Username: The Librarian
Name: Keva
Gender: Female
Story: The sun was almost at blistering point, having gradually gotten hotter over the course of the morning. Yet despite how high the temperature had reached, it was all lost in the clouds as Keva had discovered. The Cattergon was content among the clouds where the air pressure dropped. She flew to the sounds of the wind in her ears and to the unsteady rhythm of her beating wings. However, as much as she wanted to spend all day in the sky, her aching muscles argued otherwise. So Keva rose a few extra feet in the air before tucking her wings to her sides and plummeting face first towards the ground. Before she met a tragic end, she let her wings open once more to slow her descent. Once her speckled body had levelled out, she gently touched down, hind legs first. Before the heat could reach her, Keva raced through the forest she called home. She darted and weaved between the trees, however a creature the size of a lion with wings and a tail, does not move gracefully. Her snake-like tail whipped against the trees, leaving behind deep gashes in the bark and Keva’s wings scraped painfully against the trees if she took turns too sharply. Eventually she reached her favourite place, the highest point she could find. Her exhaustion now reaching its point, Keva dropped to the ground, panting furiously. She looked up at the sky, already impatient for the tiredness to fade so she could fly again. Her attention was soon drawn to a flicker of movement out of the corner of her left eye. Birds. There were at least eight of them and together they formed that inverted ‘V’ formation they always flew in. Keva had never flown in such a formation, in fact she had never really flown with a group. There was that one time an eagle had joined her and tried to out maneuver Keva during one of her morning flights. Oh how she loathed show offs. That eagle had made for a tasty pre-lunch snack. As her eyes drifted shut, Keva was left wondering if she would ever find a group of Cattergons and in particular, would she ever join them. [369 words]
