Journey Of The Shadow

[LilTiger]

Laini got down from the skull. Then, she grabbed a bone the size Kivuli said. Then, she put the bone infront of her. Then, she grabbed it again with her paw. Then, she slammed it down. There were little peices of bones. "Kivuli, how's that?" Laini asked with a grin.

[KingKivuli]

Laini's strength impressed Kivuli. It had taking him training to be able to break bones that big. Maybe she had been training too. Either way he saw there was a bit of s struggle when she did it. Non the less she was more pwerful then imagined Wow im impressed. Start training on larger bones. Take it easy though, the bones get alot stronger, you wont be able too break them first try, you need to train.

[LilTiger]

Laini was happy the Kivuli was inpressed. "You're welcome king."Laini said with a smile. She went over to the bones and grabbed a little lager one from the last. Instead, she decided to do it a different way. She then went on top of a skull.Then, she thought abotu it, she got down and decided to do it the old way.

Laini the dropped it. Then, she picked up with her paw. Then, dropped it again, it clattered into tiny peices. But before you tell me, I'm waiting for Kokota to finish.

[Moka]

Kokota looked across the graveyard at all the broken bones. Most of them were way too large for any lion to break. He narrowed his eyes to take in the entire graveyard, spotting a smaller, out-of-place skeleton that was barely visible. He stared at it, trying to identify it. "Kivuli, look. Do you see that?" he nodded towards the skeleton. "It's way too small to be an elephant. Maybe a hyena? Let's check it out."

[LilTiger]

Laini heard what Kokota said. "Very strange, you're right Kokota, let's go check it out. Then, Laini's claws snapped out and started walking towards the strange skull. "Wonder what king of animal is, maybe a hyena, but possibly a zebra skull." Laini took oen more step and wited for Kokota to say something.

[KingKivuli]

Kivuli followed his friends to the stange skeleton. When he arrived he took a closer look. It did look like hyena. It was the right size. Kivuli dragged the body out to look closer Oh yeah thats a hyena, but somethings odd. Kivuli leant down. It still had a faint smell about it. He licke it. There was still a taste left. That body was a fresh kill. By the great kings. He died not long ago. Other hyenas must have been so desprite, they killed and ate their own

"They'll be alright" Sarabi said, moving up to her longtime friend and fellow huntress, Sarafina. "Scar spends his hours brooding in his den. He'll never suspect a thing, the lazy old dung beetle." Far from speaking the words with affection, as Sarabi might once have done to her beloved mate Mufasa. They were instead filled with disdain and contempt.

"Come with me. We have to do our best to get them some food. Their training all day without sustenance will make them weaker, not stronger."

[NightyByeSparrow]

Sarafina looked at her companion, and weakly smiled. The lioness smiling had been a very rare sight since her daughter had suddenly disappeared.

"I sure hope they'll be alright. Not like Scar cared about the lions and his daughter anyways, though..."

She sighed and realized Sarabi was right; they were going to need food, as little as there was now. "I'll come with you, Sarabi. But where to?"

[Mike]

"I knowwhat you mean" Sarabi said dispiritedly. "Who can tell where we can find food anymore? Scar's done away with everything beautiful this land used to have. We'll have to travel far out, past the usual hunting grounds to even stand a chance. It'll be a tough trek, but there's nothing for it. We've got to do our part for the pride."

Her spirits bolstered by Sarafina's declaration of support and companionship, Sarabi set off with her friend across the now-desolate pridelands. They passed dried waterholes, and even Rafiki's great tree showed signs of decay and illness from lack of water. Sarabi kept up a speedy pace, hoping to make a quick kill and get the bounty back to the training lions before night fell.

[NightyByeSparrow]

Sarafina couldn't help but sigh. Thanks to Scar's fierce watch over the lionesses, Sarafina hadn't gone out on a decent hunt for quite a while now. Nonetheless, she realized now that this was indeed the right thing to do at the moment.

"I'll do it. Going farther than the usual hunting grounds is what we need to do right now, if we all don't want to starve."

Sarafina's eyes shone with some determination as she followed Sarabi past the nearly lifeless Pridelands. She knew it would take some time now until they found some prey to take down. This was the wrong time for negativity to stop her now.

Great kings. We must be there soon..
