GEMINOR, BALTHIER II
[/i] Balthier II's train of never-ending questions was cut off when the older lioness shoved her paw against his muzzle and glared down at him. He smiled and shrugged in reply. "If you don't stop playing twenty-one questions anyone who may be trespassing will flee. I'm sure you don't want that. And so what if we're allies? We're loyal to Meurtrier END. OF. STORY." Snapped Gem. Then they both proceeded to continue on their way along their patrol. Though Balthier II brought up some good points. Why DID Cocaine want them, of all the possibilities, to preform a patrol? It was slightly a discomforting thought. All of that escaped her however as the scent of someone else was detected. She immediately stopped Balthier in his tracks and began to look around. He did the same.[/ul][/blockquote] |

How far had she ran..? It had felt like a few good days, but who knew? It could've been weeks, months. That was a scary thought to comprehend. But at least she was safe. Safe from the trouble and the thought of getting dealt a punishment far more severe then she'd care to experience.
Whatever this place was, it was fairly colourful looking. It had the unmistakable telltale sign that she had feared though; it was someone else's territory.
Like hell I need to get into a fight.
She scowled at herself for being stupid and careless, and slowed to a stop to catch herself and get her bearings. Nothing but mountains. Well if she had to go through them, so be it. But like most of the things in life, the female only managed to take a few steps forward before she spotted presence up ahead.[/size]

GEMINOR & BALTHIER II
[/i] Luckily she didn't actually say that or act upon it. The male spotted activity ahead, a form, of someone else. From this distance he had no idea of whether or not they were pride related or not yet. Though he hardly had a chance to figure it out before Geminor brushed past him and began to march right up to the stranger. A heavy sigh sounded from the male as he followed. "Gem I hardly think--" He began, but it was too late. She had already faced herself up with the stranger and was demanding answers. "Who are you and why are you trespassing?" Geminor demanded. Balthier II sighed and sat down, prepared for a full on bitch fight between the two. It'd be pure luck if the stranger didn't take offense to Gem's approach.[/ul][/blockquote] |

It happened way too fast for her to comprehend; the strangers that she had ran into were up against in her face now, demanding explaination and wanting to know her motives. Two of them, a male and a female whom presumably were out on patrol. At least they were a damn sight better than a few days ago. She took a step back instinctively before standing her ground without so much as a change of expression.
"Apologies,"she said, and so began to spin the story that quickly fabricated in her head as the reply went along. "I am a refugee from my pride, split because of a major dissolution and I have been wondering ever since with nothing to speak of. Sincerely, I had no idea I was even trespassing on your lands. Can you really fault me for that?"[/size]

GEMINOR & BALTHIER II
[/i] Threw in Balthier. Oh, that certainly got him quite the look from the elder female Geminor. Her glare was sharper than glass and hotter than hell. Balthier shrunk away from it sheepishly but then came up along her other side. "What I MEANT to say is you're in The Meurtrier Pride and Jaaku Clan's lands. Sort of.. shared.. thing. I don't fully understand it myself. Grump-- I mean Geminor here and I are out on patrolllllll~" He hummed. This time he got shoved slightly by the 'ess and he stepped a little farther away. "Yeah, sure, you've certainly some tale to tell don't you? Well we all do. You'll come with us. Our captain and king will decide what to do with you." She said. Balthier groaned and rolled his eyes. "Oh come onnn Gem it's not like she's trying to kill us.""YET!""Your old age gets to you.""And your youth fools you."The two sighed nearly at the same time. Geminor already began to head back to the main camp. Balthier II edged closer to the stranger. "Don't mind 'er. She's just got cherry blossom twigs stuck up her you-know-what. I'm Balthier II, by the way. C'mon, we should head back to the camp. Geminbutt will report this with or without you, and without would look bad. I can't blame you if you were to attack her now though." He said with a laugh and then began to head after Geminor.[/ul][/blockquote] |

Leonti threw nothing but a confused look at the sudden interruption caused by the male, and then the pair proceeded to bicker about whatever. She still was clouded by the initial fear of unpredictablity, not knowing what they were going to do. Thoughts ran through quickly about taking off and giving some half-winded explaination.. but no, of course she'd go under scrutiny from the.. captain and king?
She wrinkled her nose at the female as she walked away; What a bit-
Her thoughts were interrupted fast by the male and again, looked at his apparent social-ness with some frowning and confused looks. For being a stranger, the whole thing seemed a bit comical to him. "I'm.."She paused, trying to quickly think of a name. Said the first thing that came to mind. "Ryssor."

GEMINOR & BALTHIER II & COCAINE
[/i] Balthier II said as they moved along. Geminor had already made sure to run off ahead, far ahead, and alerted Cocaine. The captain was far from pleased. After all he had been in the middle of a nap when an the overexcited elder alliance'ess disturbed him over news of an intruder. So slowly he walked with her to where they would meet with Balthier II and Ryssor. "Don't mind our Captain. He's about as grumpy as one can get, probably as dangerous too, but between you and me I swear he's gay. So he can't be that bad, right? Then again they're unknown. I think I'm half gay. Are you half gay? Do you like it here so far? Do you want to tear apart Gem? I know I do, she's a bitch. Don't the cherry blossoms smell nice?" Balthier II asked. Whether or not his train of thought and questions was intentionally annoying or accidentally, he seemed to have a growing habit for it. Among his other habit of singing. He began to hum a tune.[/ul][/blockquote] |

