Aka laughed. The bird really was a talk and no fight. Just as he had expected. She stood there as he held on to her throat, his talons prepared to squeeze. But he didn't. Aka let go and let himself flutter to the ground in front of the bird.
"Scared of your first real fight? Afraid that you'll lose? ha!" Aka laughed in the goose's face, bringing one talon up to her neck and sliding it across gently.
"It would be soooo easy to kill you, what with you standing here all peaceful. Some terror you are."

@Blackberry
In an instant, Aka regretted what he had done, feeling a sharp pain in his soft underbelly. He looked down to a nice gash in his stomach, blood staining the white feathers. He groaned in pain, but he wouldn't give up.
The bird reached down and grabbed a spike on the back of Blackberry's head and tried to pull her away, though his strength had faded a considerable amount. He didn't dare look down, though he felt something soft slide down his belly, and a sickening plop as whatever it was, he didn't want to guess, hit the ground.
Aka glared at the goose, his beak open slightly as he fought back cries of agony. She was a fighter, and a talker.
Round: 3
Attempt: Pull Blackberry away
Defense: None
Injuries: Gash in stomach
@Blackberry
Aka wasn't sure what he expected next. The bird to let him go and nurse his wounds, if that was even possible, or if he expected pity. He wasn't even sure if it was a dream. But the next think Aka knew, sharp teeth closed around his feathery throat, and it pulled away.
He felt his flesh tear open, and his organs tightened as they were ripped through the opening in his throat. Aka gave off a weak laugh, or what was supposed to be one. It came out more like a gurgled cry of pain covered in some dark twisted humor. He looked down, his beautiful, once pristine white feathers now bloodstained, almost like a strangely deformed exotic bird.
Aka tried to speak, tried to give off one last smart remark, one last taunt, but he couldn't. The owl focused on his gem, drawing as little power as he could to turn himself the red of his blood-stained feathers, some part of his mind thinking perhaps if he turned red, the goose would think he was blood and lifeless flesh and leave him be.
Round: 4
Attempt: Camouflage for defense
Defense: Red birb, like his blood
Injuries: Gash in the stomach, throat torn out.
@Blackberry
Aka heard maniacal laughter as he fell on his back, too weak to even stand. He felt the world begin to fade, the laughter growing quieter and quieter, his mutilated body going numb. As the murderous goose came closer, the owl outstretched a single talon, his gem talon, to try to scratch a wound into the goose. But before he could get halfway to her body, his body shuddered and he grew still. His eyes rolled into the back of his head, though no one could tell.
Aka felt his conscious fade into nothingness, his being and sentience die. His gem faded slowly, its life force fading until the blue sapphire flickered a deep purple, a mix of the maroon of his magick, and the dark shade of his gem. He grew entirely still, blood flow ending.
Long live the king. (fade to death)
