Imperia They'll call our crimes a work of art

Imperia scowled as the lioness dodged his attack. He quickly turned to face her again and waited for what she would do next. When nothing happened, he grinned. "Looks like your spell failed. Ha! Fine by me." He lashed out at her, hoping to rake his claws across her face. He had to win this battle, and he would do anything to make sure he would. Even if he didn't actually do anything with the chrysali, he still had to win. He was tired of losing so many battles. It did nothing to help his dignity. He needed to start winning every battle. Including this one.

Round: 3/7
Attack: scratch her!
Defense: none
Injuries: burnt paws

"Listen to me."

@Makyna wow this is sooo late omg i'm sorry--

The lioness snarled at her assailant, a wordless display of the displeasure she felt at his presence and words. Her aquamarine gaze burned with an inner fire as the creature tried to rake his claws across her but thinking fast she managed to dodge out of the way. Deciding to throw caution to the wind the lioness decided to close with the caracal. Her greater bulk was her greatest asset here and she would use it to her advantage and damn the consequences. With a savage roar she rushed at the cat, one paw raised upwards as she attempted to swat at the other feline. Claws were bared as she brought it in a downwards swipe in hopes of slashing the cat and swiping him away.

Imperia They'll call our crimes a work of art

Imperia growled when the lioness dodged. He had to injure her somehow! Burning wasn't enough. He glared at her. The next thing he knew, he saw a paw coming down on him and he was knocked down. It wasn't too bad, and he was able to get up quickly. This was starting to get annoying. He could feel blood starting to drip from a scratch near his ear. It trickled down the side of his face and landed on the floor below.

Imperia tried to swipe her again, his claws out as well. She had to stop dodging his attacks! This had to work.

Round: 4/7

This battle was starting to get very bad. Nassir watched as the lioness seemed to attempt a spell, but fail. The caracal mocked her for that. He watched with rapt attention as the battle progressed. He wondered how this would end. Who would win? He didn't know who he wanted to win. by the looks of things, probably the lioness, but he wasn't sure. He sighed.

Her blow landed, knocking the little cat right off of his feet but in an instant he was back up on his paws, eliciting a snarl from the lioness. The next thing she new the cat was swiping at her. The lioness tried to duck out of the way but this time she wasn't as lucky and the caracal's claws caught her across the chest. The sharp points of the weapons opened up a livid wound on the cream form. Not just any wound but the one that Leon had given her in days of old. The old, hardly-visible scar was re-opened and it felt nearly the same as when it had initially happened.

However, she wasn't about to let this transgression go unpunished. With all caution to the wind she lunged with jaws agape as she attempted to grab the smaller cat by the neck in a vice grip of fangs. If she got a hold to the caracal she would hold the creature and dig her teeth in to hopefully do damage and scare the creature off.

Imperia grinned in satisfaction when his claws struck her chest. Even better, he had reopened an old wound. That was bound to hurt. He was still thinking about his satisfaction when the next thing he knew, she was lunging at him. He let out a growl before her jaws closed around his neck. Panic flashed through him.

It wasn't a very strong grip. Perhaps if he did a spell, it would make her let go? He had to act quick. And if it didn't work...He'd deal with that if it happened. He quickly began to focus on his magic, willing it to work. It did, much to his relief. He felt his fur and skin begin to burn.

Round: 5/7
Attack: burn her!

@Makyna see i told you i'd post--

Fangs sank into the caracal's neck in a hold that was far weaker than she would have liked. Still she held for as long as she could, a growl rising in her throat as she attempted to do as much damage as possible. However, all was for not when the caracal's fur began to smoke and stink. With her close proximity the acrid smell was absolutely atrocious, not to mention it was starting to gag her so with a flick of her head and a surge of her magicka the lioness attempted to throw the caracal away very hard.

Imperia grinned as his fur began to smoke, right into the lionesses mouth. His smile quickly disappeared as he was suddenly forcefully thrown. This was unlike any other spell she had done-this one had worked, and it had worked well. With a grunt, he was thrown against a nearby tree. His side slammed against it, including one of his paws. It hurt more than anything he had ever encountered, but he ignored the pain, shoving it aside. He had to finish this battle!

Noticeably limping, he got up, glaring at the lioness. He slowly raised his head, trying to judge what he should do next. Physical combat was pretty much out of the question. There's no way he could do a good jump like this, and he definitely can't slash at her. A bite might work, but he'd never get close quickly enough for that. So he was left with spells. He could work with that.

He slowly got closer, eyes narrowed, one paw slightly raised off the ground. "You're going to pay for that," he scowled. He took a deep breath, preparing himself.

Round: 6/7
Attack: burn her again
Defense: none
Injuries: burnt paws, scratch near left ear, aching side, probably broken paw

@Makyna

The lioness felt a bit of satisfaction as her opponent flew from her mouth and crashed into a nearby tree. She didn't gloat though, didn't say a thing as the caracal once more to his feet and faced her. Eyes narrowed as they focused on the feline before her and then claws unsheathed as she saw the other do... something. He was a fire elemental user so that something was probably some sort of heated attack. Not wanting to stick around she attempted to dodge around it but ultimately failed when she felt heat against her side, toasting it ans singing fur and flesh alike. It wasn't a bad burn but it would be sore for a while.

The lioness' attempt to dodge around the attack had failed and while she could rush in again she chose not to. Instead she ran and finally leaped, standing atop her tree root with the chrysali. There she crouched while her blue eyes remained locked onto the caracal. Even if the cat threw himself at her again she would not be moved.

With the lioness getting burned, and instead of attempting to attack, Imperia watched as she instead stood atop the tree root, near the chrysali. Oh, she was trying to protect them, wasn't she? Hmmph. No need for that, really.This wasn't about the chrysali anymore. He was only continuing this battle to prove himself. He wasn't even sure if he'd win.

Well, he felt as though he only had one attack left. One chance to win this. What could he do? Attempting to lunge at her certainly wouldn't work. She seemed like she wouldn't budge. "You know, that's really quite unnecessary. I don't even care about the stupid chrysali. I stopped caring a while ago. I don't need others to help train my own. I can do that myself."

He had to do something, though. Lunging wouldn't do any good, so he may as well do a spell. This battle was just about over, and both seemed to know it. Nothing he could do would really change that. So he may as well try to appear threatening, useless as it may be. Heat soon began to emanate from his paws. It did nothing to help what was probably a broken paw, but it's not like he had much of a choice.

Round: 7/7
Attack: make your paws burn bc you're hardcore
Defense: none
Injuries: burnt paws, scratch near left ear, aching side, probable broken paw
