Two Rivers Isle Tag, you're it

A glimmer of confidence shot through his body as his fangs made contact with her ruff, his breath fast and rapid as he held on. Though his grasp was soon broken as Aeronwyn rolled onto her side and aimed a kick at his flank. Yet her aim was slightly off and the agouti yearling released his jaws from her neck as he retreated, allowing her paw to skim his leg lightly as he returned to stand a little way away from the other. He was excused, his tongue a stretched muscle as he sank to the floor, his hide heaving as he once again paused to catch his breath.

Admiration flared as the silver wraith emerged to stand on her paws almost seamlessly and he flashed her a quick smile, his flanks still heaving as he splayed his front legs before him. "Thanks," he buffed the ground with his tail as her praise invited a surge of pride to trill through his veins. "It was all down to you though," he added, gratitude making his voice crack as his tired gaze met those of the other, "If you hadn't shown me those moves, I'd probably be sprawled on the ground after another failed spar." At least this time he hadn't ended up flat under his opponents weight; he counted that as a great achievement.
