    OOC: I would have to agree, but it's just a story. Maybe next time we should use a more common animal for the attack, such as a hyena or another lion?


    IC: Raziya grunted at the lioness. "There goes breakfast, lunch, and dinner," she says unhappily.

    OOC: I have to agree too, but we need something to put action in the thread :p Any ideas for potential plots?

    [fancypost bgcolor=transparent bordercolor=transparent; height: 1; overflow: auto; width: 350px; font-family: georgia; font-size: 7pt; color: default; letter-spacing: 0px; text-transform:][ooc.] heynas wouldn't attack, they're scavengers. but lion or maybe quite a few of the lionesses give birth to cubs which attracts the attention of neighboring prides?

    OOC: well that'd mean that Babechi would have to take them as his mates.. :P He'll have more than one, but only one can be queen. But a good idea.

    Maybe Kovution can attack with his new pride of outlaws, you know. Try to take over, Sarabi could run away and cause comotion with Astrid, Causing the pride to panic and Kovu could die. Causing his old pride to join this one? Then someone finds Sarabi in the outlands.

    [fancypost bgcolor=transparent bordercolor=transparent; height: 1; overflow: auto; width: 350px; font-family: georgia; font-size: 7pt; color: default; letter-spacing: 0px; text-transform:][ooc.] Male lions actually usually breed with at least half the lionesses in a pride at any given time to keep up size. What if he sired the cubs and from the lionesses he bred with, chose who he thought would be the best queen for the pride?

    ooc: Good idea, at least it'll make this less of a competition :3
    ic: Babechi rose to his paws, a small roar escaping his parted jaws, his gaze darting around the area in search of the other lionesses. At the sight of Neera, Sarabi and Zora, along with few other lionesses, the lion trotted forward, his large mane jiggling in the soft breeze. His round ears twitched, flicking away the flies that had settled upon them. "What's going on here?" the male demanded in a deep voice as he joined them.

    " Sarabi got hurt. Astrid seems fine, but Sarabi's limping. I hear a hippo, then her roar. I ran over when I saw her. Thats all I know, Babechi. "


    Neera looked at the handsome lion, giving him all the information she knew.

    The male let out a soft grunt as he strode closer to the lioness and her cub, sniffing them cautiously. He had to know whether or not they were injured. To his relief, the cub was fine. She would be a good addition to the pride. But he was slightly concerned for Sarabi. It was in his instincts to move on, leave the lioness alone when she could not provide for the pride, but she had her cub and needed the pride's support. He let out a soft murmur, his ears twitching gently. "We should head back towards the larger trees, that way we can keep all the cubs in view and you can rest." he murmured before turning towards Neera and Zora, "Did you two have any successful hunts?" the lion asked, his ears pricking in interest. If worst came to worst, he'd have to step into the hunt. It was not normal for male lions to hunt, but since he had spent part of his life alone, he had learned to hunt.

    [fancypost bgcolor=transparent bordercolor=transparent; height: 1; overflow: auto; width: 350px; font-family: georgia; font-size: 7pt; color: default; letter-spacing: 0px; text-transform:][ic.] Zora lifted her head, a frown coming to her lips as he asked about their hunt. "No, unfortunately. The herd we were after got scared and moved during the hippo charge. If you'd like, we can continue hunting while you take Sarabi and Astrid back to the rest of the pride," She offered, glancing between the group.

    [align=center][fancypost bgcolor=; border: 0px solid transparent; font-family: georgia; color: black; font-size: 30px; text-align: right; margin-bottom: -10px; text-shadow: 1px 1px white, 1px -1px white, -1px 1px white, -1px -1px white;]Awe[/fancypost][fancypost bgcolor=; border: 4px ridge white; background:url(http://fc03.deviantart.net/fs7…_by_lavaspawn-d4b31t2.jpg); height: 235pt; width: 350pt; font-family: andale mono; color: black; text-align: justify;]

    "No, no, it's alright. You can hunt in the dark, it's easier that way for you guys to move without getting spotted. But watch out for heyena's. Sarabi caught a water buffalo before and there's enough for everyone to share, so we should head back." he murmured gently as he glanced towards Sarabi and her cub.

