Training~!

In the Warrior Clans, there is much need for fighting; such as other clan cats, or even invaders, like badgers, foxes, and dogs. Since I did a lot of hunting during these few days, Whitestorm wanted to improve my fighting skills. I want to be the best warrior in the Clan; even though I am already famous for catching prey for ThunderClan.
In ThunderClan, we apprentices practice our fighting skills in the sandy hallow; where we can't get hurt that easily since the ground is very soft with smoothed sand and are bordered by soft undergrowth. Today I practiced with Graypaw, and Firepaw. (Ravenpaw couldn't come because of one of his many injuries) Lionheart and Whitestorm trained the fighting techniques, such as the Leap-and-hold technique with the Drop-and-roll technique. Graypaw also practiced the front blow attack with Firepaw, who also did the upright lock, which needs a lot of strength and speed.(on Graypaw) This is how you do it- it is a final, crushing move on an already weakend opponent. You rear up on your back legs, and bring full weight down on the opponent. If the enemy does the same, wrestle and flip him under you. This move makes you vulnerable to the belly rake, a move that rakes your belly, so you have to be careful. Firepaw didn't do it THAT HARD, so Graypaw was okay.
Even though Firepaw and Graypaw did pretty good, Whitestorm said that I was one of the best- since I did the scruff shake, which is a move that throws the opponent out and shocked. Since I was the biggest apprentice, I could have done it with only some effort; while the other 2 apprentices had to use almost all their energy to do it. I also did the Back Kick and the Belly Rake. The Back Kick is a technique that is very explosive, since you literally 'kick' the opponent with your hind legs- which are more powerful than the front legs. The Belly Rake almost every time stops the fight, since the belly is one of the most vulnerable spot for cats. Ha ha ha.. I feel so good!!!
I hope I learn more fighting techniques- like the Killing Bite, Teeth Grip, and MORE!!!! I'm going to ask Whitestorm the first thing in the morning tomorrow!!! :)
