Rhea was pleased to see how ecstatic the grey lioness was to have her on her nose. But she flinched slightly as she heard her call Rhea a guy. Then she heard a loud voice from behind her. She saw the silver tiger right in her face, and it was speaking some weird voodoo language. Rhea tilted her head at the sound of the strange words she heard.
"I'm sorry," Rhea said politely. "I don't speak jibberish."
Suddenly Rhea wafted herself up in the air with one swoop of her tiny wings. The bands of keylime green and pacific blue streaked around her once more, and her eyes closed. Her body spun in slow circles, then stretched and morphed into her natural form. Rhea landed on the ground gently, shook her head a little and turned to the grey lioness, her head hanging. "And I am a she," she directed at the lioness, her expression showing slight annoyance, but bearing a small, playful smile.

Fire was hearing the conversation and trying to make sense of it all. What really was confusing was why that winged lion decided to fly it solo up the mountain. If he really was a fighting sort, Fire thought at least he would have the common sense to have some back-up along with him.
It was comical to see the little bird land on Lorien's nose, smiling as Aurora tried to speak to it in a language that she couldn't quite understand. Probably because it was in the language that the bird could understand.
I'm sorry, I don't speak jibberish.
This made Fire bite his lower lip to keep himself from laughing. So the bird really 'could' speak the lion language. But.. A bird couldn't learn it. It didn't have the capacity to speak it, let alone learn it. This was all changed when he watched the bird transform into a lioness. A lioness? So Lorien 'did' make a small error. He chuckled slightly from the comment the lioness made and then whistled to show that he was impressed. "Heh heh. Do you usually fly in like that, or was that just because you wanted to look more cooler than you already are?" He winks at the lioness after he said this.

Skell turned around at the sudden voice speaking to him, his ears flattened, and the completely red eyes narrowed dangerously. A snarl escaped the dark tiger's muzzle, and it became only louder when he realized who he was speaking with.
A winged lion... Skell examined the wings this lion had, his snarl was replased by an amused smirk. It had been long since he had seen a winged one.
"There's much more you should be worried about than just an avalance" the tiger spoke, the smirk on his face widening. And, as if to agree with the tiger, the mountain shook again, sending small stones to roll down the mountain's side. "But... What would you pathetic lions know about it..."
The tiger glanced towards the peek where he had come from, not realizing what had just slipped out from his mouth. His smirk dissappeared. This mountain made Skell see odd things in his mind, things he couldn't explain. The dark tiger suddenly turned to face the winged lion again, a serious expression and slightly suspicious on his face. "What are you doing up here, anyway?"
Lumiar was greatly surprised when she realized that this "bird" wasn't actually a bird at all. The white lioness laughed, or would have laughed if she would have been able to produce sounds. It looked like she was laughing, with the exception that only a faint noise came out of her mouth as the air came out from her lungs.
The angelic lioness tried to calm down, and was able to reduce her laugh into giggling (which also was lacking the typical noise). Her ears were perked up, her tail swayed more than a moment ago. She gave a polite nod at this new lioness with the transformation ability, and yet kept her mouth tightly shut.

Moonlight gasped. The bird hovering near Lorien's head suddenly morphed into a striking lioness with a marbled blue coat. Once she had got over her shock, Moonlight couldn't stop a smile slipping onto her face. But mostly she was marvelling at the situation she was in - she was surrounded by other felines with special abilities, on the plains below an onimously rumbling mountain. Just a short while ago, she had been wandering aimlessly, after being alone for what seemed, to her, an endless age. Suddenly, Moonlight felt an overwhelming surge of joy and newfound hope as she gazed at the cats around her. For the first time in a long while, she felt like she belonged.
That was when she noticed the white lioness - she seemed to be laughing... but hardly any sound was escaping her. Moonlight frowned; then her expression cleared. She thought she understood now.

Aurora turned with a smile to look at the blue lioness in front of her.She bowed her head in greeting as she sat down, her tail moving in slow movments.
"I Knew You Weren't a Bird...."she replied smiling."You alos have Special Powers as well...Do You Not?"She asked quietly, already knowing the awnser.

