The scream coming from the leopardess' mouth could probably be heard for miles around. Certainly it would alert anyone around to her presence at least. And some might think that something truly serious had occurred. If only they knew Bweka. The orange leopard was prone to tantrums. A lot of tantrums. And today seemed to be one of those days. For Bweka, something always seemed to go wrong, be it the tiniest thing or the biggest, she always seemed to have something gone bad for her. Because of this, she was nearly always in a state of anger. Why was it her that got all the bad luck?! It was not fair.
This afternoon, the leopardess had come across a nice waterhole, only to discover that there was a family of meerkats also there. How DARE they!? Didn't they know she wanted to be alone? They must have planned to come here on purpose, she thought.
Not wanting to share the waterhole with another, the leopard screamed quite loudly, causing one of the meerkat pups to jump at least 3 feet in the air in fright, and turned and left.
She hoped the day would get better.

A scream filled the air close to where Natintrapa was. At first, it frightened her and brought back pass memories. Though, it passed soon as she realized it was a female's scream. Natintrapa instantly thought that perhaps something was wrong. Something serious. Though, Trapa wasn't really fit for fighting anyone, two against one was better than one against one. Right? It was the first thing that popped to her mind, that the female was being attacked. From past experiences, she knew she had to get there fast.
She had turned a different direction from where she was hunting. The scream would have scared off whatever she was hunting anyways. She started to sprint towards the scream. She quickly stopped when she noticed the leopard, though didn't see anything else, at least not what she expected to see. "W-what's wrong! "She asked panting and trying to catch her breath. Her eyes were out for looking for someone trying to hurt the leopard. But no one was there...
Natintrapa was confused... She'd never heard something like that from someone just for no reason. Then again, she hadn't ever ran into a leopard before. "Are you okay? " She asked.

Bweka started talking without looking at who had asked, not really caring, only wanting to vent. "Ugh. So, I went to a waterhole, and there were some meerkats there?! Can you believe it?!!! I can't believe someone else would be at a watering hole when I want to be. I bet they did it on purpose, nasty little things, I should have eaten them up when I had the chance." The leopardess scowled. Why couldn't everything just go the way she wanted.
"Oh." She said, turning to face her acquaintance and realizing it was a lion. The last time she'd met a lion, he had not wanted to give up his comfortable lounging spot for her. How rude. They're probably all the same, she thought to herself. Lazy, selfish, good for nothing cats.
"I'm okay." She flicked her tail in annoyance and hoped the lioness would not be too much of a bother.

Confused with the situation more, Natintrapa just gazed at the other. She was screaming because.... because of that? Well, that seemed a little too silly for Natintrapa. Of course, Natintrapa had been through a lot as she grew up, and she didn't even think about things like that. She was always happy to share with someone. She was amazed how this leopard was. Where they all like that? "It's a big watering hole, I'm sure it isn't that much of a problem to share?" She asked.
Of course, that probably wasn't the best thing to say. Though, she couldn't really agree with how the leopard was acting. Not at all. She wanted to frown, but she didn't. She just gazed at the other, curious of what exactly went on in her head. What exactly she'd with what she had said. All Natintrapa could thing was that this leopard was spoiled and a bit selfish. Though, she wasn't the type to really judge on that. Perhaps she was just having a bad day and that was just a rant that wasn't meant to really be put towards the family of Meerkats.

At the others reply Bweka signed. She didn't understand. No one seemed to understand. Why couldn't they, didn't they get it? Her golden eyes flicked up to glare for a second at the brown lioness before softening to a normal look. Bweka liked glaring.
"I shouldn't have to share!" She stated. It only seemed fair that one that had suffered all she had (not much really, but that's not what Bweka thought) should have to right to something she wanted. What a twisted mind the leopardess seemed to have. She didn't want to have to explain to the lioness why she felt this way. After all, when she did, no one seemed to appreciate it anyway.
The leopardess sat down. If one looked hard enough, they might pick up that she was in fact, sulking.

