Aziza flicked water and bits of mud from her paws as she walked away from the waterhole and a refreshing drink. A tomboy to the core, she wasn't too concerned about being dirty, even with her pale fur. Her vanity was restricted to the appearance of strength and capability, rather than physical attractiveness. She couldn't care less if her fur was a mess, but if she were to fall off a rock or lose a game? She'd be mortified.
The adolescent didn't really think of herself as a girl, even if everyone else did. It was unavoidable when you were the only girl in a family of seven boys, and she hated it. She was so much more than just a girl! She was...she was awesome!

'miss awesome' better stay aware, because right her way, hurtled a very distracted boy, tailing nothing more than a hare. This specific hare seemed particularly good at avoiding his advances, a deep reddish-brown color, and why the heck did it have a feather in his mouth. "Stupid bunny I'll-- ah! " He snorted with a swift kick in the nose, pouncing and running and slashing at it, and it, who was a he, seemed to be taunting him!
And this continued, until they reached Aziza point, Chokuto cursing(not heavily) and shouting and flailing all the way, while this.. hare, seemed to contently enjoy a bit of game. Inevitably, soon Chokuto had a faceplant, at which point the deep-red hare seemed to notice Aziza, and shot off, promptly bouncing off Chokuto's rump before scampering away from her, leaving the boy in the dust.
"Stupid.. bunny. " He grumbled moodily.
Iva strikes again?

Aziza would have to have been totally deaf to not hear the youngster approaching - it was making all kinds of noise! She turned sharply to see what all the commotion was about, ears thrown forward and eyes keenly focused. Why, it was just a kid! And a...rabbit? Well, now it made sense!
She couldn't help but laugh when the chase came to an inelegant end, with the hare bouncing off the fallen juvenile. Not that she could have done much better, but that was totally beside the point.
"Hey!" she called out, not bothering to hide her laughter, "You okay there, kid, or did the bunny beat you up?"

Crap, crapcrapcrapcraap. Did he hear someone? Covering his eyes with a paw, Chokuto slowly lifted one off his face. And it was a girl! Shiiiiiiiiiit! With a huff, Chokuto sat up, folding his ears back.
"Oh, ha ha! That was so funny I forgot to laugh. " He snorted, rolling his eyes and curling his tail around his paws, hunching his shoulders. "Like you could do better! that thing was evil, I say! " He said, giving her a bit of a 'I dare you to disagree' look, though painfully aware he didn't look threatening after what had just happened-- not to mention he didn't have the gang with him!
"Besides, I was going easy on it! "

Oh, so it had an attitude, did it? Aziza had her own, true, but that only made the attitudes of others even more aggravating. She was the only one with the right to an attitude!
"Oh please," she replied, rolling her eyes. "Of course I could do better! I'm older, aren't I? That makes me better."
"Just like it was going easy on you, huh?" The adolescent snorted.

"That is so not ture! " Chokuto furrowed his brows, pointing an accusing paw at the girl. "If so, that means I'm better than you cuz I'm a boy! " He nodded, and even though Chokuto disliked girls, even he didn't find that right. .. Not that he didn't think himself better than them in the back of his mind, but details, details! "And if thats not true, then you're not better than me because you're older! " He nodded, closing his eyes and nodding smartly to give a nice period in his statement. If there was one thing he hated more than girls, was older girls!
"It wasn't going easy on me! " The juvenile said defensively, though he did know that was.. true. She didn't have to know that, though. "It was getting really tired and junk! Its lucky I pretended to fall so it could get away, or I woulda had it! "

"I am not a girl!" she protested vehemently. The younger lion had hit a very sore spot of Aziza's. "Not any ordinary kind of girl, anyway. So you can just...just shut up, that's what you can do!"
"You're just a kid anyway, so what the hell does it matter what you think?" The lioness huffed. "I'm totally better than you are, you little liar."

Ooh, had he hit a sore spot? "Of course you are! You smell it. " Chokuto nodded, a bit of a smug smile on his face, untill she brought up his age again, and called him a liar. A liar! Of all things-- Chokuto was.. brutally honest! Or he liked to think so... save for that occasional white lie, to, y'know, get out of trouble!
"I am not a liar! You're the liar! " Though, he did seem to notice that she wasn't exactly... girl-like, like Kwasi. Her fur was all.. dirty, and it was white! And she had just come from the watering hole, too.. "Well, you're not girly, but you're a girl! " He nodded, Aziza was probably pretty lucky, Chokuto didn't usually admit anything.
"And I'm ten times better than you are! "

"Well...well you're the one who makes up stories!" she sniffed, offended. She hadn't said anything that was a lie! Except that she could do better if she tried to catch a hare...but that was probably true, anyway! She'd had lessons! Sort of. Even if she had skipped most of them.
Aziza was placated for a moment by the boy's admission that while a girl, she wasn't girly, and actually smiled...before he declared his superiority again, and she snapped right back into competitive mode.
"Nuh-uh! I'm better than you times...times infinity!"

"Yes you did! You're not better than me just because you're older! " He stuck his tongue out again, standing on all four paws and pricling his fur. "That just proves that when you're old and breaky, I'll be young and awesome! " okay, so he wasn't that much younger than her-- who cares?!
"I'm better than you.. infinity times infinity! so there! " He said stubbornly, lifting his chin and making his oh-so-famous mock-regal pose, which, to his enjoyment, often pissed off Kwasi, which was reaaal nice.

"Pfft. Some things get better with age, kid. Like skills! My mom's plenty old, and she's the best hunter ever!" Not that Aziza had aspirations of being anything like her mother, oh no! Shomoro wasn't cool enough for her to want to be like. She was old and...mom-like. Who wanted to be mom-like?
"You can't times infinity! All you get is infinity, and that's copying what I said." So there! Take that, boy!

"Skills don't help if you're too tired to use them! You're moms prolly jjust not that old yet! " He nodded matter-of-factly, which didn't look very good on Chokuto, just made him look snooty. And he frowned at her objection to his infinity.
"Nu-huh! I can so do that! Infinity times infinity is a lot more infinity than your infinity! Its a bunch of infinities! " Okay, now his head was starting to hurt. Heeey, maybe hers was too! "My infinity is the most infinitiest infinity that there is times infinity of all infinities! " Yes, keep up with the blabber!

"There's only one kind of infinity, you stupid boy, and that's infinity!" If her head was starting to hurt, it was only because the little shrimp was so annoying. No way she'd been that annoying as a kid! Nevermind that fact that she was obviously still quite childish. As far as she was concerned, she was grown up now, and she knew better than anyone else.
"And that's it. So shut up, okay?"

"Stupid?! " He gaped, then did the best arm-cross a lion could do, leaning away from her. "I know what you are, but what am I? " He said, making his great 'snooty' face and twitching his tail tip idly, untill she told him to shut up. "I won't shut up just because you told me to! You're not the boss of me! " He said haughtily, then put his paws on his ears.
"LALALALALALALALALALALAALALALALALALA NOT LISTENING TO YOU. " Chokuto wasn't usually this much of a brat, but brat vs. other brat... it was the clash of the titans.

Oh no he didn't! There was only one way to retaliate when it boiled down to such a challenge, and it was bound to be easy. She could totally make more noise than this little brat! She was older, after all, and that meant she could roar. She'd even practiced!
And so, moving in closer, Aziza lowered her head to ear level and let loose her best and loudest roar. Just try to ignore that!