Altaïr wasn't swayed by the snarl of the tiger, who didn't seem to like visitors at all. The young assassin was unusually calm, even though the wide smirk of the tiger caused the winged lion to wonder what was cranking through the strange felines skull however the brown eyed cat made no gestures towards it, neither vocal nor emotional. The rumble of the mountain caused Altaïr to latch his talon-like claws into the boulder he was standing on.
The assassin didn't reply to the tigers remark about the lions, he wasn't really sure what this feline meant with the sentence anyways. Though the winged lion narrowed his brows back at the tiger as he resived a suspisous glare; "I was sent here by my pride's counsel, to find out what is wrong with the mountain..." the young male paused for a moment as his ears laid back, "Though believe it's gonna blow up.." the assassin added as he turned his gaze to the savannah below, keeping the narrow eye'd gaze.
"If I found out what was wrong, I was orderd to stop it..." the male paused yet again and his face displayed a faint grin, "Well that was the initial order, but orders can change.." the assassin's chuckled lowly. It was clear that this assassin's wasn't one to follow orders, some may even call him treatcherous. This behavior had nearly got him edvicted from the pride not long ago, if he failed this order he would be a marked lion. Altaïr's pride of lions aren't killers, but they kill only if it serves a good porpous,
Altaïr however doesn't like to abide the creed, which makes him appear as what most associate with assassin's; treatcherous backstabbers, murderes, and simple black hearted killers. Altaïr isn't evil despite this, he can be a loyal friend, but lose his respect then you might end up dead!

Heh heh. Do you usually fly in like that, or was that just because you wanted to look more cooler than you already are?
Rhea turned to the lion with the fire red mane. She smiled at his remark, and replied. "Ha! No, but say the word and I'll fly in, crawl in, swim in, whatever. The only downside is the annoying delay of the transformation," she said, looking to where the previous transformation had taken place, as if the lights were still there. She spoke with and showed an expression of slight irritation, as if this delay had caused her problems before, which they had.
As Rhea turned around she saw the white lioness giggle a breathy laugh. It looked as if she was going to split her sides, but couldn't let out the sound. Odd. What she mute?
She then answered to the tigress's remark. She knew Rhea was a bird? How? Had she seen someone like her before? Hearing the tiger ask the rhetorical question, Rhea couldn't help but go for the stupid answer.
You also have Special Powers as well...Do You Not?
Rhea let out a short breathy laugh, with a sly look on her face. She tilted her head and replied to the tiger. "Na. It's just a hobby. You mean you can't do it?" She might have winked at the tiger, but it wasn't her style. She would rather wait to see if the tiger got the joke.

Fire looks over to the morphing ability lioness and smiled as he walked over and sat himself in front of her. "Name's Fire. Does this lioness have a name that I can call her by?" He says with a smooth tone and a smirk of playfulness that was soon followed by a wink.
(Need to keep this going. I suggest we pause the RP until Lorien posts.)

((Sorry guys that it has taken me so long to reply. Yesterday I was busy getting ready to go home, and I've been visiting family and whatnot today. Thanksgiving break, yeah!))
Lorien took a few steps back when the bird flew into the air and transformed into a lioness. Her ears flattened a bit, one because she reailzed it was a female, and two...well, her dreams of having a bird for a friend were now shot to the ground. However, she couldn't help but giggle at the jibberish remark. She just sat back and listened to the rest of the group marvel over the newcommer. She would wait to introduce herself when all the hub-bub had blown over.

"If I found out what was wrong, I was orderd to stop it..."
Suddenly, Skell burst of to a laugh. His laugh was amused, yes, and at the same time it sounded horrible. His laugh was high, and sounded more like a screech than a laugh. "Stop it?! STOP IT?!" Skell grinned at the winged lion, his completely red eyes shining in evil amusement. "You can't stop it!" he yelled, not caring if his voice was loud or not. He wasn't afraid of an avalance. Skell could easily get away with his cloud ability. "You can't stop it, even if you wanted..."
Lumiar noticed how Moonlight was watching her. She saw how the lioness with transformation ability looked at her. Her ears flattened, a sad smile appeared to her face. They understood now, or so the angelic lioness assumed.
Lumiar felt the ground shake slightly again, and immediately her head turned towards the mountain. The earthquake wasn't large this time, but it made the angelic lioness worried that it shook this often.
Was it already time for...?
She shook her head in disagreement to the question, turning to face the group again. Patiently, she finally allowed herself to sit down, to follow the group's little discussion again.

The assassin raised a brow as the tiger burst out laughing, apperiantly the fact that you couldn't stop the volcaon seemed completely hillarious to the strange feline. "Well, then I guess the order is accomplished.." the winged male replied as he turned his gaze from the tiger and out over the savannah, with the forest lining the horizon. "It would be sad to see this place turned into a heap of ash and dry lava.." Altaïr remarked as his brows narrowed.
"But, if the events that follows can't be stopped. Then what are you doing up here?" the young assassin asked as he turned facing the tiger ones again, "Shouldn't you be getting off this mountain, if it's rumbling is impossible to stop?" Altaïr added, he was getting curious to what the strange tiger was doing up here.

