RENO DONOVAN, SLAUGHTER, DARRIUM, TANZEL, OMEN
[/i] He asked. Slaughter lifted his head toward them. Did he hear right, the cubs had been born? Back in the comfort and a secure and warm den, Omen watched over Tanzel. She had six small, healthy cubs with her. It was clear the mother was very proud.[/ul][/blockquote] |

Diezel, Yasbi, Yasha, Cyber.
Yasha and Yasbi had been munching on a rabbit together as a snack nearby. They had a lot to catch up on, and Yasbi still uncertainties about her inner demon at times. She was still young and training could never be overdone in this case. Both females looked up as Darrium - Ceons' father, walked by and announced six healthy cubs had been born. Yasha cringed in memory of giving birth to her own litters - both of which held eight. The second had impaired her to where she could not become pregnant again - but she did not mind that. Her mate had, and will always be Bixbi - and the only other male she ever lain to was gone.
Cyber flicked an ear in their direction, having been somewhat near Reno. He said nothing, and did not look at them. He was silent, as if having not cared. But part of him did. These cubs would grow in a good place. With their siblings. And he had missed his chance for such close siblings. He let out a breath through his nose. Cubs were good. Cubs gave La Morte a better chance against Meurtrier - if these cubs and this family were to stick around this pride at least.
Diezel squirmed , snuggling close to his mother's warmth, suckling greedily, pawing at anyone whom came close to him as if to say 'this spot is mine, leave me alone'. |

▲ Lothaire Long
It had been many days since Lothaire had fled the battle with Siakon. They had returned to the vulcano some days after the attack but found nothing but a deserted camp. Lothaire feared the worst had happened to their comrades, but kept the spirit high for Siakon's sake. They searched far and wide and encountered various terrains till they finally caught their comrades' scent.
Lothaire paced up as the scent got stronger and stronger; "They're here! Hurry Siakon! We found them!".

Azul Suldan & Influence
The young silver child smiled as she mewled sharply before trying to squirm to take in some food. She squinted before meowing, smiling for her mother before having her share of the meal.
The crimson BloodBeast landed gracefully, dropping a massive deer down in front of Slaughter, Yasbi and Yasha before nodding in respect to everyone and dropping a pretty big hare for Reno, Darrium, Tanzel and Omen. He looked over to see a winged male, a Donovan, no doubt. He nodded to him in respect before laying down calmly. If anyone were to approach, they would be most welcome.

Najisi Kain The ess had taken it upon herself to patrol the borderlands. With an ally about ready to burst with cubs, she didn't want to take the chance of another Brynneth occuring. It wasn't that she distrusted her members, but what happened opened her eyes to the sad truth. Anyone could crack under the pressure. She couldn't get over the loss of her cubs. They weren't even cubs anymore. She was losing hope of ever seeing them again. Or Osic for that matter. She continued on her patrol, careful to watch the horizon for any that'd encroach. She looked behind the trees, behind the mountains, this was one thing she'd not fail at. A familiar scent hinted upon the wind. But instead of a joyous thought, she held only a snarl. It was Loth. That was all she could recognize by the scent. It was faint as it were. She rushed to where the wind had blown from, taking position behind a stray tree to ambush the male. He had vanished. Taking Siakon with him. She was not sure if he had betrayed them and handed her son to Meur. One thing was sure. He had a LOT of explaining to do. NO PICTURE YET CUZ YEA Cryos Suldan The young herm was curled against his mother's belly. He had already nursed a bit and the effort of getting food alone was enough to exhaust him. ((Its just easier to say him. Okay? At this stage he'll prolly be masculine anyway..)) So, he was napping. He couldn't hear nor see. But new scents could easily rouse him from his dreams. |

