That's alright! Will you come back after?

Ok ^^ who starts btw?

ok :D

Bavarian was with his pride, the females were always sent out to hunt. He squinted up at the sky, his strange tail patting the ground. His antenna twitched, and he watched as a few male lions looked at him funny. He was an outcast, he looked much different from everybody else...

Bavarian got up and walked away from the mocking males, his glasses almost falling off his face. He sat in the shade of a few trees, not like they provided much anyway.

Bavarian sighed, and he decided to take a walk to get away from the others. He stood up, walking into the dull yellow brush. Everything was dying because of the drought, and food was scarcer than ever... He started to unintentionally wander towards the enemy's territory, his mind clouded with thoughts.

Bavarian was looking down, passing by Serrabi without even noticing. He looked like an alien, his fur was purple and his mane was a strange teal. He had glasses and antenna, and there were golden rings around his wrists and ankles.

Bavarian did a double-take, looking at Serrabi. He didn't recognize her, and he then put 2 and 2 together. She was apart of a different pride, and he jumped. He seemed afraid of her, and he knew his pride leader would want him to kill her. But he couldn't bring himself to it, so he just awkwardly stood there, staring.

Bavarian tried to stay confident, he was a huge male after all... he held his head high, keeping his posture. He didn't move though, not even unsheathing his claws. He noticed her do it, which made him nervous... but he kept his stance.

(don't worry about it ^^)

(lmao alright) Bavarian lowered his head just a little, looking around. "I don't really mind, patrols aren't doing their jobs anyway. It might teach them a lesson to keep an eye open rather than goof off..." he rolled his eyes, stepping back a little. He didn't want to keep conversing with her, and he looked around for a quick escape.

Bavarian tilted his head a little, "stunning?" He seemed surprised, "you think it's stunning? All the others pick on me for being different." He looked down for a moment, but then he returned his gaze onto her. "I'm not entirely sure." (I'm really curious but it's up to you lol)

Bavarian slightly blushed, chuckling a little. "Well thank you," he looked away, "you should return before you're missed." He looked back at the way he came, noticing the lionesses Serrabi ran into emerging from the bushes. "And before they realize I'm talking to a lioness from a different pride." (Ooh that's really cool! but poor Serrabi D:)

Bavarian nodded, not saying anything in return. He walked past the lionesses, who glared at him. He looked away from them and returned to his pride, where the leader was up on the ledge. He seemed to be giving a speech, so he hurried over, looking up at him. The leader was announcing the death of a few scouts after they had been ambushed by the enemy pride.

deaths*

(Don't be sorry, it's ok!) Bavarian gasped at one of the names, his ears flattening. Some of the other lions held their heads low, beginning to mourn the losses. Once the leader finished the speech of the lost ones, the entire pride roared in sync as a way to pay their respects. It could be heard from miles away, and the crowd scattered once again. Bavarian returned to under the trees, his ears still laid flat. His brother's name had been spoken among the rest of the deceased, and he was having a difficult time accepting the loss. His brother was always there for him, always watching his back and protecting him from the others until he was old enough to fend for himself.

Bavarian kept himself away from the others, it was a hard day for all of them. He sighed heavily, his eyes locked onto the ground. Two males approached Bavarian, and he looked up at them. One of them growled, "you gonna cry because your little 'hero' is dead? He got what he deserved..." he grinned, he just wanted to make Bavarian upset. Bavarian glared at him, "don't you have anything better to do? We all lost someone who meant the world. Go bite a zebra's ass..." he looked away. The lion roared, "what're you gonna do about it?! It's not like you have any worth. You're just an outcast, an abomination to our species!" He raised his big paw into the air, his claws glinting as they slashed into Bavarian's face. His glasses fell off, blood dripping and splattering all over the ground.

(That's fine!)

Bavarian looked at the blood that gushed from his wound, and he looked up at the male. He stood up, almost towering over him. He growled, unsheathing his big, thick claws. He tackled him and pinned him down, roaring wildly. The other male grabbed Bavarian's mane, ripping him off the other. Bavarian shoved him away, beginning to crush the first lion's throat. He was sick of this, he didn't want to be treated like this anymore! (that'd be really cool lmao!)