Rhea grinned and nodded to the silver tiger. She also saw a sad yet infinitely happy smile come upon the white lioness's face. What had she done to make her so happy. Whatever it was, Thea was delighted to make so many people smile. It was nt often that she could get a laugh or even a grin out of someone. Others just couldn't relate to her.
She turned her gaze to the winking Fire. "She does," Rhea replied. "She calls herself Rhea, and it would be lovely if Fire did the same. Nice to meet you, Fire," she said with a nod of her head. Her teal hair feel before her eyes, and she pushed it back with her paw.

"Heh heh. And this lion shall call you by that. Nice name. Got a ring to it." The red-maned lion chuckled and nodded to Rhea and then he somewhat felt the ground move. He was only able to notice it by the small stone rumbling against his right paw gently. His head then gazed towards the mountain for only.
"Feel that?" He said curiously to Rhea, walking just a tad closer to just be around Rhea. Didn't know why he did this, but he just felt as if there was something about the lioness that perked his curiosity somewhat. "I don't like the situation.. It almost feels like something big is going to happen. I don't know what.. But it going to be something big.."

Rhea heard Fire's words of the shaking ground. Yes, of course she had noticed it, but she was just like everyone else she knew. No one had a clue what the problem was, but there was a strange omen that was sent through their bones, tellin g them something wasn't right. "I feel the same way," Rhea said to him. "They happen more frequently now, and they're much less predictable." She looked to the ground that had recently shaken beneath her. "Do you think it's just nature, or that someone is causing it?"

"It would be sad to see this place turned into a heap of ash and dry lava.."
Skell's eyes narrowed, but the slight grin was still playing on his muzzle. So the lion did know this mountain was actually a very old volcano... But he clearly hadn't noticed the small lie the tiger had let out of his mouth.
The winged lion questioned what Skell was doing up on the mountain. The grin on his face vanished, and a murderous glare appeared into his eyes. "None of your business, lion" he snapped. "What I do here is my own matter, and a winged freak like you should not worry about that."
"Do you think it's just nature, or that someone is causing it?
Lumiar's ears flattened, and she suddenly seemed very nervous. She rose to her feet, having an expression of slight guilt on her face. The angelic lioness hissed once again, as if she was about to say something, comment the matter...
But no. She remained as silent as usually, stood there and watched.

Altaïr narrowed his eyes at the black feline who's eyes took on a murderous glare, as the assassin had asked the question. "You're right, it's wrong of me to wish for your well being.." Altaïr paused briefly.
"When it is not supposed to be a part of my nature.." the winged "freak" added keeping his gaze on the tiger. Well that was a partial-lie, atleast conserning how Altaïr was supposed to act in accordance to the creed; which was something he rarely did, but it truthfully applied to almost 90% of assassins.
"Then may I ask who you are, if your buisness here is classified matters?" Altaïr said giving his large stained wings a flap, throwing dust into the air.

When Moonlight felt the ground tremble as if it was terrified, she herself felt her fears grow. All her instincts were screaming for her to run, to escape while she could, but she controlled them. She had learnt to control her instincts a long while ago.
Moonlight noticed the white lioness look nervous, and she saw the slight guilt on her face. In an instant she guessed that the lioness knew something about the mysterious mountain. She felt a mixture of frustration, disappointment and, mostly, sympathy; at once, she squashed any anger. After all, it wasn't the lioness' fault she couldn't explain. Moonlight gave a small half-smile towards the pure white lioness, hoping to reassure her, just a little. She didn't know what else to do.

"Something this big?... I highly doubt that it is nature." He nods to Rhea and then he looks to the mountain that he had pointed out earlier as the odd mountain. "Maybe the ground shaking has to do with that mountain.." He said quietly to himself. There wouldn't be any doubt in his mind that there had to be a connection with the shaking of the ground and the mountain that looked so ominous from his view.

Rhea had turly had no clue about what was happening with the mountain, and nodded to Fire's first statement, understanding what he was getting at. Then he seemed to contradict himself, saying that it might have had something to do with the mountian. Rhea was about to question him, but she soon understood. As she looked to the old mountain off in the distance, she could strange vibes, a perplexing sensation seep through her. There was a vague sense that the mountain was...different. She saw around her how many creatures had gret powers. Perhaps there was someone powerful enough to change even a mountian. Rhea couldn't think o f words to say. She simply gazed at the peaks of the grey mountain.

