Ouroboros Spine Broadcast depth.

shikoba could not really argue with the redhawk, honestly, she was not quite sure what to expect when she had battled with the tartok man, but bloodshed was something she preferred to avoid. while the healing process is going fine, the fight itself has left shikoba more than scarred. it's left her to think, something that can be very dangerous when used too much.

eye contact is never broken as the two stretch and prepare; though towhee springs into action and searches for an immediate grapple for the neck of the native. shikoba acts quickly, intending to sidestep to the best of her ability. should she be successful, she'll find herself only grabbed upon by her shoulder or rib, making it easy for her to turn and try to nip at towhee's ears. 

should the sidestep fail, shikoba will feel teeth against her neck and will try to twist herself free from the hold. while the woman is bigger, shikoba hopes that her smaller size makes it easier for her to escape holds.
