MAXENCE
LOOKING UP FOR HEAVEN

In no time at all the field had become hot and heavy, the tension of each muscle seeming to radiate outwards into the evolving mess of upturned ground and bloodied tufts of grass. Perhaps it was the flood of blood that stirred a peculiar kind of hiraeth within the warrior, his lips switching into a dickened and brooding smirk - But in his chaos there was calculation, and as his bullwhip coiled around the outstretched limb of the regent, it seemed his plan was falling into place like dominoes. 

Now clearly in his element, Maxence allowed the helm of his whip to fall from his mouth as soon as he noticed his rival taking advantage of it's pull. To say he was not impressed with how she had schooled sich a vicious move to her bidding would be a dead, cold lie, though it did frustrate him at how sharp and gods-damned nimble she was on the field. Where he excelled in strength and tactics, Avdotya seemed to be able to run circles around him simply by taking every opportunity that sprung to light. If he had found er strength, had he then found her weakness? Could she be fooled as easily as she could take an opponent's lash and use it as her own? It was a spar after all, so Maxence intended on testing this.

The cheetah landed, and much too close to comfort, though still Maxence was intent on finding her flaw. The commander lay in wait, practically baiting her as she ducked before him and seemingly prepared to barrel her hind legs in his direction. Maxence, luckily, had anticipated something of the sort.
Striding once to his left and turning his own hind end in a sweeping motion to the left, Maxence rose up briefly and outstretched his two front limbs, allowing his rival to strike toward his former location barely a yard away from where he had dodged to. Forcing his legs down, Maxence waited to hear the thwack and crack of bone against bone as he sought to block her attack by slamming her offending hind legs back to the soil with his own, aiming for the soft bones that lay behind each canon. 
There was no winner yet. 





Summary: Maxie tries his best to anticipate avdotyas moves and dodges, then BLOCKS her kick attack by basically whacking her kicking legs, so ATTACKS at the same time!
