Ralla, Attacking Harmony
The feel of her fist connecting with the other girl's face was indescribably satisfying. It had been way too long since she'd been in a real fight, what with the restrictions placed on them right after Impression. The roar and flash of pain from her dragon soon distracted her, though, and her attention left her opponent for a moment too long.
The handler got her square in the jaw, causing her to bite her cheek. Ralla spat blood at the ground. "And pass up a fight? Like that's gonna happen."
While she wasn't usually one to go around picking fights, she'd take just about any challenge that came her way, and a handler-rider war definitely qualified as a challenge. She swung again, this time aiming for the handler's stomach.

Harmonsk: Attacking Firith
Just as he had thought he had a really good hold, the dragon threw him off. Harmonsk hit the ground with a solid thump and skidded a little way across the ground. Snorting and shaking his head the rangy beast scrambled upright and launched himself once again at the enemy.

Harmony: Attacking Ralla
Harmony dived to the ground to avoid the blow, rolling and kicking out at her opponent’s ankle. “Why are you even fighting for them?” she demanded. “Do you really want to bow to shiny dragons your whole life? To answer to people who did nothing to earn their rank?”

Firith, Attacking Harmonsk
That sharding bronze tunnelsnake! His claws raked her hide again, spilling more ichor, while she had yet to do anything more than touch him. Firith shrieked her fury as she tried to get her claws on him - to grab him anywhere she could and dig in.

Ralla, Attacking Harmony
Ralla gave a hissing gasp when her opponent kicked her ankle, hobbling back. Any blow that landed close to a bone always sharding hurt. Her frustrations growing even as her dragon's did, she tried to kick at the other's head while she was on the ground, but a twinge in her ankle threw her aim.
"What, you think I should fight for you?" The young rider snorted. "What's any better about answering to your people?"

Harmonsk: Attacking Firith
Once again the claws scratched down him but didn't manage to do more than lightly perforate his hide. Now that they were up close again the bronze lashed out with his hind claws while he held on with his front, aiming for the green's underside.

Harmony: Attacking Ralla
Rolling out of the way of the greenrider’s attack Harmony shoved herself back to her feet, bringing her fist up at the same time and aiming to strike Ralla’s stomach. “How about the fact that anyone can rise through the ranks if they work for it, no matter what the breed or colour of their beast?” she panted; fighting and arguing at the same time was hard work.

Firith, Defending Against Harmonsk
This was not going at all as intended. They were supposed to swoop in, kill the wher, incapacitate the handler, then return victorious to the rest of their group to reaffirm just how awesome they were. Instead, she was bleeding from scratches and bites from a wher, who continued to be ridiculously wily. This one was clearly much more intelliugent than she'd ever given the creatures credit for, and was probably an exceptional specimen for its kind.
That might make her feel a little better later, but for now, Firith was absolutely furious. She screeched, rearing up to get away from his claws.

Ralla, Biding
Fighting and arguing was even harder when you'd just had the wind knocked out of you. Ralla stagged back, doubled over and gasping for breath. How could this possibly be going so badly? Like Firith, she was beginning to come to the conclusion that maybe this pair wasn't as lesser as they generally assumed everyone else to be.
"Firith is not a beast," she finally gasped out. "But I'm listening."

Harmonsk: Attacking Firith
She thought she could get away from him, but she was wrong! Swollen with pride and carelessness from his success to date, Harmonsk made a wild powerful slash at the foe's throat. Half way through the motion however a mental jab from his handler made his swipe jerk and lose some of its killer power. he asked of His, confusion colouring the word.

Harmony: Biding
Still breathing hard Harmony wiped more blood away from her face, and was preparing to strike again when she heard 'listening'.
"Harmonsk, DOWN!" her cry was backed up by a mental jab, and while it didn't stop her wher utterly in his tracks it at least threw him off and stilled him after the fact.
Now swiping sweat from her brow the handler turned back to the rider. "Their bondmate then," she corrected herself swiftly, "and I mean what I say! Keller believes in rewarding merit, not the hide colour somebody lucks into. Why would you want to side with a place that picks its highest leaders by which dragons mate at what time, and limits the leaders below those to only a select few colours, the bulk of which can only be bonded to heterosexual men between the ages of twelve and twenty!"

Firith, Defending Against Harmonsk
Firith jerked back from the swipe - not enough to spare her from it entirely, but it could have been worse. She raised a forefoot to strike back, but the track her rider's exchange with the handler had taken gave her pause. Her eyes still whirled red-orange, and she hissed threateningly at the wher, but she did not follow through with her strike.
The green lashed her tail. If she speaks true, it is a chance to have what we want. To be what they refuse to let us.
She and Ralla spoke often of the predicament of being a green and greenrider, and the lack of opportunity, acknowledgement, and respect that came with being what they were, but their fellows seemed to refuse to see that they were not 'just' what they appeared to be.

Ralla, Biding
Ralla cast a glance at the wher as the other woman commanded him to back down, and her gaze lingered as she waited to see if the command would be enough to hold him. Though Firith was clearly the worse for wear, with ichor oozing from the slashes and bites, Ralla didn't ask if she would be alright; she didn't need to. Her dragon was every bit as tough as she was, and would have been every bit as offended to be worried about.
If, she agreed, turning her attention back to the wherhandler. Ralla had half a mind to go back on the offensive, to pounce on her while she wasn't expecting it. It was hard for her to back down from anything, unbelievably hard, but her ambition was equal to her pride.
"Does he?" Her skepticism was obvious, but so was her interest. "Maybe that's true for his handlers, but how do I know he'd do the same for riders and dragons? What's to keep us from becoming subordinate to the whers just like we are to the metallics?"

Harmonsk: Biding
Allies?
Harmonsk liked allies. The fighting, and how well he had been doing, had been satisfying but allies were better. He didn't know if they would be in the end or not yet, and his posture remained tense, but he was no longer snarling or hissing.
***********************
Harmony: Biding
Her skirt had ripped, Harmony realised with some annoyance. Her lip was still bleeding quite freely too, and the pain was not something she relished; she'd been in her share of scraps before but nothing like this.
Licking at her lip, she shrugged. "I can't give you anything other than what I've seen in the brief moments I've had to talk to others in the revolution, I'm a bit new to this myself, but there were green and blue riders amongst them who seemed as respected as any handler. There's even a bronze pair come here to Malvren to fight for us, and if a bronze pair thinks this cause is worth turning away from tradition then it can't be a bad deal for riders."

"That so?" Crossing her arms over her chest, Ralla spat out the blood that had pooled in her mouth. She'd taken and given worse hits, but it had been awhile. "That's all well and good, but I need more than speculation. You know anybody else we could talk to?"
Keeping a wary eye on the wher, Firith moved to stand closer to her rider.
