CANNIVAL [/size][/font] Cannival had finally arrived back home.
It had been.. what.. years now. And a lot of things had changed in that time. It was ages ago since she had seen her mother or father.. then again, she had heard the news that he had been killed. And her mother gone missing. It was sad to think about, but eventually Cannival moved on. Went about her business.
And what was her business? Roaming like an idiot. Not doing anything. No cubs, no mate, no sense of having a goal. She just lived life alone until she couldn't take it anymore.
So she came back home.
And what did she find? A helluva lot of change, for damn sure.
She identified as a second generation Donovan and she was given residence in the pride. It was different, Shadow Veldt. Nothing was more nostalgic than their old home at Volcano, but she had caught scents of others so she kept away.
And now here she was, in the Veldt, all alone and with little family that she was familiar with. The Donovans had moved on, sired their children, and those children sired their own and she was left behind.
A particular day was spent around the fields, her ears folded back onto her head as she tried to process what she had done with herself. She was miserable.
She missed her parents.[/color]

ASESINO, CASPER, GEMINOR
[/i] He asked, nodding to the female nearby. Asesino paused to look at who Casper pointed at, meanwhile, Geminor seemed to have drifted off into a nearby dimension. Off in lala land. "Oh dearie, that's my sister, Cannival. Come, Casper, Geminor." She said and walked over to her sibling with a smile. Although Cannival appeared down, this was.. exactly why Asesino approached. "Cannival, sister. It's been /so/ long. I hope you recall your dear sister Asesino, yes? This here is Casper, my step son, and Geminor, one of our nie.. ne.. uh, one of our sister's children. Flame's child." She purred. Geminor flickered out of his state of lost confusion and looked at Cannival in surprise, as if she'd just popped up from the ground. "Ello dearie!" Geminor said. Casper inched forward and dipped his head in greeting.[/ul][/blockquote]

CANNIVAL [/size][/font] God damn.. it had been a while since she had heard that voice. It was almost like she was in a dream, distant, far, remembering her cubhood. But her mind didn't deceive her that time. She recognised Asesino from her tone of voice, her appearence, the way she conducted herself. Cannival could hardly contain excitement, even in her old age, as she greeted the group in earnst.
"The heck are you talking about, of course I remember you!" She said, bumping heads with her sister. And then she looked to the two figures and gave them nods of greetings. She was happy to see that Asesino had a family, and surprised to see Flame did as well.
She smiled to them both. "Nice to meet family. It's.. been a while, hasn't it?"[/color]

ASESINO, GEMINOR, CASPER
[/i] noise. "Don't mind Geminor, just up there in age. That happens more lately. Has me worried but we take good care of our own, don't we, Casper? Why don't you take Geminor to the water.. I bet he could use a drink." Asesino said with a fond smile. Casper nodded. "Alright ma." He said. "Come on Geminor, let's get a drink." Casper then helped guide Geminor to the water.. which was hard to accomplish, but not entirely impossible. Asesino looked back at Cannival, alone with her sister. "It has been years, it really has.. Casper is my mate's son with.. Cocaine, I think. Don't ask.. too confusing. I love him like my own though. And dear Geminor.. I think he's nearing his own. It's nice to know she's got family though; and me as well." She nuzzled Cannival again. Damn. It felt nice to see siblings after so long. "I hope you're staying this time! And hey, if you're fearing old age, I've got quite the cure." She chuckled, thoughts on Jasper.[/ul][/blockquote]

CANNIVAL DONOVAN [/size][/font] Cannival watched with bemusement at Geminor and Casper as they left the scene, leaving the two sisters to their conversation. But the first time out of her sister's mouth had piqued Cannival's curosity on all fronts. "Cocaine.." She struggled to remember.. there was too many to remember. "Oh.. Mother's and some other male's cub, right? So half brother. Vaguely remember it." And indeed, she didn't prod much into the thing about how Asesino's mate (presumably a male) and Cocaine.
She gave a laugh and nuzzled Asesino back. "Damn right, I'm staying. Being solitary wasn't just for me. It's nice to see familiar faces after so long. I was getting worried that things had changed too much." And then her ears pricked up at the deviousness that Asesino was expressing. "Eh? What are you on about now, 'Sino? Nothing changed, I see."[/color]

