 The heat of the summer always brought along summer storms, he thought as he laid over a thick branch watching the dark clouds roll in, the cool from the rain would be welcome. Specially from him and his heat attracting coat, the golden fur at the end of his tail flicked boredly as he took a deep breath and looked over the land.
Golden eyes taking it all in, as he chuckled at the sight of prey families looking for shetler as thunder rumbled in the distance, he on the other hand would enjoy the storm and all its brutality. Whilist he was a kind soul, he loved the chaotic amazing of a storm, he rolled his shoulders lightly. That last tumble out of a tree had left a pretty good ache in his shoulders, but he hadn't learned his lesson as here he was again. Up a tree.
As lighting flashed out, he groaned. And once the storm was there, he'd have to get out of his tree, now he wasnt happy about the storm.

((HA! the Rp i just started with someone else has a storm a brewing)) 
Yaretzi made her way through the trees an unamused expression on her face, it was going to rain, and although she liked the rain, it was also shooting out lightning and roaring thunder. She watched the littler animals run from her... or maybe even from the storm and run for cover. Whatever the reason, she didn't really care, the air was thick with different scents and one in particular had caught her attention, it was the scent of a predator, and it was that scent that gave her the unamused expression. It really was a strong scent in here, she wondered if the predator lived here? It bothered her slightly becuase she couldn't smell any others, was this a rogue? She sighed, not liking having to deal with rogues too much, at least lions in a pride were predictable.
She continued through the trees, keeping to the underbrush, trying to keep herself hidden from any eyes that she herself couldn't see. Her whole body tense as she moved through the area, she was ready for anything.

It wasn't hard to spot her from his perch, then again with that coat she stood out as much as he did. He chuckled as he lifted his head from the branch, he continued to watch her, he could tell she sensed him.
But with that look on her face, he wasnt sure if the creatures were fleeing from the upcoming storm, or from her. He did his best to stiffle a laugh, as he now stood up on the branch, thankful it hadnt broken under his weight, he continued to watch her, tail flicking behind him.
(( Lol. ))

If Yaretzi had been in a less populated area, she probably would have been able to pick him out with no trouble at all. She herself loved to lounge around in trees, but most cats she'd ever run into had always had their feet firmly planted on the ground. She didn't look up, and in a few more steps she would walk right underneath him.
Unforuntelt, with one step she managed to step on the tail of a rather brave little mouse that bit her paw. She was used to pain, but it alway seems that the smaller the injury, the more it hurts. The fact that it had taken her completely by surprise probably didn't help much either.
She let out a cat like yowl and batted the mouse into the tree with an audible 'thud' She glowered at it as it slid down the tree, stunned but not dead, and scampered off. She looked down at her own paw for a moment, cursing silently in her head. The skin was broken, barely, but it still stung. "Damn..." She let out, before she began to lick at it and try to clean it out.

He continued to watch her, it wasnt often a lone lioness came by these parts and well, a bit of company was good from time to time. But he wasnt sure if she was part of a hunting party or not, and he'd seen lions take down other lions before, and well he didnt want to be apart of that fun.
He almost snorted when the brave mouse bit her.
He jumped down with a large thud, he shook his head with a tsk. "You should be more careful where you step.." He said in a friendly manner, "The smallest creatures can have a most nasty bite." He said as he looked to her.

Yaretzi looked up in surprise, She should have seen him, should have known. He was a really rather large male, and very... dark... and.... bright. She took a surprised step backwards, her eyes on him at all times. They narrowed slightly, and she couldn't help but raise one of her eyebrows at him. He was the exact same coloring as her, and if he hadn't had golden eyes, she would have almost sworn that they were related.
Finally, after three cautious steps, she stopped, still in a cautious stance, ready to bolt if need be. "Small creatures might have a nasty bite, but larger ones have a maiming one." She hadn't meant it in a threatening way, more of an observation. She didn't know this male, and she didn't know how he would possibly act towards her.

He chuckled, "That is a true statement. " He watched as she kept herself a safe distance from him, if those green eyes were a tad lighter, she could pass as his sister. But none of them looked like him, he hadnt been blessed with the family color of green, somethings still got to him.
He moved towards her, pushing the safety lines. "Are you going to maime me?" He asked with a slow grin, nothing about his stance gave off he was going to hurt her. No, his stance was relaxed and at ease; friendly.
"I'm Xanthus Rami, but you can call me simply Xanthus.." He bowed his head in greeting, if she were going to attack him, he figured he could fend her off.
............It would hurt, but he could do it.

