Redhawk Caldera shout! for my love

Elwood seemed to appreciate her joke, though he answered sincerely nonetheless, laying her worries to rest. Her eyes followed his movements as he winked and took a few steps backward. Towhee felt anticipation building in her nerves and muscles, stiffening them in preparation for what was to come.

He indicated that he wanted to show her how to block, so Towhee braced herself even more, prepared to field an attack. But her godfather instructed her to come at him instead. Unfazed by this turn of events, she merely bobbed her head, then squared up and bounded forward. Elwood hadn't said where to bite, so she made a split second decision and attempted to snap (close-lipped) at his left ankle.
