Typhon listened to the harsh laughter with the same fierce, determined expression he had held when he challenged her. She repeated what he had said, essentially, which irked him; he had already challenged her, and she was trying to take the challenge and pretend it was up to her to issue it. But he let the irritation fade away; the time for speaking was over, and it was time for him to prove himself, here, in front of everyone, against the unworthy alpha of Valyn. She was smaller than him, and thus would likely be faster, but he had bulk and, in his mind ferocity on his side. There was little doubt within him, not because he was full of himself but because the Agoge had honed him into a fighter--that had been the point, after all. It was here on the island that he had first learned hardship, and he would channel that in order to defeat this female.
"Perhaps you should have better taken care of your precious lands and pack, if you did not wish harm to come to them," he seethed, baring his teeth with no hint of a grin on his face any longer. She had, in her negligence, allowed this danger to come to her lands, and he would show her what sort of damage he could do. With a practiced, steady paw Typhon turned his body broad-side to Valeria, his head focused entirely upon her as everything in the background faded from his conscious mind. The cavern was empty except for her, as far as he was concerned; the numerous wolves around them did not concern him. This was a fair fight, as fair as it could be between such a pathetic wolf and himself, and Ty was ready for it.
You will defeat her, my child, purred the voice in his head, confidence flowing through the words and down the wolf's spine. She is dirt beneath your paws. Dust in the wind, when you've finished with her. Strike quickly, directly, and give her no mercy. As he moved slowly closer to the female, possible scenarios ran through his mind. It was possible that she would strike first, if he did not move quickly, and she likely would go for one of his legs or his back end, hoping to avoid his teeth. She could feint one direction, cause him to turn, and then attack in another. There were endless options, but not endless seconds, and so he struck.
Powerful haunches propelled him forward, his immense body kept low to the ground as he flew toward the female like a bullet. His green eyes were fixed upon her, ready to redirect if she moved out of the way, but his gaping jaws were aimed at her left hind hock, a weak point that, if his hit landed, would do much to incapacitate her. With the adrenaline she was no doubt feeling, it would not render the female immobile, but it would be damaging all the same. Just before his jaws closed, Typhon closed his eyes for only a few seconds--protecting them if she lashed out at his unprotected face--and as soon as his teeth clamped shut he was darting away again, eyes open once more, hoping to put enough distance between them so that she would need to leap forward in order to damage him.
