"Okay!" Orchidpaw immediately leaped, putting all force in her fore-paws, and aimed for Hawkleap's back.

Hawkleap lost her balance as the apprentice jumped on her back. She shook Orchidpaw off gently and looked at her. "Good." Hawkleap said harshly, "now you need to learn how to dodge one."

Orchidpaw blinked. "Don't you just move aside or roll over and kick their stomach?" She flicked her ear.

"When they jump at you, you dive under so they jump over you. And make sure you tuck in your tail so they can't grab it." Hawkleap explained, rolling her eyes at Orchidpaws response. "You try, I'll jump. 3..2..1!" Hawkleap said as she leaped off the ground and towards Orchidpaw.

Orchidpaw tried to do what Hawkleap had just instructed, but she wasn't quick enough. Instead, she ended up face-planting into the ground. "Ouch. My nose..."

Hawkleap snorted quietly. She walked over "Ok, this time, you jump and I'll show you what to do." She said.

Orchidpaw felt a little hurt that her mentor didn't want to put up with her curiosity and clumsiness, but she didn't show it. She crouched down, preparing her leap, and jumped at Hawkleap, trying to land on her back.

Hawkleap dived under Orchidpaw, tucking her tail in. The tabby ended up behind the apprentice.

Orchidpaw was confused for a moment before thinking of what happened, but when she turned around, it was too late for her to strike a next attack.

"Do you think you can do that?" Hawkleap asked.
