Shardpaw groaned and got up, swaying on his paws. "I think I need to go see Juniperpaw..." he padded out of the cave, his paws barely holding him up.

Reedpelt looked at the young tom with concern. "Okay, no big deal. You'll be fighting me and Whisperpaw then. Don't worry, I'll go easy on you."

Ripplepaw flicked her tail in farewell to Shardpaw. She then straightened up, meeting her mentor in the eyes, "There's no need." She said proudly, "After all, enemy clans wouldn't go easy on me." Ripplepaw pointed out, her tail lashing.
