*When Antpelt appears, Thistleclaw assigns him and Ivypool a task - a fight, technically. He shows them a fallen tree, telling Antpelt he will attack the tree, and Ivypool will defend. If Antpelt wins, he would have forced Ivypool up to the top of the heap.
*None of them win, but with Thistleclaw's mocking, Antpelt gets angry and attacks Thistleclaw, but Thistleclaw is ferocious towards Antpelt and injuries him seriously.
