Ginger woke in the early morning to feel a searing pain in her back. Holding back a yowl, she unsheathed her claws and dug them into the nest of moss she had.

She looked over her shoulder at her back. Surprisingly, the things poking out of her back that night had grown into something. They were, feathers. Long, brown and white feathers.

Ginger screeched, "What the heck?!"

Instantly, Drax's, Telracs's, and Korbyn's head shot up from sleep. At once, they noticed the "growth".

"What?!" Drax yelled

"How...?" Korbyn began.

Telracs started laughing outloud.

"Wha.. Buh.. What?" Ginger stuttered. She extended her wing, feeling it out. the feathers had black tips and were striped brown and white. Secretly, Ginger admired them. She smiled slightly. They were approximately two times the length of Ginger.

She stood up and extended them to their full length, the others watched with astonished expressions.

"Woah.." Telracs breathed.

"How in the world did this get attached to you?" Drax asked.

Ginger shrugged. She once again looked over her wings with a satisfied gaze.

"I want a pair.." Drax pouted. Ginger shrugged at him and flapped them up and down at a steady pace.

Surprisingly, Ginger was lifting off the ground. She had to beat them hard against the tight space and she felt very uncomfortable in the crammed den.

"I need some space.." Ginger dropped on all fours and padded out of the den, her friends starring dumb-witted after her.

She extended her wings once again, relishing the feeling of wind flowing through her fur and newly grown wings.

She ran through the forest, the wind caught her wings and she was thrown into the air.

Ginger wasn't afraid of heights, so she flapped her wings, beating them against the strong windy force. (May the force be with you XD)

She flew upward, towards the sun. Wind tugged at her pelt from everyside. Ginger looked down at her friends, circling on the forest floor anxiously.

Ginger smirked, then nose-dived down toward the ground. She tucked in her wings and sliced through the air. Before she hit the ground, she extended her wings and soared over the heads of her companions. She skidded to a halt on the forest floor.

Telracs, Drax, and Korbyn all came running up to her, panting hard.

"How did you do that?"

"How come you get wings!?"

"Why did you get to do that?!"

Questions were hurled at Ginger and she sighed, knowing that her compadres would never know the ecstatic feeling Ginger had felt.
