The Pride Lands (Zeke, NM, kovu42, morri908)

[NightmareMoon]

Mila blushed at Tai's last comment. "I'm Mila... you can call me Mi if you want." She replied. "Tai... I like that name." She said, and looked over towards the cave her companions were in. "What are you doing out here anyway, Tai?" She asked.

[morri908]

Tai stared into space thinking of his past for a moment, after a few minutes pasted he said, "I've been a rogue almost my entire life, my mom died before I was fully grown, and I never met my father. But, a pride took me in a few weeks after my mother died, I just recently left, because me and the leader didn't get along very well, and I didn't want to cause any problems or get killed by him." " How about you, Mila, what are you doing out here, alone?"

[NightmareMoon]

"Wow... sounds like you have had a hard life.." Mila said. When Taisaku asked her the same question, Mila responded truthfully. "Oh, I'm not alone, I'm with two lions that I've been traveling with for a while now. I just had to get some fresh air and walk around... and that's how I found you." Mila felt her pain in her stomach coming back, so she collapsed on the floor and waited for it to go away.

Taisaku was thinking about the response that Mila had given, he was worried that these other two lions would attack him on site, if they found out about him talking to Mila, he was sure that one of them was her mate.. Suddenly Mila dropped to the ground, he ran over, and said "what's wrong?"

[NightmareMoon]

"Stomach pain... it's been happening all day." Mila said, with her eyes closed. "I don't know what's wrong with me."

[morri908]

Taisaku thought about it, there could be multiple things wrong, but with the thought of her being around other lions for a while, and the thought of her having a mate. He thought he had it pinned down, so he began to question her about it. His first question was, "How long have you been having these pains, is this the first day, or has this been happening for a while." He proceeded to ask, " And not that it's any of my business, but, when was the last time you mated?"

[NightmareMoon]

"Second day... It wasn't as bad yesterday though." She muttered. When Tai asked a second question, she sat up. "You don't think I'm..." Mila stopped mid-sentence. It was a possibility. She didn't want to remember that day, but bad memories kept coming back to her. She didn't want to remember it, and she didn't want to accept what Tai was about to say either.

"Pregnant?, It's a possibility, I've seen many pregnant lionesses, I think that you might be. But, it's not certain yet, I guess we will find out soon enough." "Shouldn't you be heading back to your friends soon? I'm sure they are worried about you." Tai looked around for a place that other lions would stay at, after seeing the rocks on the horizon, he said, "I bet they are at those rocks, aren't they?"

[NightmareMoon]

"Yes, they are." Mila said, quite depressed. She didn't know how to handle this. Pregnant? I can't handle myself, let alone a cub... she looked towards the rocks in the distance. "If you want to come, I will introduce you. I assume you have nowhere to go, and you seem very friendly." Mila said. She sat up, tall and waited for a reply from the larger lion.

[morri908]

Taisaku wasn't sure if he should go with her or not, he was still kinda afraid to deal with the other two lions, he would be outnumbered, and he was sure that they wouldn't like the fact that 1. Mila was pregnant, and 2. She had brought another lion to them. So he replied, "Yeah, I would like to come, and no I don't have a family anymore, so I really don't have anywhere to go."
