Astrid wasn't sure how much time had passed. "We'll survive, but I think we might need to get back. Chaos might get suspicious if we spend too much time together," Astrid said. She began to head back to the den. "The lionesses will probably have to go on a hunt later, since we didn't catch anything earlier," she cast a sly smile toward him "We'll have to do this again," she agreed.

Her head turned to the side as she spotted the new lioness, ivy. She growled lowly as the herd continued to trample alongside her. Another deep growl escaped her as she spotted a nomad lion in the distance, his scent distant but recognisable, the same from the carcass. A loud yelp hit her ears. She turned her head, ivy was and seemed to be fine. She looked around

She was. On the floor. Another loud yelp escaped her lips as another hoof tram led her leg.

Ajihad saw the lioness go down. He really hoped she was one of the lionesses from his pride otherwise she wasn't worth saving. He began racing toward the lioness. He wasn't sure how he was going to help her but he had to try. When he got closer, he realized that it was Indigo. He wondered what she was doing out here. "Indigo! I'm coming!" he yelled. He pushed with the stampede, and slowly made progress toward her. He hoped she was okay, because otherwise he wouldn't get there in time.

The lioness groaned in pain. She knew her leg was broken just from the crunch she had heard. She watched as chaos' son approached, concern clear on his face. Another yelp escaped her as her leg crunched again, she was laying with her head away from the hsrd and her legs closest too them.

The older male smirked when he hears the lion yell. He started thinking about doing the same to the other pride. His black mane and dark coat made it easy to hide in the shadows as he saw the work he did make progress in causing trouble.

Ajihad was surprised that he finally made it to her side. She was still okay. "Indigo I'm going to try to get you on my back and get you out of here." He grabbed her by the scruff, and was able to manage to get her on his back. He continued going with the stampede, and growled out them, so they wouldn't trample him. Finally, the stampede was gone. "Indigo what do you want me to do?" he left her on his back, because he wasn't sure if he could get her back on.

The lioness let out a low growl as she was laced onto his back "j.. Jsut get my back to camp" she whined in between her words. She was in so much pain it was unbearable. Nothing compared to the miscarriage but this was a definitely a second.

(short again sorry)

Ajihad began to go at a slow steady walk back toward the den. He tried not to jostled her, but it was hard work. "What happened? What injuries do you have?" he asked, while they walked. They didn't have any healers, so asking these questions were probably pointless. He changed tact to something that might be useful, "Why were you out there? Did you see that lion? Where did the stampede come from do you know?" Soon the den was in sight. Ajihad was relieved. The walk had felt like forever.

"my right leg and possibly left are broken in multiple places, I got knocked down and stamped" she whined once more. "it was a nomad lion, they left one of damus kills on our territory earlier, I don't know where the stampede came from but they could have spooked it. She winced, grimacing in pain as she slumped of off ajihads back and onto the dominant den flor." a loud yelp of pain escaped her lips." go warn the others of the stampede, I saw the new lioness ivy nearby"

The large lion looked down at his son. "Jaytone," He glanced over at Kesi, Alias and Jackal. "I must speak with you, alone." He growled, shooing the cubs away before looking at his eldest son. "Come, take a walk with me." He spoke gently, but with strength.
