Marrone looked to Alma, "When the rainy season ends, its crowning time. I don't want to kill tradition, but Alma hes not ready. Id trust Addana with the throne before I trust Nyembe." he muttered. He watched Maximus and the other lions clean the dens and he stared into the green jungle, "Its going to be a long season m'love." he sighed.

Addana oomphed as she was knocked out of the way. She landed hard on her shoulder, and winced as a sickening crack echoed through her mind. The air was rushed from her lungs, and she lay there for a moment, stunned, before the fiery pain laced its way up through her spine and arm. Addana groaned softly, but she bit her tongue to not release anymore signs of weakness. She struggled to her paws, leaving her injured one above ground. "I'm fine," she growled softly to Mheetu, red fringing her vision. "But are you hurt?" She was much more interested in his wellbeing after he had taken the brunt of impact. She flicked her ear towards Tempesta and Delano, but otherwise ignored them.

Mheetu smiled at Addana, "I've taken a few hits, ill be alright. I'm sorry Addana. I didn't want you to get trampled." he added and reclined back to his haunches. Mheetu looked to Delano and Tempesta and nodded, he could feel the pain jolting through his body and he let out a exhausted breath laying down a moment.

Tempesta nodded to Addana and noticed how she ignored her and she huffed out her nostrils and looked to Mheetu. "You did a good job. Thanks for saving her." he added. She turned back to Delano and her eyes looked up at him, [b]"Yes? You wanted to speak to me." she said stepping away from Mheetu and Addana. "You guys eat some meat and relax a moment." she ordered.


Mheetu looked to Tempesta, "Well...Im part of the pride arent I?" he said with a smile. He ripped into the Wildebeests side and got some fresh meat inside his tummy. Relaxing on the cool muddy grass he laid there and licked the blood off his muzzle and his mossy green eyes looked at Addana. "I'm sorry about how rude i was the other day." he admitted.

Tempesta looked at Delano and reclined to her haunches, "Well..?" she said softly.

[DGFone]

Delano looked at the ground, not sure where to begin. "Well, I, um... well, first I would like to apologize for being... for being rude to you back there." He took a deep breath, stalling in order to think of what to say next. "Well, Mheetu and I, I taught him how to fight... well started, at least... Well afterwards, he wanted to take a break, but then he said something..." He tried to continue, but couldn't find the words. He saw Tempesta frown and gulped nervously. This was not going well at all.

Delano sighed. Now was the time. "So he said... he said that I well, err..." another pause. Tempesta looked like she was getting ready to leave him. Delano panicked. "He said that I liked you!" he blurted out finally, only to start hyperventilating from his fear of how Tempesta might react and his own desire to explain everything without having to say anything. "You know, not as friends, but more... I... I denied it, of course, but you know... we grew up together! And... and... what if he's right? What if we are more than friends? What if..." Delano had to take a few deep breaths just to get enough air at this point. "I'm just confused. I just don't know!" He finally confessed. "I just don't know, and I'm wondering... well, what do you think we are?"

By this point, Delano couldn't look at Tempesta in the eye anymore. He looked at the ground, dreading what Tempesta will say...

"So, Vitani," he began slowly, "This is a herd of widebeest... That's.... Okay, I... I need to get closer to you. If we're going to be wed, we have to get closer. I... Have you ever heard of the Balance?"

"Hey, Dyanna! You want to play hide and seek?" he called, excited with something to do.

[Nitro]

"You are forgiven," Addana said, eying him strangely. She had not made him out to be the type to admit he was wrong. "But I am also at fault. It was not within my right to snap at you over something as trivial as a misplaced comment made simply out of ignorance, and not malice." She hesitated slightly, suddenly afraid she had revealed too much about herself. To distract herself, she took a bite out of her kill and starting grooming her chest fur.

[Kopalover]

Vitani's mind went blank with everything Nyembe was loading in. "What's," She paused. "Balance?" She questioned her future mate. Her mind was also trying to figure out if she loved Nyembe or not. She knew her father wanted her to love and respect Nyembe to. Confused, didn't know what to do she tried to get closer to Nyembe.

[KingKovu44]

OOC: I reclaim Nyembe.

"The Balance is sort of like your 'Circle of Life'," Nyembe said, moving a bit closer to Vitani. "So, do you have any siblings?" he asked.

[Kopalover]

Her face cringed, "Oh." She said, acting as she made a fool of herself. Vitani smiled and remembered her brother. "Yeah, king of the Pridelands." She paused. "His name is Simba." Her smiled brightened the area they were in. "Heard of him?" She asked pleasantly. Moving closer to Nyembe, she tilted her head.

[TheLionQueen]

Alma looked at Marrone, "Listen if you really don't believe Nyembe would be a good king I understand but, maybe he could make a good king." Alma said, "Just test him out leave him to control the pride for a day or two and we will just stay on the top of the waterfall where they can't see us and watch him."
