Luke couldn’t believe his ears. Between what Jaii said and Sam he was ready to explode. “Shut up, Sam, this is between me and Jaii,” he snapped, not sure what else he could say to him. He didn’t want to wait until he was outside anymore, he was too outraged to wait. “Jaii, you talk big but you’ve never hurt anyone and I don’t believe you can.” His own words calmed him and he led the way outside, gesturing for Jaii to follow. He didn’t wait long, though. As soon as they were down the steps of the front porch he stripped completely, growling loudly. Rick followed, ready to jump in if necessary. It may be rules for a challenge like this to go one-on-one, but he wasn’t much for rules anyway.

As soon as his son was out the door he changed, black eyes staring at Jaii. Muscles smoothly moved beneath deep brown fur as he paced, waiting for the other male to change. Hackles raised on the back of his neck as he let out an angry bark, claws digging into the dirt beneath him.
