Move 1: Miss
Ud watched the female across from him for a few moments, sizing up his competition. Once again he found himself against an older opponent - although not as old as last time - but the large differences were her rank and her gender. Ud knew females were just as capable as males within the Firekin, that manes or no manes didn't a fighter make. She was a Soldier - well, Corporal now, but that was as new as his own title - so he knew this would be a tough battle, and he had also been informed that although she had lost her battle to another lioness, it had gone into extra rounds to determine a winner. She was a tough one, this lioness, and he knew not to underestimate her.
"Good luck, Corporal," he said with a half smile before deciding to start things off with a move rather than waiting. He bounded in and lifted a paw to swipe, but he misjudged the distance and fell a bit short of hitting his mark.

Move 1: Glancing Attack Total: 2 Alya had a mix of feelings about the present moment. Did she feel some embarrassment about coming back for the second round of the tournament after having lost the first? Admittedly so. Regardless of how well she fought, she had still lost. At the same time, she must have done something right to be back here. The grey lioness had these thoughts as she moved into the battlefield. When her eyes rested on her opponent, however, she recognized the need to put them behind her and put her efforts here instead. It's what a higher ranking officer would do, after all.
Golden eyes looked her opponent over. Ud, who had proven his worth in the regent's game. Who had gone to defeat Corporal Azar'bijan. Who had notable achievements to his name despite the fact that his mane had only just filled out. While she felt that none of her fellow Firekin were opponents to be taken lightly, it seemed like her opponent this round was to be taken especially seriously.
The lioness returned no words as Ud spoke, though her lips curled ever so slightly as he addressed her, showing fang as he lunged. He had misjudged, and Alya would use as much of that to her advantage as she possibly could. The older lioness moved forwards to meet him, a paw swiping out at the side of his face in hopes to make contact before he could recover.

Move 3: Hit Total: 7
Ud knew he had the favor of one of the Regents, but that only did so much. He was still growing despite being an official adult, still learning, and didn't have the years of actual experience many of the other lions in this competition had. But he did have his drive and his quick mind which he knew would be his best asset in this battle. Alya was clearly more muscled than he was, even if he stood just a bit taller, but using his momentum to his advantage had helped send her return attack wide.
He knew she was a soldier and that they were tough and could take a few hits without flinching. Guards were different in that they dodged rather than rolling with the punches. But Ud wasn't a Guard any longer. He was a Corporal now and he had to think outside of the box he had started in. Rather than allowing any time between Alya's swipe, Ud crowded her space once again. This time, instead of aiming to knock her back, he let one white toed paw rise from the ground to deliver a sharp hit to her jaw. No claws were to be used in this battle, but getting a few bruises and aches was expected.

Move 4: Hit Total: 10
Ud saw in the moments before the retaliation that he shouldn't have kept such close quarters. This lioness was a fighter, after all, and she knew her craft. Although he was a bit larger than she, Alya knew her strength and how to use his own against him. He felt a strong shoulder ram into his chest, pushing him back as his paws fought for purchase. That wasn't the blow that caught his attention, though - it was the headbutt under his jaw in the same place he had hit her with his paw.
Seeing stars for a moment, Ud drew back to shake his vision clear. "Well, that's a new one," he muttered to himself, golden eyes bright with interest. He'd have to remember that for later. As it was, he had a few feet between himself and Alya now, and he took a moment to assess the situation.
A short moment later and he was in motion again, this time sticking true to his Guard training. He darted forward but dug his paws into the sand at the last moment, changing his direction from a head on attack to suddenly charging passed the lioness. As he moved rammed his shoulder into her ribs to toss her off-guard before continuing by her, hoping to dart out of range.

Ud slowed his movements as Alya spoke, his ears trained forward to catch every word. She was conceding and giving him the victory, the opportunity to move on and prove himself further. He lifted his head high, pride and delight swelling in his chest. He hadn't expected to come this far, but now that there were two older lions 'cheering' him on, so to speak, he felt as if he had their skills and desire pushing him on as well. He had learned a new type of attack in this battle, after all!
"Your expectations will be met, Corporal," he said with a smile of his own, bowing his head in farewell. "Thank you for the experience." With that he turned to head off of the battling sands, eager to perfect this new attack before the next battle.
oo DeD Fin! And yussss I would be biggrin
