Zjarri wasn't entirely surprised by the lioness' reaction - this was her typical attitude afterall and the blue lioness hadn't forgotten this. "The manners taught by a Mother at birth." A growl followed her words, this was such a foul way to begin the day. Meeting this ungrateful creature first thing was something she planned to avoid as best she could for the rest of her time living.
"Equal? Darling, you aren't even on my level." The words were out before the petite lioness knew what she was saying, oh goodness was she in for a world of hurt. Not that she couldn't defend herself, she was perfectly capable, but she felt certain her opponent wasn't going to make this an easy battle, should it come to that.
Of course the thought wasn't even complete when the words were uttered, a duel. How was it that she got herself into these situations? By this time there were passerby's staring at the pair of them as they got riled up. This would become a show very quickly, and one that shouldn't happen in the middle of a path. There'd be humility today, for one of them, Zjarri hoped that with all of her dreams on the line it wasn't her. This was also why she couldn't back down, not with all her dignity in tact.
"A duel, you mean play time? Bitter, old, hag."
Another growl rumbled in her chest and echoed through clenched jaws. She crouched slightly and lunged, attempting to land a not so steady blow - this left her open to attack, something she hadn't entirely considered.

Silence entered their arena and it was clear that the competitors were focused on the task at hand.
Zjarri took the blow with a grace she didn't know she hadn't - still she winced. The claws certainly connected with the sensitive flesh of her face they dragged across the bridge of her nose and connected with her eye that had luckily closed. She'd be lucky if she came out of this with her sight in both of her eyes at this rate. She pleaded with the gods to not take that away from her, but it was her own battle she had to fight.
On the immediate defensive she coiled her legs and lunged once again, perhaps this would become her key move. Though she only favored it because of the size difference. It seemed a necessary action taken when she was as petite as she was. This time her lunge was much more acceptable in her eyes, making a connection with the other. Claws extended, reaching for the face of the other, if she was going to have scars, so was the other.
The choice became whether to stay in close combat, or move away. Instead of creating a distance between the pair of them she decided to try and do more damage. Her determination raged on after her success, the feeling of being in a true fight, no matter her inexperience, was incredible. All of her training was preparing her for these moments, moments like these to try and make her lineage a proud one.

How. How was it possible that she was coming out on top? The astounded lioness welcomed the distance between the pair of them, especially with how close the green paw came to colliding for another blow.
It was in the moments where the well matched could breathe that Zjarri first took notice. Thinking it had been blood clouding her vision at first she suddenly realized that her right eye had actually become blurry and agitated. No. No. No. The blue lioness felt her blood boil, this was not part of her plan, the plan that would make her entire life worth something, at least in her eyes.
She had been to reckless before, not again. Zjarri's good eye was glued to the green lioness, it stared with attempts of burning into her very soul. The damage caused was about to change this fight.
Fueled by the pain, anger and distress of having lost her sight she lowered herself and snarled, this was something deep, dangerous, and threatening - not her previous attempts at being frightening. This was purely crazed. Something she was sure the green lioness could relate to. "You." The word came out as a growl, again - deep and dangerous. This meant war, one she was suddenly very sure she could win.
Using her size to her advantage she darted forward towards her opponent. She aimed directly for the legs as an attempt to knock her opponent to the ground. She'd finish this with Curare on her back, hopefully realizing that Zjarri wasn't a fool or weak. Though, had Zjarri taken even a moment to think about any of this she likely would have attempted away, but that was why she let instinct take over.

Adrenaline had still been pumping through her veins when she forced her paw from the others throat. Kind words rang from her opponents mouth, perhaps the first she had ever heard from her. The moment was so surreal.
Zjarri was staring at the lioness in almost disbelief, but wiped it from her face and kept any rude comments to herself. This a change for the better, something she could live with. The pair of them were bloodied up and done a fine task of pummeling one another. She wouldn't forget this.
"You are as well." She gave the other a warm smile. It was obviously a life changing moment for the other, one she was proud to have been involved with. "It's nice to finally speak with you Curare." The remark was meant to express a true happiness for finally just speaking with the green lioness, learning her name was a bonus. Something she hadn't expected in the slightest.
"Let's get cleaned up, perhaps we can talk more another time, perhaps even discuss future vikings."
Having said their goodbyes the blue lioness, staggering, began her walk away. Feeling weak, yet empowered at the same time. Her muscles seemed ready to give out on her, but her own pride gave her the strength to continue standing until she could get to her wounds. There was also that eye to deal with...