    [fancypost bgcolor=transparent bordercolor=transparent; height: 1; overflow: auto; width: 350px; font-family: georgia; font-size: 7pt; color: default; letter-spacing: 0px; text-transform:][ic.] The lioness nodded, looking over at Sarabi. "Do you want me to run ahead and tell the rest of the pride that Sarabi's going to need someone to watch Astrid while we patch her up?"

    [align=center][fancypost bgcolor=; border: 0px solid transparent; font-family: georgia; color: black; font-size: 30px; text-align: right; margin-bottom: -10px; text-shadow: 1px 1px white, 1px -1px white, -1px 1px white, -1px -1px white;]Awe[/fancypost][fancypost bgcolor=; border: 4px ridge white; background:url(http://fc03.deviantart.net/fs7…_by_lavaspawn-d4b31t2.jpg); height: 235pt; width: 350pt; font-family: andale mono; color: black; text-align: justify;]

    "I'll do that myself, just stay with Sarabi." he told her, his tail gently resting on her shoulder as he padded past. He then picked up a trot as he hurried off towards camp, wanting to let everyone know that they were returning with an injured lioness and that someone should look after her cub. He let out a summoning roar as he approached the others.

    [fancypost bgcolor=transparent bordercolor=transparent; height: 1; overflow: auto; width: 350px; font-family: georgia; font-size: 7pt; color: default; letter-spacing: 0px; text-transform:][ic.] The lioness nodded, smiling slightly as he trotted away. Turning towards Sarabi, Zora smiled gently. "Do you want to lay down, Sarabi?" She asked, concerned for the other lioness.

    "I think I will sit actually". Her voice was sweetened, She smiles at them, "Thankyou, Astrid had merely been playing with the hippo's baby. SHe didn't know any better". Astrid was staring at her paws feeling that it was at her fault her mum got hurt. "It is fine Astrid I will live, in the mean time my leg will be time by the time darkness comes, I will see if I can hunt with you. I am a better hunter during the night".


    I think I will roleplay Kovu a tinsy bit.


    Kovu lays down on his rock, twitching his white tail, One of the darker collered lionesses looks up at him, She had been captured, but had also been his first lioness. "Sir, The herds have begun to migrate to Babechi's pride land, And water is little". She bows her head respectfully. Kovu growls, "Then we will scavange what we can, Seek out the hyena's, they will go into Babechi's land, probably pick off a sickened baby cow or something. Maybe even disrupt one of his hunts if he has one tonight".

    [fancypost bgcolor=transparent bordercolor=transparent; height: 1; overflow: auto; width: 350px; font-family: georgia; font-size: 7pt; color: default; letter-spacing: 0px; text-transform:][ic.] Zora tilted her head, brow furrowing. "It was a misunderstanding between species," She agreed with a nod. "Sarabi, you really should rest for a few days. It might just be a cut but we don't want it to get worse. The most important thing for you to do is rest," She insisted. "The herds will be close to the pride for a few days and we live near a well fed watering hole; and you made a very impressive hunt earlier," She smiled at the lioness. "Please, just, relax. Your too important to be getting injured."

    Neera thought for a moment, then raced up to Babechi. Nervously, she nudged him to get his attention.


    " I'll watch Astrid, if thats alright? "


    Neera looked at the lion, hoping she would be allowed to take on the task. She had had a cub before, until it was murdered by a hyena. Neera regretted leaving the cub for even a moment, when it had slipped away. Babechi knew what happened with the cub, so it wouldn't be shocking if he declined her offer.

    [align=center][fancypost bgcolor=; border: 0px solid transparent; font-family: georgia; color: black; font-size: 30px; text-align: right; margin-bottom: -10px; text-shadow: 1px 1px white, 1px -1px white, -1px 1px white, -1px -1px white;]Awe[/fancypost][fancypost bgcolor=; border: 4px ridge white; background:url(http://fc03.deviantart.net/fs7…_by_lavaspawn-d4b31t2.jpg); height: 235pt; width: 350pt; font-family: andale mono; color: black; text-align: justify;]
    [fancypost bgcolor=white; border: 2px solid white; overflow: auto; height: 160pt; width: 275pt; opacity: 0.7; margin-top: 45px;]
    Babechi turned his head towards the lioness, his eyes meeting hers for a moment before he dipped his head. "Very well. But make sure she doesn't stray." he murmured before he turned back to his tracks. He lifted his gaze towards the other lions, searching out his daughter and son.
