Before I put it up, I'm just going to give a little summary to see if it'll catch your interest.
Imani and Jiraku live in the Pride of Falling Stones, with wonderful destinies set for their future. Imani is to be the next healer of the pride, while Jiraku holds the proud future of being the next king. One day, when a stranger comes to the pride, the two cub's lives will change forever. They are forced to run away to start a new life. Where will they go, and what will happen to them?
Crappy summary is crappy.
Without waiting any longer, here is the story!

Prologue
Moonlight shone on a small river as a group of lions passed by, walking as if they were ready to collapse at any given moment. All was quiet, and they seemed to be the only ones awake.
A dark red lioness spoke up. "Bone! When will we be to wherever we're going?" She sleepily glanced around. "We've been gone for almost a moon!*" She groaned
Bone, who appeared to be a black and white lion, just growled. "Be quiet, Alice! We get there when we get there! Do you think I'm the king of Starlight?*" Alice said nothing and they kept on walking.

The pride had finally found a resting place and they had finally gotten some sleep. Bone had decided that they would stay there for the day. Their shelter provided plenty of water, but no food. Later on in the day, Jamie, another lioness, had come to Bone, who was laying in the grass. It was very rainy.
"Bone?" Jamie asked quietly
Bone opened one eye. "What do you want?" He growled.
Jamie took her glance from Bone to the leaf-covered ground. "Percy is dead. He starved to death." She said sadly. She glanced back up. "Should we go back home? The prey is plentiful there."
Bone was so outraged that he jumped from his laying spot and nearly clawed Jamie. "What kind of a ridiculous question is that?" He snapped. His claws slip into the ground, and his blood red eyes were full of rage. "After nearly a moon, and you want us to leave? Of course we're not leaving!" Bone began to turn around.
Jamie blinked. "What about Percy?" She asked expressionless.
Bone turned back around. He seemed a little calmer now. "Let him die! It's his own fault for not eating before we left."
Jamie finally snapped. "Well, maybe it's your fault for making us go on this stupid journey! I had a life! I had a mate and cubs and you just took me from them!"
Bone did nothing but blink. "Fine, then! Leave, I don't care. Go ahead and starve out there. You're no longer of my concern."
Jamie dipped her head. " Thank you. I wish you luck. I'm not sure where I will go, but anywhere is okay." Without another word, Bone watched her leave until she was out of sight.
* * *
The next morning, Bone had gathered the rest of his group. "We're going to keep going," He announced. "We should be there by tomorrow."

That is all of the story I have so far. Please be patient while I write more! It's not going to take five minutes to write a chapter and paper and then type it up.
