The red firekin born and bred male stood proudly, paws spread out, chest puffed out and his head held high as he scanned the area for his challenger. Their previous battle had not ended well, in fact she had stormed off because of his words, though he still didn't understand what he had said to upset her. When it came to people skills, Xipil had none.
He was a brilliant lion, his knowledge was vast and ever growing and yet he knew nothing. Not when it came to the feelings of another. "Mii'ah!" he roared growing impatient. He hated waiting or relying on others, and he no longer felt like waiting.
He had a schedule to keep to and for him, the green eyed cat's time was running up. "I'm tired of waiting, you wanted a rematch and I am giving you one," he called as she came up over the horizon. "Stop wasting my time."

Move One: Hit
Mii'ah was growing tired of Xipil's impatient attitude and his 'holier-than-thou' attitude as well. A scowl decorated her features as she trotted across the sand quickly. Though at his words she paused, eyes narrowed, and she spat on the ground. "You'll be eating those words soon," she stated coolly flicking her tail behind her.
"Your arrogance will be your downfall," she stated plainly as she closed the remaining distance between them.
She stopped only a few feet away from him and met his gaze evenly. "You have grown cocky, it is a weakness," she told him flatly and when he opened his mouth to speak she lunged at him, claws extended swiping at his face.
She wasn't playing around, she was going to teach him a lesson. Unlike Xipil, Mii'ah was here to prove her worth, she would not suffer defeat again.

Move: Miss
A snarl rumbled from deep within the red cat’s through as his opponent’s claws swiped across his face leaving deep gashes in his cheeks. He was surprised initially by her ability to land a hit from the get go but then his surprise shifted in to irritation, he couldn’t believe that he had let his guard down enough for her to attack him.
Cursing internally he snapped his teeth at her, blue eyes watching as she jerked back. He was testing her, seeing how far she had come from their previous duel. It appeared that she had been learning, training. He slid back a couple of feet before he lunged at her.

Mii’ah easily slid out of Xipil’s way as he lunged blindly, a smirk slid across her lips as she circled him, emerald eyes never leaving his form. She was running on a high from the success of her first attack and it resulted in her reacting poorly. She seemingly danced forward, darting in and out almost playfully before she fell back dropping low into the sand, sinking in a bit to stare at him.
Without hesitation she jumped up and threw herself at him blindly. Not the best move she could have made.

He watched as she, in his opinion, pathetically threw herself at him and as easily she had, he side stepped her allowing her to crash into the sand. He snorted and shook his head, his dark maned swishing back and forth as it settled across his face.
"Is that all you have? Because I must say that I am disappointed." Not really, he hadn't been expecting much from this rogue after their last duel. "No wait, I'm not. I expected as much," he taunted cruelly without intention. The words just flowed from his lips with ease, he hadn't though twice about what he was saying.
"Let's end this," he stated easily lashing out at her.

She scowled at him but said nothing in response. She wasn't going to give him the satisfaction of hearing her reply. Instead she focused her energy upon avoiding his swipe. She ducked low, pressing her chest to the sand and his paw sailed over her head. A smirk crossed her maw as she peered up at him from beneath.
At that moment she lifted her head, jerking upwards intent on hitting his chin with her head. Unfortunately he jerked backwards and she stumbled.

Move: Hit
His teeth clenched as his paw hit nothing but air. He shook his head, stepping back as she tried to slam her head into his chin. "Too slow," he scolded clicking his tongue against the roof of his mouth. So far she was disappointing him. "Has your last defeat taught you nothing?" He asked sincerely, for the first time in their conversation he hadn't sounded condescending. Was he beginning to actually care about this red pelted rogue?
He shook his head, no. "Then I will teach you," he stated running forward and slamming his shoulder into her throat. He could hear her gasp sharply, in pain as he forced her back and on to her rear.

She gasped sharply as Xipil forced his shoulder into her throat, jamming it and leaving her gasping like a fish out of water as she struggled to get air into her lungs and for her throat to stop throbbing. Her paw gingerly reached up and touched her throat as she stared at him, the fire within her burning brightly.
She said nothing as she dropped her paw and swallowed, painfully, determination lighting her eyes. Her claws extended and she dug them deep in the sand leaving pretty little imprints before she darted forward bearing her teeth and snapping them at him, trying to dig her teeth into his shoulder.

Move: Hit
Xipil clucked his tongue on the roof of his mouth and shook his head. He was disappointed, she continued to charge at him head on. Had she not realized that her strategy was flawed and would not work? She was letting her anger at him cloud her judgment and it disappointed him.
As she charged at him, attempting to get revenge on his shoulder for the attack on her throat he lashed out, paw connecting with her shoulder as he basically slapped her away from him. "You cannot keep doing the same thing over and over again. It isn't working," he stated coolly, blue eyes staring at her in sympathy.

"Stop pitying me!" She shrieked at him kicking up at with her hind-legs. His blow had knocked her on her side and she was please to find her paws connecting with his face. He had gotten too close to her and his actions paid it's price. She watched as his head flew back, towards the side and his body following it.
She took the opportunity to pull herself to her paws and flicked her tail behind her as she waited for him to react. "How's that for predictability?" She sneered.

Move: Bide
His reaction to her attack was surprising, he was smiling at her as her paws connected with his face, forcing his head to whip back and for his body to follow it. He could see the confusion in her features as he waited for her to follow up, he was biding his time and allowing her to continue without consequence. He was, at this point, trying to help her learn.
"This battle is over, you have lost," he stated plainly and the distraught expression that covered her face stated that it was true. "You, with the damage I inflicted to your throat, which was rather severe judging upon the way your voice sounds, are no longer in a condition to fight," his tone was soft and it nearly sounded like he felt sorry for her.
"Accept defeat and realize there will be another duel," it was a promise. "You will have another chance."

Duel Status: Loss
"No!" She shrieked her voice coming out scratchy and shrill. She felt as though there was sandpaper rubbing the inside of her throat every time she spoke. She knew he was right but she refused to accept it. "I'm not done with this!" Her words came out staggered with pauses in between words as she was forced to swallow painfully in hopes that it would sooth her tone and her throat.
The look on her opponents face was one of determination and solidity, the battle had been fought and she had lost. She looked as though she was going to cry but he moved forward and butt his head against her shoulder in as comforting of a gesture as possible. "Fine. This isn't over," she stated bitterly pulling away from him quickly before turning tail and fleeing.
She hated the feeling of humiliation when she not only lost but seemed to gain the pity of her competitor. That wasn't what she wanted.

Duel Status: Won
He watched almost sadly as she bitterly tried to argue with him, to deny that their duel had come to an end and that she had lost. His attempt at comforting, something he had never been good at, had failed as she basically pushed him away and ran off. He shook his head letting out a soft sigh as he too turned away from the site of their fight and began to retreat back the way he had come.
It was time for his training and he was determined to attend it.
He was proud of his win to loss ratio and had every intention to keep it the way it was. He liked the fact that he hardly lost yet at the same time he pitied the female because it was clear that all she sought was to be accepted and show that she wasn't just a weak outsider with no potential.
The truth was, she had too much potential.
