The Wolf wants to counterattack, to slash at wrists and arms, to cut and spill blood and howl, kill, keep killing -

That's not how Ryja's opponent moves. The backs of their wrists make contact with hers in deflecting parries, striking with more force than their tiny body should contain. Each hit tells a story of lean muscle and patient training; worse, training against exactly this type of aggressive style. One exchange to halt the aggression, two to get their bearings -

The third ends in an elbow strike, stepping into Ryja and slamming into her sternum in a blow meant to knock the wind out of her. A surgeon couldn't hit the triangle of bone just under and between her breasts so cleanly.

Jean takes the momentum, kicking at the rabbit's ankle. The Wolf wants to pounce and tear her throat out with teeth, but Jean?

Jean is after the ground-and-pound.
