_Rain paw_
My pelt felt warm as I awoke to sun streaming into the apprentice den. I shifted in my nest as Jump paw, my brother prodded me awake.
"What" I mumbled through my suddenly very cozy moss bed.
"Come on Rain paw, Light bounce is taking us hunting at sparrow rocks". He mewed
I hissed in frustration and pulled myself up, blinking the sleep out of my eyes. I saw Jump paw stifle a laugh as I stood up I realized that a large chunk of moss was perched on my head sitting like a bird. I growled at Jump paw and quickly began to groom myself, shaking the moss off as I went.
I stalked out side into the Quick clan camp, I spotted Light bounce preening her wings besides a excited looking Jump paw, I was excited too but I guess I could cover it up better than Jump paw, who looked like he was leaping off the walls.
"Rain paw how good to see you I'm glad you decided to wake up so early for this little expedition" Light bounce spoke with a calm clear air in her tone that I could never hope to copy, my voice was quiet and small, I guessed that was probably why she had been named deputy.
"Come the best air currents are early in the morning near Sparrow rocks" and with that she beat her strong white wings and lifted into the sky. Jump paw flapped his much smaller wings and took to the sky, joining Light bounce as the hovered above waiting for me. I did the same flapping my dark wings, I watched as a feather came loose and fell to the ground. Soon I was soaring up to meet my brother and Light bounce in the sky.
"Come on let's go!" Jump paw mewed happily as he pulled hi wing in closer to his ginger body and shot of his tail streaming out behind him. Light bounce smiled and followed I how ever had a better idea I looped around a tall pine tree creating air currents in a circular motion I dived down onto the air and spread my wings before the ground, I shot upwards and forward quickly over taking Light bounce who let out a surprised yowl as I shot by her. Now I had my eyes on Jump paw I could see his ginger form up ahead, I smiled as I came in closer and closer until I grabbed his fluffy tail and pushed it down making him slow himself to look back surprised at me, taking is hesitation to as an opening I flapped, my wings and swooped ahead of an angry Jump paw.
I smiled as wind pushed its cold clean breeze around the tall rocks of Sparrow rocks they jutted out in odd angles, some rising so high the tops where shrouded in clouds. I spotted an unsuspecting mouse on the dark grasses beneath one of the high stones I looked back; there was no sign of Light bounce or Jump paw. I might as well catch something before Jump paw scares all the prey away with his noisy flying, I thought. I tucked my wings in and dived down, suddenly the mouse scampered into its den I tried to unfold my wings to catch myself but nothing happened. I looked around my back desperately searching for my wings; nothing was there but fur and shoulders. The next thing that happened I crashed into the ground at high speed my legs crumpled and lay uselessly next to me, my vision was over came in pain as I looked up to see two shapes flying towards the rocks but I couldn't even utter a sound to call for help before I passed out.
My dreams where filled with creaming cats as they fell to the ground wingless. The sky was dark and the ground was light I was flying and then falling re living the terrible fall that had put me in this nightmarish land. I kept on begging myself to wake up but I couldn't. Finally when it seems I was falling by Sparrow rocks for the 10th time I woke up my eyes wide I immediately stood but my legs gave way, yowling in pain I flopped back to the ground.
"Rain paw!, I heard someone mew and immediately the Medicine cat Ginger tail rushed over with herbs in her jaws, YOUR AWAKE she yelled happily and licked me on the cheek, eat these" she stuffed the foul herb into my mouth but I swallowed down the bitter taste.
"what happened" I muttered shifting painfully into a sitting position, but before she could speak I gasped where Ginger tails wings SHOULD have been there wasn't any I remembered why I had fallen I screech and looked at my back, there was still no sign of my wings. Terror overcame me and I blacked out.
The next time I awoke it was dark out the moon was only a sliver cutting into the dark I sighed and checked again for my wings, still nothing I closed my eyes and stood my legs where bound in tight bindings of reeds and grass I hobbled over to the entrance of camp and looked out in the middle of the camp sat a ginger figure with no wings my heart wanted to wail, my entire clan had lost their wings.
