"hnhnhn" She nuzzled him. She was happy, and purred loudly, "definately, not a dram" She grinned.
"feh" He layed down, crossing his front paws, "Whatever,.."

After a short while, her eyes fell upon a gazelle. It body seemed thick with fat as it grazed a little to far from it's group of five. She lowered herself in the grass more slinking closer toward the group. Her breath was lowered and her gazed fixed on the animal. Her thoughts were slightly on Chaos wondering, yet again, if he even cared at all.
"I'm glad too." He nuzzled her again and purred resting beside her. "Hope...I wonder if this is what you ment by wanting a family..." He looked her in the eyes, feathered tail coming to rest on hers. "You know I aim to please."

A long while had passed. THe rougue had long since left, and Hope was growing bigger with cubs by the day. Things were going quite peacefully in thier oasis home. It was on this day, she strolled out of the den. Karver was out on patroll, and so Hope didn't have to worry about him worrying over her for the time being. Today was a special day. Instincts were leading the queen, as she felt the little bodies within her move about with life; but every movement sent waves of something that,..wasn't quite pain, but definately wasn't no tickle. Like pressure being put upon a bruise, and Hope winced. She was to give birth soon,... The lioness had done much wondering in the days that Karver would patroll, and in those days she had found the special place where she would give birth. Hope's eyes lit up as she pushed through the leaves that hid her special place.
The giant leaves hid a hole inside of a large hollow tree, large enough for the lioness the enter the tree, and there still be enough roof for another half a full-grown lion.
She layed down along the back of the tree, the soil beneath her was cool, and moist, and felt good against her belly. Hope knew Karver didn't know anything about this place, and he would be concerned when he found her gone from the den, but that was all part of her plan: she would give birth in her king's absence, and when he came to find her, the surprise of finding both her and the cubs would take away all his fears,... It was when she felt a sudden sharp pain that she was brought out of her thoughts. She winced sharply, and a look of pain crossed her face, teeth bared against the pain. This was much different from the pains she was accustomed to feeling,....somehow,...instinct led Hope to know what was happening. Her breathing became raggid once labor insued, and things from then on took on thier own time-frame.
Not long after her labor began, a first cub was born; a beautiful baby girl that looked oh-so-much like her father. Hope only had time to clean her, and nuzzel the little mewing babe before the second come was born. Another girl,..with the colorings of her mother,...and traces of her father showing through. Hope thought all was through, untill a last cub was born, a complete surprise,...and a boy. A handsome purple male. He was quite different from both his parents, but he was beautiful. They all were.
With the birthing over, hope layed back tiredly, and watched as the little trio of kittens nuzzeled up to her stomach for thier first meal. Now all that was left was for Karver to come.
((oh yeah,..and Chaos will be back XDD ))

(( Duude, sweet blaugh Yeah..Anya's out and about too. xp ))
Karver huffed coming back into the cave. He was pretty tired from the patrol, but really wanted to see Hope. When no trace of his queen was to be found in the cave, he became slightly concerned. Then it hit him: she was far enough along to give birth.
Quickly finding her scent, the big male leaped out of the cave entrance and quickly followed it. He went to a part of the Oasis that seemed hidden from him, a little paradise ment for something very important. His heart began to beat out of his chest as he came onto the scene. He heard sounds...baby sounds. Hurrying, he found the old tree that his queen had chosen for her birthing spot. Poking his head into the hole, he held his breath. There was the love of his life, Hope, with his kittens. He poked more of himself inside until only half of him stuck out of the hole. He reached over to Hope and licked her muzzle. "Dear Heart...they're beautiful." He whispered softly then gazed upon the main reason he was here.
Karver looked over his children. One was practically the spitting image of him, save for the marking on her belly. The pink one looked so much like her mother, save for his markings on her face. Now the boy...the boy was perplexing. Thinking for a moment, he realized the cause: Karver had a purple underbelly. He chuffed softly and licked each of his cubs. They mewed in response, especially the male who seemed to instinctively bite his nose.
He gave a small little huff and pried the cub off his nose gently. He nudged him with his left forepaw back to his mother's belly for his meal. Rubbing his nose, he gave a little chuckle. "That one...is a biter..." Karver nudged Hope on the snout then licked her softly. "We need names, Dear Heart...Have you thought of any while you were here?" He really didn't want to rush her, but names would be good for now. They would decide on other things later.

