Welcome to Gaia! ::

Akin was still growling when he heard another. Startled, the Silver King leapt around to face the new male. He roared his frustration to the skies, causing several flocks of birds to take to the sky. "What is it with these males and not ANNOUNCING THEMSELVES AT MY BORDERS!"

"Then go back to my border and wait there." He manged to get out. These males wanted to take two females he desperately needed. With his newborn daughters, the scent of blood radiating from Anya, and these two males, he would be lucky if he didn't collapse sometime soon.

Anya awoke and looked over at Ajani leaving. She got up slowly, wincing at the wound on her shoulder. She stepped over to Akintunde looking at the pleading Shairi. "Brother...please..I understand your pride's situation, but..." She sighed not really knowing what to say. The ligeress looked over at Shairi. "Maybe we should let him talk to Queen Kichea...that's what Karver and Hope did when he was debating on letting Knarnia go..." She briefly remembered her long stay at her Uncle's Domain and how small his pride was. Yet, that didn't seem to bother the King. Anya had remembered what Karver told her once..'As long as I have Hope, I'm fine. Nothing else matters...'. Anya sighed and wondered why Akintunde couldn't take that advice and use it now. But to each his own. The female nudged Shairi a little. "Come, let your father cool off and think.." She motioned for her niece to follow her as she went toward the caves, slightly limping on her way.

She smiled and shook her head. "Nonsense, Child. This is nothing..." She twitched her left ear slightly as she managed to get herself into the cave. Yawning a little, she settled in the cave entrance and began licking her wound again. She hoped that Ajani was alright. "Maybe I should have sent him home..." She murmured to herself. His pride was in danger of not having a King. She would rejoin him later.

He paced. There was nothing else to do, short of just going out and challenging the two males. His fur bristled at the thought of them in his lands. With his two babies there. And that one, the black and white one. Refusing to leave when he told him to the first time. It made him growl.

"Kichea... we need Shairi here." The gray eyes stayed on his mate and Queen as he paced. "With Nasseken and Cairi... we already lost Jalara, Rasha is never here. And with Anya leaving as well?"

Abruptly stopping, the King sagged to the ground. It was if every bone in his body had melted away.

The ligeress looked over at the young one obviously not knowing whom she belonged to. Chuckling slightly, Anya gave a slight purr. "I got this limp in a fight with a lion in my uncle's lands. It was an impulsive gesture..." She chuffed slightly watching her brother and sister-in-law. "I think I picked a bad time to find a mate..." She gave a little sigh and licked her paws. "I wonder...what would happen if....no bad idea." She shook her head a little knowing the idea was absurd.

A pale green figure emerged from the brush she had heard the noises as she was walking and as curious as she is she wanted to find out what it was, the exact opposite of her sister, she was also searching for a pride to stay at. The lonely lioness was growing weaker of being by herself each and every day, seeing her sister for the first time in awhile was good for her.
Her azure eyes glanced around as she made her way to the prides borders and called out, wondering if anyone would answer. As curious as she was she still didn't want to intrude.
