Sano chuckled low, nodding at his sister. "Its been a long time...it really isn't how i remember it...at all..." He grinned, "Of course...that was a long time ago." he paused, "And mom and dad were here..." He looked to his sister. "You gunna be okay?"

She glanced at him out of the corner of her eye. "It raelly was a long time ago..." The lioness queen gave a light sigh before blinking raising her head.
"Huh? What? Oh.. yeah. I'm gonna be f-"
"Aji? Sano?" The voice was deep, low. Familiar. It gave a laugh and the dark red lion came in to view. Immediatly, Ajila's eyes lightened. "I though I caught a familiar scent. I didn't think I'd see anyone around he- Oof!"
"Ashura!" Ajila pounced her old mentor, causing him to tumble over, unaware of how much she had grown since she had last seen him. Giggling, she looked down at him. "It's been forever since I last saw you!"
Ashura chuckled and nudged the lioness off of her. "Indeed is has..." His gaze shifted towards Sano. "I'm just here visiting. Has Abasi..." As the eyes of Ajila dimmed again, he shook his head. "You haven't found him then..." He blinks and looks back to the blue lion. "Then what are you two doing back here at the old pride?"

"Ashura..." The blue male stepped up, Ashura...the one pride member he remembered...the old male who his sister loved so much. "Ashura...Its been a long time..." He smiled. "We're opening the pride again...hoping dad will come back..."

"Ah..." The large male looked to Sano. "I'm sure he'll return" he gave a wry smile and nodded his head. "Good luck with the pride and all. Wish I could stay here, but I have to go find Iolani..."
They both had grown so much... it was almost breathtaking. He remembered what it was like when they were both cubs. Sano had wandered often, but Ajila was always tagging along, insisting that he train her...
Ajila gave a giggling laugh. "You have a mate? I never thought that a lion as old as yourself could-"
"Oi, oi. No needed to be harsh there~" Ashura pawed at Ajila playfully, "I'm not that old..."

Sano waggled his eyebrows at the older male." Mate eh? Niiiice. " He grinned at the male and winked. "You'll have to bring her by, to meet us, old man. "He dipped his head to the male. "I'll let you know if we have any males after Aji over there...I may need help chasin them off..." He grinned at his sister.

Imharia stopped at the border, heart in her throat. She swallowed audibly, drawing a deep breath. Her roar was bold, the call of a princess.. Not a request to join, a call.. A warning.. That she was here.. And someone should come greet her.. She needed to talk to Sano.. To at least hear that they were allys.. She couldn't tell him again.. He knew how much of her heart he owned.. And she knew that if he made one offer... Nuzzling her, letting the silken fall of his mane brush against her, that she would shatter behind her wall and tell him how much she loved him...

Ashura laughed lightly. "If she wants to, I suppose I could bring her by sometime. She's a bit... different." He smiled faintly, nodding his head and nudging Sano. "You be sure to do that, a'ight?"
Ajila huffed lighty, making the most innocent pouty face she could. It was more convincing when she was a cub.
"I don't need someone to chase off males for me, ya'know..." Blinking, her ears flicked. Someone was at the border. She glanced at her brother, arching a brow. It was either a wanderer, or someone for him. She hadn't invited anyone yet... "Someone's here" She murmured. Well... that was obvious. "You wanna check it out? Or would you like me to...?"

Sano shook his head. No...she wouldn't be here...would she? "I'll handle it Aji...I'll be right back." He bolted to the edge of the pride, pushing himself to get there fast. To keep her here...He knew she wouldn't stay...but he could hope. He charged up, and skidded to a stop. "Imharia...." He rumbled, stepping up to her..." What are you doin here..?"

Imharia shifted from paw to paw, her ears pinning against her head, well.. That was a fine greeting! She frowned at him, face turning into a smoothe white mask. Drawing herself up, she drew a deep breath and spoke.
Her voice was cold and detatched. "I come as an emisary from Cyan Serenity.. My father Ferrian sends his greetings to his allies in Red Rain, and has sent me to reaffirm the alliance... As well as check on your health.. "

His eyes softend. "I'm alright...and the Allies still stands..." He stepped closer, so close he had to look down. "Are...are you ok?" He looked at her, wanting so bad to touch her. "I've missed you...alot."

Funny little ripples moved through her as he spoke, and she tried not to focus on his gentle eyes.
"I shall tell the King.." She murmured, willing herself to just turn and walk away... She didn't want to talk to this male... She couldn't do this... She'd be better at home... Away from this all...
"I am doing well." She offered shyly. "I thank you for your concern... I... I missed you too..."
She trailed off, ducking her head.

Sano purred deeply, rubbing his head against her's. Knowing full well thats she was going to KILL him. "I...I don't know what to say to you Imha...I...I really missed you...You have no idea how hard it was for me to leave..."

It took most of her willpower not to just sink into him, to nuzzle and purr and cling to him... Her eyes filled with tears and she shuddered, trying hard not to do something she couldn't take back... Why did she have to feel for this male? He wanted to be here... And she felt needed in her father's Pride... Why?
"Oh Sano..." She barely whispered. "Why did you leave me?"
She leaned back, tearfilled eyes lovely in their sadness.

Sano sighed. "I...Never had a father. I grew up in Cyan, and when Aij and I met for the first time in a long while...I knew what I had to do...We needed to do this...for us...I want to know my dad...He'll come back to us one day...and I want to be here." He looked at her, really looked at her. "I didn't want to leave you...It hurt so much to leave you...More than any pain i'd ever felt..."

Imharia watched him, tried to understand... There were a lot of things about him leaving they'd probably never be able to fix.. How he left.. How her heart broke.. How so many things went unsaid between them...
"There are lots of things we can't fix..." She said softly, eyes downcast once more.. "But I do care about you... And I'm sorry I couldn't say all the things you needed to hear when you left..."