Leonti Malvaca Jr. (Ryssor)
Of course, this male wouldn't understand how she felt she was a total stranger in a strange pride that she had just willingly tagged along in. But as.. what was his name, Balthier?, talked on and on about irrelevant topics, an idea began to form in her head.
They had no idea who she was, she had spun a fake story with a fake name and she was virtually identity free in this new land. Supposing her pursuers had given up or were scouring the lands slowly, she would have enough time to rest up and probably get an assured means of defense. So she just tagged along beside the male, sometimes giving an ackowledgement that she was listening until he started to hum a tune.
Ugh, I hate singing.[/size]

COCAINE, GEMINOR, BALTHIER II
[/i] Geminor stuttered as she went on and glared with a crooked grin at the stranger 'ess whom walked with Balthier. Slowly Gem cocked her head and her smile grew. "And Balthier! He's on in it I swe-AAH." She yowled as the Captain turned and grabbed her by the mouth. "Leave this to me. Why don't you go and tend to cubs by telling old tales or something." He said. His voice was firm, commanding and cold. This wasn't an option, it was an order. When he released her she immediately moved away and dipped her head then removed herself from the scene swiftly. Cocaine, satisfied she was gone, turned his sights back on Balthier II and the stranger with whom he walked. "Cocaine. I've no idea what Geminor told you but she's full of it. This is Ryssor. She didn't know she was tresspa-""Quiet." Cocaine growled. Balthier hushed up and sat aside while the captain moved squarely in front of the female. "Unless she's a mute she can tell me herself why she trespassed. Along with her name and what's brought her to be here. From there we decide what's next."[/ul][/blockquote] |

Leonti Malvaca Jr. (Ryssor)
Leonti rolled her eyes at the old lioness. Baseless accusations. If she wanted that, she'd just head on home again. Mentally she reminded herself to keep an eye on her.. if the trouble was worth it anyway. And nonetheless, her attention turned to the supposed 'captain'. Despite his behaviour, she was crazy enough to prefer him over the chirpy little bastard that hums tunes.
"I left my pride because of reasons, Ryssor, and I came here by accident and ran into those two. By no means am I mute, otherwise this kid here wouldn't have known my name. Answer your question, sir?" She was moody enough to warrant such a smartass response; this day would've had to come eventually but that didn't mean she had to enjoy it.
All that she did was eye the male sizing up in front of her and waited his reaction.[/size]

COCAINE, BALTHIER II
[/i] Cocaine asked. To not notice the markers on the border was odd. Which left him to wonder if the patrols had actually done their jobs. Which was not only to make sure no one crossed in, or left without notice, but to remark the territory border. So either this female had a poor sense of smell or the pride was slacking. Both were, or had, poor excuses. "Cut your attitude. You're a stranger on another prides' lands. At least have the self respect to not be a smartass with the second highest ranking official of those lands. And yes, it does. Now the more important question. Are you looking for a new pride or just passing through?"Off to the side Balthier had begun to hum again. [/ul][/blockquote] |

Leonti Malvaca Jr. (Ryssor)
The big question that she had to answer, right there and then. But she already had it in her mind. She ignored his passive-aggressive tone though. As she had plainly observed, it was better coming out of the mouth of a complete stranger who didn't know her at all.
"If it is okay, I would like to take up residence in your pride," It was a short, yet honest reply. "If your royals permit it obviously. I have survived in the wilderness on my own for weeks on end, I can hunt effectively. But if you're not interested, I will walk away."
Throughout all this, she never dared to betray her inside image and just kept the facade up. It seemed like there was a hole in her story; she knew she was trespassing all along, but that was just it.[/size]

COCAINE & BALTHIER II
[/i] Cocaine said, and then with that he turned and left, headed for the throne to find and talk to Funeral regarding this matter. Balthier II got up and rolled his eyes. "Well aren't you glad THAT'S over. And without a scratch, aren't you lucky. I'd say he favors you, but I still think he's gay. But now! Since it's just you and me, care to learn a bit about Meurtrier?"[/ul][/blockquote] |

She gave a small, faked grin. "Yes, sir."
And with that said, he was gone. A small feeling of relief came over her. For whatever reason, he had believed her story and hopefully.. Lord Funeral as well. She wrinkled her nose at the thought of the name, but she had heard everything so why was she surprised?
"I suppose I am lucky," She admitted to Balthier, admitting that the captain was a bit intimidating. However, it was now back with the kid, who started to ramble on again. Gay? Favoured her? At this point she didn't really care. She just shook her head. "So what goes on around here? Anything important I must need to know?"
Suppose if she was going to be the new meat, she would have to know what goes on and then just blend in.[/size]

Osic Donovan
Purpled gaze followed his own casted shadow from high above. A familiar figure was making his way through the land. It was unmistakably Cocaine. Curiosity as to what he was doing actually moving about made Osic smile. Banking a bit towards the way that the Captain was leaving Osic spotted BalthierII and a stranger.
Swooping down low before coming up to a stiff legged land, the adolescent happily trotted up, catching the ass end of the female's question. "The only really important thing you need to know is that Balth here will eat your soul while you sleep." Osic chuckled and nudged the other male playfully before meeting the 'ess' gaze. "Heyo! I'm Osic Donovan, but you can call me Ozzy... Or whatever else you like I s'pose." His grin was genuine as he tilted his head, expecting to know this female's name.