Hope nuzzled Karver back, and chuckled when the little male kitten latched onto his nose, "names? well," She smiled and looked from Karver to the cubs, "The sleepy little yellow one is Aurore((sleeping beauty reference XD)),...and her sister is Hikari. I couldn't think of a name for our little boy there,..." She chuckled, and looked back up to Karver, "how 'bout you name him?" Her eyes sparkled happily, and she pawed at his cheek.
Aurore crawled over to her daddy's paw, and layed her front paws and chin on it, and snuggled in lovingly, before going to sleep, cutely/

He smiled over at his little child and nuzzled her as she slept. Looking over at his son, he chuffed. "Well...I think...I'll call him Kamau...the quiet warrior..." Karver smiled over at his mate and nuzzled her chin lovingly giving a soft purr.
The young prince growled at the big lion and pawed at his nose again. He was about to bite when a soft, warm tongue came in contact with his belly. He immediately calmed down and curled up to the king. Kamau gave a soft growl staying close to his father.

Anya had already eaten the meat from her catch. Chaos can find his own food, he's so dominant. Stretching a little, she wandered from the main Oasis toward to where she thought the lake was only to wander into the pride of another lion...

Adrastos approached his old home, he had decided to pay his old King a visit. As he approached the borders a strong roar emerged from his throat and echoed through the lands. His steel orb glancing around as the breeze blew through his thick white mane. The orca male stepped over the boundaries and walked to the den he once called home. Muscles rippling as he walked, he had truly grown into the lion he thought he never could have become. He had been succesful his pride was doing well and he wanted to see how Karver was coming along. The male chuffed as the den was within his sights.

The old King had been napping outside of Hope's hiding spot with the cubs. Yawning, he arose and gave a greeting roar of his own. The stranger's was slightly familiar as he head heard it before. Shaking his mane, he got up and took his time getting to the den. His tail trailed behind him slightly as if to make a pathway through the grasses. He soon came in view of the den and the visitor. Karver's eyes sparkled as he saw an old member. "Adrastos! Welcome, welcome." His voice boomed slightly as he came into view. "I am glad you are here. I hope the journey wasn't so long, please take a rest." He motioned for the other king to step into the den.
The Oasis Prince poked his head out of the temporary "den" his mother had mad. Seeing his father, the purple cub climbed down from the hole, quite clumsily, and followed his dad. His feet was slightly wobbily as the chubby baby kept up pace. His tail feathers waved slightly. He gave a soft growl coming behind his father. Karver didn't know that Kamau had come with him. He advance foreward and came between Karver's legs trying to intimate his father's stance. He looked slightly like a mini-Karver.

Adrastos nodded to Karver,"The journey was pleasent. It's good to see you again." He chuckled at the cub. "Has been awhile since I saw you last, hasn't it Kamau?" he ruffled the cub's fur with his giant paw. He seemed to have oddly big feet and they always seemed to get in his way. He then followed Karver into the den a bit restless, he wanted to catch up a bit with his old pride.

Karver looked down at his son, whom he didn't expect to see. He must have followed without him knowing. The King huffed slightly and picked up Kamau by his scruff. Stepping into the cave, he set the cub down on a low little perch that seemed to suit him well. Stretching a little, he looked over at the meat stock. "We still have some fresh meat. If you would like to eat some, please help yourself. He sat down next to the prince's perch tail waving infront of the cub to keep him occupied.
He growled at the lifting and tried to bat at his father's face. As he was set down, he growled again and swiped at the air trying to show how tough he was. As Karver dangled his feathers, Kamau tried to pounce them. He snapped at the air, his baby teeth surprisingly sharp, like a hornet sting. He then looked over at Adrastos and "roared" loudly as if to show dominance.

Adrastos shook his head, "My own lionesses have filled me." he nodded. "Thank you for your generous offer though." he smiled warmly. "So how have you been, Karver?" he asked rather informally. He peered to the cub as a low playfully growl emerged from his throat as he lowered himself to the ground as if to pounce, he flickered his tail. He was obviously good with little ones and he loved them. He still had plenty of cubs in his own pride right now.

Hope had watched as the young prince ran off to follow his father. She also poked her own head out of the den, to see the events outside, "It's nice to hear that you are fairing well, Adrastos," She smiled warmly.
Aurore nipped at her sisters ear playfully, as her own little ears flicked about to try and hear the noises outside.

Hikari woke at her sister's nipping and whined a little, still tired. She, too, listened to what was going on outside. She was rather shy, it seemed. She was a little more quiet and lazy than one might expect.
Her ears twidgeted about as she listened to what was going on outside. She heard her mother's voice and she smiled to herself at the comfort of her mother's voice.

Aurore was a happy littly hyper cubblette, and after pouncing on Hikari, she climbed onto her mothers back, curling up in the thick pink furr. "pah!" The little golden baby said, slapping a forepaw down.
Hope looked to the two little girls an chuckled. Seems Aurore was going to be hyper like her father, and Hikari was more like she.
