It had been some time since Kimya ran into that little pridelander female, and not quite so long since the strange red lioness had been there. Little Kimya had once again found herself drawn out into the wonders of the world-- particularly that vast blue stretch of sky that reminded her so much of a calmer version of Kinja's eyes.
The grasses parted like the sea as she explored, following the scent of water- directly towards the watering hole. She had little intrest for much else till she reached her destination.
She'd left her mother and brothers sleeping in the den as far as she knew, finding that she wasn't loud enough or strong enough-- or perhaps she was just too shy to wake up any of them up. It seemed to be of little consequence now. She was just fine out here by herself, even if company would've been nice.

Even if Kamal's intentions had ever been less than favorable Kimya was not aware. She held a naive adoration for her brothers and mom, and in her little blue eyes they could do no wrong. At this age, and given their lifestyle, family truely was everything. She considered herself lucky to believe this.
So, when Kamal called, Kimya stopped. She looked back over a spotted shoulder to see her brother approach, and she was delighted! It showed just in the silent, but warm and happy smile that came across her maw despite Kamal's less plesant expression.
She didn't usually say much to start with but Kimya had become just a bit more verbally withdrawn since running into those two strangers before. She just seemed to be a little more afraid to speak.
None the less, Kimya purred and turned enough to brush her head against her big brother's shoulder, just pulling back after the good morning.
"I wanted to see the watering hole, do you want to come with me?" She smiled simply.

Kamal allowed his sister to rub up against him with a soft purr, although he made a good show of looking terribly pained by it. When she was finished he shook his head and slightly fumbled his mouth, "Yea, yea..." He disclaimed in an arrogant child's manner, but he did pull up alongside her in implication that he would go with her.
"The watering hole? I don't think there's anything good about that but I'll go if yous wants. Can't have you wandering around all unprotected like." He mumbled, and puffed his whiskers out. "Hakan told me about that little girlie, and I don't like none of that." He remarked and shook his head. "What do you want to do at the watering hole, 'sides drinkin?"

Kimya watched Kamal with undivided attention. See? This was part of the reason she adored her family so much. It made her happy to hear that he cared and wanted to protect her, but did that mean--?
Oh...
The sounds of few prey-animals scattering reached them faintly as the watering hole drew nearer. Kimya'Ukilia's ears settled to rest against her skull slowly, whiskers and tail drooping a bit with her posture. He heard about that? Oh man, and mum had been so upset when she found out too!
The little feline found her voice again though it was much softer this time. She really wished she was a bit more brave. "Dunno, hang about?"

Kamal's paw distracted her thoughts as he'd hoped it would. And meanwhile, that explained the scratches Hakan had that day, or, at least Kimya thought it did. So that lioness had gotten the better of their brother too?? The idea made Kimya's eyes widen in disbelief. Hakan was the strongest of the three of em', if even he came away scratched up like that...
And then he was off and talking about something else again "Wow! You'll teach me how to do it too, right Kamal?"
