Reid laughed a little and shook his head, his mane flowing from side to side with his head. "Not exactly, brother. But then again, I have so much to base my opinion off of." The redish colored lion was of course being phashesish with his old friend, he had no problems with it. "But you know, once you do go back to the pride, perhaps this little cub and I should go over and visit.."

Nimbus huffed, slightly annoyed. "Well then there's something those brains of yours just don't grasp. Because I like to have fun and be goofy does not mean I have no maturity," he shrugged and then looked back at the direction of the pride. "I'm not sure if I'm going straight back..."

An odd sound seemed to be dancing about the air as a warmth steadily grew on Reids side. It seemed that Desero had fallen asleep and was well...purring. An adorable sight to say the least but it was a rest that was well deserved. It had been hard for Desero to get any sleep when he was alone, but now that he was near his "father" he felt protected and secure. This feeling of security was what had lulled him to sleep.

Reid gave an elderly sort of nod, silently admitting he could be wrong. "You're welcome to stay here as long as you wish. Prove me wrong. But it is getting late.." So much had happened today, he didn't even realize the sun had gone down, it was the purring Desero at his side that brought it to his attention. Letting out a big, forceably silent yawn he shook his head a little then smiled, "at least stay the night.."

Nimbus looked off to the horizon, towards the pride Synda resided in before nodding to Reid. "As you wish," he got up and stretched out his legs with a quiet yawn, extending an retracting his long claws. "Where should I sleep tonight?"

"Wherever you wish. In my cave, though it's not the biggest, in any cave, just not with my sister..." Laughing a little and giving his friend a playful wink he leaned down and picked up Desero carefully in his mouth and carried the sleeping cub to their cave and laid down next to him with his large tail drapped around the little one.

Lakeisha had been sitting off to the side just listening to the conversation and she rolled her eyes at some of Reid's comments such as where his friend would be sleeping. She made sure he had seen it as well. Her orbs flickered as she let out a tired yawn.

Nimbus smirked. Oh just to get on his nerves... "Oh but she's such a beautiful lioness," he bowed lowto her, "My name is Nimbus, My dear lady," hechuckled as he got up and followed after Reid, until they got to their cave and split ways, walking into a cave close by, suitable enough for one night's stay.

If Reid didn't have Desero in his mouth as they were walking, he would have turned around right there and pawed him across the face. Instead all he could do was flick his tail aggrievedly and think out the fight in his head. Which of course, he was always victorious in. As long as Lakeisha kept her distance, he wouldn't have to burn his oldest bridge with his best friend.

While Desero slept, his leg and ears twitched sporacticly while he mumbled incoherant sentences in his sleep. Such an adorable cub he was...but he was just as troubled as he was cute. He had no idea who his parents where or even how he came to these lands. However, he was thankful though that he had come to these lands instead of somewhere where he could have easily been made into a stronger predators meal.
You must learn to trust my darling..
What in the world? Who said that? He could have sworn he heard that females voice before. Wait there was a sillouhett in the distance...now two. What's going on. Who are they?
You must be strong son...
Son? Son? Wh...What did he mean by that? Was this Reid...now this voice was far deeper and so familiar. Where had he heard these voice before. Who are you is what he wish to call out but no words left his muzzle. Instead it just moved but somehow, by some miracle they heard him.
We are the very one's who loved you with all our being.
We still do son. It feels us with joy that you have found a family to care for you. Open up...they will not harm you. You can trust them.
All of this was so confusing. Were these sillouhettes his parents? If so...were these the spirits of them. Did they die while he was out...had something dreadful happened to break them apart. No they were leaving. No..they couldn't leave him. Not with so many unanswered question.
"Mom! Dad!"
Desero awoke with a start and of course as any one afraid would, he looked around frantically. However, the only parental figure that he saw was his adoptive father Reid. Calming himself, he slowly lay his head back down and just lay there in silence.

Reid was always a little slow to get a start from a deep sleep that he was in at the time of the little one's dream. It wasn't until he settled back down did the the lion raise his massive head and look over at Desero through groggy, but caring eyes. "Hm? Des? Son, you okay? What's wrong?" He was trying to fight the tiredness and take care of his duties as a new father.

"Hmm? Oh it was nothing. J...Just a nightmare I suppose. Sorry to have awaken you. I'm fine now though. You go ahead and go to sleep dad."
Desero chose to keep his secrets to himself for right now. It was not because he had no trust in Reid. No he trusted Reid with his life. He would just rather figure out what this meant...make sense of things before he shared the details of his dream...or rather a peice of his forgotten past.
(( I thought it would be cool to give him his own backstory ya know?)

((No, no that's cool. I like it.))
Reid sighed a little and put his head back down, resting his chin over Desero's back and passed back out within a couple of seconds.
The next morning he awoke slowly and again looked around to gauge his surroundings. This would do, he decided as he got up carefully and walked outside. Though his was a younger adult, his joints already popped as he walked in the mornings; but after they were all done he was limber and waited for his sister and his best friend to wake up. Some pride with only 3 members...

Nimbus awoke slowly, letting his eyes adjust to light. He let out a yawn that ended in a soft roar and stretched out his cramped muscles. Slowly he got to his fett and stepped out of the cave to see Reid sitting there. "Oh look! The king even rises early!" he bowed his head lightly and then looked out to the horizon. "I gotta get going today."

Reid and Nimbus spoke for a while and then he left. Left to go and start his own pride so he though, possibly with their friend sky as a queen to his king. Evening was now setting and the new father was wondering where his adopted son had gotten off to. With a little sigh he sat at the foot of his cave and waited. "I'll wait a little while longer then go and look for him." He decided with a sage nod... Followed by him wondering why he was speaking to himself.
About this time a big black lion stepped onto the pride, not bothering on announcing himself, following a little black and red cub who called these lands home with his family. Benton smirked and looked around, "Not bad..."
