Alatula fought the winds, her wings aching from the hours and hours of flight. She looked down, though she knew she wouldn't see the ocean or her island home. It was nothing more than a swirling mass of white. She looked up againt, just in time to see the cliffside rising out of the storm.
----
Cold.
Dark.
Voices.
Pain.
Alatula slowly got to her feet, wings dragging against the ground and gingerly reached up a paw to touch her head. Instead of coming away sticky with blood she found it bound with some sort of leathery leaf. She blinked and realized the voices had stopped.
Looking around she found herself in a psuedo cave created by a thick tangle of roots and a collapsed tree trunk. Around her were several cats, far bigger than her, scarred and heavy furred. And they all turned to stare at her when she stood up.
"How do you feel?" One of them asked, shambling closer. Their voice was husky with a rough accent, but somehow still feminine.
Alatula shrank away "Where am I?"
Another one stepped forwards "In the Den home of the Pack of Northern Fire. Where are you from, little bird?"
"The Trembling Islands," she whispered "Do you know how to get back? I want to go home."
"Where is it?" The first one asked.
"In the chain of the Flowering Archepelego, in the band of the glowing ocean."
The two exchanged looks "What's an ocean?"

Alatula felt a cold jolt of fear and without thinking she went running out of the den and took to the air. It was frigid and she had to beat hard to gain any altitude but the higher she flew the further her heart sank. Nothing but white and mountains.
For hours she pushed her already agonized body to its limits. Until she came to a massive mountainside. She raced on a wind for too long. The stark stone was endless.
Then she tried to go. In a second she was met with a maelstorm of conflicting wind currents. She was slammed against the cliff and went tumbling down. The snow enveloped her in a freezing embrace. It took her a long time before she could dig herself out. Then with a nearly broken spirit she returned to the Pack of Northern Fire.
They accepted her back quietly with no more questions. She stayed hunkered in a dark corner for several days healing, then several days more, mourning the loss of her life. Until a tiny ball of fur came tottering to stand right in front of her.
"You gotta get up."
Alatula glared at the cub "Who are you?"
"Allrain. I'm part of your pack now."
"This isn't my pack," Alatula whimpered "It never will be."
"Well, are you leaving?"
"I can't."
"Then we're Packmates," Allrain said, then curled up against Alatula "Got it?"
Alatula closed her eyes and tears slipped out "Okay."

Prompt;

In a long lost village far in the distant past, there once was a family of winged cats. They were cats of hunt, tracking their prey as swiftly as they deliver the bite. Their great wings allowed them to grab the birds straight out of the air! The winged cats were revered as leaders and skilled warriors of the village, fending for the other cats and providing the food. For generations, the tradition was held that the winged defend the weak, until one corrupted winged cat saw this unfair. He disagreed, saying fiercely that the normal cats were doing nothing while the winged did everything for them. He destroyed the village and all of the cats in it in his blind anger, until he was the only one left from the village.

The destroyer's descendants would not know of any of this, however. While they did not live up to his nature, they tend to be heroes of a sort. Eagle is a direct descendant, and his favorite saying is "the brave stand up for the weak", and he uses his wings to help others. He's a patient and kind, trustworthy character who his current pack loves to be around with. He has a natural hunting ability, his paws stealthy and silent as he stalks his prey, undoubtedly inherited by a winged ancestor.

The cats of the polar ice caps were trapped in eternal darkness, searching for light. The Ancients had turned away from them because no cat believed in them anymore, for the cats of the polar ice caps were led astray by the dark ancien and by their own paths. Even Haven had begun to consider this could be it for the polar ice caps and that maybe disbanding the pack was the best choice. Haven and Valora were the only two cats who still believed in the existence of the Ancestors and The Ancients. The two had lost all hope, with no great sign from the Ancients apart from a prophetic line "the savior will come from the sky" and no where to go during these ice-cold months of winter, they too were losing belief.

But when all seemed but lost, the pack's savior came from the sky, just as the prophecy had said. Haaken, meaning chosen, came to save the clan from peril. He fought the dark ancient claw and tooth, for the sake of the clan. He the defeated the dark ancient and led the cats back to what the Ancients had always intended for the pack. He brought the clan back to the best state it had been in in years.Haven and the rest of the clan welcomed him into the pack and he took his place as one of the three gammas. He has always been a helper, from the start of when he came to save the clan to right now.

Prompt; Star’s life was difficult. When she was born, her mother and father threw her out. She was their first-born, and their disappointment. She was found by River, and he took her in. She grew up with the other cubs, Moss and Cesar. She then soon learned how to fly, and amazed everyone. Star is now a high-respected healer, and is certaintly an amazing cat. She currently has no mate, but hopes to find won who will love her for who she is on the inside, not how she flies.

Prompt;
Nalakai flew above her warriors, chirping softly as she gave them orders only they could hear. They were hunting to feed the cubs, surrounding a frail creature. Each life they took was necessary, each death bringing the circle around. They worked together, before Nalakai flew in to make the final kill. She was teaching her squires how to ask permission for their nourishment. Nalakai landed, approaching the weak animal. She approached slowly, asking through a glance for the life of one to feed many. with the acknowledgement between prey and hunter, the pack brought back it's kill to feed the young, it was done.