Skell looked at the winged lion, a thoughtful shine on his red eyes. The flapping of wings... Was he trying to impress the dark tiger? If so, then it had no effect. Skell had his own way, better way to float on air...
"Skell would be my name..." he said suddenly, a slight smirk passing his lips momentarily. His name suited him well due to the sceletal patterns on his fur. And he knew it. He just couldn't remember who had given that name to him. Though, Skell assumed it didn't really matter.
All of a sudden, the tiger seemed to get a thought. "Tell me..." he said, gazing at the savannah below. It could be seen only barely, for there was some mist around these parts of the mountain. "Did you perhaps happen to see a pure white lioness? A bit longer legs than normally, and a tuft of hair...?" His tone and expression were as if the question wasn't very important. But it did matter to Skell. If she was already here... Well, then the dark tiger would need to sort things out.
Lumiar smiled faintly at Fire's words. The red maned lion was getting close to the truth. She gazed at the mountain... And couldn't help but wonder what that winged lion was searching from there. Could it be just by accident that he had flown towards the mountain?
Lumiar wasn't sure.
She let out a sigh, gazing around. She then realized that the winged lion had left his prey lying there. The angelic lioness glanced at the others, then slowly moved towards the dead gazelle. She suddenly felt a slight hunger, and quietly crouched down near the corpse, keeping a close eye on the rest of this small... group.
And when none of them was watching - or so she thought, atleast - Lumiar lowered her head towards the meat. But instead of biting, she seemed to suddenly breath out to the meat. The meat froze almost instantly, and quickly the lioness bit the frozen part. It was an odd way to eat, really... But Lumiar liked frozen things. Her triangular eyes followed the others, and her ears were perked up, listening to every word that was said.

The winged lion gazed back at the strange tiger, as the tiger spoke. "Skell, fitting name!" the assassin remarked before his gaze returned to the blurred savannah below, folding his wings onto his back ones again. The silence that assumed didn't last long, as the tiger spoke up again, the assassin diverted his attention towards the tiger, with a rather emotionless expression.
The tiger asked him about a white long legged lioness, with a hairtuft. "Yes, actually I have, I met about an hour ago. She was weird, she kept stareing at me in silence as if she was captivated by me or something. A very odd person.." Altaïr said with a short pause, "Why do you ask? Do you know her?" the assassin questioned, as his eyes narrowed at Skell.

Aurora swiveled her ears around everywhere to the conversation, her eyes locked on the mountain.She felt as if there was something...ominus about it.She shook her head and saw that he White lioness Friend ate part of the gazelle.She couldn't blame her.Everyone must have been hungry.She sat down, her tail wafting behind her as she looked down at her paw, a small ice crystal floating on a Small cloud of shadow.She knelt down, making sure no one saw as she swallowed it in silence, a bone cracking snap coming from her muzzle as she sat up once more, her eyes locked onto the mountain again.

((OOC: Was hoping to see someone else to reply before me, but seeing as how this has been paused for a while, I'll write something up.))
Skell listened at every word the winged lion let out of his mouth. His tail twiched slightly, even though otherwise he remained perfectly still. So Lumiar was here...
Skell was silent momentarily, thinking of how to explain himself out of this new situation. "Yes, I do know her..." he spoke out, gazing at the savannah below. "She isn't as odd as you might think... Or actually, not on the way you think." A smirk came to his muzzle as he glanced at the winged lion from his eyecorner. "You might not want to underestimate Lumiar, she's not exactly what she seems to be at first."
An idea came to the dark tiger's mind. If he only could make this one work the right way... "You do know she is connected to this mountain and the becoming disaster, right?" he asked, lifting an eyebrow in what seemed to be pure curiosity.

Lorien listened as the group spoke about the mountain. She herself didn't really know what was going on, not being originally from around here...but she still thought it odd all the same. She glanced to the looming peak, wondering what secrets it might hold...wondering what dangers it might bring about.

