only did she not manage to smack the older lioness, but a searing line of pain across the bridge of her nose and across her sensitive nostrils sent immediate tears into her eyes. She gave a gasp of surprise, jerking backwards out of range, clapping her batting paw over the scratch. It bled notably, but wasn't a huge deal in the wide scope of things. Even so, it hurt!

She eyed the blood on her paw when she took it away from her nose, then glared death at the other lioness. That was it. It was time to be done with this! With a roar, she surged forward, fangs bared and claws digging deep into the sand as she barreled the few steps to her target.  

[Andranis]

She felt the hit connect, sending her rolling. The damage wasn't bad, but it was enough. Umut was done, she hadn't wanted to even BE on this patrol... And to make matters worse, there were angry Qyrhyeshti on their side of the border! The loam-colored lioness got up and, ears back, she began to run back toward her compatriots and pride members. Let them get lost looking for their lost pride member! She didn't care! He could be out in the Roguelands galavanting with some bright pink leopard, for all she cared at that point! She'd offered help and be rebuffed for her efforts!

Bahra hissed triumphantly as the other lioness began to back away and took one step after her. A noise nearby recalled her to her situation, however. It wasn't just this one fight, there were others to consider as well. She spat another hiss at the cowardly, beat-up lioness, then turned to see how her pride-mates fared. Regardless of how her own fight had garnered victory, if the others did badly, they would have to retreat. She suppressed a brief surge of irritation at the possibility that they would and could do poorly in their fights, cast a last glare at Umut, and moved towards Faiz and Sabit.
