Icepaw's Training // Day 3 // Combat

[Petalfur]

Petalfur

    "Like this," a teal-eyed bengal she-cat instructed warmly, lashing a large paw down in front of her, sharp, powerful and precise. "Keep your weight balanced on your hind quarters, but stay down low so as not to risk getting knocked over in a counter-attack." 
    A good quarter-moon had passed, and as far as Petalfur knew, her apprentice, Icepaw, had mastered hunting. Now, the two had moved on to battle training.
    "Keep hunting in mind," Petalfur continued, repeating the motion in slow motion. "Remember to strike fast, but stay balanced and graceful. This is a basic strike."

Icepaw nodded. "Got it." She mimicked Petalfur and then remembered to keep balance as well. She brought a powerful paw down like Petalfur had done and smiled.

Nodding, Petalfur continued on with the next few moves and expanations. "Keep in mind that in training, you'll always keep your claw's sheathed. In a real battle, use them to your advantage. There are some times that its best to keep them sheathed." Assuming this would be confusing, as most cats would expect to go all-out battle mode in a real battle, Petalfur continued.
    "Claws tear, at your enemy's flesh and at your own. Don't let them get caught on anything in a real battle, unless you're goal is to shred your enemy!" Petal winked, then repeated the previous move with her opposite paw, motioning for her apprentice to follow suit.

YIKES! Sorry for the late response. I had a lot of semester finals over the past two weeks, so forgive me XD

Icepaw nodded understandingly and repeated the motion with the opposite paw. She listened careful to her mentors instructions as she kept her claws sheated. She made a mental note about how her claws tear, and tearing at an enemy's flesh will hurt her as well. Even if not right away.

*oh god :$ sorry for the VERY late reply, I forgot about this site for a while lol forgive me as well XD *

    Every strike Petalfur watched and enacted made her feel like she was shredding her former mate's face. It was as if he was the only thing on her mind, even if she was completely and entirely engulfed in another activity. A chill sweeping through her legs, making her feel like her skeleton was so gelatinous that she staggered slightly, Petalfur tried to push the thoughts away for the billionth time.
     Feeling warm from embarrassment, Petalfur cleared her throat, summoning a new training skill into the forefront of her mind.
     "This next move is one for evasive maneuvers. Remember that dodging an attack can be as important as inflicting one." To prove her point, the Bengal nonchalantly marched in front of a rather large boulder, standing mockingly in front of her apprentice. "Now, try to pounce me."

Don't worry about it. If it helps, I use this link all the time because it give you a complete list of your proboards accounts and everything that you're participating in. It might make remembering easier XD. Oh, this post is terrible.
