Training Jetpaw

[Owl]

Owlclaw was sitting in the Oak Grove, "Now, Jetpaw, Attack me" he meowed, standing up.

_{Jetpaw flexed his claws, wondering what to do first. He an left, sliding suddenly and going underneath Owlclaw. He thrust his feet upwards, hoping to catch his mentor off guard.}

[Owl]

Owlclaw Sidestepped and batted Jetpaw back to where he had started. "Try again" Owlclaw meowed "Try an attack that no one would suspect".

[[Hea]ther[/sky]]

_{Jetpaw nodded slightly. He watched Owlclaw's eyes, standng light on his paws. He seemed to charge straight at Owlclaw, maintaining eye contact, but instead veered off to the side. He attempted to ram Owlclaw in the shoulder with his paws outstretched.}

[Owl]

Owlclaw grunted as Jetpaw hit him, "Good!" He meowed goodheartedly, "Now, another trick is to try to knock your opponant over, then you can go for their underbelly" He looked at Jetpaw, his eyes filling with admiration, his apprentice!

[[Hea]ther[/sky]]

_{Jetpaw nodded, standing at attention. He maintained eye contact with his mentor, hoping this would distract Owlclaw. He started swiftly, running at his mentor again and twisting, lashing out with his hindpaws and attempting to dislodge Owlclaw's paws from the ground.}

[Owl]

Owlclaw lifted his forepaws and let Jetpaw lash out into the dust, he then knocked Jetpaw over softly. "Good work, now try again in a different way".

[[Hea]ther[/sky]]

_{Jetpaw begun to breathe a little harder. He rolled sideways and regained his footing, then watched as a beetle crawled by in the soil. Knowing his mentor would let his guard down a little when he saw his apprentice was watching the bug and not focusing on him, Jetpaw allowed his mentor to assume he was watching the bug and not focusing on the fight. When he felt that Owlclaw was not on complete guard, he lashed out from the side, heading straight for Owlclaw and attempting to bowl him over.}

[Owl]

Owlclaw felt Jetpaw's body crash into him, knocking him over, "Excellent!" he grunted, standing up, "That was the best i've ever seen an apprentice do!" he purred

[[Hea]ther[/sky]]

_{Jetpaw jerked himself backwards, though more gracefully than it at first felt to the ink-furred apprentice. He gave his chest fur a couple of embarassed licks at the praise.}

[Owl]

Owlclaw looked at his apprentice, "Alright another fighting move is to make your opponant think he's won the fight, then crash into him or lash out suddenly."
