"Sorry but I feel outnumbered whilst I'm around adults..." Jaini sighs as he lays down.Quote:

"I guess so..." Jaini looks around for the cubs.Quote:

" Dad..... u know we won't run off!!" said Blitz "You and Klowd's dad are near us, is impossible to run off!"
"They're......waaaay smaller than me." Jaini looks and observes the two sleeping cubs.Quote:

"They're there." Asha points out the two sleeping cubs to Jaini.
"Hello?" Jaini pokes one of the cubs.
" arf ok...when are we going to arrive there!?" he asked being impatient.
(OOC: Okay, where did Kirosa and Jaini come from?:confused: I'm confused when all these new characters are just suddenly introduced and I'm not clued in as to where from or who they are. =/)
Trodding away slowly, Aysha suddenly heard the sound Kimi's distant voice behind her and abruptly stopped, head down on the unbalanced hill. The thick dust being blown by the east wind, caused her to move a little to the side of avoid the sandy haze.Quote:

"You want me for something?" Kimi smiles to Aysha, having heard his name, "I'm here..." he purrs a little happily.
"Oh, Kimi. Well, I was either about to head back to the dens or take a walk around the pridelands a little." She kindly spoke with an odd expression.
She silently strolled back up the uneven mound to Kimi.
"Kryken told me a bit about you've been working constantly during the day and so I just thought you might get hungry. I caught an antelope for you, it's in the den right now if you're hungry."
" Yeah!! i can't wait to arrive there!! let us going running please!!" said Klowd
"Sure Klowd, seems like Simba's a bit slow today," Kryken laughed picking up Klowd by his muzzle as they both run towards the graveyard in joy.
"Cool Dad!!!! run run!!!come on my personal horse" said Klowd laughing
" Look dad!! they are running!!"said Blitz pointing at Kryken and Klowd.
"Okay.." Aysha agreed and returned back into the den.Quote:

Kimi laughs a little to Aysha, "You're too kind... I've just eaten though, so there's no point me eating any more... someone else can eat the antelope, but thanks anyway."
Kimi tiredly lies down, trying to get a little sleep in the shade.
"No..." Kiros sighs, still carrying Blizzard along to the destination point. "I'm scared for your safety." he keeps the cub in his mouth, Simba padding alongside them.
"I guess..." Aysha looked back at Kimi "It's nice to meet you...my name's Aysha.." she smiled half-heartedly "If you're hungry, you can have the antelope I caught earlier. It's in the other den...I think I'm just go outside by myself for a bit." Aysha smiled and gave Kina a friendly nuzzle as she walks back out of the cavern and looked for a nice waterhole.
" WOha!! I can see some elephants from here!!!" said Klowd exited.
"Unfortunately, they're dead Klowd."
" I see Dad..." said Klowd " Let me down please" he said.
" Yeah Dad... we arrived let us go and explore now" said Blitz
:hmm: :hmm: " ok...." said Blitz looking at Klowd and his father.
OFF: I have returned from my brief haitus.
In the days since his arrival at pride rock, Zeal had grown somewhat attached to the old traveller's cubs. For their part, Azina and Akadi looked up to the lion/leopard hybrid as something of a surrogate father. Although the cubs were often distressed by Zeal's unlion-like behavior of climbing trees. Particularly when Zeal would use this in order to "get the drop on" the cubs.
Zeal silently leaped out from one of the low branches of a small tree, landing directly in front of Akadi. The young cub jumped in momentary fear and surprise.. then laughed.
"You're so weird!" Akadi chuckled, pouncing on Zeal. It was then that he looked up and saw Azina hanging from one of the branches.. just as she leaped out of the branch and pounced on him.
"Gotcha brother!" Azina laughed.
"See, your sister is a fast learner..."
" Yes Dad...you told me that before....but we arrive now to the elephant graveyard! let me go walking here!"
Jaini sighs, "Mum, they're not talking..."
"Uh...sor-ry..." Jaini steps back a few steps.
"My mum said I could play with you. I'm bored stiff since my dad left..." Jaini sighs as his ears perk down.
Aysha lapped up some water from the waterhole before returning her den.Quote:

"Yeah, man, I'm starving!" Kina grins, gobbling some of the antelope, "Thanks!" he smiles to Aysha. Kimi is asleep next to the antelope, having had a few bites before sleeping.
"Yes..." Kiros sighs to Blizzard, "You get to look around, then we're leaving." he smiles.
"I'm glad you like it.." Aysha smiled, lying down.

