Unsure

[Zaidah]

fff * walkie talkie sound* calling Settah, calling, Settah. over. *fff walkie talkie sound* anyone may join! But it's not always right either... Zaidah licked her lips from her last kill, as zebra at that, and boy was it good. There were still dots of blood on her maw. She could feel the soft grass between her toes and under her pads. It was refreshing, almsot, from the lands she used to be in. It has been a little while since she had seen Settah, and she didn't exactly know where e would be. It still ran through her mind, the same thought, if she played her cards right she could be the lead femme. It was not those exact words, she thought... the memory started to fade. It seemed so boring here, at the time. No plot or fighting, nothing to do, no one to talk to, no meeting or rank giving. Nope, she figured it was jsut plain unorganized. But Settah, was it. He definitly stopped her from doing anything drastic or absolutly stupid. She didn't know why she didn't act quite her self around him. Maybe he was too nice, or mayber it was still that thing about possibly being hte nextt lead female. Tht would be wonderful, but at the same time, horrible. Shje wouldn't know what to do, what to say, how to act, she'd have to be nice to everyone. She wouldn't know how to act her rank. But she would learn... Zaida shook her head, she was thinking too far ahead. She sighed, and then lifted her head. She closed her eyes and breathed in the wonderful spring air. She felt so unsure, yet somehow, the breath was refreshing to this thought. The femme sat down and gazed at the sky, she was looking for something, but she her self was not sure what. She wanted so bad just to get angry at someone, so bad just to get mad, tear something to shreads. But she didn't understand what was here that stopped her, she held her self... it wans't like her. Agains he lifted her head, and roared. It was a lonhg, moan more like it, but a roar no less. Like something was screaming, in hurt, or pain... She out her head down, and looked at her paws. She was on top of a hill, and form far away she might have only looked like the smae of a female lioness sitting on top of a hill. She lay down with no OOMF or hurting. The grass was so soft. Zaidah closed her eyes, and just waited for what was in store.

[Settah]

...In Character... He hadn't accepted her that long ago when he heard her roar. The lead male had been resting beneath the stars in some part of the plain when it had broken the silence. Tilting his crania to the side Settah listened to the roar. In truth it wasn't much of one, kinda like something that wasn't meant to be heard. Unfortuantely he'd heard it and to satisfy his nature he had to go and find out what was ailing her. There had to be something ailing her. That had not been a happy roar. With a grunt he rose from his haunches and moved off towards the sound of the caller. Zaidah, you foxy feline, what in the world could be wrong with you? Settah thought as he set off through the grass a slight smile coming to his lips. Maybe 10 minutes elasped, the night sky growing steadily darker as the median of the night came to pass. There was hardly any movement in the plains besides the dark form of the leading male. He moved at an easy pace, though it was some what swifter than normal. He slowed slightly as the form of the lioness came into view. He paused in his step. He wasn't sure if she had wanted to be alone or if his presence was welcomed. Still, there was no harm in trying. Clearing his throat he spoke gently as he moved forward. "Evenin' Zaidah" he said coming to a halt beside her. Relaxing down to his haunches he stared curiously down at her, his head tilted to the side so he could see better. He felt a sense of loneliness as he gazed at the female and he nodded in mutual understanding even though he wasn't quite sure what it was that bothered her. ...End In Character...

...Lead Male of Meset...

[Zaidah]

