 She had won her first round! Granted, the other contender had conceded after successfully landing a hit after a series of misses; it was more than likely the fight would have dragged out longer. The remembrance of the fight still made giggles bubble up from within her, over the silliness of it all. Even with the time that past, Onawa was still radiating with joy and excitement. The Sky Ceremony was really fun! And even if she lost, she wouldn’t have changed a single thing. She would certainly look forward to it next year!
Standing at the rendezvous point for her second round, she was rocking on her paws, eager to begin. She wondered how her next opponent would be like; she certainly wouldn’t mind meeting her last one again. He was super fun!

Xerxes was running late to her next match, something that entirely untypical of her. She'd taken a little too much time enjoying herself after winning her first round. It was such a close round, she had been mentally on edge for a little bit now about her next round. Of course, not enough to prevent her from having some fun. Her maw was plastered with a large smile as she stepped into the arena. Her tail flicking excitedly as she scanned over her opponent. Another original member of the pride, her tattoos were stunning, and she loved every design she was able to see. She envied original members, for their higher understanding of the pride, and their ability to participate in all the pride offered. One day she'd get her tattoos, she just had to earn them.
Snapping back to reality, she smiled giddily at the other female. Who if she was sure, seemed quite familiar to her. She must have seen her in passing at some point. She was extremely good at remembering a face!

The more she sat waiting to see who would go first, the antsier she found herself becoming. It was only slightly nervousness, and more excitement than anything. Her opponent seemed nice enough, a happy little lark just like she was, but one could never be too careful when judging a book by its cover.
As soon as she was given the right to go first, she jumped to her paws in a giddy celebration of glee. Not so much to show off, though she soon realized her ill mannered mistake and snapped back to her senses, offering the female a friendly smile and a dip of the head in wish of good favor.
Just as suddenly as she could, following her gesture Xerxes sped off as fast as her feet could carry her. Hoping to give the female a quick swat on the tail. Nothing meant to harm, she much preferred the 'tag' way of competition.
Still caught up in her own excitement however, she quickly realized she wasn't going to get that swat in. As she approached the female more closely and held out a paw for the swat. A cloud of dust caught her right in the eyes, causing her to wince her eyes shut and veer off her anticipated path.

Oh! She knew this one! Xerxes, right? Onawa really tried to learn the names from her own clan. It was refreshing to see a familiar face, even if they hadn’t really talked. ”This is exciting!” she chirped, once the other had missed. A slight giggle escaped her and she pranced away a bit, hoping to move somewhere where there was less dust.
Once she was satisfied, she charged and swung out her foot. Charging on three feet, however, had her flying forward, past Xerxes, and sprawling on the floor. She nearly ate dirt! Letting out a bark of laughter, she swayed to her feet again. ”We keep missing,” she giggled out.

Xerxes tried to contain her laughter at her opponent's comment. She was glad to see her clan mate was enjoying this bout just as much as she was. And was even more glad when the poor female missed, nearly as badly as she herself had missed just moments ago!
"I don't think that's how we're supposed to win this! What do you think?"
She let out a uproariously silly laugh of her own as she studied the female's movements. She was gonna swat that tail, if it was the last thing she did!
kicking her feet up from under her once more, Xerxes was behind the female nearly as quickly as it would take the other to realize her motive. As she skidded to a halt, her body facing away from the other, she quickly turned and dramatically placed a paw on her opponent's tail. "GOT YA!" She giggled, playfully swatting at the other once more before carrying herself away from the other to give her some space to plan her next attack.

Oh no, how was she supposed to take this seriously?! She could barely keep her balance, her feet drunkenly carrying her around while series of giggles sputtered out of her. Jumping when she felt her tail touched, she whirled around, a large grin splaying across her maw. ”You’re fast!” she hooted, laughing, before prancing back a step and then charging forward.
It was a very forward move, not much strategy behind it except playfully swatting at the other’s toes. Just imagining what their fight must look like from an outsider perspective nearly had her doubling over. Finally, she landed a swat on a foot and grinned triumphantly. ”Got ya back!” she hollered.

