She shook her head, biting her tongue to keep from snapping. She got to her paws and shook her coat again. She didn't want to go anywhere or meet anyone. Again, irritation rose up. Rangi acted so casual, as if a whole pride hadn't just been wiped clean off the face of the earth. Kuruka let out a huff of breath, relieved to see the other cub move away. She lashed her tail and stood for a moment, then began to pad forwards, heading in the general direction of where she'd been introduced to the pride. At a slow pace.
Back with the pride, a massive silvery-brown lioness sat on the edge, her one good green eye hovering around the group. This lioness was known as Tusi ("insult"), and she was one of the top fighters. She was perfectly insane. It was her looks that drew most of the attention, though. She was laced with scars. Everywhere. Barely a patch of fur shone through. Her left eye was nothing more than a socket and bare swath of scarred skin, and her tail tip had been bitten off long ago. She had large paws and a rather narrow muzzle, as well as a stocky build in her legs, though her stomach was sunken and thin. She had a thick chin and shredded ears. To put it all together, she was rather ugly. But that didn't matter. She was a master of wreaking havoc. She was completely and utterly mad. Her skills lay in causing as much pain as possible to her victims. Not even killing. Just suffering. Of course, she was very adept at swift murder, too. And she, was to be Kuruka's mentor.
