((MM! Want! xd *loves red pandas*. I'm going to make it dawn now.))
Sleep caught up to the tigress quickly and pulled her down into a dreamless rest.
Morning came too soon. It seemed only minutes ago she had put her head down, and now, as she opened her eyes dawn's light had already bathed the misty grasslands in a pale pink. She shut her eyes again quickly, not having any drive to face the day.

Cirro had fallen asleep where he lay outside the den. But as dawn filtered forward, the sun warming his mottled coat after the night of rain, Cirro felt stirring around him as the Pride woke. He peeled his eyes open, looking around without moving his muzzle from his forepaws, and saw Brindle nearby. Silently, Cirrocumo rose to his paws, careful not to disturb any of the sleeping cats, and picked his way to the side, so he could stretch luxuriously without waking any.

Calyn barely slept, not an unusual occurance after they were killed. She watched Brindle wake up and close her eyes again. The panther cross-breed silently got up, waiting a moment to make sure she hadn't sturred before she quietly headed to them again, as she had every other morning. She didn't notice Cirro, more focused on avoiding sleeping cats and staying silent.
Tami woke up at dawn, light filtering into the den. She yawned, stopping from getting up when she realized all the weights were sleeping cubs, not rocks that had been another of Zephre's jokes, pranks rather.

Brindle opened one eye at the retreating back of her second. Slowly she rose and discretely followed. Making sure to stay as far as she could while still keeping the panther in sight.
Calyn. You're not invincible. She thought as she yawned, trying to shrug off her sleep. And assassin's can rise early too.
Zephre still lay just outside the den mouth, sleeping as deeply as a newborn cub. If the lion enjoyed one thing, it was his sleep. When he slept, he dreamed, and in his dreams he could see.

Mira lazily opened her eyes. She had spent the night off in the forest away from the pride. She streched as the sun started to warm her fur. "Wonderfull morning." She knew nothing of the assassination attempt. Shakeing her fur she headed down the tree face first. Nearly five feet off the ground she jumped and landed gracefully, then made her way noiselessly back to the den.

Calyn sighed as the wind flew towards her, bringing Brindle's scent with it. "Just come with me please, instead of following." she said, somewhat dejectedly. "Sorry, just..." she trailed off, shrugging. How could she say that she refused to not visit the grave, as she had every other morning. She just, had to...

Konya woke up when sunlight reached her in the den. She yawned and did her best to stretch with out waking the sleeping cubs around her. She layed her paws between her head, waiting for the cubs to wake up.

Arching his back, before leaning forward and pressing his chest to the ground spewed with dawn dew, Cirro watched first Calyn, then Brindle, get up and slip off into the misty morning. He didn't move, instead turning to gaze around. Several cats were still sleeping, and all was quiet in the Nursery den - though he thought he sensed life stirring quietly. With a flick of his ringed tail, Cirro sat and began another early-morning grooming session. More like sensing a pounding through the ground than hearing the actual pawsteps, the Clouded Leopard turned and spotted Mira bounding silently in the direction of the den. He stood, his muscles tensed as he expected the Leopardess to bring bad news, but Cirro relaxed as he saw her run was that of exhilaration, not of anxiety.
As Sahari woke, she saw Konya attempting to stretch without stirring the cubs. Fortunately for the Sand Cat, only Daniel and Jasper had sought out her side for the night. She carefully dislodged herself from the two cubs, only Jasper stirring slightly. His dreams had eventually faded, as he was no longer twitching. Padding to a clear spot in the crowded den and stretched, her forepaws reaching forward as if to capture the very sunbeams reflected on the den's floor.

Mira slowed when she spotted Cirro. She padded up to him, carefull to keep a respectfull distance. "Good morning Cirro. Did I miss anything?" By now many members of the pride knew she often wandered off by herself and she had yet to see anything wrong with it.

Konya smiled at sahari and her child. "Good morning." She kept her voice low so she wouldn't wake any of the cubs. "Jasper did you sleep well?" The three cubs laying on top of her woke up and got off, silently playing.

"Morning, Mira," he nodded in greeting at the Huntress, still standing. He paused for a moment, internally battling his desire for silence before giving in with a sigh. "Last night was quite a pawful," he spoke quietly, his voice hardly audible over the whisper of the grasses. "There was another assisnation attempt, this time they tried murdering Calyn, but were unsuccessful. The Choosing is cancelled - it's being held tonight." His tail flickered.
"There's also to be a council meeting, when, I'm not sure," he gave a sort of half-shrug before seating himself, signalling the end of last night's news.

Jasper stirred as he felt his warm pillow move away. "Roarr!" he growled quietly in protest, his eyes peeking open. He scrambled to his paws when he saw it was morning, and he glanced around, his golden eyes wide. "I slept fine, Mama," he replied, bouncing over to Konya and licking her cheek. He blended in almost perfectly, just a lighter gray than his mother.

Mira's ears went floppy. "Just what we need. Sorry I missed it." She followed his lead and sat, curling her tail around her. She grabbed the end of it and pulled a bur out with her teeth. "Well then." She continued to pull the stuborn bur out of her tail.

"That's good, you need sleep." Konya purred and started to clean his head. "Why don't you go play with the cubs that are up?" Almost all the cubs sleeping around konya were up now and playing with each other. Some were climbing on zerphre, trying to wake him up.

Kirros didn't sleep that night at all but instead sayed up all night at the edge of the den. When morning came he was sitting in the shadow of the dens mouth trying to remain as concealed as possible. He watched Cayln get up and start to leave and the Brindle start to leave. Kiros then rose to all fours and started to silently move. Although he did stay up all night he took a few 10 min. naps every 45 min. Kirros was still pretty tired but shook it off as he followed his two superiours as they started to leave the camp.