The winged male remained silent as he listend to the tiger explaining about the strange female he had met. But his last sentence caused the assassin to throw the tiger a doubtfull gaze. "She is? In what way, and what do you mean?" Altaïr questioned, if she was tied to this disaster in someway she must be important, but what pourpos did she hold.
OCC: Ah crap, sorry the short post, curretly brain dead ><;

"She is? In what way, and what do you mean?"
A slight smirk rose to Skell's muzzle momentarily before it dissappearet as a supposedly serious look came to the tiger's face. "These earthquakes..." the dark tiger begun, glancing nervously up at the mountain top. "They begun only a while ago... And they sign that this mountain, this volcano, will explode... soon." Taking a deep breath, the tiger looked down at the savannah, as if trying to search Lumiar from there. "The earthquakes begun when she appeared here. She is somehow affecting the mountain. If she is allowed to stay..."
Skell seemed to shiver at the mere thought of the erupting volcano. He turned his head at the winged lion again, wondering if he had properly caught his curiosity now. "Isn't it odd how a mute lioness has told her name is Lumiar?" He smirked again, and suddenly a cloud begun to form under him, lifting him to floar above the ground. "As I said... Don't underestimate her..." And with that, the tiger commanded his cloud to rise higher. He left the mountain and the winged lion, very pleased of what he had told about Lumiar. Now he'd only need to watch and wait...
Lumiar was done with her frozen meal, and she licked her muzzle clean from the blood. She gave a last glance at the carcass, making sure there were no frozen spots on the meat. Satisfiedly, she rose to her feet, streching herself slightly.
The angelic lioness looked at the others momentarily. None of them seemed to pay too close attention to what she was up to. To her, it seemed like a good opportunity to go find some water and then return without anyone noticing she was missing. Lumiar knew there was a small waterhole nearby, and soon enough she was taking calm steps to the waterhole's direction.

Not getting any sort of reply from Fire, Rhea shrugged her shoulders and wandered slightly away from the group. She gazed around her for a while, thinking about the group and the day. What was she going to do earlier...oh that's right! Food! Nah, she wasnit hungry anymore.
The group had quieted quite a bit, and it was a little uncomfortable for Rhea. For once she related to people she met, but they were boring her. She decided to try...something.
"Is anyone else as bored as me?" she asked.

OOC: Yay I can finally log in!!! IC: The assassin's eyes narrowed as he listend Skell's explaination, though his ears fell back when the tiger mentioned that this lioness were affecting the mountain. Now he knew what was causeing the distrubance, and an earthquake near a volcano will cause it to blow up! Altaïr had been given orders to stop the disturbance if he found it's source, and now he had it's source well atleast the tigers words didn't seem farfetched and she was afterall strange. However there was something in the tiger's smile that made the assassin have second thoughts of the stories legitimacy. As the black feline took to skies, on a cloud for that matter the two last sentences he utterd made the winged assassin just down right confused. Muteness, means inability to talk due to either damaged or non-exsistant vocal chords(sp?). But yet if what the tiger said was true, then she had told her name. Maybe the muteness had steamed from a recent accident, it was the most plausible theory, afterall this tiger seemed to know this lioness, rather too well, as if he had a past connected to her somehow. All the thinking was causeing the assassin to get restless, "Enough thought! And more action!" Altaïr mutterd as he spread his wings and soared off out over the savannah, trying to locate Luminar. But he wasn't really sure what to do when he did, ofcourse he could just ambush her, and his assignment would be complete! /If/ ofcourse the Skell's words where true. But the assassin didn't really trust the tiger, acctually he doesn't really trust anyone but still the information might be of use, for something.

Lumiar's ears perked up at Rhea's question, but, from obvious reason, she didn't reply. She just shrugged and kept going, without even hissing or nodding a reply. She so badly needed a drink now...
After walking a while, Lumiar had climbed up a hill and was now looking down from the top. The group had left behind clearly, and she wouldn't be able to see them if she went over the hill. The angelic lioness shrugged, for she wasn't going to be away long... And so, she walked down the hill, and the others disappeared from her sight.
And there it was! The waterhole she had been looking for. Lumiar smiled as she crouched down to the water's edge, licking the water up to her mouth. However, though the water would have felt cool enough for anyone else, to Lumiar it was way too warm. She frowned, blowing then at the water. Almost instantly the water froze from where the air from her mouth had hit. Momentarily she waited for the water to go cooler, and then she drank near the frozen part.
When done, she lifted her head, looking down at the melting ice that she had created by blowing air out. It was smooth, almost like a mirror. She could see the sky reflecting from it.
Suddenly her eyes widened in slight surprise at what she saw from the ice. She lifted her head up to look at the sky, and almost instantly she was on her feet. Now... There was no bird with as huge wings as those... And Lumiar had not seen other creatures with wings, except that lion from before...
The angelic lioness stood there, her head lifted up in curiosity. She had seen that lion fly to the mountain, and now he was flying up there... What had made him come back to the savannah?
