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

"It would probably be best if you tried not to think about it." Mila said calmly, and her face showed a comforting smile. She wanted to get away from the cave, for she had just slept in it, so she suggested something to Zeke. "Do you want to take a walk or something?" She asked Zeke.

[Zeke]

"That would probably do me some good," He said, getting up from the cold ground and stretching his sore muscles. Zeke proceeded to walk slowly out of the dark cave and into the blinding sunlight. The warmth felt good on his dark coat and there was a refreshing breeze sweeping through the air. "So Mila, what was it that you wanted?" He asked.

Tai felt comfortable laying on Nanati, he loved the feeling of her lips on his. But he could tell that something was bothering her, she didn't seem to want to kiss, so he broke the kiss. He stared into Nanati's eyes and said, "What's wrong? You don't seem very happy. Is something bothering you?"

[NightmareMoon]

Mila closely followed Zeke outside. Even though she wasn't in the cave for that long, her eyes had to readjust to the blinding light of the sun before she could go any farther. She listened as Zeke asked her a question and responded fairly quickly. "I'm just hungry... that's all. This place doesn't have much food. You know?" Mila took the lead and started walking towards where Nanati and Mila were previously sunbathing. It wasn't a very far walk to where they were at, so Mila barely finished her sentence and she saw two figures in the distance. Figuring Tai and Nanati were just talking, she walked a little closer until she realized what they were doing. "Oh crap.... haha" She laughed quietly. Zeke was right next to her, but she didn't look at his face, so she couldn't tell how he was reacting to this. "Wanna stay and make fun of them later, or ditch them?" She giggled again quietly.

"Your drowning me, Tai." Nanati giggled. "Not that I mind too much." At that moment, Nanati's stomach let out a loud growl, indicating the real reason of her discomfort. Oops... she thought, quite embarrassed that that had just occurred.

Tai stared at Nanati for a moment, then he nuzzled her and said, "We should go find some food."

[Zeke]

"Well it seems like they are stopping now," Zeke commented as the two parted their lips and began chatting. "What do ya say we get a little hunt situated?" He asked, taking a step forward and looking back at Mila for a response.

[NightmareMoon]

Mila's ears perked up at the mention of a hunt. "Yes!" She exclaimed immediately. Her hunger was almost unbearable to withstand for much longer. "Let's go ask them if they want to join" Mila blurted out, and began padding over towards where Nanati and Tai lay..

Nanati looked up into Tai's eyes. She smirked. "Sure, why not?" was her reply to Tai's earlier statement. She waited for Tai to get off of her, but before he could, Nanati caught something in her peripheral vision. She jolted her head towards the figure, and saw Mila approaching them.

[morri908]

Tai looked up to see Mila and Zeke headed toward him. He stood up, and waited for Mila and Zeke to get there. He figured that Mila was probably hungry too.

[Zeke]

"How's it goin lovebirds?" Zeke asked casually. "We are kinda hungry here, how about we head out to get some food?" Zeke felt the hunger begining to catch up to him, yet his mood was unchanged from when he woke up.

[morri908]

Tai looked at Zeke, he must have been watching what had previously happened.
"Actually, we were about to ask you the same question. So, were do you want to hunt today?"
