Pains in her stomach had started to grow heavier and Na'ilah knew, from past experience, that the cubs were ready to come out. She picked herself up from beside their tree and went back towards the den, others didn't need to see this event. Lime green eyes winced slightly in the pain before she softly mewed at the den's enterance, hoping she'd hear her mate's reply.
"Mika'il? Are you here?" She could faintly smell his scent before she received no answer. Sighing softly, she gazed back at the figure of her one son before calling to him, "Siltim!!" As she caught his attention, "Go and find your father. It's time!" And with that, she went into the den and rested in the back as more pain started to come with the birthing process.
Ears flicked back as Siltim saw his mother leave to head towards the den. Her scent smelled different, he noted silently but curiously. Just as he was about to get up and leave, his mother called out for him to go and find his father. Ready? The cubs were coming so soon! He nodded his head in reply, "Yes mom." He turned and dashed off through the Pridelands looking for his brightly colored father, hoping that he'd find him soon before all the cubs were born. This was a new experience for him, getting the chance to be there when his younger siblings are born. He's never had something this huge happen before in his life and so, it will be a changing experience for him as well as the rest of his family members...the ones that are still here, however.

Mika'il was off looking for a good meal for his mate. He had noticed that she was eating much lately and that required him to go hunting more for her, but he didn't mind. In fact, it made him feel proud that he was helping her out. He smiled slowly at the idea of more cubs running around, it was nice when his first litter was just born...before they all wandered off and left, or at least most of them did, anyway.
He had just spotted a nice group of gazelles before his son's voice drifted over to his direction. Cubs? Now?! He turned back towards his son, eager and excited at the news, "Are you sure, Siltim? Did she say it was time?"

Head tilted in confirmation of his father's question. Siltim was quite sure that this time his mother was actually having the cubs. "She looked like she was in pain and headed back towards the den, telling me I needed to come and get you. I can only imagine that she is close to giving birth or have already started to do so, Dad." Beckoning his father to follow him, he raced back towards the den though slowly down as they got closer. He had no interest in actually witnessing the birth so he let his father go before him while standing outside to guard the den. "I'll be out here Dad, if you or Mom need anything."

Mika'il was excited! Their newest litter was about to be born. He followed his son back to their den as quickly as he could. He passed his son and slowly went into the den, calling quietly to his mate. "Na'ilah?" He hoped he wasn't too late. "Are you alright?"

A sharp pain washed over the lioness as she closed her eyes, waiting for it to pass. Hopefully her son was close with her mate, Na'ilah needed him here with her.
No sooner had she thought that did his soft voice drift through their den to her. A small, but painful smile appeared as another contraction happened. "I am here, Mika..." Her voice died as their first cub was brought into the world. She tried to raise her head slightly and caught a glimpse of green and gold. A little male.

"A little male..." She whispered, waiting for the next cub to come.

Mika'il went to his mate and reached down to nuzzle her neck affectionately. He purred softly for her and let her do her thing. He was there for her if something should arise. The first cub, a male made him smile. "A little boy, Na'ilah."

The pain was long this time around, much stronger than the first time. Na'ilah barely heard her mate, but she could smell him and that comforted her to some extent. She just wanted to be done and over with the birth, though she didn't even know how many cubs she was having or how long the birth would last for.
Another contraction brought another cub into the world. A little pale green male with tiger stripes.

There was a brief pause after his arrival before another contraction brought about another little life. A black and purple female. A color that neither parents had on their coats.

After those two cubs were born, there was a laspe in the contractions as Na'ilah could feel her toes once more. She wanted to see the new cubs and raised her head to gaze at two little cubs. "A male and female. Such unusual colors!"

Mika'il watched in anticipation as two new cubs were born, one right after the other. His eyes widen, they were all so beautiful! "Look at the little female...such an unusual color, but the male looks like you, Na'ilah." His tail wagged from side to side, waiting with Na'ilah for the rest of the cubs to appear.

Her tongue lolled off each of the cubs, cleaning each of them. Getting to know their scents, Na'ilah couldn't be anymore happier. Her head nodded slightly, "You're right. They are all so precious, Mika'il." It was a shame that her whole family couldn't be here to witness the new cubs, but she was just as happy that Siltim and Ma'isah were here.
Resting her head back down on the ground, she exhaled slowly before another contraction came. A little black male.

Mika'il took a few steps closer to the cubs and helped Na'ilah clean them. He was so proud of Na'ilah, and proud of the newest additions to his family. He purred and looked to his mate, "We'll need to think of names for all of them."

Nodding slowly, that was true. They would need to find names for the new little ones. Na'ilah looked at her mate with a large smile. Hopefully it wouldn't be much longer now, she didn't think she could last the pain anymore.
Wincing at another contraction, a little female was brought into the world. Dark green and light green.

Mika'il was helping clean the little ones before his mate went back into labor with another cub. How many cubs just were they having?! His eyes were wide as another little female was born. Green just like her mother, he smiled.

This was the last cub, Na'ilah thought as she felt the pains diminish slightly. The cubs were all so wonderful and she could only imagine what they'd grow up like. Hopefully that would include plenty of fun and games with all her children. Just as she was about to lick the newest addition to her family, another contraction came. "How many cubs am I having?!" She cried.
Two little cubs were born, one right after the other. A little yellow male and a little yellow female. Twins!

]
The pain had reclined, the birth was done as Na'ilah rested for a bit before going about cleaning the cubs again. It was then that she noticed the latest additions. "Twins?! Mika'il! We have twins!" What a surprise that was!
((Feel free to start rping your cub, I just wanted the birth done and out of the way. ^^))

One by one, the warm things like her that had been there next to her for the entire time she was in this comfortable place disappeared. As each left, the place got more and more uncomfortable. Well, no sense staying here if everything was changing around her. Anyway, she didn't seem to have a choice in the matter as the green girl tumbled into the world.
This place was so wierd. But at least she was next to the warm things like her, getting a tasty snack from what appeared to be an even bigger warm thing. She couldn't complain about the way things were turning out so far.

The oldest and the first stumbled a bit on his own, an inch or two before on his belly again. He continued on until he bumped into something that was soft and yet hard at the same time. He gave a small cry, oh? What was that noise? Did he make it? He gave another. It was he who was giving it right?
Falling down again he hit something that seemed to give a certain aroma. Carefully latching to it something soft and warm filled his maw. It was tasty to say the least. It was not long after before he went off again and this time into another soft-hard thing. With another cry, it put its paws around it and cried out again. However, this cry was not like before it was sort of an undeveloped yawn. With that done, it fell onto it's back and curled up a bit. It had fallen asleep.
