Despite this merely being training, when her teeth struck his arm, he felt that they would certainly leave angry purple bruises before the day was through—his body was rattled with them regardless, and felt each wounded area as they toppled into the grass. What startled him, however, was how quickly she adapted to this form. Her hand released his leg and shot towards his groin. Startled, he jerked away roughly and freed himself from her just as she slid from his hands. This sudden move, however, sent him hurtling onto his back.

While he landed hard, he had been trained to take such falls. His elbows shot up and allowed his muscular back to take the brunt of the fall. Almost as suddenly, though, he had rolled back several feet and sprung into a crouch. A grin cut across his face, tousled hair covered in dust and scraps of dead grass. “Good,” he praised. “You know how to exploit weakness.” Signaling that this first lesson was now turning vocal, he shifted his body and stood upright. Bits of his fur stood up at odd angles, and his arm was wet from saliva. “If I was a woman, you would have needed to do something else. Where would you strike then?” Theoretical training, but one of use none the less. Every body shared similar weaknesses that could be exploited; several he knew only because of his medical training.
