Perfect, defending, Pigeonpaw thought. She wasn't sure she would be able to do any attacking yet, as she hadn't received any training before this. She figured defending would be easier. She still had no idea what to do, though. She looked to her mentor expectantly, waiting for her to tell her what to do.

Birchsnow nodded once more. That sounded fine. "Pigeonpaw, when on defenses you will watch the offending cat closely. You will not know when to expect an attack without observing your opponent. Keep your senses up and we will see how you far at first." The tri colored molly meowed watching her apprentice. She wanted to see what Pigeonpaw would come up on her own. Birchsnow was aware that the young molly had not received battle training yet that didn't mean she didn't know anything.

Attacking? Wait, she hadn't done that before! She was defending last time. Riverpaw casted a worried glance at Eagleflight. "Wait.. uh.. I'll try." She meowed moving to face Pigeonpaw. Swallowing a lump in her throat the small tabby tried to figure out what to do. Just do what Eagleflight did when you fought. You've got this. No, yes ah! Her head was spinning.
With a sigh Riverpaw focused on Pigeonpaw. Okay, okay. Crouching she bunched her muscles before jumping at the younger molly. I'll see what she does then act. No so hard...

I can tell you raised yourself-- you have the attitude of a kit who's never been told 'no' in her life, which amazes me because we both know that's not true. If you want to be treated like an adult, you should focus on acting like one. Drop the attitude."

He wasn't done, tail lashing from his frustration. "You're going to need to be a lot more confident in what you want. 'I think' won't cut it. Either you do or you don't-- there's no in between, Violetpaw."

Pigeonpaw panicked at first, not knowing what to do. That wasn't really any help, thanks! she thought begrudgingly as she watched Riverpaw make her leap. Alright, I need to get out of the way! that was her first thought. She moved to scurry to the side, but she tripped over her deformed paws as usual and landed with a light thud on the frozen sand. "Oh, fox-dung!" she cursed out loud as Riverpaw landed on top of her. "Ah, sorry, I didn't mean to curse..."


Eagleflight watched expectantly as his apprentice made her leap, observing her stance and stature. It wasn't great, but it wasn't terrible either. He could work with that. "Good job, Riverpaw," he praised, although he knew she mostly had landed it because Pigeonpaw had tripped. He almost asked if she was alright, but her outburst told him all he needed to know.
"You'll have to be extra careful with her training, with those paws of hers," the deputy mentioned to Birchsnow, in reference to Pigeonpaw's polydactyl deformity.

Hickoryblaze trotted through the light undergrowth, feeling the breeze draft in through the gaps. Today would mark his first training session with Leafpaw- he just hoped he knew what to do! He was terrible at planning, but he'd managed to get by with Oakflame. He sat in the centre of the island, waiting for his apprentice.

@Lilyfur2 leafpaw padded up to hickoryblaze " what are we going to do" she asked sweetly

Practically hopping like a windclan rabbit, sootpaw head to the island. He was buzzing with excitement and was ready to do just about anything . To him it was such a nice day, and he had somewhere in mind that he wanted to go to. But he figured he'd need a warrior to escort him.. The grey tom raised his chin as he waited for dogear "can we go to lionsbeach after this? I've been itching to go! It sounds so exciting." he was never really hyper. ..But on days where he deemed perfect. It gave him an energy boost.

[nykyrian]

" Maybe after, but for now we are going to practice your battle moves" Dogear replied. He was amused by this apprentice's enthusiasm. " And make sure you save your energy for training " he joked. @SilentLamb

@GrassRipple

Flattening his ears at the maybe, Sootpaw grumbled with a irritated tail twitch . However he did want to learn some powerful moves...and perhaps even some that may impress wormpaw. He's been wanting to be His right hand man for so long ..ever since he's heard about him "I want to learn some very effective skills. Skills that any other apprentice will be jealous of that they didn't get to learn first " he meowed with a smile.

[nykyrian]

" That we can do" he said to Sootpaw remembering his apprentice days when he always wanted to make the other apprentices jealous. And then he did when he went of fighting that dog pack then getting a tooth in his ear to prove it. @SilentLamb

Eyes sparking with joy, the tom grinned. thank starclan I got a cool mentor! "sweet! " he purred . He stretched out his legs and claws only to turn roll his shoulders. "I'm so glad lionstar didn't give me a strict boring mentor. Let's go! " he said with a tail swish.
