Myria padded through the forest, the snowy powder glistened in the late morning sunlight. Birds chirped above; a sign that spring was approaching. The beta smiled as the sunlight illuminated her pelt. She turned and awaited her apprentice.

Koda padded into the clearing behind Myria. He plopped down on the ground and pricked his ears towards her curiously.

Alright...can you tell me about your experiences in battle? I know you mentioned you played with other animals...sometimes animal play is used to gain skill as a fighter.

Koda cocked his head and though for a moment. Well...... The bears taught me to stand on my hind legs to appear bigger. The otters taught me how to flee by swimming underwater. The owls taught me how to do a sneak attack. The list goes on....

Myria nodded as she pondered.
The best way for me to assess you, is for you to attack me. No hard biting, mind you. This is just to see if you know how to properly attack. After that, I will go at you to see how you handle being on the defensive side.

Koda approached Myria head on. He rose onto his hind legs and barred his teeth. When he landed, his fangs were aimed for a deadly shot to the head.

Myria was surprised by Koda's sudden burst of speed and his ferocity. The grey female was nimble on her feet, and she easily shifted herself so that Koda would land with his belly across her back; his attack would be useless at that point.

Koda yipped in surprise when he landed across Myria's back. He quickly recovered though and swung his head around for a grab at her neck.

Myria saw the muscles in Koda's neck move and the female craned her neck. Her fangs took hold of the muscles in his foreleg, where the joint met his shoulder.
If I were to rip here, you would be crippled. And then I would kill you. From this position, you can only grab onto my scruff. The skin there is though, and you would not damage me very much at all. Good try, though. she stated as she released his leg.

Koda lunged again at her neck. This time he was able to take a weak hold of her scruff. He tugged on it but that only seemed to tickle her.

The beta easily shook herself free from his grasp. Heaving, Myria reared back and succeeded in removing the heavier male from her body. She turned to face him and let out a low growl, her amber eyes shining.
I wonder if he intimidates easily...if so, that's a problem.

He smirked and raised his hackles. He barred his fangs, laid his ears back, and snarled back. If Balo couldn't intimidate him, then surely Myria couldn't either.

Myria felt her lips curl back, and she slowly began moving to the left as she circled the younger male.
Let's see what you have got, Koda.

Koda snarled and lunged forward, he swatted at Myria with his massive paw. This was a move that he had seen a cougar use once.

Myria moved towards Koda, her fur absorbing the blow of his foreleg. The grey female maneuvered her body so that she had her flank against Koda's. Keeping her head close to his, she clamped her jaw down on top of his muzzle, careful to not damage him with her fangs, just applying enough pressure to keep him still.
He's not too bad...
