"Well, that ends today!" There was no denying he felt bad about his absence - but what could he do? Wolfhive could hardly get out of the nest for the duration of his illness, was too weak and delirious to function. Whatever befell him.. he wasn't sure. And it didn't matter.
RiverClan was gone for now, but plenty of dangers still lurked within the woods. Wolfhive had chosen this spot because it held a geographical advantage when fighting - tall grasses, nearby trees, the water.

He spun on his paws to face her, a little wobbly from the velocity but he corrected himself quickly.
"One of the most common moves you'll see in battle is cats leaping or lunging for you - and you want to dodge that as-possible; not every time will be a success, but you can reduce the odds of it.
"Dodging's simple - move out of the way! You can side-step," Wolfhive sprang quickly to one side.
"which will typically give you the opportunity to retaliate by swiping for their side. In battle, your claws should be unsheathed - but in training we try to not hurt each other." He twisted and swung his paw, as if slicing it across the flank of some invisible opponent.
"You try!"
