-She watched him take down the huge animal with a look of awe across her young face. She's seen hunts before.. but there'd been lots of lioness.. group efforts.
Nothing like what had just occured before her. Quick, efficent.. As he called she stood once again, taking a long moment before she finally made his way over to him, eyes still filled with wonder, though her voice seemed caught in her throat.-

" Did you see how I did that? " he said to her, because she looked as if she was in shock. Maybe somethings wrong with her he thought to himself. But she seemed perfectly fine ...
He went back to gnawing on the animals neck, as if it were a chew toy. Mainly because it had a lot of meat around it, and it was surprisingly tender.

"I think so.." -She tried to dig up the things that she'd learned through her watching, her head cocking gently as she tried not to feel like a fool, explaining such simple concepts to him.- "You were very very quiet and hid until one came close enough. And then when it was close enough to surprise you sent your weight at it to help you take it down so quickly?"
-Glancing down at the large carcess as he chewed at it, she waited to be applauded or scolded, sitting properly forward to let him know that she was listening. Something she'd learned from the many many lessons with her father.-

Tefu liked the fact that she was an active listener, it made it so much more ... easy. " Good good, I think you about have it. " he ripped off what was left of the leg of the beast, and tossed it near Kami. " Ok, now we should get moving to another spot, for a fresh clean start. After that we can call it a day. "
He could tell she was a little drowsy, time had flew by so fast the sun was already setting. The brown and tan lion waited patiently for her to finish up before getting a move on to the next " arena ".

"Thanks Tefu." -Grinning with the positive reaction, she happily accepted the 'gift' of the leg, reaching down to take a solid bite from it. It'd been awhile since she'd eaten, but she didn't notice it until now, when the food touched her stomach and her stomach cried for more.
Looking up lightly, she nodded as his request was made, trying her best to fill her stomach as quickly as possible, as it was true, the sun slowly sank on the horizon. Licking any remnanse of the small feast off her maw, she joined him excitedly once again. Maybe she'd get to try at the new spot.- "Alright let's go!"

He moved rather swiftly to the new spot, and trodded along kicking up little bits of dust as he went. As the spot came into eye sight, he signaled to Kami that it was near. As he made his way there, they quickly hid behind a large rock, and every so often he'd poke his head out of the sides to see if there was anymore prey.
" Ok, just do as I did last time. As soon as you see an animal worth killing, wait until it gets into a clear open spot. Then attack it with full force. " he whispered too her.

-As they neared the new place she noticed the soft change in how he walked, and herself tried to do the same, being careful where she put her feet, and trying her best not to brush into any noisy brush as she followed. And as she crouched she did the same, not far away, trying her best to watch as he did for signs of movement in the slowly darkening surroundings.
Quietly she waited, keeping her mind focused as her eyes scanned back and forth. It wasn't long before a soft movement caught her eyes and watched as a young antelope, probably a teen just around the same age as she was, made it's slow little trek along the grasslands, stopping to nibble every few steps.
Heart flaring, the blood pumping through her she tried to stay quiet, and crouch, and wait.. and breath. When would it be close enough? Was she going to do alright? Atleast it wasn't as big as Tefu's target.
When it neared close enough that she thought she could pounce she broke out from her hiding spot, taking a powerful running step before she leaped at the antelope, body crashing into the young prey, claws digging into it's soft sides. However she'd landed near the back of the creature and the swift push of force smashed against her stomach as the anetlope kicked in fear, breaking away from her.
Grimacing with pain, she attempted to right herself despite the lack of breath, running after the scared prey. She was almost catching up too, until IT happened. Her footing caught and she tripped, rolling foward in a clumsiness that was so her, before she lie dejected on the ground, watching the antelope speed off into the night.-

Tefu watched the young prey move around as she did. He could tell she was paying attention to his previous catch by the way she acted. The brown lion smirked at what a job he'd done with her, he knew she was bound for the kill. As she lunged forward at the antelope, he could tell she was determined.
She was struggling a bit in the beginning, not giving full effort. She was unaware of her ability with her sudden growth spurt, that was her mistake. She took a blow to the stomach by the skittish animal, and he turned his head un able to watch the rest.
He turned around and saw her lying on the ground, so he quickly went over to the lion in case she was hurt. " A-are you alrriiig hht ?" he said out of breath.

-She sigh heavily as the antelope was lost from sight, a heavy heat of embarrassment erupting from her when she heard Tefu's voice.
Laying her head lightly on the ground, she tried to laugh it off in her answer. Sure she was sore.. but the only thing that was really hurt was her pride.- "I'm okay. I think."
-Lifting herself with a weary paw she tried to give him a faint smile as she stood.- "I'll just have to try harder next time."

Tefu was glad that she knew her mistake already, she had already had it bad enough so he didn't want to make it worse. " Yes, but it was still a job well done, you had it in the beginning. " he was happy to see her not as disappointed. With a little re-assuring .. she'd be okay for tommorow or the next day.
" Well, im growing tired, and Im sure you are as well. Would you like to join me in sleep? I know a good spot near a watering whole. Which isn't too far from here. " Tefu just normally slept where he wanted around the pridelands. All the better for waking up and not having to move around as much.

-Smiling a little shyly at his kind words, despite her embarrasing feat, she shook the dust off of her golden pelt. At his request she stopped for a moment, thinking briefly as those troublesome hormones tugged at her once again.
It certainly would be nicer to lay someplace safe, next to some else, then all alone in the middle of a foreign landscape. Giving the softest rumblings of a purr she nodded in agreement, stepping to his side.- "Sure, I could use a nice drink before i sleep anyway."

Tefu smiled at her gesture, someone else to sleep with for a change. He was excited, but he wouldn't show it too much, didn't want to seem desperate now. " As could I .. it's been along day. BUt an exciting one none the less. " he chuckled lightly, with a small purr nestling in his throat. Didn't want to make it noticable though ... at least, not TOO noticable.
He turned his head slowly and started leading the way to there resting spot. It had been one of the better days Tefu had had in a while, he could get use to this.
Whenever you want to end it. x]

((Thanks for playin with me Cam, it was lotsa of fun biggrin *will work on that form and get it sent in*))
-Another young grin touched her at Tefu's sentiment and she nodded happily, following after him into the cool night. Her mind drifted softly to her dejection and fight the day before, and she felt a ping of sadness. Stepping closer to Tefu she contingued along, stopping at the watering hole long enough to drink, before the two headed off to sleep.-