"Alright then...we'll let them go..." Kryken dropped Klowd "But stay close, don't want ya getting lost now." he said worriedly.
" Don't worry about me Dad" said Klowd " Heya mate let's go!! we arrive!"
" Yeah! awesome place!!" said Blitz running towards Klowd and Kryken. Then both started walking inside the graveyard.
" If so... you don't need to be so close to us Dad, we can go alone we are not going to run off don't worry" said Blitz
"i hate being a cub, we can't do anything alone, always has to be someone with us" whispered Blitz to Klowd.
" Yeah mate even in this place with nobody we have to come with our parents." The cubs faces changed a little to a bit angry expression.
"It's been ages since...perhaps the hyenas have already found new grounds to live on. One can't be too sure. Klowd, stay close to Blizzard and don't leave me, Simba or Kiros' sight." Kryken directed at the two cubs "You can play pounce, but don't leave each other's sight. Maybe Simba can give me a bit in depth of history about this place, while the other play." he smiled.
Both sighed " We don't wanna play, we only want to explore this site! we can play everywhere in the pridelands , for one that that we leave them we want to explore this lands!". Blitz thought a little "Heh Dad... and ya don't wanna listen the history about this place?" said smiling. " Let's see if we have luck" whispered to Klowd.
" uhmm no ty...Grandad, maybe after we only want to explore this place, but maybe my Dad and Klowd's Dad yes" he smiled.
"Hmm...maybe later..." Kryken lied on the dusty ground.
" Ok you can rest here... and we can go to explore? :D
"Hi, er, do you mind if i join you?" Called Sari coming over.
" eh ... Hi" said Klowd " You two can stay here don't worry nothing will happen to us, if something happens we'll run back okay?" said Blitz
Blitz sighs " i know Dad... i know you are not stupid but we aren't neither... so nothing will happen to us"
" Dad!! if we get injured we are going to return here running, or we can shout ya or something!! Don't worry please!."said Blitz looking at is father's eyes.
"I don't intend to stay here by myself, what makes you think I'm going to rest here?" Kryken chuckled following his son "I'm not going to leave my son with you guys." He nuzzled Klowd lovingly.
" Dad don't worry nothing will happen to me going with Kiros and Simba we are only 2 cubs!" said Klowd to his father.
Blitz sighed " I don't know how was your life when you was a cub Dad.... but I hope you could do more things that i do..." said a little bit sad.
"Geez, you really expect Kiros and Simba to handle the job of my son?" Kryken scoffed "Kiros, Simba, I think I can handle myself and my own son's care, I'm not helpless or defenseless, thanks, and I really don't think you should treat me like I am either." he directed at Kiros and Simba "I'm only here to follow you because I care for you Klowd, and if anything, absolutely anything happened to you, you'll be my first priority, and you are!" he sighed "But...if you really don't want me, then I'll return to the pridelands and let you four enjoy the fun..." he sighed sharply "and yes, when I was a cub I used to be just as naughty as Klowd and Blizzard and we definitely don't want anything happening to you." Kryken nuzzled Klowd "Oh and btw Simba, I really don't appreciate the way you like to always take on every job and glory and make everyone else look like an innocent bystander. I thank you for your kind offers, but when it comes deep down to parenting my cub, thanks but I really think that I can handle it myself. He's my cub after all and I think I know how to look over my own young." He simpled walked away from Kiros and Simba as he nuzzles Klowd, staying close by to him.
"The good news is though, my dad is returning in a few days so I'm happy." Jaini smiles as he playfully pounces on top of Kozi and Kirosa.Quote:

"That's sad..." Kirosa and Kozi both say sadly to Jaini, "Ok, we'll play!" Kozi grins cheerfully.
Kozi pounces on Jaini, pinning the larger lion down. Kozi is very strong for his size. Kirosa pounces on top of Kozi, laughing.
Kryken sighed and sat there thinking a bit of what he said...ashamed he walked up to Simba flushed red "I'm sorry...I-I didn't mean it like that Simba and Kiros...I just..." he sighed once more "I don't know..." He looked down "I just don't want to seem useless...I mean, with you doing everything there is and I'm just here...doing nothing...I'm extremely sorry for what I've said..." he slowly walked away "I guess...I always try to pretend that I'm tough than everyone else and that I don't need anyone...but...I'm not...I just wanted my son...to look up to his Dad...instead of looking at someone who's weak...and I guess that's who I've become. A weaker person than I am now, standing before you for pretending to be someone I'm not...for being...a rude, ungrateful lion...who doesn't deserve any of your kindness and offers..." Kryken said sadly as a tear slid across his cheek "and I guess...I wanted to fit in with everyone else...seeing as they do everything...and...I don't know...me being...alone...I'm sorry Simba...Kiros...I...wasn't thinking when I said that...being full of pride....I..." he sighed "I'll leave your lands immediately...I'm sorry..." he slowly walked out, crying.
"Yeah, I got ya alright!" Jaini laughs playfully.Quote:

Kiros nods his head in agreement, "You would think he would be a little appreciative of our care for his son..."
Kirosa and Kozi grin as the slightly larger lion pounces on top of them. "Looks like you got us!" they laugh, pinned under Jaini.
