The jungle was known to be a colorfully bright place. With all its exotic birds, flowers and lions? Typically the pride housed bright lions and little Nyarai couldn't resist seeing more.
The little red , black streaked maned little boy tumbled his way through the jungle terrain. . . Very ungracefully. Nyarai, or Noel as he called him self, was a klutz. The little cub made SO much noise that he could probably be heard by a few prides over.
No, Noel was horribly ungraceful. It was a wonder he was born a lion and not an elephant or another loud awkward animal. But elephants were not sexy, no, and lions were. Despite the fact he was ungraceful, the lion took very good care of him self. He almost sparkled with glam, if that was possible.
Snap. Crack. BAM!
And the lion walked right into a tree. He rubbed his head and looked up. How did he miss that?

 In all honesty, Kim'acha didn't want to be up and about today. Quite the opposite, in fact, but she knew that was impossible with her rowdy siblings and her grandmother and mother lurking about, watching her every move. It wasn't that she didn't love her family; she did, it was that they were always around. If she tried talking to anyone about it, they said she got it from their filthy father. If he was filthy, what did that make the cubs? What did that make her? was she filthy too? No one would ever answer that question, oh no. They just gave her a sad look and changed the subject, like that would satisfy her.
It made her heart ache whenever her father got made fun of when he wasn't here to defend himself. Of course the yellow lioness knew that's why he was being made fun of. To everyone, it seemed like he just used her mother for a single night. And that might have been part of it, sure, but Kim knew that her daddy loved her mommy in some way.
A loud thud interrupted her thoughts and she blinked, looking towards the sound of it. It wasn't like she would be able to see what made the noise, but she could see colors and blobs.
Getting up from her spot in the tall grass near her den, she headed over, head tilting to the side, steps unsure. Kim was usually out with someone; followed their scent and color. Of course her footing would be unsure. "Hello....?" She called out, voice seeming way to loud in a quiet area like this.

The dark red lion cub sat there for a moment rubbing his head. He would have had no idea that another lion was close by if it wasn't for the 'Hello'. Noel froze.
"H-hello?" He looked about and didn't see anyone. "A-are you a tree?" He blinked about and looked at the tree he just ran into. He REALLY looked at it for a long period of time just staring a hole through the trunk.
"I heard about talking trees before, " This was a lie, Noel had NEVER heard about talking trees before. Honestly, his imagination was just running wild right now," But I never thought we'd have one in our jungle."
The lion frowned and sat in front of the tree and just stared. What else was it going to say?

Was she a tree? A giggle escaped her as she listened to the conversation the boy was having with a tree, apparently. Sometimes she wondered about little boys. They were so silly! But, she decided to go along with it, anyway, until he figured it out!
"Of course I'm a tree, silly! There are a lot of talking trees around if you just listen to us! Our voices are on the winds, that talk to us, and the flowers hold our dearest secrets! I'm a fairly young tree despite how big I am. It's slow aging for us, which is more than I can say for a lot of you!"

Noel opened his maw and backed up. The little dark red cub could not believe it.
"I -" He paused and looked up into the canopy trying to find a face or something. "I knew it!" He grinned up and swatted up wards, "So tree spirit, why don't you show your self?"

Why was this so easy? Laughing a bit, Kim'acha sighed and licked her muzzle, thinking of her next words carefully. "Alright. I'll form myself so you're comfortable with me! Turn around now and look upon this form just for your eyes!"
Kim got into position, sitting delicately looking, finding a flower and putting it behind her ear, her eyes looking to the side as if so shy to meet him. Which, in fact, she would be. Talking like she was a tree spirit was one thing, but talking to another male who wasn't family was something else all together!

Noel turned slowly and almost fell on his rear in disbelief. He couldn't believe his eyes, a real live tree spirit. And she was fashionable.
"Oh-ohh," The words wouldn't form correctly so for the next five minutes the red cub just sat there repeating 'oh' over and over again.
"You're a .. You're a..." A smiled snaked one his maw, "You're a real tree spirit !? " Noel got up and trotted on over to her with a wide ear to ear grin. She was so bright and she was a tree spirit and a fashion guru!? This was all so much for the little red cub to take in all at once.

She couldn't help but giggle uncontrollably at his reaction to her. Kim'acha decided she should really, really tell him the truth. Shaking her head, she let the flower drop to the ground and sighed softly. "S-sorry! I--" She broke off in laughter again and tried to calm down. Everytime she took a breath, she started to squeak, causing her to laugh even more.
It took a moment, but she got herself pulled together enough to talk. "I'm not really, silly!" She was breathless as she talked. With one long, hard sigh, the yellow female got comfortable in a laying down position and grinned. "Sorry!"

Noel opened his maw and took a step back.
"So modest, " He said after a few long moments. He still couldn't believe his eyes. A real live tree spirit.
But what was so funny to have her laughing? Noel laughed a bit him self to fit in, but it wasn't very convincing laughter.
"So.. what was the joke?"

He didn't believe her that she wasn't really a tree spirit? How queer! With a paw in the air waving like nothing was wrong, the little yellow girl calmed down a bit and sighed heavily at the end, laughter subsiding. Ok, so this male was so adorably cute and believed someone so easily.
"I'm just a cub! I'm not a tree spirit..."

Noel fell backwards, he couldn't believe he fell for such a simple joke. Hook line and sinker.
"No way!" He just stared at her, " You really are good at pretending to be a tree spirit," the cub had rolled over and was back on his feet in no time just staring at her.
After a moment, a smile found its way on his maw.
"My you're pretty though. I'm Noel, who are you?"

She was pretty? Blinking violet eyes, Kim'acha cocked her head to the side and then stared at him a while. She as pretty as some of the females she'd seen in the pride. Her grandmother was, by far, prettier than her. So for this male to say she was pretty.... Well.
"I....I'm Kim'acha.. And I'm not pretty or good at pretending to be a tree spirit!" She was so embarrassed and flustered by those simple words. She shifted a bit, looking down as she played with the grass beneath her paws for but a second. "Noel is a pretty name... What's your full name?"

Noel frowned, he thought she was pretty. But he kept his argument to him self since he was taught a female was always right. Still, he wanted to and the pain on his face showed.
"Nyarai," He smiled, "But I like Noel better. " He giggled and got into a crouching position batting at Kim in a playful manner.
"Kim'acha huh? I like that name. Can I call Kim?" He rolled onto his back and playfully pawed up at her.

When she was batted at, the yellow female giggled and batted right back at him before moving to his side to rub at his tummy, wondering if he was ticklish. "You can call me Kim! Everyone else, does!" She said, watching his face.
Now that she was closer to him, she could see him better, he was pretty cute for a boy! Giggling, she stopped and then spun around in a circle before sitting pretty in front of him, pawing at him as if she wanted to play more. "I think you are pretty!"

Noel smiled, clenching his teeth trying to hold in his laughter that was now churning in his belly. The red lion couldn't stand it anymore, a roar of laughter echoed through the jungle as he flailed about. Kim knew the right places to strike to get a cub to laugh.
When he stopped he gasped a few breaths. Laughter could really take it out of a cub. She had called him pretty? A bright female like her self thought he was pretty.
That was something Noel probably didn't need to hear. His head swelled a little and he smiled.
"Thank you, I think so too," He smiled, then realized what he had said, " NO NO I MEANT!! I meant I think you are too!"
