 Yessenia had traveled a long way from the U'W to get to the coast. It was hard moving on from Tobias, but they both needed a fresh start. Life wasn't the same out here as it was back home, and if possible, it had turned Yessenia more bitter than she had been to begin with.
The heavyset lioness chuffed before finding a comfortable place to sit. She had lost weight since being on her own; some would find that healthy, but Yessenia saw it as a personal failing. It proved she was no longer so well taken care of, and that wouldn't do at all.
The loss of Tobias had been the most awkward, but it was her family that burned. She hadn't seen them at all in her travels and at least with her previous mate she had the comfort of knowing he was well. Yessenia fretted over her soft mother, her wayward sisters, her idiot brothers, her loving papa, and ....maybe Mitra, if she was feeling particularly nostalgic.
She was no fighter, but Yessenia knew she wouldn't be able to last much longer on her own. Her hunting skills had improved greatly, though she detested the whole process. No, better to join this pride, settle in and find a nice male to take care of her.
Spotting a dark lioness on the horizon, she called out, "You! Who can I challenge around here to join? I'm ready for a duel." Even as she spoke she didn't sound thrilled about it. What if she bruised? Or worse, messed up her fur?

 Anika was prowling the borders. The black lioness had been in a slump. She was beginning to consider going out on a viking. Her children were now all grown to adolescents and didn't need her all that much. Not that they needed her all that much to begin with she was raising her girls to be strong and independent... of course some of them had picked up the lessons better than others.
She saw the pink lioness before she heard her call out. Anika leapt down from where she stood. "You can challenge me, If you prove your worth and strength, I will allow you access to the pride." It was a simple way, if you could fight and earn your keep you could be a member of the vikings. Anika was determined to put on a good fight, she had lost her last few challenges and although she liked to think she was just finding the best members to let in, the black lioness was starting to think maybe she was getting weak.

"Oh joy." Yessenia drawled. Prove my strength? She would have better luck pushing a boulder up a mountain...in the rain...with no legs. When she stood her whole body seemed to shake with her, making her look larger and more intimidating than she actually was. Some lions actually thought her muscular beneath all the fat, which was hilarious, really.
"Come at me then, I'll not be coming to you." There wasn't much distance between them, but she would need all of her strength just to make it through. No sense wasting it on walking to her own doom.

The black lioness eyed the pink female. She wasn't sure what to make of her. Usually when someone came to challenge for entry to the pride they were often eager and itching with a need to rush into the battle and prove their worth. She narrowed her eyes, this could be laziness on the other lioness's part or it could be a brilliant battle plan. Perhaps she rather fight on the defensive opposed to the offensive.
There was no point in thinking that much about it clearly the other lioness wasn't going to come at her so Anika went in for the fight. She moved swiftly towards the other lioness her head down aiming to collide right with the middle of the pink lioness's chest, if she was successful it would knock the wind out of her opponent and cause her to be a little bit dazed. The down side of this battle plan was that she had to keep her head bowed so she couldn't exactly see where she was running, it wasn't the smartest of ideas really, but Anika was counting on the other lioness being a poor fighter.

She's kind of ugly. While Anika poured energy into deciphering Yessenia's battle strategy, the chubby female studied the darker one with a critical eye. She was far too muscular to be a good choice for any self respecting male and there wasn't a single speck of color on her safe for those eyes. They would have been almost pretty if they weren't so intense.
She very openly squealed when Anika struck out towards her. Yessenia didn't move out of the way in time to avoid the hit, and found herself struck down, breathing hard just to catch her breath. "You...you hit me!" She wheezed. That was the point of a fight, yes, but a lady should never strike another with such force!
Standing, Yessenia could see not one, but two lionesses. That just made her furious. So in blind anger, she struck out at the shoulder of the closest one, which as luck would have it, was the real deal. "I will rip the paw from your leg if you hit me again!"

Anika rolled her eyes, wow this particular lioness was rather dumb wasn't she Anika thought to herself, "You did come to challenge me did you not?" Anika asked in a deeply sarcastic tone. She rolled her golden eyes at the chubby pink lioness' threats. She was pretty sure this was going to be an easy fight.
She moved swiftly lifting her nails out stretch ready to drag them across the pink lioness' face. Normally she didn't aim to scare those that she was battling but this lioness deserved a swift kick in the a** if you asked her.

"It was rhetorical," Yessenia snorted. Just how ignorant was this ocean rat? It made her think less of the pride if they had their females to come fight for them, but then she had been raised in an entirely different culture.
Yessenia yowled out in pain as Anika's claws sank into her flesh, but she didn't dodge. Rather she took the moment to use her weight as a battering ram, rushing the lioness to knock her down and pin her. At best she would break a rib and at worst it would at least knock the wind out of her.

Anika felt a surge of success when the pink female didn't move to dodge her at all. It was about time she succeeded in a battle, this female was going to be easy to pick off. Anika did her best not to leave lasting scars.
The black lioness did not see the pink lioness's move coming, and it hit her hard. She had no way to find her foot and before she knew it he was on the ground, the wind left her body in such a rush. She couldn't tell how sever the injuries were and she probably wouldn't until the other lioness got off her.
"You are free to enter." Anika said in a low voice it was barely above a whisper as she was still unable to get out with her lungs still feeling like they were still fully collapsed.

Keeping herself planted firmly on the lioness, Yessenia held her ground until she was sure the dark female wouldn't make another move. Which was considerable pressure taken in her massive weight.
When she ceded, Yessenia smirked and stood up. Even if she was bleeding and sore, it still felt good to put another in their place. Serves you right for not staying home like a good female. "Good". She harrumphed. Looking down at Anika, Yessenia rolled her eyes with an exaggerated huff. "Do I...Do I need to carry you back or something?" Her tone was more irritated than anything. Really, just what kind of a pride was this?

The black lioness rose to her feet hiding the fact that she was in great deal of pain. "No just go, I am fine." Anika replied through gritted teeth. This was aggravating to say the least, this was not the type of lioness Anika wanted to let walk into the pride.
"Good job." she uttered, it was somewhat truthful the female had done decently in the fight but her attitude was all wrong. It was a pity because the pride could use more strong females who wanted to advance but she could tell this female wasn't one of them, she would never rise in the ranks like Anika had. Without further words Anika turned and walked back towards her den, Umeko would have to tend to these wounds for her.
