"Um... Hi."

Icepaw shuffled his paws, and his eyes flickered away from the kittypet sitting in front of him. Russia tilted his head, and smiled regretfully.

"I certainly hope that what happened last time doesn't happen this time. However, I've taken into account how Noru has already taught you his style?"

Icepaw hesitated, then nodded. Russia sighed, and suddenly pushed the apprentice to the ground, his belly up.

"So, show me how he's taught you to get off from me."

Icepaw suddenly went limp, as he had seen the other apprentices learn to do, but Russia didn't relent; Instead, he pressed his paw harder on Icepaw's belly, and the apprentice writhed helplessly beneath his paw. Russia narrowed his violet eyes, but mewed in that same cajoling voice,

"No, not NightClan's way, but the way Noru taught you. Now."

Icepaw paused, then, with obvious effort, brought his back paws up, and kicked Russia's stomach. The kittypet smiled to himself, even as he felt the apprentice's hindlegs driving the wind out of his stomach and forcing him to double up, letting go as he got his breath back, and nodded, satisfied.

"Well, then, that's interesting to know. Keep in mind that if you go limp, not everycat will let go slightly, taking this as a sign of submission, okay?"

"...Okay."

"Good! Now, let's just teach you some measure of herbs and all that, yes? Let's go~"

Russia padded away, humming to himself. Icepaw glanced back, and hurried after him.