Yaretzi continued to take cautious steps back as he stepped forward, lowering herself, feeling her fur rise on the back of her neck, until she backed into a tree. She looked nervous for a moment. She wasn't sure what he meant by that. 'True'? did that mean he was a fighter?
She watched him grin, but it didn't help to make her any less nervous, not in the slightest. She wasn't sure how to answer that question, she was generally a non-trusting person around males, and for good reasons. The ones that seemed young she knew weren't a threat, but him, he acted his age, he was almost hard for her to read.
But when Yaretzi watched him bow his head, she pulled her head back, as if she was trying to figure out what he was. Like a child that has been presented with some foreign object for dinner. "No..." she said cautiously. "Not if you don't plan to maime me." She looked at him warily, not sure what to do in this situation. "I'm Yaretzi. It's um.... nice to meet you Xanthus."

He chuckled and shook his head, "I don't plan on hurting you at all. Even if you attacked me, I'd do my best just to fend you off without harming you." He said with a simple shrug.
Xanthus wasn't weak, he wasn't a coward he just didn't waste the engery hurting someone if the situation didn't really call for it.
"Plus, you've got all this fur, and it'd get all in my mouth, and I'd be trying to get it off the little groves on my tongue for days...and really it's just work it." He said with a playful grin.

She didn't really trust the male before her, he was too light hearted, too easy going... She wasn't sure how to act around him, Yaretzi had never heard someone tell her that they wouldn't hurt her. How was she supposed to believe him? Not even she would try and not fight, she'd go straight for her opponents throat the first chance she got. Friend or not.
"Well that's a very stupid way to live." She commented, still in a stance to strike or run if he decided he really didn't want to stick with what he'd just said. "No one, is that generous. And honestly, I think it's a bull faced lie, and I don't appreciate that." She glared at him angrily. Honestly, she was slightly angry at him, but not really AT HIM. She was suddenly angry that she'd never met someone before that had ever had that sort of mind frame. She'd always been taught kill or be killed. She didn't like the fact that here was this male, who didn't live that way. Why was he so different from her?
She didn't smile when he joked with her, she just simply looked away. Why couldn't she have turned out to be like that?

He lowered himself to his belly, stretching his paws out infront of him. Showing he was indeed not going to hurt her, what could he do in his position, gnaw on her paws?
He shook his head, "Now, you shouldnt ever belittles anothers way of life just because its so different from your own. It only makes you look close minded and foolish." He lifted a paw, and flexed his claws for a moment.
"And you dont look like someone who is either of those things." He said looking up at her as he put his paw down.

She didn't calm down, she didn't sit down, she didn't relax when he laid down, she continued to stand, and stare at him, he was so... strange. Why was he so nice? What he said was true and she let out a huff of a breath, not wanting to acknowledge that he had a valid point.
"I... I..." She looked away from him now, not sure how to react, her brow knitting together, not sure what to say. "I suppose..."
She looked back at him, suddenly, all the years and wear and tear apparent on her frame. "But if you've lived the life I've lived, you'd understand it better." She sighed, hanging her head for some reason. She bit her tongue, to stop the tears that suddenly threatened at the edges of her vision.
Her demon, for once in there life, was surprisingly silent. As if she too felt some remorse. It was interesting, considering her demon was known for her hatred.

He sat up a bit now, watching her closely. He wasn't sure how to comfort her, without the threat of a good claw to the face, he was older than her by far many more moons and suns.
"Ah, but just because youve been forced to walk one way of life, does not give you just cause to put anothers life down." He said gently, he wasnt trying to scold her, moreso open her eyes to the other walks of life.
"But, maybe if you told me of your life, of yourself I might be able to understand better."

Yaretzi stared at him for a moment, a look of part outrage and part shock on her face. She felt a mixture of things in that moment. How was she supposed to react to something like that? He'd just asked her to tell her about her life. He barely knew her and he was trying to comfort her. RIDICULOUS! She didn't beleive that it was his only motive. She backed away from him, going the way she'd come, in a moment she would bolt...
And that was when lightning struck, and the earth opened up to let out what seemed to them a torrential down pour. that's when she began to run, hoping to the gods that the wet sand would slow him down, that she would be able to put as much distance between him and her as possible. She didn't like the way he looked at her, with such a kindness in his eyes, as if he really wouldn't ever hurt. She knew it was a lie. Males weren't nice...
and she had the scars to prove it.

The explosions of lighting only made his golden orbs seem to glow as he watched her run, for what seemed to be her life.
He rose to his paws, and simply watched her run away, ears drawn back. He looked away, it brought back memories of someone else running from him, his eyes closed.
He missed her. But she didnt want him either, and with that thought, he opened his eyes and watched the lioness run away.
Thunder rolled over head, and he simply cast a gaze upwards, should he chase her? Force her to see, or let her run away and be blind from the world forever?
