"Scared?" He asked with a raise of a brow. "If you want to become strong, the first step is to get rid of any type of fear you might have." He simply said as they reached a good spot, he stopped. It wasn't like he wouldn't be close, but he didn't want the cub to know that. It'd kinda defeat the purpose of this little drill.
He shrugged the idea of the cubs mother. "Females in the pride really don't have much say in what happens." He said with a smirk, "once you're older, you'll understand that a male's word is much more important than that of a female." At least in the pride. It was all that mattered. Which was probably why he failed so much to seduce females outside of the pride. He really needed to work on that part.
"More or less." He said looking down at the cub. "It's not that hard, really. Just stay away from anything that has teeth or a stinger." It was pretty basic, but hey, what could happen? He'd be close by, if the cub were to scream, he'd be there before any real danger happened. He knew he couldn't leave the cub completely alone, what if something were to happen involving a outsider of the pride? He'd have some issues to deal with then.
"What do you say?"

"I never said I was scared," Bwana said quickly, his eyes narrowing. Scared, huh? Worried, maybe, but scared? He'd show him. The sun was already starting to set. It would just be a few hours, he told himself.
"Fine," he said as he held his head up a bit higher. "I'll show you." And himself. This would be a good test to see how he did, on his own in a dangerous environment, without his mother. He turned his back on his brother as he headed out a bit further just to prove his point and, once he found a nice, scorpion-less area, sat down.
Blue eyes watched the sun set and, as it settled past the horizon, heard the nightlife start to buzz. Bugs and small mammals and all sorts of things were just starting to wake up. Maybe if one of those little critters ran by he'd have a midnight snack.

Bwana watched the adult walk away and tried to squish the fear that welled up inside him. He knew it was dangerous out here, but he also knew he wasn't an idiot. He could avoid any danger very easily: by staying awake and keeping an eye out for it.
The night passed slowly for the little leopard, but he did a good job in staying awake. A few times scorpions and other dangerous bugs crossed his path, and he was terrified, but he managed to evade them without getting stung. He found a rock to stand on that helped him keep an eye out for any bugs that might try to creep up on him, as well as bigger leopards, cheetahs, or lions that might roam around in the rouge lands.
Finally the sun began to rise. Bwana yawned and blinked sleepily, but didn't budge from his rock. He had to wait here for Rynskald to return, after all.
