(Private) NM and Zeke's RP!

[NightmareMoon]

Taro looked to the side. He really thought about Zeke's question, and didn't have a good answer to it. "No. There isn't." He replied. I don't have anything to live for, anyways. I'm better off dead. Taro thought, as depression and sadness soon overcame him. The things that his old pride had done towards Zeke's were unspeakable acts of evil. Taro wanted to tell Zeke that he left the pride, but the tone of Zeke's voice made him sound unconvincable. Taro soon wondered why he went along with all of the prides orders, knowing it was wrong.

Mila stared the unknown lion down, being cautious. She wanted to be ready, just in-case the lion got any funny ideas. Zeke wasn't going to be hurt while she was around.

[Zeke]

Zeke carefully studied the lion's reactions as he questioned him. He showed no resistance and his face was that of sorrow and regret. Maybe I did get to him, He thought and began to loosen his grip on Taro. "Tell me then," Zeke began as he stared down at him, "Why did you leave your pride to come follow us? Was it part of their plan?"

[NightmareMoon]

"I have left my old pride." Taro said, with a bit of depression in his voice. He was telling the truth, but after he said it, he knew the lion wouldn't believe him. He would just see it as a way to avoid being killed, even though that really wasn't the reason at all. "They... are pure evil. That's not what I want. I've told you this. But, if you want, you don't have to believe me. That's your decision, and I understand your reason for not wanting to trust me. Kill me if you wish." Taro said in a monotone voice.

[Zeke]

"I should kill you now, but," Zeke started and then backed up and away from Taro, letting him stand. He kept a close eye on him, however out of the corner of his eye, he could see Mila's stunned expression as he let go of Taro. "Seeing as though you have seen the sins of your former pride, I will let you live. However, cross us and I won't be as merciful," Zeke said in a very solemn tone. "What do you think you were trying to accomplish by following us anyway?"

[NightmareMoon]

Taro looked at Zeke. "Well, I wanted to tell you... but when I got near you, I figured you would consider me as an opponent. So I was going to follow you until I made a decision.." He said. Taro then looked over at Mila. "Who's this?" He asked.

[Zeke]

Zeke motioned his head over towards Mila. "This is Mila. Mila, this is Taro, my former prison guard at pride rock," He said in a very casual tone. "So Taro, why did you leave your old pride anyway?" Zeke asked, getting to the point.

[NightmareMoon]

"Your words and points had it's affects on me. I still can't believe I was part of such a monstrous evil." Taro replied, trying fully to answer Zeke's question in the shortest amount of time.

[Zeke]

"That's beside the point now, you have moved on and we have to forget," Zeke said, looking at Taro. "Hey," he started, looking around at the lush grass that surrounded them, "Do you know anything about this place? The Outlands isn't the best place to find food, and we were just going to take a look around here."

[NightmareMoon]

"I'm afraid I can't answer that question. This land is also foreign to me." Taro replied. He looked around at the peaceful surroundings. He figured that there must be some life here, the sudden change in abundance of life was astounding.

[Zeke]

"Well you are just as lost as we are then," Zeke chuckled as he turned around to face Mila. "We better get going then, we need the sun ahead of us during our return. You commin Taro?" He asked.
