[Closed to Kopalover ~Again~]

[Baya]

Baya frowned slightly as he realized he had hurt her a bit more than he intended. Normally, he wouldn't care what he did to his opponents, but since this was more of a "friendly" fight. Baya smirked as he gently ran his tongue over her wound, figuring it would heal up better that way. "Can't have you going back to your mum with a damaged nose." Baya growled with a smirk.

Vitani gasped when Baya licked her wound then she blushed. "Uh-um, T-thanks Baya!" Smiling up at him with a slight twinkle in her Cyan-blue eyes. It stopped bleeding, and she nodded her head towards home. "Shall we go back? Or should we wait?" Stepping an inch closer to Baya, wondering if he would rather be alone with her or if he'd rather be around the giant mass of lions that watched Tupa and him closely. "If you would rather be alone, we could go back to the Pridelands and plan the attack? After all, it's best to plan ahead then to just put your head in the game."

Pausing then gazing down to his muscles. "You wouldn't have gotten those without planning ahead, I mean-if you didn't plan your life, you... wouldn't be here." Looking to the ground, imagining what she would be doing without Baya, somehow, it was impossible to.

[Time skip? ]

[Baya]

Baya smirked as he bit onto her nose teasingly. "Nothing in my life is planned. It would be boring otherwise." Baya pointed out. "I'm good either way. Whatever you want." Baya murmured as a response to her question. She and him had only spent a brief moment together, but there was alot battle told one about another. For example, Baya learned he had an ounce of concern for Vitani, as he could not see her injured without actually FEELING.

[You want to initiate it? I donno what you would want me to say in the first post ;D]

[I shall:3]

Another hot morning rolled into the Outlands, the sun scorched the red skies. Some of the termite mounds have fallen over in the past few weeks. Since the fun battle Baya and Vitani had, it has been around 7 weeks. Tupa has trained Nuka, and he's gotten plenty of muscles now. Yet, still can't beat her but still tries and tries as hard as he can.

The pride was still asleep, as the sun licked it's way into the den and shined in Tupa's eyes. Smiling, she kicked Nuka. "It's still early, but come. Training doesn't wait." Whispering into his ear, so she wouldn't wake Zira. As she still didn't notice Nuka's new muscles and didn't know about the training he has been doing. As he has learned more through a female a few younger than her than his own mother who raised him like that.

Tupa got up, and walked out of the den. Nuka quickly followed behind her, his new healthy mane flowing in the humid wind that hit them soon after they exited the den. "Nuka, today. You will be going to the Pridelands and making a kill." Talking to him as he walked up beside her. "The meal of the day is Zebra." Saying before jumping onto the tree branch, dodging a crocodile. Then leaping to the green blades of grass that flowed in the wind. "Come." She said, walking away from the ledge.

~~

Vitani heard footsteps leaving the den, and figured it was Tupa and Nuka. Little did they know, Vitani knew all about Nuka's training. Tupa told Baya, Baya told Vitani. It worked in one big chain. Once Baya knew, so did Vitani. Baya slept beside her, closer than he did 7 weeks before. Her nose was almost cleared of the scratches and her mother didn't even care about them.

Getting up, she stretched and walked over to the tiny water hole they had. It dripped from above the termite mound. Yet, no lion or lioness ventured up there as it was a vary steep climb. Only the bravest lions went up there, and some didn't come back, alive. Taking a drink, then she left the termite mound and laid outside in the feverish sun.

Her day would probably consist of being with Baya. The handsome lion with brown fur, a black mane and a white muzzle. His green eyes were shining, and she loved getting lost in them. Their figures were close, though Vitani was skinnier because Baya was all muscle and barley any fat. Making him look larger than her.

Little did they both know, their hearts yearned for one another. As did Tupa and Nuka. Every touch Vitani shared with Baya sent a tingle down her spine, she only hoped the same happened to him. She didn't want to say anything about the way she felt, as if he didn't feel the same she would be heartbroken, and embarrassed. Does he feel the same? She kept asking herself.

[Baya]

Nuka groaned as he was nudged awake by Tupa, his eyes slowly opening. He looked up at her Magenta eyes and frowned slightly at having to be woken up, but sort of glad it was by her. In the time that had passed, he had grown stronger thanks to Tupa. Before he was hesitant about trusting anyone else besides his mother with things like training, but along came Tupa to make him far stronger than he ever could have alone. Nuka had to admit, he had taking much of a liking to her, feeling the need to please her as much as his mother. Was it love? He didn't know. Though he wasn't about to say anything to the rough rogue lioness, because he knew she probably didn't feel the same way.

Nuka followed after her quickly, easily gripping logs and dodging crocodiles alongside her, staying silent in his pursuit. When he made his way on the familiar prideland grass, he let out a bit of a sigh. "You know I was born in the pride lands. Almost forget that sometimes..." Nuka murmured as he walked alongside Tupa.

Baya and Vitani's time together had been something of concern to Zira, but to Baya it was simply amusing. He and her fought on a regular basis, not really drawing blood or wanting to kill each other of course. There were times that Baya would win, and there were times Vitani would win. Either way, they both came out smirking and happy with the outcome. Though the thrill Baya got from battle dragged on whenever Vitani was around. Even when he didn't fight her, being in her presence made him feel like he had purpose. There were times where they got so close, that it seemed a tad bit Taboo in his mind. They were having very intimate moments where they just stop and either gaze into each others eyes or give each other licks with the excuse of cleaning each other. Of course, there was never any wounds that needed be cleaned.

When Baya awoke, he noticed Vitani was not there. He knew it was recent, because her scent was still next to him, so she probably went out for her routine drink. He stretched, and let out a low growl as he slowly made his way out of the den. Sure enough, he spotted her lying in the sun, and made his way towards her. He placed his chin down on her head from behind. "You are very open to an attack right now. Though I'll spare that notion right in the morning." Baya purred.

[Kopalover]

Tupa turned and looked at him with a weird expression. "After you catch that Zebra, you can tell the story to me over breakfast." Now go, pushing him flank making him run towards the herd of black and white striped horses. She watched him hunt. He stayed low to the ground and mimicked every move she showed him. Looking to the ground, the dug her claws in and laid down. Pulling grass from the roots and drawing circles in the dirt, occasionally looking up at Nuka to check if he was doing okay.

Besides that, she thought about the time she spent with Nuka. The way they bonded and how close they were. Nowadays, he almost never talked to him mother and stayed around Tupa. Before, he didn't like Tupa at all. In response, she has gained strong feelings for Nuka. Baya wouldn't like this, as he believed in fighting and not love. Though, she hasn't been around Baya much in the past few weeks. Training Nuka took up most her time and energy. "Come on!" She yelled over to Nuka with a smirk. For a first time Zebra hunter, she was doing very, very well.

Vitani purred in response, and lifted her head to look into his eyes. "It's a very beautiful day today. Spare me, King Baya." Winking up at him, laughing and licking his face. "You had d-dirt on your face. I got it for you." Saying so she wouldn't embarrass herself. Looking out into the Outlands again, she sighed. "So, what to do today?" Gazing at Baya once again, looking into his light green eyes.

Mostly, all day they basically talked. Shared stories and complimented each other on new fighting techniques or mainly just how they looked that day. She brushed her claws through his dark mane, ridding of any tangles caused by moving in the night. Then curled a long strand around her finger, she pulled away and a small curl formed.