Shouldn't have to share? The more Natintrapa stood here, the more she realized how little she experienced. She'd never seen someone so selfish before. She felt sorry for that. "Why?" She asked curious. She wanted to know why exactly she thought she needed it to herself. It wasn't hers, it wasn't in a pride land. It was everyone's water hole. It confused her.
Natintrapa found herself interested in the leopard. Everything about her seemed strange. Maybe there was some type of reason why she thought the way she did. And that's what Natintrapa wanted to know. To understand how someone like the leopard would think something like that. And maybe to help them see in a different light. Of course, that was a bit far fetched. You couldn't really change the way someone was just like that. Especially if they had no will in doing so.

"Because." she replied sharply. Why? What did she mean why? thought the leopardess angrily. Unfortunately, Bweka believed others should just be able to understand her thoughts and wants, without her actually telling them anything. So when she had thought to herself she wanted to be alone at a watering hole, the meerkats should have just know and left. But the didn't. She scowled.
Bweka shot a glare at the Lioness. She was already tiring of this conversation, especially since the lioness didn't seem to get what she wanted either. How frustrating! Bweka contorted her face in disgust. It seemed everyone in the savannah was out to make her life miserable.

She raised a brow. She was only trying to help, even though she was making it worse. She didn't want to just come out and say it, but it seemed like the leopard is giving her no choice. She wasn't normally one to be rude about something, but she was growing frustrated with the leopard. She didn't want to speak, didn't want to add on to it.
"You're being quite selfish." She finally said. She felt bad for saying it, but it had to be done. "Expecting other creatures to leave a watering hole because you think you don't need to share." That's what she got out of it all anyways.

Selfish? As far as Bweka could tell, those meerkats were the ones being selfish. How dare they not move! Her golden eyes glared at the brown lioness at her accusation. She obviously didn't understand. Bweka didn't expect a simple lion's mind to understand her thoughts anyway, and this interaction just confirmed what she'd suspected from her previous lion encounter. That they were really frustrating animals.
"If all you're going to do is insult me, when I'm the one whose been wronged. I think you should leave." She spat, an eyebrow raised and her glare still going. Bweka sure wasn't going to move to another place. She never did after a fight or an arguement, because she was never in the wrong, and the leopardess always felt it was the wrong one who she go away, which the brown lioness was. Obviously.

She sighed. Obviously there was no getting through to this leopard. She really didn't want to be the one to say it, but she had to. Someone had to say it, if they hadn't already. Maybe if enough creatures told her this, maybe she'd eventually realize that her ways weren't right. No matter, it was just another problem that would bug her tonight.
"I'm not trying to insult you." She started. "But you must see it, or you'll end up running into the wrong creature that will hurt you for it." She told her. It was the only warning she could give. Hopefully it'd make the leopard realize just a little bit on what she was saying. She could only hope. But she'd leave it at that. She didn't want to push more on the other. She had already upset her enough.
"But if you wish me to leave, I will." She said with a shrug. There wasn't much more to do. "And leave you with only that waring, and hope that you'll think things over." Though she doubted she would at the moment. Maybe in the future this little encounter would come back at her. She could only hope, for the leopard's sake.

There definitely was no getting through to the leopardess. She was so set in her ways that practically any attempts to change her actions were futile.
"I can handle myself." She spoke fiercely, flicking a claw in and out for good measure. Bweka glared at the brown lioness. She certainly didn't need advice from her. Her tail swished back and forth in annoyance. This lion was really getting on her nerves. Who was she to be all high and mighty?
"Please. go." She sneered. Bweka didn't want anything more to do with the lioness, so she was elated when she suggested she leave. Hopefully she did.

She nodded her head. Not wanting to farther an argument that was useless. It wasn't what Natintrapa was trying to do. No, she was trying to help in some way, but was failing. "Well then, I bid you fair well." She told her with a small bow and moved away from her. She paused for a moment, "I hope you don't run into any trouble." She spoke words of truth before continuing on.
She would hate for the leopard to have anything bad happen to. She was probably very nice when she wanted to be. Then again, Natintrapa could be wrong about that too. But that wasn't her business anymore. Even though, she'll probably be thinking about it for the rest of the night.
Perhaps one day they'd meet again, and the leopardess would change a bit. She could only hope. At least, that they run into each other again, so she'd know the leopardess was still alive.