Xerxes beamed with pride at her Clansmen who thankfully enjoyed their bout as much as she did. She had always been proud of her speed and agility but to hear another say it, gave her a different feeling. Perhaps it was pride? She'd always been taught not to be too prideful, but sometimes it was OK right?
Apparently not, just as she opened her maw to thank the other, the lightest of touches swept across her paws and she knew she'd been tagged. "Awww man! You're pretty good yourself!" She giggled, swiftly pulling herself away from the other in order to prep her next attack. She had originally planned to swat at the other's paw, but she was a step ahead.
Instead of the aforementioned, the lioness rolled herself onto her belly, and attempted a barrel roll. Her purpose? Somewhat to throw the other off, but also cause it was just too fun to roll around in the dirt with someone else!
Alas, her silly gesture turned out to be a bad move as the lioness was unable to steer herself in just the right direction of the other as she nearly rolled right out of the ring.

Oh gods, her temporary opponent nearly rolled out and away. For a moment, Onawa allowed herself to sit and throw her head back in laughter. ”T-that was s-so silly!” she wheezed out, unable to breath through her roaring humor. Finally, she was able to shake it and, with a grin, dashed at the lioness who was still picking herself up.
She pounced at the lioness and was successful in pushing her paws against the other, attempting to knock her over. Nothing too harsh but she really did need to take her seriously if she was expecting this fight to finally finish. She would have to seek her clansman out after their fight; it was a shame they had barely exchanged words before now, despite being practically family.

The lioness barely had the time to let out a huffy laugh before she found herself being pushed back lightly under the other's weight. She was a bit taken aback by the quick blow, but nothing that would really bother her. Instead she smiled at the lioness before reaching out a leg to regain her balance. If she wanted this fight to be a winner she had to land 2 more hits.
So far her opponent was ahead, but she'd have to fix that quick and in a hurry. Shaking fof the little barrel roll failure she'd suffered the lioness kicked herself off from the ground and was behind her clansmen in a second. There she quickly bonked her on the back with a light pat and cheered for the both of the gleefully.
"This is the most fun i've had in ages!" She mused happy to be back in the fray and holding onto a sliver of chance. She knew her opponent would have t land the next shot to win, she just hoped she'd miss. The idea of wishing a loss on another made the lioness feel bad, but she really, really wanted to win too!

They were neck to neck and yet, Onawa wouldn’t have minded to lose right then and there. Sure, it would be great to win, but just experiencing this would have been enough. Still, she couldn’t help to feel a little bit greedy and curious as to how far she can go.
Distracted in her thoughts, Onawa was brought back to reality when she felt a light swat on her back She let out a happy snort, prancing a few steps. ”We’ve really should have played sooner,” the lioness called out with a grin before ducking her head and charging. She was rather small, even for an Ela, but she was quite pleased with her agility, though the other lioness seemed faster. Regardless, she aimed for the legs and, with a cry of triumphant and joy, landed her third hit. A whoop left her throat and she hopped back. ”That was a blast!” she crowed, panting slightly from the excitement and fight.
She focused her eyes on her opponent, giving her a grin. ”We should really spend more time together! I think we’d be great friends!”

The young lioness couldn't help but agree with the other's sentiment. The two of them DEFINITELY should have played sooner! She was just having too much fun, rolling around in the dirt with someone her own age. Especially someone who seemed to have boundless amounts of energy like she did. She typically found that those she became friends with tended to wind down much quicker than she did. But not this lady, she was right on Xerxes' toes. Sometimes literally!
"I agree, this is so much fun!" She squealed as she received her third and final tag, she had lost the match, but she didn't feel sad in the least. If anything, she felt grateful! It seemed she'd found someone from her own clan that could make a potential friend! She didn't have very many of those within her own pride. As she strode casually away from the match, she found a comfortable spot and lie down in the cool grass on her belly.
"We should DEFINITELY do this again!" She giggled, her tail flicking in excitement. "I like the way you think!" She added, finally having her breaths even out.
"That was a really good match! Congratulations! We HAVE to meet up again before the festival ends!" Grinning ear to ear, and her chest still rising and falling as she caught her breath she stood and bowed to the female once more.
"I'm Xerxes by the way!"

”Yes, definitely!” Onawa agreed happily, grinning. ”Though, since we’re from the same clan, we can also hang out after the festival!” the lioness enthused. The idea of having a friend to have fun with even after the activities was exciting; there was so much they could do when they weren’t limited on time!
”I’m Onawa! Look for me after the tournament! I want to celebrate!” Onawa told her excitedly before rushing off to her next match.
