Apollo had followed Dakota and now sat at the edge of the arena. If she needed him, he'd be there at her side. He watched the dogs step forward and got ready to strike if need be. He wasn't going to let anything happen to her. He looked the three dogs up and down intently. They were a lethal group. He had a feeling he'd need to step in some time, but just to talk to the leader. He wasn't going to blow it now.

Dakota turned her head to see Apollo watching her. Nodding to him she held in a smile so she wouldnt seem weak to the dogs and turned back to her opponents. The leader sat down and barked. "Begin!" All at once the three dogs charged at her like a pack of wolves. Crouching Dakota jumped over the smallest one and found herself get caught by it's paw. "you must be the brainiac." She barked and turned around to face him. It was a black and white border collie. growling Dakota charged at it and when it dodged her attack she turned quickly and hit the strongest dog, a mastiff on its side then jumped back.
Apollo snarled silently as he watched the dogs lunging at Dakota. He padded down toward the leader calmly. The leader looked up and saw him. Apollo dipped his head submissively. "Hello, sir," he said. "I was wondering if you might let me go in and fight with her," he suggested. He was almost certain it wouldn't work, but maybe...

Dakota's attention flashed to leader seeing him snarl at Apollo. At that same moment a large paw smaked her in the face. Growling she shook her head and snapped at the border collie. As if with luck she grabbed the border collies leg right when it was about to back off and she bit with all the anger she had for the leader. The border collie yiped and barked in distress but she held on until she heard the black and white dogs leg snap. The border collie wailed and ran off leaving only two. With blood on her teeth Dakota snarled and stared at the dogs before her. The Mastiff grinned at her seeing the strength she had but the other dog a greyhound moved his paws nervously. "Your next." She barked and jumped at the greyhound but was headbutted by the mastiff as he stood in front of her making her fly backwards.
Gizmo snickered with the leader who was intent in daydreaming about mating with Darkota. Her beautiful body beneth his and of course he would mate with Arina too. He couldn't think of anything more prefect.
Dakota moaned and stood up her legs wobbling. Turning to the mastiff she growled and taunted him. "That all you you got?" She barked and crouched when the mastiff ran toward her. "Come on you big lump!" She growled and watched him come at her with full speed mouth open and eyes burning with rage. At the right time Dakota jumped to the left and let the mastiff hit the wall of the arena. Turning as quickly as she had jumped she grabbed him by his back leg and pulled so it popped out of place. The mastiff wailed and hit the wall falling unconsious. Not wanting to lose her momentum Dakota ran toward the greyhound and snapped at it but he quickly dodged and ran in circles around her. Watching his movements Dakota took a few paces back ran forward to slide her body making the greyhound trip and fall to the ground. Getting up quickly Dakota grabbed his tail and swung in circles making him spin in the air yipping and barking. Spinning even faster Dakota gave one last pull and threw the Greyhound making it fall right on top of the wall of the arena. Panting she barked in triumph and turned to the leader. "I win!" She barked and began walking toward him until two large paws pinned her to the ground. Yipping in shock she struggled and looked around. The mastiff hadnt really been knocked out he was smarter then he looked! Growling she felt herself being picked up by his massive jaws.
The leader grinned. The mastiff was actually quite smart yet he always acted stupid to get that edge on his foes. Darkota would soon be his! He licked his lips, his body tense with hidden pleausure.
Dakota barked furiously and struggled in the mastiffs grip as he pranced around the ring humilating her. Stopping in the middle of the arena he spun her around like she had done the grey hound and let her go slamming her into one of the walls. Dakota fell to the ground and blinked as her head spun. The mastiff began walking toward her as the doberman got up and wobbled alittle. Running away from the big dog she ketp dodging him as he chased her around trying to bite her. Trying to think of something she turned around and faced him. "Imnot going to lose!" She barked and jumped up in the air as he kept running in the same direction. Landing behind him she leapt at the mastiff and bit down on his back grabbing him on the sides with her paws. The mastiff growled and spun around in circles trying to throw her off but she held on with all her strength.
The leader gave out an annoyed scowl as Darkota fought back he nudged Gizmo and signalled with his ears. Gizmo nodded in obediance and slyly stuck his foot out to trip her over and succeded. He quickly fell back in to the crowd. This move had been seconds and he knew the she-dog wouldn't know how she had tripped and lost her grip. The mastiff knew what had happened and chucked the she-dog to the ground, now she had lost her grip. He pinned her down placing his massive paw on her neck, blocking her airway...
