Phoenix glided over her land on a gust of wind before finding a meadow and landing in it. She looked up as he hatchlings jumped to the ground trying to fly. She looked for her new member and helper for her hatchlings. She folded her wings as she watched Ashen get into it with Animus Jr. again. She broke them up once more before searching the sky again.

Atalana followed Phoenix to Mountain Ridge. She could feel Tiger Lily's claws pricking her feathers, but she didn't mind. She glided down into a small meadow. She landed softly and crouched down to let Tiger Lily slide off her back. OoC: Could I play one of the hatchlings?

OOC//:Sure be my guest just pick one of them any one doesn't matter to me
Phoenix spotted Atalana and walked over to her as Lily slid down her back happily. Phoenix smiled it would be nice for the hatchlings to be with somebody other then herself"Well are you ok?"She asked Atalana.

OoC: All right, I'll take Tiger Lily then. Atalana ruffled her feathers before folding her wings. She smiled at Phoenix. I'm fine. I've never flown with a hatchling before; it was kind of nice. She looked down at Tiger Lily. It wasn't too rough of a ride, was it? she asked gently. Tiger Lily shook her head. That was fun! Can we do it again, momma, please?

"Anytime Lily"She looked down at her hatchling and smiled. She watched the others as they played around and tumbled in the grass. She sighed deeply before laying down and having them jump on her and Ashen climbed up her neck to her head and acted like he was king of the hatchlings but Animus pounced on him and they tumbled down her back softly and hissed at each other. She watched them then gently shook them off her and got up. Love sat in the grass watching her brothers fight with each other. She walked over to Phoenix and sat under her falling asleep before being picked up and placed between Phoenixes soft paws and then falling asleep once more.

Atalana grinned and padded over closer to Phoenix. She lay down beside her, crossing her forelegs and letting the hatchlings climb on her as well. She looked over to Phoenix. So do you have a nest or anything here? she asked. Lily jumped onto Atalana's back and playfully nipped her feathers.

"Yes I do if you would like to see it I'll take you to it"She smiled again and watched Lily woth soft eyes. She watched the rest and got then shook her bodice getting rid of the dirt. She started to preen her feathers carefully waiting for Atalana to reply

Certainly, she said, getting to her feet, gently shaking Lily off. Wheee! Lily said, sliding to the ground as Atalana got up.

"I'll have to make an extra nest for you but its nice in my eyes I don't know about you"She smiled then spread her wings and put her hatchlings on her back all but Ashen who wanted to fly today. She spread her wings farther and flapped them easily looking down at Ashen as he spread his feathered wings and flapped gaining momentum easily. Soon {hoenix was up high enough that she could fly free of the trees. Ashen came beside her and took off for the nesting roost. Phoenix pulled on his tail feathers and he stopped dangling from her beak. He screamed and clawed his way up her head and neck. The other hatchlings laughed uncontrolably as their brother screamed. {hoenix smiled then started for the nest.

Atalana, still on the ground, laughed out loud at Ashen's antics. Then she spread her wings and jumped up, flapping easily.

When Atalan had finally joined her she took off to her nest.

Atalana flapped leisurely after Phoenix, keeping a casual eye on the hatchlings riding on her back. Tiger Lily squawked at her brothers and cuffed Ashen lightly over the head with her wing.

Ashen hissed and tryed biting her wing with a loud snap. Phoenix grew angery at Ashen he needed to stop being so clamped shut away from the world and picking fights with his siblings"Please go onto a large cave and you will find a nest in the back of it"She gently put every hatchling on Atalanas back all but Ashen"I hope you don't feel to weighted down and hope you ind the nest"She dropped to the ground and Ashen tumbled off her wing with a thump and a squeek. She pushed her paw onto his chest as her anger grew. She stared at him and it grew very cold and she shivered as did Ashen and he squeeked loudly he wasn't used to such coldness and he was shivering harshly. Phoenix let up and started to walk away leaving Ashen to either follow her or die in the cold. Ashen watched as his mother left him behind and she disapeared into the forest that was between the nest and him and now his mother. Phoenix felt no guilt she had been left behind but for no reason if she survived so could he not mentioning that he was igger then her when she was left. Ashen calld out to Phoenix unable to move from fright. His pleading calls where ignored as she walked on.

Atalana carried the four hatchlings on her back, rocking a little in the wind. She wasn't used to having anyone - or anything - bigger than Tiger Lily ride on her back. She struggled to stay up in the air, flapping as hard as she could without knocking the hatchlings off. With relief, she spotted a large cave and glided into it, nearly missing the edge. She crouched on shaking legs, letting all the hatchlings slide off. When they were all on the ground, she got up and walked to the back of the cave. She found the nest; it was too small for both her and Phoenix, but she and the hatchlings could fit if they scrunched together. "Come on, you four; we'll wait here until your mom gets here." Lily watched from Atalana's back as her mother took Ashen away. She let out a small, soft cry, confused. But she turned around to see where Atalana was taking them. When they landed at the entrance of the cave, and slid down happily. She remembered this place; it was the first place she could remember. She ran to the nest and lay down, and began preening her feathers.

A small tear trickled down Ashens face as he shivered again in the cold of his moms anger. He cried on last time for her to come back but no answer came from the trees. Silence fell over everything as he continued to shiver. He huddled up against the edge of the forest in a bush where it was much warmer. He sighed sadly and more tears fell to the soft ground.
Phoenix came to the base of the mountain and quickly spread her wings and flew up to the nesting spot without Ashen. She landed inside the cave and went over to the nest still angery but not at anybody besides Ashen. She smiled and it grew warmer inside the cave"I'm terribly sorry that I left you with four hatchlings"She nodded her head but before Atalana could say something she was off again for more nesting. She slowly gathered large sticks and branchs for the base, then she gathered small springy twigs and took all that to the other nest and set them beside it so Atalana could make the nest any way she wanted. Phoenix was off again and gathered meadow grass flying right over Ashen but since he was in the bush she couldn't see him. She landed in the meadow taking alot of the grass.
Ashen heard faint flapping and brightned thinking his mother had come back for him. He ran out of his bush and ran to Phoenix squeeking nonstop.
Phoenix turned her back on him and flew off back to the cave. She set down the grass'There you go Atalana you can make the nest any way you want to".
Ashen cried out as Phoenix flew off again but kept the direction she was going. He snorted then walked in that direction not knowing where he was going but he kept going in the same direction. He soon entered the forest and he watched with extreme care so he wouldn't be eaten. He lef the forest and went back to the meadow. He tried to fly but his wings still weren't strong enough. He got mad easily and plopped down angerly"Why can't I fly?!"He yelled out in fustation.