RENO DONOVAN, SLAUGHTER, DARRIUM, TANZEL, OMEN, SIAKON
[/i] He said and looked around at those nearby. Yasbi and Yasha. Perhaps they knew a good deal about mothering and could help Tanzel out. Then there was Cyber, his half brother, Krankheit's litter mate. Cyber joined after Krankheit had died in battle. It struck a nerve, but Reno kept his appearances up. Finally, Influence came down with a hare. "Thank you Influence, I'll take this with Darrium to the cubs. And please, do not follow me, we need to give the mother and children space." Darrium nodded to Influence and then led Reno down the path to the dens. It was a quick walk. They could have taken to the sky, but Reno liked to get a feel for the land, and Darrium did as well. Darrium took the hare from Reno once they were at the dens and walked in to offer it to his mate and sister. They both bowed their heads in thanks as he explained it was Influence who had caught it. From outside, Reno could smell it; birth. New life. Once the adult gray bloodbeast gave him the okay, Reno walked in. Six little ones. Squirming, mewling, comforted by their loving mother. It was very clear in that moment that the young would be well cared for. By their mother, aunt, father, and all of La Morte if Reno could see to it. But something else, too. He saw himself with Najisi. Would he and she be like that one day? Loving parents fawning over their young? A part of him hoped for that, but another part thought it a bad idea. They were on the brink of war. Once Reno and Darrium had gone, Slaughter stood up, yawned, and stretched. "Well then, did you guys hear that? New cubs. From our newest allies. What a delight." He said. It may have come off as sarcastic, though he didn't intend for that. Truth be told, he was a father himself. Speaking of which, he longed to see where Time was, and how she was doing. Once upon a time, those two had a thing. Siakon raced to keep up with Lothaire, a smile on her face. They had both traveled together, and in that time, Loth had become something of a father figure to her. She looked up to him and valued his opinion a great deal; and would put her life in his paws without a second to spare. And now he had lead them home; finally, after all of that time. It felt as if she'd been gone forever, too. She'd see her siblings again, mother, the pride.. it was overwhelming honestly. "Wow!" She shouted and leaped into the air as she caught up with Loth. "This place is amazing! They sure picked a great place.. I can't wait to see them all." Siakon said with a grin.[/ul][/blockquote] |

Just to make it clear, Cyber doesn't have wings~ And err, I guess I'll skip Diezel this time, not much to say ^^ Yasha, Yasbi, Cyber
Cyber flicked his ears back and forth, each time, they pointed in the direction of the new voice that spoke. He glanced back at Reno and followed his half-brother with his eyes. Something made him wonder if at some point he should talk to him, but then he sighed and sat back, resuming his blank stare and instead just paying attention to those that spoke, but not responding.
Yasha and Yasbi looked up from their meal at Influence as he dropped the deer in front of them, both glancing at each other afterwards. They finished their own meal in a few gulps, shrugging the dear off, but saying thank you to the bloodbeast anyway. "I'm going to go find Najisi, Ma." Yasha nodded, flicking her tail against Yasbi's flank and turning to glance at Slaughter, snorting loudly at his words, a smile crossing her features. "Yes, and you'll do well to enjoy them when they're old enough to roam around and pounce on your tail, no?" She teased lightly.
Yasbi trotted upwards, her ears perking at the sounds of faint excited voices, and she caught wind of Najisi' sent. Slinking towards her, she cleared her throat softly as she reached Najisi's side, her eyes questioning. [/blockquote] |

▲ Lothaire Long
The place was indeed amazing! So different from their previous territory filled with ash and rocks. It had taken Lothaire a good handful of baths to get rid of the ash from his white fur.
"It is a great place!" he replied to the teenager. 'I just hope they're all okay..' Lothaire wondered.
The duo was about to cross the tree where Najisi was hidden along with Yasbi and Lothaire seemed oblivious of them.

Influence simply nodded in respect before calling to his lord, "Sure thing, m'lord though I have some suggestions that I could speak with you and Lady Najisi about." he said before taking flight quickly and searching for any familiar signs of pridemates. He hovered for a moment as he noticed Siakon and Lothaire.. where were they? He shrugged and swooped down, though he landed calmly with a smile. "Siakon, Lothaire. Welcome home. Glad to see you're safe and sound." he said with a calm look, wings close to his sides.

Najisi Kain The ess was ready to pounce. But she was interrupted. Damnit! She shot Yasbi a glance and nodded to Loth. He'd need to be questioned before they were sure he could be trusted. But that too was ruined when Influence showed up out of nowhere and just greeted Loth like it was no big deal. If she could facepalm, she would have. She had yet to notice Siakon, which helped fueled the ess' suspicion. "Get away from him, Influence." She growled as she stepped out from behind the tree. She growled and gave the male a glare. He wasn't going anywhere near the camp until he explained himself. "Lothaire.. Stop where you stride. Where have you been? Where is--" She stopped, finally able to see her daughter. She was alive.. And not in Meur's grasp. At least.. That was one. "Siakon..?" |

