Contractions. Pain. Contractions. Pain. More Contractions. More Pain. Excruciating Pain.
The mother-to-be, again, was nearing once again. The tawny female's belly bulged incredibly and what more, she was growing a bit irritated. After carrying these pups for so many months, it was about time they were out in the world and out on their own. Shira appreciated the nights she spent with Yakuti, especially how comforting he was during her pregnancy. Knowing that he'll still love her when this is all over, just more motivation to get them out.
Scurrying paws brought her to the den, laying down against the back wall beside the dark tunnel. Yes, it was about time, she has already done this before and no female who has done it ever forgets how it feels. Ophos was not coming, no doubt he was snuggling up to Mafa or take after his charges... Zua was probably with her "friend". Abou Ace and her other daughter, she had no idea.
"Omoa, call for your 'master' and make yourself scarce for the while, I do not want you around until after this is all done," she commanded. Though she was not her 'slave' she was still a 'friend' to her. Rather, Yakuti's but she seemed to have the power in the relationship. Though, she did appreciate Omoa didn't make many appearances when Yakuti and she was alone.

Yaku hated leaving Shira alone. Sure, she wasn't in heat any more, she couldn't be taken by another male, but she was pregnant! Still, they could not afford to let lions intrude upon the graveyard in their absence. Yaku had to patrol as much as possible. After all, the fewer lions, the safer their pups would be.
Yaku scowled as he made his rounds. He didn't want to miss Shira giving birth, but he pressed on.
A sudden appearance of a small, black and white creature caught his attention. Omoa was there, and he knew why. She had barely even gotten the words out before he was racing toward their den, half excited, half worried.
He soon entered the den, panting and his heart racing as he hurried over to his mate.
"I'm here for you Shira." He said softly, though he knew Shira knew what to do. "I love you."

She scoffed, smiling and cuffed him lightly. Looking down at her belly as she laid upon her side, perhaps the most comfortable way of laying down there was for the past month or so. Rubbing it lightly she wondered when they were ready to get out.
"I called for you, I knew you would be or I'll have to find a new father for these little ones," She said smirking. Yakuti not being around when she called for him was rare to her. She just knew he would come running, especially now that she was pregnant and overdue for her second litter. The only reasons she could think of why her mate would not come to her is; one, he was mad at her. Two, he got lost on the way home. Three, He was killed and thus the pups would need a new father. And all three were unlikely... well, perhaps the first one was possible.
"I do not know why they insist on staying inside... nothing in there," she complained. She opened her maw to say another word until a sharp pain attacked her side making her yelp.
"ABOUT TIME!"

"I should hope not." He teased, doing his best to keep the nervousness from his voice. He was always ready to serve her, always longing to be at her side. The both together meant that he was a very happy hyena.
Yaku laughed lightly, "I daresay it must be a tight squeeze in there."
He flinched. They were coming. At last! He was so excited, and yet so worried at the same time. He wanted to see his new children so much, and yet he was terrified that something might go wrong. What if one of them was stillborn? What if Shira was hurt while giving birth?
Or worse, what if she couldn't manage at all?
Complete nonsense, he told himself. Shira has done this before, and she can handle it fine again, he insisted. The worried father and mate in him still caused him to panic a bit inside, though.
"It's time..."

Shira snarled and latched onto whatever of Yakuti's that she could. Surely he could manage a missing patch or fur... or skin... or what. She growled violently as she pushed as hard as she could, feeling the extreme pains of birth yet again.
It felt like her lower lip was stretched over her head to the back of her neck.
With a good, forceful push something passed throw her and a loud cry. She jerked a glance at her mate as beads of sweat passed down her brow demanding that he take care of his. . .
A sniff.
Daughter.
She gave another yelp as a second passing pierced her body again, much worse than the last time, perhaps because it was so quickly after this one's sibling. This was not as worse as her first litter, curse those... she still remembered how sore she was after they were born. Her chest continued to heave as she breathed heavily through her labor.
Another daughter.
Thank our ancestors, more daughters...
"Yakuti... I really hate the fact that all your pups are so large..."
She let out another loud yowl before the last of the life strewn inside her fell free from her loins.
A male.
With a heavy sigh she let her head fall back and close her eyes. Her breath slowed and her chest slowed it's heaving.

The new hyena pup, soon to be christened Ameki took her first breath into this new hard-hearted world. It was not a very pleasant first breath at that. Her nostrils filled with the potent, pungent odor of male musk. "Eww... No want!", the new pup thought as the strange smell overtook her and made her eyes water. She wanted to cry out to her mother. She didn't know why, she just did. So she let out a soft groan of displeasure.
Instinctively, she poked her nose around this unfamiliar area until she nudged into something soft. And big. How strange, it didn't that unpleasant musk this world seemed to be coated in. It was kinda nice. It had a strong smell, but it wasn't quite as harsh and in your face as that stench was, it was a strong but slightly more delicate, feminine aroma. She much preferred this smell of this. She nuzzled her face into Shira's soft belly. "Me like...", she thought as she gently lie her head down to rest on Shira's warm stomach.
((Sorry if I messed anything up. It's my first SoA that will grow so I'm a bit unsure of what to do. ^^; ))
