The Distant War

((I'm going to use Phelai))

The wind was calming as Phelai let it run through her mane. It was only then that she noticed the vibrant colours of the sun rising over the savannah, she had allowed herself to loose track of the time as she thought of all that had happened to her recently. Though now she would have to leave the comfort of her thoughts and do the days hunting for her pride: however as of recently more lions seemed to be willing to join her and the work load had lessened.

She didn't want to leave the comfort of her solitude, she liked the quiet and peace she got from being alone, and didn't like the noise and bustle of her pride. Furthermore, recently there had been a rising amount of tension between her father and her brother, and preferred to stay away from the power struggle.

She decided to stay here for a little while longer, and lowered her head onto her paws, the cool stone comforting as the air around her began to heat with the suns rays. Slowly she let her mind wonder, thinking of all the things she could do if she hadn't been the youngest sibling, or had left when she had been given the chance. This was the normality for her mornings and didn't really mind all that much either, she'd do anything to get away from that place.

(Hey it turns out I don't have a character sheet for my character oops xD so I'm gonna use the name Alphonse x3)

The sun has finally decided to share it's glorious hues across the Savanna, creating long, winding shadows which hated the light and hid behind rocks and trees.
Alphonse, a lanky but not bone thin, golden lion, had trodden into the nearby pride that morning, and instead of being met with vicious agression, was met with confusion and a bout of lions who simply ignored him, having better options to focus on.
This didn't distress the lonesome lion, he preferred this to the agression he was usually met with when attempting to scavenge food from prides he passed.
He gazed upon his surroundings through his brown vivid purple tinted eyes, surrounded with brown rings like thick eyeliner. The smell of rancid meat filled his nostrils and he began to trot in its direction however it wasn't unil long that he came to a surprising halt when he accidently toppled over a rather beautiful lioness simply enjoying the sun.

(OMG!!!! I forgot I'm so sorry (( I hope you still want to continue this???)

Phelai closed her eyes in content, letting the last rays of the sun soak into her pelt. Suddenly the weight of a fully grown lion was on top of her and she toppled over with surprise and from the pure strength of the lion. She landed on her back, her eyes wide, but was unable to move for a few seconds, her body rendered motionless due to shock. She blinked slowly and then quickly got up and shook the dust from her body.

"Wh-Who are you?" she asked, her voice slightly shaky, but her face only slightly showing her surprise. She had never seen this lion before, and seeing as she had a tendency to watch all of the pride members when bored she figured he was more than likely a stranger. She was now hesitant, and took a slightly defensive position. She wouldn't be quick to let this lion know her true rank within her pride, as royalty, and just acted as a regular lioness.

She looked up at him, his pelt shining in the evening light, and his eyes reflecting the vibrant hues of yellow from the sun. No males around here looked quite like him and she was then certain that he was an outsider. Her father wouldn't do kindly to this male. He was struggling to feed the members of the pride as it was. Though she couldn't simply tell him to leave. She decided she should find out why this male was here in the first place.

She watched him intently and awaited his answer. However, she figured dealing with this male would be better than doing the daily hunt with the other lionesses.
