Split Personality umo padded slowly, quietly back to where he kne his love was. To where his child was. If he had a child. Or children. He did not know really. He could not know. His crimson eyes were dulled over, since he had been sleeping alot. Being away from his mate, his Kika, his whispering jewel. He could not stand it anymore, he had to intrude. He had to see Kika. He could not take this. His stress levels were high, his temper was ravaging lately. He was not going to be able to live much longer away from his only care in the world. On the little island, where the great tree rose and thw whole swamp pride resided, Kikawaida sat with her front paws crossed. Her eyes were closed. it was a nice day to say the least. It hadn't been very long since she had returned to the pride bringing with her, their only child. She had dubbed the little cub Kinamasi, literally meaning marsh, she was suited to the swamps to say the least. The khaki coloured female yawned widely as she shifted slightly noticing a familiar sillouette on the horizon she smiled. he was back.The little female cub was busy feeding from ehr motherm, far too busy to notice a new unusual lion approaching, though she squeeked unhappily when her motehr moved dislodging her from her feeding "Meep!" she squeeked wriggling to once again get her place and feed. Why wasn't her mommy staying still? It was feeding time!

Umo padded until he thought his paws would bleed and his torment would end in a sad heap, when he lifted his head. Kikawaida, he could see her; he was almost there. Something in his heart told him to turn back and to leave, to obey her prides traditions. He quickened, his crimson eyes wide in happiness. "Kika! Kika!" He shouted, his voice slightly scratchy from not speaking. He ran through the water, not-heeding his small dislike for water. He did not even take heed to the small cub that had been feeding, not until he had held his love.
He stepped up beside her, wrapping his neck around hers; in a lion hug. "Kikawaida. I have missed you." He said, his monotone voice familiar. He closed his eyes, his tongue caressing her cheeks. "I was about to give up."

Kika smiled softly "We only returned a few days ago" she whispers her voice a gentle lilting tone "I was wonderign when you would return" she smiles happily, lifting her head to clean her mates cheek "It seems like a life time since I have seen you" a gentle sigh escapes the khaki lioness as she gazes up at her mate with those delecate pink eyes.
"Myameep!" came a little protest as her mother moved again the little cublett struggling to her foot paws had t limp back to her mothers side, though she suddenly realised there was somone really big there. He wasn't one of the really bigs taht lived witht he pride. Turning her gaze to her mother she clambered over her and hid behind her back peering over the lionesses shoulders at the big dark male.
Kika laughs softly looking up at her handsome red eyed boy. her daughter had gained his eye colour, she was a constant rememinder of him "I think your daughter is a little shy" she whispers her dusty pink eyes glimmering.

Umo Smiled in such a charming way, he must have missed her badly. His eyes were now clear and shining, like the day he first met her. He sighed as well, sitting down. "It almost has been a life time Kika." He said.
He heard a dellicate speaking from beside them and his head turned to gaze down at his cub, his daughter. he looked from Kika to the cub, almost confused. "Kikawaida. We had a daughter?" he asked, looking at the little cub as she peered from behind her mother.
He lay down slowly, as to not seem so big. His eyes became slits, as his smile was so big. "Hello there." he said softly.

Kikawaida smiled and nodded gently "Yes Umo, this is Kinamasi, she's your daughter" Turning her soft eyes she looked down at the little female and nudged her bottom gently "This is your father Kinamasi" she puurrs her voice ever gentle and kind.
Kinamasi looked at the big Lion and had backed away a little as he came close to her, though her mother nudged her forwards and she looked wide eyed at the big hairy male. Limping forwards, it was obvious she had somethign wrong with her left fopreleg though she seemed to move fairly wel upon it "Hulo" she squeeks looking up ever so wide eyed at the big male, even lying down he was a goliath to her.

Umo looked up at Kikawaida, an amazed look on his face. Their daughter. His Kinamasi. He snaked a paw foreward slowly, as to not frighten her, and batted lightly at her tail.
"Hello Kinamasi, I am your father; umo." He said, a smil ewide on his face, looking up to Kika. he really didn't think anything of the limp. He flicked his tail slowly. "He is amazingly beautiful, like you Kika"

The pink eyed lioness smiled down at her burly mate and puurred licking his ears. She had missed him and while she knew it had had to be done, time with only her daughter had made her long for her male. Smiling gentlyshe curled closer to Umo looking at her daughter with a gentle laughter in her thoat. "She is yours too silly, she has your eyes"
Kinamasi was rather bewildered by all the talk of her eyes, her mother, when they had returned to the pride, had spoken of her father a burly male whom cared deeply for them both and would return soon. He certainly had taken her breath away. She had never imagined that her father owuld be this big and fluffy. She almost jumped out of her skin when the huge paw reached out and touched her tail, but she soon broke in to a giggle and fell to gnawing the huge dark foot.

