Claws and Fists (FlowyWolf)

[Saber-Five]

Taaka was proving to be a challenge for the ex-slave. Meeta grunted upon being struck in the back then being slammed to the ground on her face. It left her bruised and bleeding from the nose and mouth. More importantly Meeta was rendered utterly dazed, turning the tide of the fight over to Taaka's favor for the time being.

[FlowyWolf]

With her hand still on Meeta's head, Taaka finally took a deep breath.
She was exhausted, her nose was bleeding and so her forehead, all her beautiful, soft fur was now smudged by her own blood. She stared at the woman for an instant, torn between hatred and respect. Taaka's first impression was right, she really proved to be a tough nut.   

Rising his eyes for a moment, the feline woman finally saw what had distracted the woman, and she couldn't avoid smiling, amused by that twist of fate.
If it wasn't for that little, useless mouse, probably the outcome of the fight would have been different.

However, it was still too early to claim victory, she had to stay focus, Meeta could recover at any time.
Therefore, Taaka gritted her teeth and jumped onto Meeta's back, trying to grab the woman's neck and choke her.

[Saber-Five]

Meeta felt her opponent's weight crashing unto her back with a painful cry that followed swifty. Then the feline grasping her neck with both hands. Thinking fast, Meeta rolled until she and Taaka reverse positions from bottom to top. Without hesistation she slammed her left elbow into Taaka's ribs, to force her to let go.

Once that succeeded, Meeta got off of her as fast as possible. Falling back a few feet away, Meeta panting heavily and turned around and began circle around Taaka like a predator. She felt brusied all over and fatigued but Meeta refused to back down now.

"Is that all you got cat?" Meeta asked mockingly.

[FlowyWolf]

Once again, Taaka had underestimated her rival, and the pain she felt in her ribs was a strong proof of it.
Luckily, the woman used that chance to just put some distance between them and turn the fight in her favour.

But when the feline woman heard those outrageous words, she smiled amused at the woman.
She had guts, Taaka had no doubts about it. But one more thing she was pretty sure about: her confidence was going to be erased by Taaka's claws.

"That's just the beginning, furless..." as she spoke, her feline legs sprang quickly toward Meeta, her sharpen claws pushed out toward the woman's cheek.

[Saber-Five]

Taaka's claws reached their target. Meeta shrieked in reaction the sharp nails slashed at her cheek.

Moments later however, she avenged herself with an attack of her own. She proceeded to fire off a fast yet brutal punches toward Taaka, aiming for the gut area.

[FlowyWolf]

Even if happy to see the blood slipping onto his claws, she didn't get too confident as she did before.
Taaka, in fact, saw the woman's punch running toward her guts; this time, however, she wouldn't be as unprepared as before.

Therefore, crouching and turning so that the punch would have hit her belly, she grabbed Meeta's hand right after the hit and, falling to the ground while trying not to think about the pain she felt in her stomach, she tried to throw down her rival and slam her again to the ground, helping herself with a ferocious shout.

[Saber-Five]

The feline was indeed able to grab the former slave. Meeta gritted her teeth upon slammed back into the ground. It was becoming more clear to her that Taaka was a force to be reckon to be with. Now the human laid trapped beneath the cat-like woman, trying to catch her breath.

[FlowyWolf]

Her attack had been successful, she finally got again control over the former slave, gaining another chance to finally close the deal.

Therefore, trying not to waste even that chance, Taaka charged back his head, sinking his claws in Meeta's flesh and readying his best shot.

[Saber-Five]

Once more Meeta can the claws pierce her skin. She moan out in reaction while struggling to break of the pin Taaka had her in. In the back of her mind though, Meeta couldn't help but be somewhat pleased to be fighting such a worthy and fearsome opponent.

[FlowyWolf]

Managing not to let the woman free herself from the pin, Taaka hit with her head-butt, even if she didn't succeed in hitting with all her strength. She was tired, Meeta was fighting really well and was pushing her to the limit, and even if she was enjoying that struggle more than ever, her energies were almost gone.

Maybe distracted from the disappoint of her weak blow, or maybe just because of her exhaustion, Taaka didn't keep on attacking the woman, but she just stared her amber eyes in excitement, letting her guard down, as if, deep inside her, she wanted that fight to never end.
