She wasn't so much lost, really, she had never acctually been found in the first place. her silver grey body shimmered int he mid morning sunshine, glistening off the slate purple markings which cascaded down her body.
Silvery eyes looked to the sky for a moment, a feeling of great loneliness washed over her, though she could not fathom why, her memory had not so long ago taken a vacation from her mind and now she could do nout but wander the world in search of something, anything that may jog her mind.
Only on thing floated her memory, ehr name,a nd somehow the way to hunt, for she was doing well in that department, though she felt this more instinct than anything else.
Zambarau sighed and shook ehr head, what did it matter, all was well in the world, she supposed, it wasn't like she had lost anything after all.

To be lost, Elua had learned, one needed to be going somewhere first. Elua and her group, her beautiful family of loving souls bound together by nothing but love and trust, were never lost. The only destination they had was each other, and possibly their next brush with love.
And every now and again, Elua would wander off once the group made comfortable for the night and mingle with others nearby. Sometimes, these minglings kept her away all night as she exchanged passions with another. It was after such a night that she found herself wandering back to the group, happily humming. Lions made excellent lovers when coaxed out of their shells.
And a speck of what seemed to be polished mountain rock met her orange eyes in the distance. Intrigued, the brown cheetah made her way nearer, and soon noticed it was not a mountain rock, but a rather beautiful cheetah. Ah...her morning was getting even better!
"Good day, little mountain!"

The voice behind her made her pause, still as the mountain she was being addressed as, Silver eyes slowly moved from their destination to this new face. A smile rose on her lips and she laughed gently, surprised at what the other female had called her.
"If I am a mountain then you must surely be the ground we walk upon." She purrs, her shoulders tenced a little as she lookd over the other female, she couldn't rememebr if she had met any other cheetahs for a long time, perhaps she was tresspassing? "I'm not intrueding on your territory am I?" She whispers, her voice rather raspy and airy, as if she had not used it for quite some time.
Zambarau glanced away, looking perhaps for a way to flee should she be attacked, territory was after all sacred to some creatures and she, well she was but a lost rogue.

Elua laughed. "Ah, maybe I am. Maybe I am the flower thrown to the winds." She liked this cheetah already. A quick mind under that beautiful fur! At the other's question, she merely smiled and shook her head.
"Ah no, I have no territory to call my own. My friends and I travel all around, passing through the lands of whoever will tolerate a bunch of rogues like us~" Her voice was sing-songy, but not high-pitched...a pleasant voice. "Are you looking for someplace to settle yourself? Or are you traveling about?"
She hoped the little mountain wasn't traveling on her own...Even Elua, who went off on her own quite a bit, couldn't imagine being on her own for too long. She was just too much of a social creature.

Zambarau laughed lightly, her breath airy, a smile danced inher eyes, she had not spoken to anyone for so long, or so it felt, her mind and tongue had forgotten how to do the simplest of things.
"Oh..Well thats good." She smiled wistfully, as if this simple peice of information was just what she wanted to hear, her mucles relaxed and she sits slowly her pale silvery eyes looking over the cheetahress before her. "I suppose I don't know what I am doing." She answers, perhaps this sounded mysterious, but truthfully she could not remember.
"It's been a while since I have spoken, or travelled with anyone. It must be enjoyable to have friends around you as you go." She pururs her tail swaying and sirring up the dust around her.

Elua nodded. "I've been around others for so long...I'm not sure I would be able to travel alone without finding someone to travel with after a bit." She shrugged. "I like being with others too much..."
The little mountain sounded a little like a lost one. To not know what one is doing..."I'm sure you'll find something to give you direction...Even if it is nothing more than to see another sunrise in a new place." She giggled. "I find that direction a fun one. It's always nice to see how the colors play in the sky."

Zambarau smiled turning her gaze upon the horizon her pale silvery orbs looking wistful, glassy, lost, perhaps she would go in that direction now it had been suggested. It didn't really matter in the long run she would have to go one direction or the other.
"It must be nice not to travel alone all the time, sometimes I wish I had a companion, but then.." she paused and her gent;e row wrinkled. "Sometimes 'm just not so sure about having someone else around." Se sighed gently "Strange huh?"

Elua shook her head. "It is not so strange. I've been moving for so long, I have no idea what I would do if I stayed in one place for more than a few nights!" She giggled. "When one is new to things, or has not done something in a long while, it is no surprise that one would be unsure." The cheetah blinked, and looked as if she'd had an idea.
"I know! If you would like, you can travel with my group for as long as you like. All are free to come and go from it as they please, and we have but one rule...Love as thou wilt."

Love as thou wilt. She didn't quite understand that notion. It was certainly a new one to her. her brow wrinkled for a few moments as she absorbed the words in to her mind and let them settle. It was a nice phrase.
"I think, I think I would enjoy that." she whispers her voice still rather grating though she had certainly loosened up a little and her lips turned in to a weak but genuine smile. "I will come with you."

Elua purred and moved to nuzzle the other...though if the other showed a dislike for it, Elua would pull away. Didn't want to make the beautiful mountain feel uneasy.
"I'm Elua." It was a name she wore with joy...her 'mother' Leru had named her for the central 'god' of her religion...a 'god' that embodied love in it's purest form. "And what name does the beautiful mountain have?"

She accepted the nuzzle happily, her puurr rough another thing unused because of her time alone. "Zambarau, my name is Zambarau." she whispers tilting her head in a gentle bow.
"Your family, they won't mind if I come will they?" She coughs, a slight awkward feeling washing over her. What if she wasn't welcome in this group with all it's love?

Elua's purring grew and she chuckled. "They won't mind, Zambarau. I doubt you'll try and hurt anyone...that's really the only thing that will make them not like someone." Why would they not like the beautiful cheetah before her?
Certainly, Zambarau was a little awkward...but that could be fixed with time around others.

Zambarau smiled and gave a light, cheery nod. She still felt a little afraid of joining these others but it was far better than being alone for the rest of forever.
"Okay, then lead the way." She purrs, her own purr still rough from miss use but still a fairly happy sound.

Elua turned in the direction of where the group was. "The others are this way." With that, she started to trot, making sure Zambarau wasn't too far behind. Her little group really was growing. And who knew...
Maybe someday, they would all find a place where they belonged...a land to call their own.
