    Assailant -- Year 226

    QOTY

    "But the dream, the echo, slips from him as quickly as he had found it and as consciousness comes to him (a slap and not the gentle waves of oceanic tides), it dissolves entirely. His muscles relax as the cold claims him again, as the numbness sets in, and when his grey eyes open, there’s nothing but the faint after burn of a dream often trod and never remembered." --Brigade, written by Laura

    Putting his head back in the game, he grinned at the wailing screech of the injured King.  Bingo! The toss of his cumbersome head, landed a blow to his opponents buttocks.  It was something at least.

    He isn't one to celebrate prematurely.  With the scaled stallions forelimbs staked into the ground and beginning to heave hindlimbs into the air, he pulled himself in close to the onslaught of incoming hooves.  The short distance between them should give the kicks minimal strength, along with the injury sustained to the muscles there.

    They strike him mid-chest regardless, and what strength does land causes him to gasp for breath.  His barrel heaves with a few deep inhales.  Even with his wings tight to his sides, the labored breathes are apparent.  The pause in attack, allows the water horse to slip from his reach.  His teeth gritted, as he wished he had been able to rip a chunk of scales from the stallion that had retreated a short distance off.

    Finally he regained air enough to take a staggered step forward.  He shook his lavender crown to refocus his mind. His silver eyes finding the black and pearl figure.  Through the iron shield covering his face, he watched as Ivar limped onward, back facing him.  Never turn your back to your opponent, he thought with a grin creeping along his lips.  

    His hooves gripped into the earth, surging him forwards.  Each stride not without great effort for his shortened breath.  Muzzle was brought to his chest.  His head gear aimed to hit the stallions good side as the King leans to pivot right.  If Ivar was to turn to face him, he'd hope to catch him midway into his turn.  Was he quick enough though?
