(Story details:

Hazel has grown her wings out for the first time, and is ready to try and learn to fly!)

( No one's POV )

After heading out of town, Bekkah, Cuphead, Mugman and Hazel had finally arrived at the forest. Today was the first day that Hazel had grown her wings, and wants to test them. While Mugman and Cuphead stayed below a mountainside cliff that overlooks the forest, Bekkah and Hazel were on it waiting for the perfect time to fly. Bekkah sat next to Hazel, preparing her. "Don't worry Hazel, everything will be fine. I will be flying next to you the whole time!" She said comfortingly, Hazel lightly quivering all the while from being nervous. "I know mom.. i'm just nervous, that's all." Hazel sighed, as she stared down the cliff, it will be quite the fall. "Just take your time, sweetie. I was scared my first time, and it took a while for me to learn, but once you get the hang of it, the experience is anything but scary. When we get close enough to prepare to fly, I will start to count. Prepare for that, okay?" Hazel looked up to Bekkah with a small smile and nodded once, before sitting up. "When your ready." Bekkah says softly, nudging Hazel's cheek, preparing to give the signal. Hazel waited around 7 seconds to brace, before she lightly inhaled, and stiffened her wings outward. "I'm ready mom.." She huffed, putting on as serious of a face as she could. Her legs shiver a bit as she prepared. With that Bekkah inhaled deeply, and let out a howl to signal Cuphead and Mugman that they were jumping, making sure they could here it. In two seconds, Bekkah and Hazel backed up, before running forward, wings and tail out straight as they leaped off the cliff.

( Hazel's POV )

As we jumped, it felt like time slowed for a moment, and before I knew it me and mom were falling toward the ground. It was very high, so hitting the ground wasn't a major worry yet, but it was still a fright for sure! I lightly panted anxiously, and mom turned her wings to come closer to me, and had her front paws on both sides of me. "Don't be afraid Hazel, its okay. Use the wind, follow the current. Make sure to refrain from breathing too heavily." Mom told me in a calm voice,  before backing up a bit. I followed her movements, focusing on the air current as we drew closer to the treeline. "Okay Hazie, get ready.. we're gonna glide soon." Mom warned, and I held my breath as she started counting. "One.." We open our wings wider. "Two.." Both our ears pinned back and tucked our legs a bit more under our body. And then... "Three!!" Mom shouted, and with that, we were above the trees as we tilted our wings to catch the air. I nearly hit the branches, but glided over with mom as we went a bit up into the air again. "WOO HOOOO!! I DID IT!!" I laugh, proud I didn't crash into the trees. Mom flew next to me and circled me once, laughing happily as well. "That's my girl!" She says with glee, and we turned to face the ground again to prepare for landing. I saw dad and uncle running toward where we were going down, from the bottom of the cliff (In case I didn't glide in time, they would catch me.) Uncle waved to us with a big smile, and dad had a look on his face that said nothing more than him being proud. Only a few yards from the ground, I misjudged a turn and my left wing clipped a branch, and I lost control, and began to frantically flap my wings. "WOAH- MOM, HELP!!" I yelp, and mom gasps, instantly flying toward me to catch me by the scruff in her jaws, opening her wings to slow down the dive and landed on all fours in front of dad and uncle, placing me in dad's arms. "Hazel, are you okay?!" Dad asked with concern, grabbing and looking at my wing to make sure I didn't hurt it from the branch, but it was just scraped a little under the feathers so it wasn't a bad injury. "I'm okay dad, but- did you see me?! I flew, dad! I FLEW!!" I started calmly, before shouting in excitement, jumping out of my dad's arms and jumping around in circles happily, causing everyone to laugh along. "You sure did, Hazel! Me and Cup are so proud of you! All you gotta do now is learn long flying and landing!" Uncle Mugs said, leaning down to pet my head, but from me still being wound up from excitement I flopped on my side to bat and bite at his hand playfully. "I know- i'm just so happy!" I exclaim, and jolt up from my side to run over to mom and jump onto her back. "Lets go again!!" I bark eagerly, and mom gives a nervous laugh. "Oh no, sweetie. You hit your wing, its not a good idea to try that again until that scrape heals. Last thing we need is for your wing to act up before the glide." She says in a protective manner, causing me to groan. "Aaaalriiiight.." I say with a disappointed voice as I flop down onto my belly. "Come on, lets go home. You deserve a treat for such an achievement! We can do this again tomorrow." Mom chuckles, and we set off to head back home.
