Forepaw slash? Sounded easy! Newtpaw flashed the enforcer a sideways smile. He slashed at the air, the wind bristling his fur.
[Newt rolls a 3]
He stumbled forward, his weight falling forward as he slashed the air. He landed with a small oof. He growled, angry at himself. How was he supposed to be the greatest warrior if he could barely hit the air?

Newtpaw gave him a weak smile, preparing himself to try again. He bunched up his muscles, squaring himself to the air. Well, that sounded wrong. Not the air, just... something?
[Newtpaw rolls a 10]
He slashed at the air once more, but he tripped over his own paws, sending himself tumbling back at the ground. Ugh, was he ever going to get it? He growled, angry at himself. If he didn't get it now, he would never!

Hm. Not quite, again. Did he need to approach it differently? "Alright, imagine there's a cat right infront of you - focus on a certain point on the cat, and swipe at that." He gave another demonstration, "If you're able to focus on that point, itshould be easier to keep your balance." He explained.

Newtpaw shook out his fur, his mind running through all that Newtbelly had explained to him. He narrowed his eyes, taking in a deep breath.
[Newt rolls a 12]
Newtpaw slashed at the air, managing to hold his balance for the first time. I... I did it! He murmured, his eyes shining with pride.

It seemed the explanation worked - "nice one." He praised him, pausing to think of what to do next. "I'm going to run at you again now - I want you to use the forepaw blow to stun me, then the front paw slash to attack. Got it?" He readied up, checking to see if Newtpaw was also ready.

Newtpaw nodded, clenching his teeth before breathing in. He narrowed his eyes, fluffing out his fur to try and look bigger. As Newtbelly advanced at him, he raised his forepaw to attempt to bat at his head.

Newtpaw smiled, making sure his claws were sheathed. He lashed out, trying to send his paw crashing towards the side of Newtbelly's face.

The paw hit Newtbelly pretty well - if it had been an actual fight, it would've done a decent amount of damage (assuming Newtbelly didn't dodge). "Nice job - see how you can combine the two?" What now... He should probably keep going over self-defence points. "When a cat attacks you, you want to make sure they can't get to your neck or stomach. Try to ensure your belly's never exposed, and if you notice a cat going for your neck, counter as soon as possible." He paused for a moment, trying to think of a good example. "For instance, if someone's trying to bite your neck, force their head down with a front paw blow."
