Khaleesi nodded, "You can walk with me." She'd try to keep the young lioness out of trouble. "Just leave the cubs alone. We aren't combined yet, and that's what they'll be the most touchy about," she ordered sternly. She wasn't happy about dealing with Delilah, because she had never been good at making lions obey her.

Delilah/lioness/Siku Pride

thanks and I will leave the cubs alone and focus on my training with you and midnight

Siku/ Siku Pride, dominant male

Siku nodded satisfaction.

"Thank you for understanding, Delilah", he said, smiling, and turned towards Aria, "Well, all we've got to do is to hope they won't blame us. They are not Karaz after all!"

(@Candor, once Ajihad finishes talking with his pride, Siku will set off)

It didn't seem like any more questions were going to be asked. "We'll be going then. If you want to join us, you are welcome to. I really think this will be a good thing, if we can work it out. I think you should at least accompany us there. You can always leave later," he told them. He went to go get his cub and carry her there. Chaos walked over to his cubs, so they could walk together. Astrid hurried to her sister's side. "Do you need help?" she asked.

Amara looked at Astrid. "If you want to walk with Luna I'm sure she would love that" she said with a smile. The white cub seemed to hate to be carried anymore so having Astrid walking with Luna would help a lot. She glanced over and saw Tara seeming like she was able to follow as well.

Aria nodded. "I just hope the understand the situation with her" she said with a small sigh.

Ivy/ Ajihad Pride, lioness 1

"Mum, we will be joining them, right?", Nyasi asked hopefully, looking up at Ivy. Nyasi must've seen her hesitation. What an attentitive cub!

Ivy sighed and looked at her son.

"Yes, we will", she replied confidentally, "Life in a pride is better than living like a nomad".

Nyasi smiled and hopped around his mother happily. Ivy looked at the leaders, musing. She was panicked over the safety of her son. But should she?

Siku/ Siku Pride, dominant male

Siku licked his mate's head and turned his body towards the no-lion land.

"Of we go, my lions", he declared, "Let our fate not let us down".

He then proceeded, and felt like walking futher and further away from his normal and comfortable life.

Aria picked up Yael as she watched Midnight pick up Fae to follow Siku. "How far into no lions land will we go" she asked with a mouthful of cub. She wanted to be sure it wasn't too far in case there was danger that they weren't aware of.

Azrael stayed near the dominants in case they needed him. It was a little dismaying what a small force they represented. He hoped Ukuta would be coming with them. Khaleesi followed certain this would be a good choice. She had known the young leader before, and unless he had changed dramatically, he would be good to team with.

Ajihad finally made it to the border with his pride. He looked at them and hoped that this wouldn't be a hostile gather. He wasn't sure how far he wanted to go "into the unknown." He went a certain distance and then he felt they had gone far enough. "This protection isn't because I don't trust Siku, it's because of other predators. Please form a protective circle for the younger lions," he instructed.

Astrid walked alongside Luna, and told Ajihad that he didn't have to carry her. Slowly, they followed the pride.

Storm following along side helping keep the younger lions or lionesses safe. Wanting to show she is willing to be a team player unlike before that seems be ending up on the wrong side of her leaders and pride mates ,with her being new would best to help than make things harder for others especally now then before.

Luna kept close to Astrid as she looked up at her aunt. "Are we going back to where I was born" she asked as she looked forward again, twitching with excitement. She assumed they would just be getting more lions and moving where her parents originally lived.

/

Amara walked beside Ajihad and looked back to see Reyla somewhat pushing Tara, Amber and Echo towards the middle of the group. *At least she's helping* she thought as she looked forward again. "I wonder if their pride agreed to merge" she said quietly to Ajihad.

/

Aria glanced back and saw Midnight taking the rear with Fae in his mouth. *He's been a good hunter so far. I hope he stays. Mostly for Fae if anything* she thought. She liked that Fae and Yael got along.
