Dharba followed his sister curious about this femme. "What does she look like? I could help keep an eye out for her! Two sets of eyes are better then one!" He tilted his head and hoped she would tell him, would be nice to know what a lioness looked like if he was looking for her!

"She's big, like our mothers, and red. And she has pink on her chest, like I have on my head." She puffs her little tuft and flicks her head for emphasis. Yet another reason she never doubted Rahima was family. They had some colouring the same!
She comes to a stop rather abruptly, at a fork in the vague pathway she'd been following. She could either go left, or straight on, with no guarantee that Rahima was down either path. Which way should she go?
[We need to lassoo Edit and haul her over to this RP. Ny needs to see her again, and she needs to meet her uncles, hoo yes.]

Dharaba just listened and nodded, a red lioness? Yeah what ever they didn't exist! He didn't voice his thoughts, after all, that probably wouldn't be the most clever thing to do right now.
A small red cub, not that much larger then Ny was wandering around, hunting bugs to be honest. He rarely strayed from his mother as he loved her greatly and never liked being away from her but this bug had been annoying him. He wanted to tell it off! Hit it round the head and teach it a lesson!
He hadn't meant to have strayed so far but as he came across one of the paths, to the right of the other two cubs, the small bug flew off! The flithy thing had wings and was just playing with him! His small black mane flying as he attempted to pounce after it and a little snarl emmited from his throat. As he watched it fly off he turned and saw the other cubs. He hadn't seen any other cubs, just his brother. He wasn't a mistweaver, just a visitor or something or maybe he was, he wasn't sure.

For the moment, she'd been ignoring her brother's presence, debating which way she should go. She didn't want to look like an idiot for going the wrong way. As she turned her head this way and that, trying to come to a decision, her crimson eyes fell onto the red cub, and she blinked. Wow. He looked just like... Wait a minute. Could this possibly be one of Rahima's cubs? He sure did look like her. Better not ask flat-out, though. It was rather rude, she thought, and besides, she didn't want to looking like a fool for assuming he was Rahima's just because the colour of their fur matched.
"Hello!" she called out, beginning to walk towards the cub, glancing back at Dharba to make sure he was following her.

Dharaba was slightly shocked by the sight of the red cub, after thinking a red lion couldn't exist he was, well, mistaken and glad he hadn't voiced his opinion. He followed his sister not saying anything. The cub looked, somewhat, strange and knowing his mouth he would say something rude or just wrong.
The youngster watched the two and relaxed a little as the female spoke. "hey." He spoke quietly and softly like his mother, his coat resembling her different shades. He was definatly a strange cub, stood out in the crowd, that was for sure.

This was the first time Ny had met a cub that she didn't live with; she didn't really know how to proceed with this meeting. But... one can only learn through trial and error, right? "What's your name?" She tilts her head as she comes to a stop, a mere foot from the red cub. She thought it better to know his name, rather than refer to him as the 'red cub' in her mind. After a moment's pause, she realises the error in her request: she didn't offer her own name, which was rude, wasn't it? "I'm Nyunya," she offers quietly. "This is my brother, Dharba." She knew Dharba's mouth, too. At least Denge had driven manners into Ny's skull already.

Dharba continued to keep his mouth shut, best that way and after all Ny had already introduced him!
The red cub however just stared at them for a while. "I am Nogea." He didn't say much more. He was rather shy but ever so friendly, he wouldn't hurt a soul, the bug he was chasing just happened ot be unlucky, that was all!

It once again fell to her to make conversation, it seemed. She slowly lowers herself to a sitting position, blowing salmon fur from her eyes as she thought over what she could say next. She'd never done this before. She didn't really know how to hold a conversation with a stranger.
"So..." she begins, her voice slow. "What are you doing out here... alone?" Maybe he'd wandered away from his parents? Only one way to find out: ask. "Where are your mothers?" Of course she wouldn't know that not every cub had two mothers; she's never met any other family around here. Her own is what's normal by her standards. She's never heard of a father, because she doesn't have one. Well, she does, but... wouldn't be good for her to meet him. Nuh-uh.

He looked slightly worried as she spoke about mother. "Mother was sleeping, I think with my brother... I was chasing a bug, something Ewanshia would normally do, bu...but... im so silly I should be back with mother!" He did look a little worried, why wasn't his mother here? Had he lost her?
Dharaba listened to the conversation and looked a little curious. "Hey! Calm down its not the end of the world. We can help you find her if ya want. Sis was looking for a lion like you anyway, just bigger and female!" He smiled, wondering why his sister hadn't said anything about it already!

She nodded at Dharba's little statement. She would help him find his mother, because perhaps his mother was Rahima, and Rahima was who she was looking for. Although, she didn't quite understand why Nogea was so frantic to get back to his mother. Didn't he want to explore? All mothers, as far as she knew, tried to stop you exploring. She was forever trying to escape hers.
"Which way did you come from?" She rears up onto her hind legs to see over Nogea, as though expecting to see some sign telling her which way he'd originally come from. It seemed the best way to start walking, in her opinion.
[That's terrible. Sorry. e.e My brain feels like mushy peas.]

Nogea looked at her and for the first time in his life was a little rude! "How am I suppose to know? I followed that bug!" He then turned to the boy. "My mother is red. She a lovely mother." He then loooked all shy and silly again, he was lost, that was for sure.
Dharba was a little taken aback by him but just said nothing. His mother was obviously this lioness his sister wanted, so maybe they should sniff her out?

"Now. Where could my cubs be, hmm?"
A soft laughing voice rang out nearby, followed by a content 'intimidating' growl and then a snarl, as the red lionness 'hunted' down her third and fourth born children. It was a game of course. Rahima was not the kind of mother to turn on her cubs. It was like hide and seek, really...with the added benifit of teaching the pair how to conceal themselves.
Another cub, almost like Nogea in markings but with drastically different colouring came rushing through the undergrowth nearby. He pulled up short when he saw not only his brother - but other cubs as well. Blue eyes blinked.

Now, little Nyunya wasn't the sort who appreciated people snapping at her, and usually doing this would have caused her to snap back at the red cub. But she could see that he was obviously upset by losing his mother, so she swallowed whatever less-than-pleasant words threatened to escape her throat. After all, she supposed if she really lost Ithi or Denge she'd also be as upset as Nogea was.
But then she'd heard that familiar voice, and her black tipped ears perked up. That was Rahima! A grin split her muzzle, but as she began to move towards the voice, the other cub suddenly made an appearance. Who was this, she wondered, head tilting to the side. He looked a little like Nogea - their markings were similar - so she made a wild guess that this was, perhaps, his brother... which meant he was one of Rahima's cubs, too.

Nogea rushed to his brother and nuzzled him before finding his way through the bushes where he found his mother. "Momma!" He pratically squeaked as he rubbed against the red femmes forelegs.
Dharba didn't know quite what to do, after all, there was an adult coming though his sister seemed to want to go towards the voice instead of running away but then again, things like that happened every now and then, right? He just watched, saying nothing as usual.

Rahima took a few seconds to nuzzle the red male lovingly before looking up at the three paler cubs with a smile. Her grand daughter! Such a nice surprise. She'd been meaning to visit the grey lionnesses and their cubs for a while now - but things had kept coming up...
"Hello Ny" She sat down, pink striped tail tip curling round.
"Hullo - I'm Siha, you probably know that from Nogea." Usually quiet, the sudden apparence of other cubs, other lions, shocked him into speaking. He nudged his brother when he mentioned him, a silent affectionate hello. "Who're you? Ny aaand...?"
