Nova and Neo

[Nukascar1]

"I was being stupid and I wasn't brave enough to do it myself so I got Vex to do it instead" he hung his head.

[Shadowfax]

"Well you've both learnt today not to mess with your grandma" Nova growled at the cubs.

"Sorry" Vex muttered though she didn't sound entirely truthful.

"Where's Neo? If you can't keep them in line Nova, i'll find someone who can!" She snapped.

[Nukascar1]

Neo smiled at his location scouting out the pridelands the rain had kept them all shelted in priderock. But Neo didn't even feel it he laughed watching them from a distance away."

"He said he was going out scouting"Taka said as a couple raindrops fell.

[Shadowfax]

"He's out spying again?" Nova said, looking away from Zira for a moment.

"Fine. Im going to fetch him. You will not go unpunished!" She snapped at Vex as she passed.

[Nukascar1]

Taka breathed a hugh sigh of relife "that was....unerving"

[Shadowfax]

"What were you both thinking?" Nova snarled, rounding on them both.

"I was bored. We've not had any lessons in weeks and it's so boring round here" Vex retorted.

[Nukascar1]

Taka stayed silent looking at the ground.

[Shadowfax]

"When's father going to let us fight?" Vex snarled.

"When we're ready" Nova replied.

"We've been waiting for months! Neither he nor Zira have a plan" Vex retorted.

Nova roared to silence her.

"Your only a cub, you don't understand" She growled.

"Whatever. Come on Taka"

[Nukascar1]

Taka nodded "okay"he murmmed ready to follow Vex

[Shadowfax]

"Your not going anywhere young lady" Nova called after her.

Vex stopped in her tracks.

"Go to the cave and stay there" Nova called.

At first, she didn't think she'd obey, but reluctantly she headed off.

"Taka, why did you lie?" Nova asked her son.