ASESINO
[/i] She chuckled. Though Asesino was surprisingly.. healthy, and seemingly young. Not by a whole lot compared to her sister, but enough for there be a difference to pick at. "Great! I'm glad to hear that, and, my mate. Seeeee, dear, he's got a magic 'spell' to keep you from aging. At a small price, but I think it's entirely worth it." She said with a snicker.[/ul][/blockquote]

CANNIVAL DONOVAN [/size][/font] Cannival was briefly surprised to hear that - Cocaine, the little illegitimate runt, was Commander of Meurtrier Pride? How things had changed around here. It was strange to think that Mother would actually have mated with anyone other than Father.. but things changed, she supposed. Her thoughts went to how she found out that Father had been killed. Saddened her greatly, even if she hadn't gotten along with him, or didn't get to know him much at all. So she couldn't really blame any of her family.
She could only really blame herself. After all, she left them behind and lost all her years. It depressed her.. but in the end, she'd deal with it. Asesino's voice bought her back home. She looked at her sister and scrutinised her with a hard look, before frowning. "Ugh, really Asesino?" She asked incredibly.[/color]

ASESINO
[/i] Asesino purred and rolled off to her side, stretched out and kneading the ground with her paws. "Unless you have someone, hm?" She asked.[/ul][/blockquote]

CANNIVAL DONOVAN [/size][/font] Cannival watched as her sister hit the ground, stretching out in a very lewd position. However, she just continued staring ludicriously. Had Asesino really gotten this.. perverted in age? Geez.. the times when the big red female was sweet and innocent.. hah, yeah right.
And then the subject of a mate came up. "Uh.. no." She replied, obviously a bit uncomfortable with the subject.[/color]

ASESINO
[/i] Asesino said as she began to groom her chest and face. "Plus, could always use one more in the den." She knew just how Cannival felt about this, which was why she pushed, but it was playful. "Oh you know I kid you, dear.. a little. Anyway, it's good to have you back! After so long, too. You know what we need? Juicy sister gossip."[/ul][/blockquote]

CANNIVAL DONOVAN [/size][/font] Cannival frowned again, staring at Asesino with a very hard look. There was some sort of ulterior motive for her to push something like that. What was wrong with her? Then again.. what was wrong with Meurtrier altogether? How hard she had suffered culture shock when she saw other prides that didn't act like Meurtrier.
She went to answer. "Sister gossip? Really? Well.. I don't have anything to offer." She admitted - really, all the years gone by and nothing.. well, nothing she really wanted to talk about.

ASESINO
[/i] Asesino got herself comfortable and encouraged that Cannival did as well. She patted the spot beside her, gave her chest a few licks, and nodded. Everything was ready for the gossip! "Well, latest here is that Cocaine, Nerante -- our healer --, and Ryssor got into a nasty affair. Stella, too, but by extension. You see, Cocaine swooped Ryssor up. But she'd been mates with Nerante! Whatcha make of that, huh, sis?" She asked, leaning in.[/ul][/blockquote]

CANNIVAL DONOVAN [/size][/font] Cannival sat down. While her sister was acting different, she was still thankful to know a familiar face. She listened in intently, but already the details were leaving her. Mostly because she had no idea. "Uh.. who the hell is Stella, Ryssor and Nerante?" She asked.

ASESINO
[/i] She sighed, shaking her head. Asesino understood childpains.. but not in the same way. A distant, cold rejection, rather. "Nerante.. son of Caine and Viciado. Viciado was our sister, Flame's, daughter. Terrible.. just terrible what's happened. Our father must be rolling in his grave." Asesino nodded as if she knew for sure. Though there wasn't a doubt in her mind... given the chance, Asesino could do better than anyone else here.. alongside her siblings, of course.[/ul][/blockquote]

CANNIVAL DONOVAN[/font]
Cannival gave a small laugh and tutted, tail flicking and lulling every so often. "Drama, drama.. then again, we weren't far from it in our time also," She mused, remembering the various things that went on in her cubhood. What a mess that was. But her heart wrenched at the mention of Flame and the death of Viciado. The niece she never got to know. It was sad to think that no matter how close they were by blood, they were as distant as strangers could be. She'd missed out on a lot.
"Shame.. shame. She murmured.[/color]
