While the royalty of the pride was sneaking away, Aida was creeping about. She was able to get away from her parents rather easily, due to her large litter of siblings. At the moment, the little cubbin was stalking after a locus. It had made the mistake of wandering too close to her family, and drew the adventurous girl's attention. Thus the hunt began!
Fluffy orange tail tuft flickered anxiously behind her, the long limb it was attached to bending and swaying eagerly. The bug didn't seem to care much about the cubs presence. It would hop, and stop to rub its legs, or clean it's mandibles, before continuing on. Small paws crept after, sinking into the sand, muffling any sound she might make. A rumbling purr wanted to rise from her chest, but she kept it confined. Couldn't scare her prey!
But suddenly, it leapt for a good long time, making rounded ears perk in alarm, and Aida take off after it. Racing along the open area, pale blue eyes honed on her target, she had to suddenly skid to a halt as the hopper jumped right onto a random obstacle that was in the way. Blinking, Aida realized it was another cub! Perking her head up, she lowered it slowly, sniffing curiously... while the lotus played with the short fur on the little male's head.
"Hey... stay still, ok?" she whispered to Onuris, carefully leaning over him with an open mouth to try and snap her catch.

Pale blue eyes were intently locked onto that locus. It once again resumed cleaning it's jaws, and forelegs, as if nothing bad could happen upon it's new perch. Smirking slightly, the young lionesses flicked her tail eagerly. There most certainly was something that buggy should worry about!
With Onuris' reaction though, she perked her ears again and looked to him with another wide-eyed, amused expression. Doing her best to stifle another giggle, she shook her head again, "No, no~!" prancing closer to him once more, she got in a crouched position, "It's a hopper.." she whispered, as if not wanting to scare the critter off. Without warning, she leapt up to pounce at it, also in turn knocking the other cub over in the process. Unfortunately, the locus was faster... and was able to sprint off way before they both hit the ground.
Groaning with displeasure, she huffed softly, "Got away..."

Not really doing much to work on getting off the other cub, she looked down at him curiously as he questioned. Eyes snapping back up, she tries to peer around, "Uhmmm... hmm..." she had no idea... those things were so fast! And could hide in the dips and hills of the sand. A few scratches were in the soft grounding, showing where the bug had went off to, just a little at least, but she didn't notice right off the bat.
Peering back down at the cub she had pinned, another soft giggle spilled from her from his puffed up reaction. "I dunno!" she piped up back to him, shifting off of the other as he started to squirm.
She watched with amusement as he grew rather determined on the subject, smile widely spread on her maw, tail flailing behind her. Without saying a word, giggles the only sound coming from her, Aida bounded after the other cubbin, "Ok!" she chimed happily. But the locus was loooong gone by now... "It'll taste so yummy!"

"Yeah! Taste, taste!" she sing-songed, tail flicking about behind her. Surely it would taste delicious, most buggies did!
Round ears flipped up as Onuris suddenly stopped, making Aida squeak and bump into his rear accidentally. Peeking around, paws soon following to take to the other cubs side, her pale eyes scoped out the area. Squinting some, she hummed in thought, "Maybe it burrowed under ground..." she murmured, slowly looking down at the sand under her small paws. They kneaded curiously, before one began to dig at the soft ground. She'd seen some bugs do that! Finally, she gave a little huff of disappointment, "It's too fast to catch!" she remarked, looking to the other youth, "Know where some more bugs are?" she asked, face starting to light up with hope.