RENO DONOVAN, SLAUGHTER, DARRIUM, TANZEL, OMEN, SIAKON
[/i] Then again, she probably did know. A lot of them shared pride history. He tossed his head and shrugged, mane falling across his face. "Speaking of which, has anyone seen Time around? I'd love to talk to her privately again." Slaughter winked and prepared himself for whatever the others may say. The yellow beast, clearly, had no problems with stating what he had on his mind. His attention swung to Cyber, though. The new guy. "Ey you, you've been quiet, have anything to say about all of this?" He asked as he noticed Influence had flown off. Siakon stretched out next to Lothaire. Her calm posture didn't remain for long as a large bloodbeast came before them. At first she bristled, uncertain, but then it clicked. He knew their names! He was La Morte, for sure. She was about to speak when she heard her mother's voice. Siakon turned swiftly. "Mother!" She squealed practically and dashed over to nuzzle Najisi without a moment to spare. "Lothaire's been with me the whole time, he helped care for me, we're back, mum!"[/ul][/blockquote] |

Yasha, Cyber, Yasbi
Yasha openly laughed at Slaughters sudden pouting. It was hilarious to her. "Yeah, I know. I've mothered my fair share of cubs as well - the whole pride knew about that." She flippantly replied. Then she shook her head, amusement clearly showing. "You're addicted to that gal." She continued, a smirk crossing her features. "But who knows. She always did like to wander." And as a finishing tough, she flopped over onto her side, huffing her mane out of her face. When Slaughter addressed Cyber, she glanced over to the white and red male as well.
Cyber twitched. Slowly he moved his gaze to look at the yellow male that had addressed him. He blinked, staring at him for a small while before shrugging. His maw opened, and then he coughed a bit, then cleared his throat. It had been quite sometime since he had actually spoken. "Nothing much to say. Cubs are a welcome thing in life. They strengthen bonds between others." His eyes glazed over and cast back down to the ground. "I just wish I had gotten to know my brother befor-" He cut off and turned away again. His eyes searched out for Reno again. He had not gotten to know Krankheit - he would not make the same mistake with Reno, even if he was only half his blood.
Yasbi nodded back in response. She'd seen Loth take off - and she had noticed his fear on his face during that battle. But she had not thought it to be so bad that he would have disappeared. She honestly felt a bit at fault for that - she could have prevented it if only she'd stay with Loth. Instead, she stepped out with Najisi, half blocking Lothaire's way down into the lands before the cub - no. She was not a cub any more, she was a growing, beautiful teenager. A smile crossed her features at Siakon's eager greeting. Najisi definitely needed that right now, then she glanced back to Loth. "Where have you been?" Her tone was soft though, non threatening, she was filled with warmth at the reunion before her. [/blockquote] |

Influence obediantly stepped back before looking back to Omen for some reason.. it was his instincts that told him to do so. He looked back to the queen. "Is there anything I can do for you?" he said calmly before awaiting the queen to speak. If not, maybe he could get to know the Suldans'.

▲ Lothaire Long
Lothaire froze, a familiar voice called. "Influence!" his voice filled with joy over the sight of a fellow pridemember. Ocean blues noticed a movement nearby, someone stepped out from behind the tree. Najisi!
But she looked like everything but happy to see him again? Lothaire stepped back, tail between his legs. "Uh..I--we.. Someone had to look after the kids! I saw the battle and headed back to the camp to save the cubs in case Meutrier broke through our defence. But Siakon was the only one I could find and brought her to safety. Far away from Meutrier's claws! We returned a few days later but found the camp deserted. Not a sign of life.. I feared the worst but kept looking for La Morte along with Siakon. As you can imagen; it was not easy to find you, mostly luck. But what matters now is that we finally found you guys and Siakon is safe." he explained the best he could and hoped it was good enough for the grey Queen.
He had no clue of Brynneth's betrayal and how it had affected Najisi. Lothaire had only seen a small fragment of the battle before he took off to save himself.. and a cub.

Time' stepped in and walked towards Siakon. She nodded at Najisi and looked over the now older cub. She sniffed her and walked around. "Glad to see you're fine...doesn't seem that they brought diseases with them either ,but I'll look over that more thoroughly later." her eyes shot to Lothaire, it would be more difficult with him. The skin was pale already so she'd have to bite him and pull on his skin to make sure he was fine. She opened her jaws and nipped a bit of skin before pulling on it. It was a little tight, "Drink water." she ordered. before moving away from him and sitting in her own little corner.
