Mock Battles
Beside the Challenge grounds is a smaller area designated for mocks. Battle is a way of life in the land of Beqanna, and one must be in top shape to succeed over their foes. This land is a land of practice, where knowledge and skill is gained and wounds are healed immediately after by a watchful battle fairy.
well I prefer the jitterbug

This time she had some time to rest as her opponent considered what attacks would be best for her injured body. This gave Seraphina some time to watch her and think about what to expect. She knew that the girl's hind left leg was bad, probably worst now. And her front right leg and neck were sore as well, but not nearly as bad as the left leg. So she knows not to expect a rearing attack on her left side, as Inali certainly wouldn't want to strike with her sore left forelimb, and not to expect a strong buck for fear of further injuring that left limb.
When Inali charges, Sera is ready to go. She stood her ground until the mare was right up upon her and then took a few backward steps, but still receiving a jab on the *right side of her neck, making her already bruised shoulder complain from the continued battery.
Now that the right front side of her body was tired and sore, she had to be careful about this next attack. She couldn't afford another attack at her left hind leg with its already resonating pain. And she had to protect her left front side as she needed the balance it provided to be able to move after this was over.
After thinking this through she is prepared for Inali's final attack. She stands firmly on the ground, spreading her weight evenly across all of her limbs despite her right forelimb and her left hindlimb's protest. She would be ready for anything. Her golden hawk eyes narrow in on the black mare as she races towards her. Sera's body tenses, ready for action, but the mare rounds behind her and comes up behind her. She turns her head in order to see Inali's intent - and observes her head's movement towards her already sore right limb. She shifts her weight onto her left forelimb and raises her right limb as to move it away from harm; but her reactions are slow due to the dull throb of pain and her opponents teeth nip at the muscles of her elbow, however they fail to meet tendon or bone.
Relieved, but sore, Sera takes stock of her condition. Her left hind leg will be sore for about a week, and her right forelimb, although the most beaten, will heal rather quickly despite the initial pain. She turns to hear Inali speak and she smiles. "Yes, well done."
* you didn't specify which side so I picked one :P
