Adulthood

"It's fun when you do the heat thing...if you know what I mean...love is fun though."

"Cool" Miale smirked and rolled onto his back looking up at the sky "Can't wait to be bigger and have a mane" he replied dreamily smiling

"All the lions I've spoke to always had the same dreams as you when they were cubs...to be honest, I had the same dreams too..."

"Really?" Miale replied glancing back at Katai "Being a adult seems fun...but the love thing seems so yuk...but same time quite cool" he smiled

"Being an adult is good...apart from when you get past your age and you become an old lion...then you have to rely on other members of the pride for support...I'd enjoy your cub years as much as I can if I were you...it won't be long until you're fully grown." Katai tells Miale.

"Yeah well I wasted enough of my cub being a kind push over and not acting like a cub untill well that incident" Miale replied "Now I'm like any other cub...I'm still like my old self though" he smirked "The smart side to me"

"Yeah...would you like Guan to come and play now? His nap time is almost over..." Katai smiles to Miale.

"Yeah sure" Miale smirked "Hes fun to play with"

"Alright...would you mind waiting here whilst I go back and get him?"

"Oh ok sure thing" Miale replied looking up at Katai then padded over to a rock and lay down on his stomach "Hurry back" he smiled

Katai shoots off back towards pride rock to collect his son, "Guan..." he says as he walks into the den. Guan opens his eyes, "Wha-what?" he looks up to his dad.
"Would you like to play with Miale now?" he smiles down to him, nuzzling him lovingly.
"Uh...sure." he smiles waking up and climbing on to Katai's back.

Miale lay on his rock looking at the clouds before noticing a butterfly flutter over his head. Miale smirked and tried to bat it with his paws.

(Jasiri is only a cub here btw)
Jasiri slowly padded up behind Miale "Hey Miale what you doing" he questioned

The sound of Jasiri made Miale jump slightly and fell off onto the floor with a slight thud before looking over at him and smiled at him.

Guan jumps off of Katai's back, "I think I'll be fine now dad...you can go back now if you want." Guan smiles to him before running over to Miale, he notices Jasiri.

"Sorry if I made you jump" Jasiri replied with a slightly appolagetic tone to his voice "Didn't mean to"

"Dosn't matter Jas" Miale smirked looking up at Jasiri's green eyes before getting up onto all fours again shaking himself before looking over noticing Guan coming there way.
"Hey there Guan" Miale smirked

"Hi" Jasiri replied looking over Guan

"Hey there, who are you?" he grins to Jasiri.

"I'm Jasiri" Jasiri smirked at Guan "I guess you Guan guessing by what Miale called ya" he laughed shaking his head of partly grown black mane

"Yeah, I'm Guan." Guan smiles to Jasiri, "Is it ok to call ya Jas? I heard Miale calling you it." he grins.

"Yeah I'm fine with that" Jasiri smiled "Now we all met each other what we going to do?" Jasiri questioned.

"No idea...just been playing pounce with ya dad Guan so is it all right if we don't do that" Miale said sitting in the grass

"Yeah, I guess...I wanna do somethin' different. Any ideas before I suggest mine?" Guan looks at Miale and Jas.

"Nope" Miale replied falling onto his back looking up at the sky and glanced at Jasiri "How bout you Jas...you got any ideas?" he questioned

"Not really no....only places like the elephant graveyard and stuff" Jasiri replied "No way I'm going to places like that after what I heard happen to you and the others Miale"
