If one bothered to look outside of the Institute, one would see the forests that surrounded three quarters of the building. These trees were kept for the more feral champions, as well as those who enjoyed hunting, for their place of residence or recreation.
Different sections of these forests belonged to different champions, and predators, and one had to be wary where they trod uninvited...
The proof that the state is a creation of nature and prior to the individual is that the individual, when isolated, is not self-sufficing; and therefore he is like a part in relation to the whole. But he who is unable to live in society, or who has no need because he is sufficient for himself, must be either a beast or a god.
Shyvana's boots hit hard against the forest floor... her golden eyes scanned the area... her fists clenched, and twitched, as if restless. She walked a little more into the forest made for more of it's feral inhabitants. She had came for one man only, the only other person that could possibly match her own strength in hand to hand combat.
"Beast man.." She said quietly, knowing Udyr would be around to hear it.

Udyr leapt down from a nearby tree, a falcon in his hand that he was roasting, fire flickering around and about his palm. The smell of nearly fully cooked flesh wafted as he glared at Shyvana. Udyr took a bite out of the bird's leg and waited for her to say something more.

Shyvana turned to meet the beast man's gaze. Her golden eyes ran over his form... he was eating a falcon. Shyvana crossed her arms over her chest and spoke bluntly. "I wish to fight you." She simply spoke flatly. "I've been... antsy for a sparing partner... none have been able to withstand my power." Shyvana then narrowed her eyes slightly. "But you should be more than capable."
Shyvana was then silent as she awaited Udyr's response.. knowing the beast man would not turn down a challenge.

Udyr stared at Shyvana, eating the falcon in silence. He eventually cricked his neck, discarded the bird's bones onto the ground and grunted, "Then you shall feel the might of Udyr."
With that said, he dashed directly to her, a thunderous fist aimed at her solar plexus. And so the fight began.

Shyvana quickly threw out her own hand to protect herself, letting Udyr's punch collide with her palm. She force of it shook her arm a little... yes, he would do. Shyvana then reared back and threw her own punch aimed at the top of Udyr's head, letting out a growl as she did so.

Udyr allowed Shyvana's strike to connect, he did not try to dodge or defend himself. Her knuckles would feel as though they had struck a slab of iron, but the trickles of blood that trailed down his face was evidence enough that she had wounded him.
The beast man snorted and said, "You strike like a child." His hand snapped up and grabbed her forearm, his vice grip tightening around her arm. If she tried to struggle, she would realize it was to no avail. And soon, he would snap her arm in half just from the grip alone if she did not do something to release herself.
((2 posts until forearm is broken, act quickly))

Shyvana felt her strike land, and narrowed her eyes at Udyr's response. The force of it shook her arm again, but she was use to punching steel, so it did not phase her too much. "Then a child was able to draw blood from you, fragile creature." Shyvana snorted back.
As Shyvana's arm was grab, she felt him slowly beginning to crush it. Shyvana decided to use this to her advantage though. She jerked her arm back in an attempt to pull him forward, she would them rear back and headbutt him if successful. Between Shyvana's helmet, and her steel like skull, it would likely feel like getting slapped up side the head with a very large diamond.

"Child in mindset, not in stature."
Udyr's brow furrowed, instead of drawing back from the headbutt, he fired his own head forward and used the momentum Shyvana had given him to add to his own leap forward to maximize his velocity. Two thick headed people would collide skulls, his Turtle aspect prevalent.
Steel upon steel struck one another. This did not make the beast man reel, for truth be told, he had been struck harder by many other people, including a certain person's roundhouse kicks. Blood would fleck out from the wounds already committed on his skin, and splatter Shyvana's face from the force of impact.
He may feel like he was being slapped upside the head, but Shyvana would see what happens when one who could sunder steel with his bare hands struck her helmet with his face.
Udyr's grasp on Shyvana's arm was kept, his grip tightening. A simple headbutt would not be enough to daze this beast man.
((One post left, and said certain person would be Lee Sin. Shame on you for thinking otherwise.))

The Half-Dragon let out a growl as their head slammed together. It did not seem to phase the beast man as much as she'd like. Her helmet dented, and blood leaked out from under it. She growled even more and threw a punch at Udyr's arm in an attempt to break herself free from his grasp.

The half dragon threw a punch to break his grip. This showed her brute force, and her lack of skill. To a trained martial artist, this was a tactic screaming to be punished. The subtle sound of her radial bone cracking whispered from underneath her armor as Udyr's grip tightened for a split second. The hairline fracture would be enough for his intentions. He released her arm and with his free hand, slapped her striking hand away from him. The beast man would make a quick poke at the exposed arm pit of Shyvana, drawing a trace amount of blood from the exposed side, but did not act further than that.
Using her own momentum against her, Shyvana's back now faced Udyr. For most, this would mean death. For Shyvana, this meant only worse. Udyr's beefy arms wrapped themselves around her waist, his hand locking with one another. With a swift jerk, he lifted her up into the air. Shyvana could guess his intentions now: he was goin to suplex her. She would have to act quickly, but her left arm would be more fragile thanks to the fracture.

Shyvana growled in pain as she felt her arm snap a little. Shyvana was then facing away from Udyr and was about to retaliate until his arms wrapped around her waist and lifted her off the ground, however, when he moved back with her, she stretched her arms out to break her fall. Her fractured arm snapped under the the weight, though she expected that. She growled again in pain, but did not seem to mind it too much as fire surrounded her body. Attempting to burn Udyr away from her.

Fire. Udyr's body roared with his own flames, matching Shyvana's in intensity at the current moment. His tanned skin was a reminder of how often he exposed himself to flames of various sources. The question was what was hotter, the fire of a half dragon that roared wildly, or the concentrated flame of the Phoenix?
It mattered not. Shyvana had tried to break free using her flames, making the beast man chuckle. He could feel the heat lick his face, but he was used to fire. Udyr had created a bridge with his body, in order to maximize the impact of the suplex. Kicking his legs, Udyr pushed himself off the ground, over Shyvana and back on his feet, with her still locked in his grip.
Udyr lifted Shyvana up into the air once more, readying to suplex her yet again, reddish-blue flames flickering and roaring out from them, scorching the ground about them in a six meter circumference.

Shyvana cursed under her breath as her fire was met with Udyr's own. Though she probably should have expected as such. When Udyr went over, Shyvana reared back and aimed an elbow at his face, doing this over and over, trying to break free once more.

Udyr's cheek would gash open from the repeated strikes, but this did not deter him, allowing the blows to graze his face due to the awkward position she was trying to strike him from. Instead of using his Turtle aspect, Shyvana would feel the grip around her hips tighten, the creaking of bone nearing to break as the Bear aspect became prevalent. With another slam, the back of Shyvana's head slammed against the ground, if not attempted to be countered by more productive, the impact would leave a small crater.
The half-dragon would need to break free, now, if she expected to remain conscious. And breathing.
