Blue eyes gaze through brambles, a lean figure slips through the thorny shadow. White paws press against soft sandy earth, and a slender cream ginger tail sways back and forth like a leaf on a wind current. A whisper echos through the trees above as petals fall to earth, in a elegant waltz.
Duckpaw padded to the mid center of the bramble clearing. Her fur matted a little from the spiky bramble vines. Gracefully the feline sat down, took a white paw and smoothed down the cream ginger and white fur. When the fur lay softly on the skinny body her eyes flickered up to the painted blue abyss above. She was waiting for Jadegaze to come so that she could discover that which has not been taught to her. Thoughts raced through Duckpaw's mind, of the ways of Warriors, clan-life, and other mysterious that lay subsided in the shadows for now. Her ears rotated back as leaves rustled, but as the she-cat looked over the feline realized it was just a rabbit. The sound of nature drifted in the sound barrier as the apprentice waited on the sandy clearing for her mentor to come.

The small formed beaitufl cream colored she-cat bounded gracefully into the Bramble Clearing. Her jade colored gaze shining in the sunlight. She smiled and shook her fur. The brown marking on her head glistened and her brown tipped tail was twitching back and forth.
She nodded and mewed gently and calmly," Hello Duckpaw. What would you like to learn today?" She asked. She sat down and wrapped her tail neatly around her paws. Her soft fur smooth against her skin, that is until a big gust of wind came through and ruffled it. She shook her pelt and smoothed it again with her small pink tongue.

A slight breeze blew through the light ginger and white fur of Duckpaw. Her claws digging into the earth as each moment past. Once again she heard another sound, and this time Jadegaze appeared. Her blue eyes looked at her mentor with excitement. The feline's tail twitched as Duckpaw stretched her muscles putting her front paws forward. With a shake of her fur Duckpaw opened her mouth to respond " I wouldn't mind learning about proper defense in a fight. " her works spoke clear as it bounced off of the sand and to her mentor.
{Sorry its kind of short. I have other things I really need to do heh.}

Jadegaze smiled and mewed," Okay, show me what you already know." She muttered, standing and crouching, her tail waving back and forth in the air. Her jade colored eyes glowing mischievously.

The creamy ginger and white feline nodded at her mentor. In order to show defence you must first get into a fight. The apprentice got into a fighting crouch making sure her claws where tucked away safely {I forgot if it was called sheathed or unsheathed xD}. The blue of her eyes burned into Jadegaze's fur, while whiskers quivered with excitement. As a feather feel to earth from a passing bird Duckpaw sprang at Jadegaze making sure she would not hurt the other cream colored cat. Duckpaw made sure her underbelly was not going to be exposed.

Jadegaze rolled out of Duckpaw's way and jumped up onto her paws again. Her body moving quickly and gracefully. She lookes like a snake. She darted forward and rolled, doing a paw-stand, and kicking out into the air. She landed on her paws paws and pawwed at the young she-cats head.
(lol, she did a paw-stand! xD)

Duckpaw's blue eyes glanced at Jadegaze as the apprentice missed her target. She got up and spun around, but before she could do anything else Jadegaze quickly started pawing at Duckpaw's furry head. But then the apprentice nipped at her mentor's paws. She ducked rolled then tried to pounce on Jadegaze. Her cream ginger fur looking a bit darker from rolling around in the sandy dirt.

Jadegaze fell to the ground, landing on Duckpaw's back-side. She turned sharply and stood there, breathless. She started to laugh gently and mewed," Excellent Duckpaw. Now do you know how to attack a Riverclan warrior?" She asked, her apprentice was nearing the end of her apprenticeship so she should know this.

Paw prints indent in the sandy terrain. Duckpaw looked at her mentor in satisfaction. her tail twitched with ever moment that passed. White paws forced to fade to sandy brown, and the creamy ginger fur ruffled with grains of sand. Her claws dug into the earth, but when the question arose from her mentor she began to shuffle the dirty paws a little. "Um, well... You have to be swift, but technically you attack a RiverClan warrior like you would with any other kind of Clan cat." Duckpaw said with a bit of confidence yet still a bit of unsureness echoed in the shadows of her mind.

Jadegaze nodded and mewed," But you would use their oversizes to your advantage. They are much larger than you are. So use that. Now pretend I am a Riverclan warrior. Attack me!" She growled, her tone playful with a hint of challange. She smirked.

Duckpaw's blue eyes gazed as her mentor taking in every bit of knowledge that Jadegaze was passing on to her. The white paws stopped shifting the dirt and lay still. Yet her tail twitched every so often as the wind echoed throughout the clearing. She took in every scent that curled around the cream ginger fur. The soft furry head nodded at her mentor's words, then the apprentice crouched. Pupils turning into slits the white paws struck the ground once more as Duckpaw darted toward the other feline. She Zig-zaged side to side making sure to keep focus on her mentor. With another heart beat Duckpaw ran around Jadegaze, she sped up since her size was much smaller this made Duckpaw go faster then normal.
The apprentice braced herself, ears laying flat as the creamy ginger feline tried to ram into Jadegaze's side trying to tip her over. Her paws getting ready to pin pounce on the warrior if the attack was successful.

Jadegaze watched as her apprentice darted from side to side. She felt the impact on her side and she fell to teh ground. But she knew her apprentice would have ready paws. She rolled, instead of laying with her belly exposed, toward her apprentice into her legs. Hopefully knocking her to the ground. She bounced up and whirled around, prepared for a counter attack.

The apprentice felt contact. She had tipped her mentor over, her paws skidded on the sandy ground. Kicking up some dust into the air, the cream ginger feline tripped over Jadegaze as the mentor rolled into her hind legs. But instead of straggling up the apprentice did a somersault springing her hind legs at the right moment into the air. Claws dug into the soft earth as white paws pounded in a landing. She almost fell over again due to her legs aching from all the jumping and rolling she had done. Duckpaw then sharply turned to Jadegaze her blue eyes gazing deep into the other feline's fur.

Jadegaze smiled," Excellent! Now how do you attack a Thunderclan warrior? What are their strengths and weaknesses?" She asked, she knew that this was very advanced stuff, kinda, but her apprentice should know it. She was smart.

Thoughts raced through Duckpaw's mind, she remembered her father telling her all about the other clans but since she was only a kit when he did so the apprentice only knew so much now. Her blue eyes swirled with memories, a bird called from above and flew off a branch. Feathers danced with the air as it feel the small soft shapes fell to earth.
Her mouth curved over words as the cream ginger feline spoke "Well, Thunderclan warriors have more physical strength then most of the other clans. So we WindClan cats must use our quick sleek bodies to maneuver around them. Confusion is key, and also you want to try to aim for the joint of the legs and their scruff when attacking. Since they have good physical strengths you want to try to prevent getting squished when they do a counter roll." it sounded as if Duckpaw had spoken the words of SwiftStorm himself. Although that wasn't quiet what he had said a couple moons back. Her tail twitched once or twice waiting to see if Jadegaze had more knowledge to lay upon the apprentice or not.
