Tomorbaatar, all charm and easy smiles, stood and watched the horde as they made their march back to the homelands, tail swaying gently behind him. Somewhere off to his right, a dark lioness was patting the last of the freshly-dug earth into place, covering a tuft of stray, rainbow feathers out of sight. One might mistake this as some sort of kindness. Burying the one that they had so mercilessly hunted down and killed. However, to know of the Nergui would be to know that this was no kindly deed. Their belief in Tra Ord Omak compelled it of them.
Returning the stolen power of the Old One back to the earth where he slept eternal.
"It is done," Mawasii chimed, "when can we leave?"
"So eager to be away?" The iron-pelt lion replied, turning his gaze back to their new 'recruit', "I wish to savour this moment a little longer."
"Of course you do," the female replied, moving over to the dark female, emblazoned with red.
"You are very beautiful," Mawasii complimented, "your markings are unique and your size. You would make a fine braak." Her accent was southern for she was one of the newer recruits into the Nergui ranks - alongside her brother who was back at the horde's settlement. She had found a strange sort of peace amongst the 'savages' and though she wasn't as religious or supersticious as them, had felt a kindred spirit to their fight. She often wondered whether her father would have liked them, too, if he had still been alive.
"I am Mawasii," she introduced, "what is your name?"

Koka watched as the dark lioness and steely lion buried the dead form of the Goddess. How lucky for her, she earned two body guards during her assault of one of their pride members. The blood from the wounds on the side of her head had already stopped bleeding, but blood caked her ebony fur where the blow had been dealt. It all happened so fast and Koka's mind was still reeling.
How had she ended up in this mess? Oh, that's right. A Vision had led her to the pride's hunt. The rest was completely fuzzy to her, but she certainly had gotten herself into quite some trouble this time around, and she was well aware of it. Otherwise she would have been doing her damn hardest to fight her way out of this situation. As it was, she was surrounded by a group of lions, obviously a pride, and said pride had managed to kill a Goddess. She wasn't going to fight her way out of this one; not yet anyway. Of course it didn't mean she had to be happy or nice to her captors.
Looking down at the lump in the earth, the only indication left of of the Goddess, Koka almost felt a pang of remorse. Despite the fact that the rainbow feathered Goddess had something to do with her erratic behavior during the hunt, it was strangely disorienting to think that beings she had always thought immortal were, well...not.
Koka had been tuning out her two body guards as she attempted to get her thoughts in order. In fact, she was so in her thoughts that she almost didn't realize that the lioness was speaking to her. Turning her violet eyes away from the mound of dirt, Koka practically glared death. She ignored the comments about her beauty. At any other time she would have taken the compliment and ran with it, but now this day. Not as a captive.
"Koka." She answered bitterly. "What is going on here? Why would you feel the need to hold me captive?" Best to find out information before beginning to raise hell.

"Well, sorry to disappoint, but you are now." Tomorbaatar replied, a hint of impatience lacing his tone. With a soft growl he circled back behind the dark female and gave her a shove forwards, his teeth laid bare. "Don't make this get ugly, now."
Mawasii, for a long moment, said nothing, her blue eyes watching the female with a sense of pleading.
"Don't let there be any more blood shed. Not this day."
A stray rainbow feather tumbled across the dust, caught in the wind. "With the Nergui its succumb or die. There is no middle ground."
"That's right. Soon you may be one of us and what a prize you will be. The males will hunger after a female like you." He growled again, snapping his jaws together. "Now move."

"We can't walk away. Who would dare defy the Warlord's order? Not I. Not Tomorbaatar." Mawasii returned softly.
The male lion sank his claws into the earth then and bared his teeth, lifting his head with a show of dominance. His patience was waning and time was ticking. The horde were gone and at this rate they'd miss all the festivities back at the settlement. Ok, so he hadn't done any fighting, but he had still been there.
"Its submit or die, bescr, now let's go." With a growl, the male shoved forwards, clearly intending to physically shove the dark lioness forwards. Mawasii stepped closer, a lip curled in the beginnings of a snarl that did not quite reach her eyes.
"Do not misunderstand me, female. I am a patient lion but only to a certain degree. You are coming with us dead or alive; its your choice. Our warlord might be a little angered at being denied his slave, but your pelt will make a fine trophy indeed."

Koka snapped at the male as he dared try and push her along showing she she felt about submitting to anyone. But with a warning growl and swipe of her paw, Koka tentatively moved in the direction that they had wanted her to go. Her mind raced with ideas and possible escape routes, but there wasn't much promise in what she could come up with. Her best shot would be to injure one of her captors, preferably the male, before making a mad dash to safety. As much as Koka reveled in fighting, she also knew when to cut her losses and make haste to safety.
Licking her maw, the lioness glanced around herself, trying to gauge the terrain. Unfortunately it appeared as if luck was not with her. There was nothing to really hide within or behind if she managed a clean get away. Just open plains for as far as the eye could see. It would be quite a hefty run to break away. Could she do it? Would she be able to withstand her extreme fatigue?
Guess there was only one way to find out. She'd only get one shot at this.
Koka barely came to a stop before she whirled herself around. With ears back, teeth shown, and claws outstretched, Koka lunged at Tomor. She aimed for his front legs. This attack was clearly desperation as she moved to injure the male she he would not be able to pursue her as easily. All she'd need to do was land one good blow either with her claws or teeth. Whichever it would take.
Then she'd have to run for it and pray that Mawasii would give up, or separate herself enough from Tomor that Koka would be able to attack her without fear of being attacked by both of them at once. Already she was opening herself up for the two of them to gang up on her, but hopefully her little 'surprise' attack would buy her time to get the hell out of dodge before Mawasii could join in the fight.
