Welcome to Gaia! ::

Pride was slightly bruised as Siltim got up and shook his mane out. Lime green eyes looked at Alula with narrowed eyes, "Alula! That's not funny!" Chu'mana was laughing as well, and he just couldn't stay made. If he was watching someone do what he just did, he'd be laughing as well. A chuckle slowly made it's way through his throat as he stood there wagging his tail. "Okay, when you guys are all done laughing at me, let me know!" He teased the two of them, while keep a close eye on Alula. He wouldn't let her get away this easily! To Chu'mana, he looked at her, "It seemed like her...I told you she was sneaky!"

Smug, Alula giggled at Siltim, still amazed that he fell for her trick. It wasn't until she looked at him did she notice he wasn't alone. He was with a green lioness that she's never seen before. Her dark eyes brighten as she felt a smile grow wider on her features, lighting up her eyes. Oh, this was going to be so much fun! She turned to the lioness to introduce herself, "I'm Alula, but I'm sure you already knew that from Siltim. He's so over-protective of me!" Not that he was really, she just felt like he was since he had to watch her all the time.

Dark eyes lit up as Alula smiled. She could already tell that she'd get along real well with Chu'mana. Her eyes darted back and forth between Siltim and the lioness, wondering if they were close friends. She hoped so, poor Siltim needed a companion, like her Dad! An idea started to formulate in her mind. Turning to Chu'mana, she smiled innocently, "It's a pleasure to meet you, Chu'mana! Tell me, are you coming to live with us?"

Shaking his head, Siltim shot a look at Alula. She shouldn't be so nosy! Turning to the little cheetah juvenile, he playfully batted her, "Come on, let's get you home. I don't like that look like you have on your face, don't even get any ideas!" He nudged her forward, heading back towards the Pridelands. To Chu'mana, he gave her a smile, "She's too curious for her own good sometimes." He chuckled lightly before flicking his tail at the lioness, playfully getting her as well. He wouldn't leave her out of the fun now!

Pleased with the lioness's stutter and slight blush, that was all the answer that Alula needed. A smug grin grew across her features as she stuck out her tongue at Siltim, "Yes Daddy, I'll be a good girl and go home." She rolled her eyes playfully before walking a few ways ahead of the pair, many plans were formulating in her mind, though none stood out.

Shaking his head, Siltim couldn't help but chuckle at Alula. She was something, that was for sure. Noticing Chu'mana's quietness, he turned to look at her. Leaning close to her, he gave her a small smile, "I would like it if you could stay with us. There is plenty of room for you to join my family." His lime green eyes kept an eye on Alula, just to make sure she didn't go wandering off anymore.

At Chu'mana's stuttering, Alula looked back and giggled. "We don't live at Pride's rock, the royals live there. We live close to it though!" Her tail flicked before she smiled brightly at the green lioness, sneaking a glance at Siltim, "Oh, Siltim doesn't live alone yet, he still lives with his family. He hasn't found a female for himself...yet!" She winked at Chu'mana. Another giggle escaped the little black cheetah, quite enjoying herself at the moment. She was about to say more when Siltim put his paw on her head, quieting her.

Lime green eyes widen at Alula and before she could say anymore, Siltim placed his paw on her head, "Alula!" He chided before turning to the brightly colored Chu'mana. He replied to her questions, "Alula is right in that we don't actually live in Pride's rock, we live close to it." His eyes darted at Alula, "And, I share a den with my family. So yes, you could come stay with my family unless you wanted a place for just you and I?" He couldn't help but chuckle as he watched Chu'mana. "I've been helping my father take care of my mother for the past month, she's been heavy with cubs and I now have a bunch of new, younger siblings. It'll be like a big family!" That sounded like a great idea to him, a family was something he cherished greatly as he was close with both of his parents.

Smiling at the lioness, Alula's dark eyes twinkled, "You can become part of our family then! We have a big family between my family and Siltim's family." She turned to look back ahead as Pride's rock came into view. "OH! We're almost there!" Glancing back at Siltim and Chu'mana, "Just imagine all the fun we'll have together!" So many games were running through her mind at all the fun they could have.

Nodding his head slightly, Siltim silently agreed with Alula. Chu'mana could be apart of their family, it was large enough already. He smiled at the lioness, "It is alright, our immediate family is large while my parents don't know much about their own family before they met in the Pridelands." His lime green eyes watched the lioness, before giving her a comforting smile. "We're not too far from where we stay, it shouldn't be that much longer. Would you want to rest when we get there?"

(Ending post. ^^ We should start up a new one in the Pridelands, if you want.)

The little black cheetah kept ahead of the two lions, bounding back to their way home. It wasn't that far now, they had traveled most of the distance back. Alula's dark eyes turned back towards the two lions and a smile grew on her features. Turning her head back towards their home, she spotted her den and ran towards her family, leaving Siltim and Chu'mana to their own fun. But, she didn't run off to her family before calling out, "I will see you two later!"

His head inclined slightly as lime green eyes watched Alula head off to her family. Siltim then turned his attention to Chu'mana with an affectionate gaze. He returned her gesture with a soft rub of his head against her's. It made him smile at her words, they were comforting. "Don't worry, you'll have the best time of your life!" His flicked his tail against her, "Let's go see my family!" And with that, he led her in the direction of his family's den.
