Growing Up [Private: TheLastLion & Stormy]

[Stormy]

(Who says that? Sadie or Kaylee?)

They followed as Nicki hopped across the tall trees and eventually stops on one of them. “Why on earth are you here?!” Nicki shouted down from above. “You can’t leave me alone for two seconds, can you?!” She cried out. “What, I assume you don’t trust me to stay alive out here either?”

[TheLastLion]

(Kaylee)

"Nicki, we need to get out of here, now." Said Sadie.

[Stormy]

“How about YOU get out of here, now?” Nicki retorted. “I can’t believe you guys followed me here!” She cried.

[TheLastLion]

"Nicki, someone is following us and I don't think they're friendly types, either..." Kaylee said frantically.

[Stormy]

“I don’t care!” Nicki replied. “You run then! You come even relatively close to me and I swear I’m going to hurl myself off of this tree!”

[TheLastLion]

"There's that scent again!" Growled an unfriendly voice which belonged to one of the leopards hunting Nicki and Snow the previous day.

[Stormy]

Nicki looked in the distance and her heart sunk to the bottom of her chest. “You guys need to leave!” She shouted to Kaylee and Sadie. “I’m fine up here!”

[TheLastLion]

"Nicki, who are those guys?" Kaylee asked.

[Stormy]

“I don’t know! Just get out of here!” Nicki repeated. “I’ll be fine!”

[TheLastLion]

"Nicki, wha-" Kaylee's reply was muted as one of the leopard's covered her mouth with his paw.
