But our advantage over the other clans is our cleverness. Do not worry about lacking strength, or speed, those things will come. But cleverness...if you can become a quick thinking warrior, you will never lose a battle. In our training, we will hone your strength, your speed...but most importantly, I will give you a repertoire of tools to use against your enemy. Tools to outsmart them. Now--" the fearsome she-cat circled Paprikapaw, her tattered ears fixed on the apprentice, "Show me a basic battle stance. Whatever you've got, I want to see it. Imagine you have just heard Dawnstar announce 'ShadowClan, attack!' Show me the posture you believe will keep you on all four paws if a warrior comes charging your way."
