The lioness perked her ears at the red cub, flicking her tail and blinking. The leopard was coming! The leopard was coming to help her! And she'd finally get down this stupid, stupid tree! Hesitantly, she stood slightly on the branch, waiting for the other cat to arrive.
Usiku blinked, looking up at the sight, and smiling slightly. It'd be hilarious to see Sukari in a situation like this, because she would have damn well deserved it. He hated the lioness, but he couldn't have done much anyway. She was bigger than him, as was this girl.
With a sigh, he shot up the tree, climbing with ease to the point where the lioness was, and sitting calmly on the branch. "So you're stuck. " He said, flicking his tail. "Why did you climb up here anyway? "

Makani looked up as the leopard climbed the tree, then moved to sit next to Loki by the rock, resting his head on the stone boredly. It was only polite to wait for the lioness to get down before leaving, so this was exactly what he intended to do. He perked his ears as he saw the bird again, and flicked his son's shoulder with his tail.
"Oi, go make sure he got the message last time. " The cheetah said, yawning.
Loki, imitating his dad, flopped next to the rock, then blinked as his shoulder was flicked, batting at his fathers retreating tail and tilting his head. What message..? Then he saw the bird too, and frowned. He didn't like that bird, oh no. And now that he knew he could best it, so with a determined little huff, the red cheetah hopped onto his paws and trotted over to the bird.
"New rule, you can't be within my sight! because you make me mad. " He said, lying on his belly and flicking his tail. The bird stared at him, and snorted. "Fine-- but nexttime I see ye without yer dad-- " Loki narrowed his eyes, folding his ears back and opening his mouth-- the bird was gone like a flash.

Ooh, greaat. She didn't feel like getting scolded right now! "I wanted to take a nap. " She said, looking away slightly. It'd just be wrong to be rude to this guy, he was trying to help. He just didn't seem to be the best.. talker, now did he?
"So, how do I get down? " She asked, trying to mimic his confidence and sitting down, though her claws dug hopelessly into the bark.
A lion wanting to take a name in a tree! That was just.. brilliant, just brilliant. Okay, normally, he'd climb down his normal way, like leopards usually do, face-first. But this lioness wouldn't have the guts to do that, he doubted it. So lets give her the kiddy class.
"Come over here, " He said, then backed back to the edge of the trunk, then crouched, clinging to the very base of the branch and setting his hind paws on the trunk. "And do this. " Very explanatory, nice. "Now pass a front paw to the tree-- " He said, releasing one of his paws from the branch and attaching it to the trunk. "Now the other. " This was quicker, and soon enough, it looked like he was hugging the tree. Shifting from that, Usiku climbed back up. "Then you just make your way down. "

"Like this..? " Okay, this was creepy. Now here she was, clinging to the branch and attaching her hind paws to the tree.
"Yes, now do like I told you. " Usiku rolled his eyes slightly, lying down on the branch he'd found, resting his head boredly on a paw like he was some kinder-garden teacher trying to teach a kid how to write.
"Then make your way down.
Clenching her teeth together, the lioness, slowly but surely, passed her paws to the trunk of the tree, soon enough, also looking like she was hugging the tree. This was awkward. Now, to get down.. Uhh..
Still clinging to the tree, she began to walk backwards with her hind paws, carefully passing her front paws every two steps from the hind ones, finally seeming to get close enough to the ground to feel secure enough to jump.
Ooh, sweet ground! Slumping pathetically on the floor, the lioness nuzzled the ground. "I'll never leave you gain! " She gasped, smiling up to the two cheetah. "Thans so much for your help! " She said happily, then rolled onto her back to look up at the leopard. "You too.. whats your name? "

The cheetah could hardly hold back his laughter at the lioness trying to climb down the tree, it simply looked hilarious. "No problem. " He said, smiling as she finally reached the ground, and seemed glad to do so. Flicking his tail, he looked down at his son. "Come on Loki, we should get going. " He nodded, and looked up at the leopard. "Thanks for your help! " He nodded, then looked down at the lioness again.
"Bye, " he said, and turned to walk away.
The cub blinked. Aww, they were leaving?! Just now that Avani got down, too! With a small huff, the cub rolled to his paws, still laughing a bit at the mental image of Avani climbing down, unlike hs father, having been unable to contain his amusement and having burst into a ball of laughing fluff as she had tried to get down.
"Okay, da. Bye Avani! Bye mr. leopard! " He said cheerfully, then trotted quickly after the retreating shape of his father.

He blinked, land-lover-lioness. That was just odd. Climbing down the tree with much eae, he stood next to the larger cat, looking down at her. "I'm Usiku. " He said, flicking his tail slightly. "And you should stay away from trees. " He smirked, stepping over the lioness to walk away.
"And I'm going, sooo bye. "
"Nice to meet-- " She blinked, as suddenly the leopard stepped over her, his tail flicking her nose-- though she was sure that was unintentional.
"Okay, bye Usiku! " She said, looking up at the sky, half closing her eyes. "And then there was one. " The linoess sighed; she was always alone, wasn't she?