But it's not always right either... Zaidahs eyes widened as she heard the familiar suthing voice of Settah. Yet it almsot frightened her. Relief flooded through her, and she let out a breath as if she was holding her breath until the arrival of Settah. She rose to her feet, and swung aorund to see him. Grinning, she finally relaxed. She nodded, almost embarassed suddenly. He obviously thought her sad from her roar, indeed she was. She wasn't sure if she should tell him, but he had such a trusting honest face. She settled down, lowering her self slightly. She hated appearing slightly masculin at times, strong, tall, but yet very feminin. Her expression changed to a happy expression, not that she was happy at all, though. Evening. Zaidah finally answered, clearing her throat. She had thought aobut what he said, agian, it raced through her mind repididly. Her, the lead female, that she would love. Every thought of hers rushed away like water when she spoke. Settah made her feel calm. She looked down, and sighed. Then she met her eyes, and gave a sideways girn. Your probably wondering what I was 'mourning' about, huh? Family, that's all. It's nothing, really. Zaidah managed to let in a smirk again. She wanted so bad jsut to act nasty, but she wouldn't bring her self to. Zaidah looked back into his eyes, she could see the stars in them. Some how Zaidah felt like leaning on him for confort, for warmth. For some reason she just wanted to talk to him, for some reason she felt so perfect around him. This was only there second meeting, though. But she figured she was only falling for him for his high rank, and suddenly anger filled her. She tried to turn to her old devil nature, but nothing seemed the same here. Se swallowed a lump that was in her throat,and closed her eyes.

[Settah]

...In Character... Settah watched her rise and he smiled in an almost sad manner and shook his head. "Don't disturb yourself because of me" he muttered allowing himself to slide forward so he was resting on his belly. He allowed his head to fall down onto his paws and allowed his optics to be sealed to the light of the moon. He gave off the appearance of being asleep but in reality he was wide awake. He heard her reply and solomnly nodded his head. "I see" he murmmured opening his eyes and lifting his head slightly. Family was such a confusion thing. He himself, he had had one, when he was a young whelp, but since then nothing. He had mates aplenty and no doubt that away from these lands of Kyotu there were at least a dozen of his offspring, but did he care? Not really. He wasn't much for thinking in the past, nor the future. He just didn't see the point. You couldn't change the past and the future was still tomorrow, why worry about it? He glanced towards the lioness beside him and he curiously wondered what she would do if he voiced his opinions aloud to her. Proboably laugh he thought slightly, rolling over onto his side, allowing his head to fall down into the dirt, his lids once again closing. He looked like an over grown house cat, with several crucial differances. No house cat had jaws so powerful they could snap a zebra's neck in one mighty snap. No house cat had such a rough mane and certainly no house cat was over 300 pounds. No, he was not a house cat nor would he ever be. Flisking his tail the lead brute opened his eyes slightly, gaze lingering on Zaidah for a moment. Just be yourself female he thought, slightly bitter. He hated it when this happened. When others refused to show their true beings, it irritated him. What was the point of living if you were only going to be a copy of somebody else? None. That was what Settah believed and he firmly enforced that. Tensing slightly he perked up as she looked at him and he tilted his head to the side as if saying, "What?" "There a problem Zaidah?" he asked slowly rising up to his paws before settling back down to his haunches once more, gaze resting on her, awaiting a response. ...End In Character... You need to use quotation marks Zaidah, its impossible to tell when your speaking if you don't.

[Zaidah]

But it's not always right either... Zaidah sighed, she wished so that he would talk. His voice was suthing, so understanding. Zaidah closed her eyes again, but opened them in worry. If she closed hrer eyes, she could see her brother, her horrible mother, her stupuid past. Zaidah roared, it was quiet, though, so as not to disturb Settah. She opened her eyes, wiating for him to talk. It seemed to quiet without talk. Finally, he spoke. Zaidah whipped her head towards him, but her face remained without emotion. " I..., well... " Zaidah sighed, it was hard to keep secrets. " I left my brother, I left my family. I... I miss him. But my mom... " Zaidah roared again, but this time much louder. Her eyes raged with anger when she thought of her mother, her stupid mother, no knowledge what so ever. She thought she could hide that Zaidah wasn't a male? Zaidah gave a sideways grin, but it soon faded. She was glad to have Settah there, finally someone to talk to. It would e hard to admit, but she did start to like him. But she knew, she KNEW it was because he had a high rank. " Thanks for caring... " Zaidah finally said, looking back to the stars. She looked for designs. A heart? She looked away, back to the ground, but not at Settah. Just at her paws. She was obsessed. She wouldn't love him, she COULDN'T. But he was so easy to gt a long with, jsut his personality, perfect.' Unlike me' Zaidah thought.
