It was on days exactly like this one that made the impish little brat come out flying out of the blue cub. Ima lay on a hard surface waving his tail back and forth as he thought of what to do. Having been bored that morning, he had naturally gone looking for his mother, only to find that she was gone to visit someone she knew.
So he had gone looking for his father, but he had been nowhere to be found as he had gone off somewhere with some of his brothers while he had run off on his own to play in the lake with some other cubs. His home den was deserted, and he was alone at home. If he had he been younger, he would have hidden in the den, nervous about being alone until someone came back.
Having developed a new sense of independence had made him unaffected by his solitude. Nevertheless, all the factors only equaled one thing, and that was that there was nothing for him to do. He was bored out of his mind, and that was never good. No wanting to stay in the empty den, he had taken off running in some direction.
The wind felting nice running through his fur. However, he hadn’t been paying attention to where he was going and now he was lost. At some point, the golden grass had turned into rock, and he wondered what he would do now, and figure out where he was.

Harith, on the other hand, hadn't gotten himself lost. At least, he didn't think so. He always made sure to turn his head every few minutes to check his surroundings behind him, 'specially when the family den moved out of sight. Being so far from home wasn't a comfortable thought for the older cub. But he didn't feel like staying at home, for once. Though it was quiet, in a state of being that he preferred, he didn't feel like staying at home today. He couldn't explain it. Being inside made it feel like the walls were closing in around him.
I had been spending a lot of time at home, Harith thought, stopping in his run to turn his head and try to mentally picture the terrain. Even a cub like me gets tired of that for too long. What was that some lions said....Too much of a good thing is a bad thing? Something like that. Sniffing at the cool breeze blowing the tuft of hair on top of his head, the cub continued on, scrambling on top of a rock just a few feet ahead of him.
He'd never been this way before. There was little grass. Or for that matter, ground. It seemed to be all rock. A fitting playground for the young, if not very dangerous at the same time. Harith glanced at the gap between his rock and another. Big enough for a cub to get caught in. He shuddered at the thought as a pair of paws running neared his ears. Dropping to his stomach, he wormed his way to the edge, peeking over to see a familiar body.
"Thought you were with Papa like the rest." That was when the form of another entered the corner of his eye. He hadn't noticed it before, hidden behind a rock in front of his vision where he once stood. Glancing over, Harith quickly got back to his feet, nearly slipping off the rock in his haste. "I did not see you there..." All formality went out the window at his fright.

Turning around from investigating a strange lizard he'd found slinking across the rocks, Ima briefly looked around himself before he spotted his brother. Approaching him he replied, "Hey! I was, but then I couldn't find them. I was bored anyway," he said, excluding the fact the the reason that he couldn't was because he had initially run off in his boredom.
Looking around, Ima saw that he had managed to get a bit aways from home. He wondered what had brought his brother out here as well. At Harith's words, Ima took his attention from him and directed it towards the lioness that he hadn't noticed.
Walking toward her, and making sure that Harith was coming too, he observed her before speaking. "Hello, I am Imarogbe, and uh, I was just looking for something to do I guess." Stating his reasoning to an adult for running off into the rocks sounded lamer than it had telling his brother.

Noting the sigh of the Banu, Harith shrunk away a little bit. Not that he was afraid of her. Oh, no. A Pad, no matter how young, afraid of a Banu was just disgraceful. Right? Either way, he wasn't afraid. He had taken her sigh as one of tiredness or frustration. It was hard to say which, with the wind equally running through his ears. The rocks were the last place he had expected to find anyone and he didn't want to disturb her. But as a young cub and she the elder, he was compelled to answer her question like the good little boy he was.
So Harith stepped up besides his brother, sitting down and pulling his body up straight.
"I am Pad Harith," he announced, the stiff position he was in showing more formality than the words did. "I was looking for a change of scenery. The rocks seemed a nice place to start." Once that was done, his shoulders slumped a little in the effort to stay so straight upright. "Are we bothering you?"
