Ooc: Hi....I will attempt a reply, no promices to the quality but I have to make an effort into re entering WL life!
Bic: Sarabi, ever watchful, a gleam to already omnimous looking yellow watched the frey they continued before the gathered wolves. Like many she blayed for blood, but hers were with silent shouts all in her head, both complimentry when a particuarly good blow was stuck and further, more harsh words at lack of skill and like so many, at the prolonging of the bout. Eyes narrowed, as the Ironesh wolf picked up the pace and a grin spread across he maw, distorting her features. head lent in foward, body arching downwards as she attemtpted to get closer to the battle without actualy moving from her spot.
Occasionly her eyes would flicker away from the two dueling wolves, drawn away by some other movement and commotion. One such was the enterance of not one, but two wolves, both male and nither of a pleasant dipostion, but with a bunch of darks it was not a trait that was expected. Ears twitched, and she followed their movements further, first as the first male cleared a path, snapping and snarling as he made his way righ to the front of the crowd not far from where she herself was placed. The second, she noticed was not the best looking of all wolves, a rather bedraggled look to him, still when strange words uttered from his lips caused a shiver to run the length of her spine an interest was sparked within her.
Head shook, her attention had been averted for too long on these new comers, it was now time to return to why she was here, the tournament. She smirked it seemed she had not missed too much and once more her eyes darted between the duelests, catching their movements and attempting to find weakness' and patterns as the moved and faught.

The rapid spinning attack had the advantage of catching her opponent off guard and perhaps, if she was lucky, even knock them into confusion. It was not a method that was often seen. Of course, even one who has spent years practicing such a maneuver can not keep it up forever – eventually they begin to get dizzy.
So it was with Kai, who was already feeling a tad lightheaded from an unfortunate run in with an overly grumpy superior.
As Kallisto charged round to attack from behind, Kaila managed to get her legs into a tangle. The speed with which she had attempted to turn – forced to try and keep the others jaws in views – was enough to send her off balance, and in the moments it took her to sort her four paws out again, Kallisto came crashing down upon her body. The scrape of teeth and claws bought a snarl from the females lips as she went down beneath the unexpected blow.
The silence of withheld breath fell over the Ironesh wolves as they saw one of their own make such a stupid mistake.
The sisters silent scream of mingling panic and anger echoed in the contestants head.

ooc: This is late... and weak... but it's here now
bic: Rhekkaru leaned with an excited grunt as the battle raged on, fascinated by the pure speed of each wolf's attack. Already the childlike joy of sight was fading as the black wolf became tangled in the net of spectators, breath bottled, toes curling anxiously into the stony ground. His charcoal coat proved an excellent solar panel, soaking the angry white sunlight until he felt his flesh would melt right off his bones like wax. His large ears flickered madly to catch the feverish barking of the wolves around him, not realizing that they no longer needed to do the work of two senses. No longer did he view the world through thick, blue-tinged cataracts. New eyes burned from his dusty face, deep red and sparkling like pomegranate seeds. At Rhekkaru's left, the demon he'd stolen them from whipped his snout back and forth blindly, its empty periwinkle gaze no longer as menacing. The demon was invisible on his master's orders, and every few seconds a wolf who had shouldered his way to the front darted for the empty patch of dirt. But each one quickly withdrew, disoriented after smashing into what felt like moving ice. Furious, the demon would snap at its attacker's heels, always missing. Rhekkaru let out a laugh like burnt meat, then went back to watching the tournament. You'll get used to it, friend, he thought sourly in his own language. Why should I let you watch? Look into your own black self, instead- there's more to see, I assure you. "Rip her heart out!" He screamed hoarsely, just for the thrill of it. Rhekkaru didn't care which contestant heard him, or if either of them did.