Umo smiled warmly, enjoying Kikawaidas company. The company he had grown to miss so badly. He hadn't even ent back to his pride this entire time. He never was far away. "Ah but she is more like you Kika, I hope at least. She can not be too much like me, now can she. She is a girl after all. I was secretly hoping." He said, blinking his crimson eyes, while his attention turned to his foot. She was so cute. He could barely take the cuteness. How could such a beautiful child come from him? "You are certainly your mothers child, little one. Surely a stunning sight."

Kika smiled gently. Umo was such a sweet heart, his voice may be monotone but his heart certainly was not. hwe was a real romantic. Leaning against the big male she grooms his shoulder and mane "Maybe so but ehr eyes let me think of you when you wer enot here" she whispers looking down at the bundle of fluff cub.
Kinamasi growled in a cute cubby manner and nibbled her fathers toes for a minute before hobbling over to her mother and curling back in to her stomach. She hadn't finished her meal yet, she would play more when she was done.

Umo smiled, his mate was so good to him. He blinked, watching their little marsh child... now he a whispering jewel and a marsh jewel. He smiled as this thought came to his mind. "Well then, she must be mine; eh?" Hee said. Eh? When did he start saying eh? An image of Asi, his pride leader came to mind and he felt a little guilty. He had not been to his pride in a while. Oops.
"She is srtrong... but why does she limp?" he asked, looking down attheir child with a concerned look. "... she looks hearlthy other wise." He added.

Kikawaida had silently hoped that her mate would not ask about the limp of their only child, flattening ehr ears she buryies her bose in the big males mane "It was all my fault" she whispers "I angered the spirits and they have cursed our daughter for it" she shakeds her head, this should have been a happy reunion but their daughters problem was all to apparent when she moved. Kika of course knew very little of giving birth, she simply assumed the spirits were mad at her so gave their daughter a painful limp. The simplicity of course was simply that she was a big cub whom was born breached.
Kinamasi finally finished feeding and looked up at ehr parents with wide deep red eyes. She gave a meep and stumbled forwards tripping in to her fathers forelegs before sitting up and looking up at him with a very curious eye. So this was ehr father? She had seen other males in the pride of course but this one was related to her instead. Giggling she raised her game leg and patted at him with it, it was easier to balance on herr sterdy foreleg "play" she mews wriggling her tiny tufted tail.

Umo frowned when Kikawaida grew distressed. He looked down at his daughter, perfectly healthy. Stunningly beautiful and lovely. He blinked. "Oh, Kika. The spirits... why should they be angry with you. You gave life to an amazing child. She is healthy and beautiful; whether she walks funny or not. Do not think the spirits would be so cruel... you are not at fault dear!" He said, wrapping a paw around her shoulder.
He looked down to his daughter, his Kinamasi. "Of course darling." He said, laying down and rolling onto his back, so his belly was open for tackling. He laughed, his deep gruff monotone voice so happy to have a child. So beautiful. He reached out with a paw to his child, a smile on his maw.

Kikawaida looked to her mate saddly. She still considered it her fault that their cub had a limp but, umo had plastered over the sore ever so slightly. "She is very beautiful indeed" she whispers laying down with her chin resting on his shoulder "perhaps next time we will have more" she puurrs, she still found it quite odd that they had only had one child, but then not all females were blessed with as many cubs as the queen of the swamps. She was happy looking after their only child and htey could spoil her as much as she liked.
Kinamasi giggled and dive at her fathers belly pulling at the thick fluffy fur there with her tiny milky teeth. "Gurrurr" she mumbles letting go before she jumpped and landed over her fathers stomach her legs danglign uselessly as she tried to disslodge herself from the awquard possition "mew!" she squeeked searching for help from her parents.

Umo nuzzled Kikawaida; his nose sniffing her sweet fur. "She is so beautiful. She will be a wonderful mate for some lucky lion someday." He said, looking over at Kika before grumbling his throat, lifting Kinamasi up off his chest with his front paws. "She sure is a strong girl! I wonder where she gets that from, eh?" He said with a laugh, lowering her down to lick her nose delicatly and setting her on his chest. He then rolled slowly, so she would topple off saftly, so he could talk to Kika.
"Why would the spirits be angry with you?" He asked.

Kinamasi giggled happily while her father played with her, her tiny front paws mingling in his big flock of mane. Of course she didn't understand any of the talk, she was just happy to meet such a big fluffy father and be able to play with him. She rolls off him onl to come boinding back catching one of his ears in her teeth.
Kika smiled lightly "She is our only cub umo, she doesn't have to share" she chuckles lightly. She knew full well her cub was big and striong because she didn't have any sibling rivalry.
Her ears flattened at the question though snd she nizzled her mates mane "I left Umo, I should never have left i upset the spirits doing so"
