((Bad log, will fix it up soon. ))
Shizu6616 (9:07:05 AM): Mi'rage bound across the grass grinning. He just felt like he needed to stretch his legs. He loved running and he could bet he was the fastest cub in the pride, though it had a lot to do with his thinnest. He was most certainly slender and he was glad.
The wind ruffles his slowing growing mane and his paw pounded against the ground. He wanted to shout as he darted to and fro, but he figured it would disturb someone so he refrained.
VelvieElle (9:13:09 AM): Obadias had left the family den earlier that morning to escape the noise. His brothers were eager because some of the older males would leave on their quests soon, though none from his family yet. Obadias found the idea of his future quest exciting too, but he expressed it quietly. The fact they were lacking one cub in the den was a rough blow too, especially for his mothers, so he figured they would not notice if he was gone too.
The male had settled himself under a tree, content to watch the various pride members putter passed on their daily duties, but one caught his attention. A fellow juve, it seemed, but he was smaller than Obadias, more slender. He was curious. He hadn't seen the other male around, but Obadias was not the type to wander looking for friends. He watched to see what on earth the fellow male was doing.
Shizu6616 (9:27:35 AM): Mi'rage continued to dart back in forth for some time, but he felt as though he was being watched which caused him to stop. He looked around trying to spy the prying eyes. He spotted a cub in the shade beneath after a few moments.
"Hi," he called in his friendly usual tone.
He turned and headed for the dark cub, hoping that the cub would not mind a bit of company.
VelvieElle (9:30:45 AM): Obadias watched as the cub searched for something, spotting him and moving towards him, making Obadias believe it had been him that the juve was looking for.
"Hello," he returned the greeting, his voice quiet but not unfriendly. He was not the most eager for company but he wouldn't turn the other male away, curious over why he hadn't seen him much before. "I am Obadias," he introducted himself, getting to his feet respectfully as the male approached. He waited, expecting the other male to return the pleasantry with his own name.
Shizu6616 (9:37:53 AM): Mi'rage smiled at his polite greeting and responded in kind, his father's lesson in ettique finally making their presense known. "I'm Mi'rage Methab. It nice to meet you," he said giving a polite nod.
"I hope you do not mind my company," he said sitting before the male. He looked over the male and smiled thinking of how he looked very similar to Rahim.
"I think I may have met a brother of your's or maybe his is your cousin. His name is Rahim."
VelvieElle (9:42:12 AM): Obadias returned the polite nod, saying formally, "and it is nice to meet you too." The lessons on how to behave had sunk in well with his cub, but he disliked them. They sounded forced to him, but he would use them anyway.
He sat down only after the other male had sat, shaking his head. "No, I don't mind the company," he said, not lying. He didn't mind it, he just hadn't planned on recieving any that day. He blinked in surprise at the males comment. Rahim? He hadn't spent much time with his elder brother, to his regret. "Ah, yes, he's my brother," he said. "Are you a friend of his?" He was trying to think of who this male would be. His markings did remind him of one of the Pads but he couldn't be certain.
Shizu6616 (9:46:16 AM): Mi'rage frowned slightly, "Er I am not sure your brother likes me very much. When I met him he didn't really want to talk to me until he found out my mother was a cheetah."
Mi'raged smiled once more though, "Its okay with me though. I can always make more friends and I've got tons of siblings to play with."
VelvieElle (9:55:27 AM): Obadias tilted his head to the side, wondering why his brother had disliked the other male, He seemed fairly firendly. "Your mother was a cheetah?" He said, sounding curious. "I didn't know that lions could breed with other cats." He remembered a leopardess banu in a Pad's harem but did not know they could produce cubs. "Or are both your parents cheetahs?" He peered at him, figuring his slender body may mean he was an actual cheetah, not a lion. He seemed to have a bright mood at least, not letting his brothers dislike affect him.
Shizu6616 (10:05:40 AM): "Yes, my mom is a cheetah and she lives in the rogue lands with two of my sisters. My dad is a lion, Pad Achal. My other two sisters Fayrus and Jinan live here with him as well. I look a lot like my dad, but I'm really thin like my mom. I guess that the way it works."
He smiled happily, "Dad says lions can breed with cheetah's and leopards. Mama Maua is a leopard, so I guess he is right."
VelvieElle (10:26:34 AM): Obadias looked curious and listened
interestedly at the other males words. At least now he knew who the other male was! He had seen Pad Achal in passing, as he had with most Pads in the pride, but had not spoken to him. Oh, and Pad Achal had the leopardess as well, he realised. "Ah, that's fascinating," he mused, tilting his head to the side. "I wasn't aware of that, though I knew other species were taken as Banus." He couldn't help but think of the leopardess he had meet on the borders of the pride. Shaking his hea,d he glanced back at the male.
"Are you fast like a cheetah?" he asked, smiling lightly.
Shizu6616 (11:10:56 AM): Mi'rage smiled decided he likes Rahim's brother far more than Rahim and wondered whether or not they would be friends. "Looks like you learned something new today. I like learning new facts."
Mi'rage grinned at the questioned asked by Obadias. "Yes, I am really fast. I love to run and I have the energy for it. Though I don't know if I am as fast as a cheetah. I went with my father when I was really young. I've never seen a cheetah run. I like to think I am just as fast though."
"Are you fast? Lions are pretty fast too, though I do not think one can catch a cheetah."
VelvieElle (11:29:06 AM): Obadias smiled back at Mi'rage and nodded. "I do too, it makes the pride more interesting sometimes. My brother Anwar would love you," he said, shaking his head in amusement, "he loves learning new things. He'd probably ask you a million questions." His brother was always craving knowledge and knowing that Obadias new a hybrid, Anwar would probably be eager to find out everything about the other male.
He looked very curious at the talk about running. "Really? I haven't run much, only a few joke races. Wanna show me what you can do?" He asked, getting to his feet. He wouldn't be able to beat the other juve in a race, he knew, but it would be fun to try at least. Like a game he knew Mi'rage would win.
Shizu6616 (12:04:44 PM): Mi'rage grinned thinking that the name sounded very familiar to him though he could not quite place it in his thoughts.
He stood grinning, "I love to run, its so much fun."
He watched Obadias rise and he turned to get ready. "We can race to the tree up ahead, the one just in the distance. First one there is the fastest."
He waited for his new friend to get ready before making his mark. "Ready?"
He paused for a second before calling out, "on your mark, get set, GO!"
