Maawio let out a small rumbled purr, looking to Amari with a smile, then to the sleeping lioness. She didnt like to talk about people behind their backs, even if it wasnt in a bad way. She sighed a little and nuzzled Bahtkis paw gently. "She is strong." Maawio concluded, reclining nearer to both of them than just Amari.

The lioness sighed as she padded slowly through the undergrowth. She moved silently though she wasn't really in the mood for trying to be quiet. She walked past several different creatures that she could have eaten but she wasn't in the mood. She knew nothing would happen between her and Suku but then why did it hurt so much? She couldn't understand why she was so sad. Was it hope? Did she really have hope about it? She shook her head trying to stop the tears coming and to try and loose the confusion that was in her head.

Amari glanced to Maawio and then to Bakhti's form as she moved away into the undergrowth. Would it best to leave her alone to think for a little bit or did she want to talk about it?
He was pretty sure that the lioness must be feeling terrible at the moment but he knew that no pain lasted forever, in time it would dull down and fade, the ache that resided in the heart would slow down to just a slight twinge and life moved on.
He straightened and took a few steps to follow her, glancing back at Maawio with questioning eyes.
What should they do?

Maawio looked back to Amari, the same question also buzzing in her eyes. She remembered when she was hurt, the best healer was time. She sighed and glanced back to Amari from her relcined position. "Give her some time." She said, remembering her swim. "She'll talk about it later, you'll see."

Bakhti found a clearing where she paced up and down cursing herself. She had confused herself totally and now Amari and Maawio would think she had feelings for Suku. She didn't though did she? SHe couldn't understand herself everything was going round in her head all these questions she needed answers for. Why was this so hard? She sat down and sighed. Her friends would be best about now. She rose again and padded back to them slowly.

Amari nodded and moved back to Maawio, buffeting at her side playfully with the flat of his skull and moving to lick at her nose. "You want to go find some water? I'm parched." He asked with a grin, turning his head in the direction of the waterfall he had heard earlier, it had to be nearby. "We can go look for Bakhti later, I'm sure she'll be okay for now."

She squiremed happily at the lick on her nose and smiled. "Hmm, Im not really that familiar with this place...But im sure we can find some water." She nodded at his last statment, but looked back to the shrinking figure of a lioness with a worried look on her face.

Bakhti climbed up the first tree she came to with a little difficulty. From there she could watch her two friends and follow them if need be. The branches of the trees were sterdy and strong letting her follow above them this way she could listen to them as well. She felt rather bad about listening in to her friends conersation but at least this way if they spoke about her she could pounce them and pretend she was fine.

Amari smiled, his eyes flashing with happiness, it was so good to be with Maawio again, his heart felt so warm and everything in life seemed full when she was with him. It was going to be hard to say goodbye to her again.
He reared up a little on his back legs, wrapping his frontlegs around her neck in a lion-like hug, giving a playful roar before turning and heading off in the direction of the water at a steady gait. "It won't take us long to find it dearest." He chuckled.

She laughed sweetly, nuzzling his paws before they hit the ground again. She felt so complete, and she knew he would visit, although it would be sad without him.
She padded alongside him, her smile not fading as she searched for the water source. Her ears perked up as she thought she heard a slight trickle. "I hope so, Im thirsty."

Bakhti watched from the trees she smiled as the two rubbed against each other. She knew one day they would be together unless something drastic happened. She smiled at them both happily though she kept hidden above them.

It wasn't too long before they located the water source, a small fountain fell down a little drop and into a lush pool below. It looked simply beautiful and he felt suddenly more in need of water than before. He paused on the cliffside that looked down and over the pool, eyes searching for a way down.
"Ahh over there, we can use those rocks to jump down." He pointed with a paw and then slowly leapt down onto the first one. He turned to make sure Maawio was okay before hopping neatly down onto the lower one.
Four jumps later and he was down on the soft grass that surrounded the pool. He paused to wait for the golden femme, admiring her slender form that glowed in the sunlight.

She leapt down to rock, slipping momentarily but then regaining her balance with a smile and lowering her maw as she arrived a tthe grass also, slipping her maw into the cool water and lapping it up gratefully. It was very refreshing, even in the humid environment.

He moved to stand beside her, lowering his head as well and drinking from the pool. The water eased the ache in his throat instantly and he sighed, raising his head momentarily to glance around. Water dripped from his muzzle, leaving ripples in the water as they made contact and then he moved forwards, front paws in the cool waer as he lowered his head once more, drinking his fill.
He wasn't one for water but the humidity in the air was enough to make even water shy Amari risk getting a little wet.

Humming a tune to herself randomly she also drunk her fill and hiccuped after doing so, dipping a paw into the water to free it of dust, and then entering the other one also. Her eyes were half closed as she was very relaxed, the content look on her face matching the purr that escaped her throat.