Bavarian continued to strangle the first lion, completely oblivious to the other. He just wanted them to leave him alone already, he couldn't take it anymore! The first lion kicked at Bavarian, struggling to get away from him. He eventually let go, before he was knocked unconscious. (sorry for the late reply hhh D:)

The first lion wheezed, "Hah, he must've really thought he would've won... where'd he get that confidence to stand up for himself? Tch." He rolled his eyes, looking at the other lion. "Let's go," he started to walk away from Bavarian's unconscious body, the other following behind him.

(Ooh! Good luck!!!)

(Ohh :D) Bavarian woke up a few moments later, jumping awake. He looked around nervously, where was he? He noticed he was just a few feet away from where he previously was, "huh?" He said to himself, rubbing his head. He felt something wet, and he pulled his paw back to see it covered in blood. He groaned, noticing the pain in his head now. He stood up, walking back to under the trees, glaring at the other pride members. He didn't want anybody to pay attention to his wounds, so he didn't go to the healer. Besides, his mane probably covered the wound in his head.

Bavarian sighed, watching the lionesses leave the pride to go hunting and scouting. A few males left with them too, probably just to help out with finding food and defending it. It was hard to come by now... he sat up and walked over to a different tree that provided more shade, and he yawned, feeling drowsy from that fight. He shut his eyes, starting to drift off into a nap.

(sure, I can do that ^^)

Bavarian woke up the next morning, yawning. He felt better than yesterday, but the pain still lingered. He got up and sighed, looking up at the sky. The sun was just beginning to rise above the horizon, and he watched the sky brighten.

(That's good!!)

Bavarian wasn't hungry today, and he knew the scouts and patrols needed food more than him. He didn't do anything but be a problem anyway... he sighed, looking down at the ground. He noticed a few lions step out of their dens, but he didn't pay much attention to them.

Bavarian huffed, standing up. He decided to go to the lake today, it was the last place within 50 miles with water. He started on his way, walking out of the pride territory and towards the lake. He wondered if he'd find prey there, he wanted to be useful for once.

Bavarian thought he heard something scream, but he told himself his mind was playing tricks on him. He continued on his way to the lake, the golden rings around his wrists and ankles glowed faintly. He came into Serrabi and her friends' lines of sight, but he still hadn't noticed them because of their coats camouflaging so well.

(hehehe) Bavarian saw Serrabi, and he came running over. He was excited to see her again, and he still didn't notice her friends. "Hello again!" He grinned, completely forgetting why he came to the lake.

Bavarian flinched, "oh, I thought it was invisible." He chuckled a little, before taking off his glasses and jumping into the water, accidentally splashing Serrabi. He put his head underwater, letting the water soak into his thick mane. His mane drooped in his face, covering his eyes. He looked silly.

Bavarian pulled his big paws up out of the water, moving his mane out of his eyes. "Not really, surprisingly!" He grinned, rubbing the back of his head with his paws to get the dried blood off.

Bavarian kept dunking his head into the water, small clumps of fur came off with the dried blood. He huffed, throwing the fur away from the water. Most of the dried blood had been removed now, and he swam over to Serrabi. "I never got your name, I'm Bavarian." He smiled a little.

Bavarian sneezed, and then he laughed. "Alright then, Serrabi, you're on!" He swam after her, splashing her in the face like she did to him. He laughed a bit more, "Hah! Got you!"

Bavarian sneezed again, "hey!" He laughed, shielding his face with his arms. He grinned a little, swimming out of the way. He went under and disappeared for a few moments, before resurfacing and grabbing her by the legs and pulling her under. He laughed again, letting go so she could resurface too.

(That's good :D)

Bavarian swam up to her, "sorry, are you alright?" He sat down beside her, his mane drooping into his face again.

Bavarian smiled back, "that's good. And yeah, I should too." He smiled a little wider, "I hope to see you again soon." He grinned, moving his teal mane out of his face again. He got out of the water, shaking himself violently to get the excess water out of his fur. He walked over to his glasses and put them on, the hot sun starting to dry him off already. (That's good!!)

(whoops sorry for replying late, and sure, np!)

(Yay!!)
