A full belly had Azrael happy and content, and he was doing his best to stay awake this afternoon. The sun was high in the sky, making his skin hot. This was one of the days
that he was thankful for such a light colored pelt. He felt sorry for Rashida in this kind of heat. He opened his golden e yes, and looked at the sugar glider looking female. She
was resting in the shade of a large tree, panting but obviously content. She had a bone being held by her paws, and she was gnawing on it happily. When she saw him looking at her, she
smiled, and lifted her head. Her smile was soft, something that Azrael loved the most about her. Her soft nature made her so beautiful to him.. She was pure, and beautiful. He smiled back,
and stood to go sit in the cool of the shade with her. Why hadnt he thought of that before?
"How are you doing, my sweet?" He asked, approaching her and nuzzling into her neck. He could feel her purr vibrate against his muzzle, and he too began purring. She was his everything, and
he was her everything. He was almost sure they couldnt ever be happier. Well, other than getting to their new pridelands once they found it! He was terribly excited, though Rashi had been more
excited by a longshot.
"Im good," she replied, batting at his shoulder with her paw gently, a single claw tracing down his shoulder.
"Its a hot morning, Ill be happy when the sun goes down for hte night." SHe smiled.

Abhay had slipped away from her parents, not hard since she was fast and they'd been sleeping. She bounded along swiftly her long legs stretching and bunching
as her strong hindquarters propelled her forwards. She enoyed the wind in her face, making her ears bounce around. She laughed as she moved, enjoying every stride
that took her further away, she didn't stray too far away so that she couldn't find her way back but it was far enough for a young hare to feel like they were free.
She looked up at the wild blue sky as she ran, not really looking where she was going now....until she almost bumped into a pair of lions. *oops!* she thought to herself
and tensed, ready to run rings around them if they tried to make a grab for her. Abhay's little heart was fluttering wildly in her chest,
her lungs were working hard after her flat out running but she attempted to keep her breathing to a steady rhythm.

The rabbit collided with Azraels leg, and he looked down at it, obviously perplexed. Weren't rabbits fearful of lions? Or shouldnt they be? He had no intention of eating the
little bunny though, and merely lowered his head to be on her level. She was so tiny, he assumed she was a youngster. Hares tended to be a bit bigger than her. He used his paw, to help
lift her back off the earth so she wouldnt be in a little heap near his leg. She was shaking so badly, he felt sure she'd just lie there shivering until he had helped her. His face took
a look of compassion, and he looked at Rashida.
His mate, he was unsurprised to see, was already standing and making her way to the poor creature. Her eyes were soft. Her belly was full, and she had no desire to make the youngster her
next meal. Though she wouldnt eat a baby hare anyway.. It was bad karma to eat baby animals. She smiled, laying on her belly in front of the bunny.
"Are you okay, sweetheart?" She asked, cocking her head and gazing at the little purple and black creature. She could hear her heart beating wildly in her chest. Poor dear..
"Shh..No need to fear, we wont hurt you, will be Az?" She asked, looking up at Azrael to help assure the little creature that she'd be safe.
Azrael nodded, not intending to offend his mate over something so trivial. Especially when he had no intentions of eating her anyway. Though he wasnt against it, should his belly have been
growling. But the rabbit was safe.. he had just eaten.

Abhay tried to jump away as the big lion brought his paw up but her muscles had frozen in fear,
While she might normally have run, the sight of the two gigantic creatures looming over her was terrifying
to the youngster. Her mind wanted to run but her body said otherwise.
Then the smaller of the giants lay on her belly, looking at Abhay and the young hare was confused,
why weren't they trying to eat her already, her parents had taught her about lions and other such predators
but these two were different the seemed calmer. She cocked her head to the side, her long ears raising up.
"You......You're not going to eat me?" she asked, trying to force her body to obey her mind.

Rashida smiled, and giggled as if the little hare was way off on Rashidas intentions. She shook her head, her head fluff falling in her eyes. She blew upwards, and blew it out of her
eyes and then looked back down at her. She tried to make her movements slow, deliberate, so as to not have the poor thing running for her life, or dying from fear. She had seen the latter
happen before. She glanced at Azrael, hoping he didnt do anything to scare her. She liked hares. She wasnt a fan of the way they tasted really, but they were rather interesting if you got
the chance to stop and talk to one.
Azrael shook his head, his black mane shaking with him. It seemed to be neatly placed, until he shook his head. His mane instantly became a mess of hair and it caused Rashida to chuckle as
she watched him. Except her eyes went back to Abhay.
"Im Rashida, this is Azrael. Im not a big hare eater." She said reassuringly. She wondered just why this little one was all on her own. That was dangerous, and ultimately, a suicidal adventure.
Rashida may have not been into the meat, and Azrael may have just eaten, but others werent so kind, or full. She gave a look of concern, her ears lying back.
"Careful Rashida. Dont overanalyze this." He said, hoping she didnt ask to adopt the hare or something. He didnt put it past her, but god he didnt know if he could keep from eating a lunchable while
Rashida was away if he was hungry enough!

Abhay tried to hold back an amused smiled as the female laughed and shook her head, the fluff going in the lioness' eyes was rather funny really,
especially when she blew it out of her face, she'd made a rasping noise that made the yong hare thing of gas after a good meal.
Slowly her breathing was becoming calmer and her heard didn't thud in her chest quite as hard. She looked between the two lions that seemed
uninterested in eating her and she started filling with that bravado only young ones could. She sat up when the male shook his head,
his mane looked all silly, messy like that and she did actually giggle a little bit.
She blinked up at the lioness and couldn't really believe her ears, the female was introducing herself and her mate? Even to Abhay it was obvious
that these two were mates, the looks of affection and the assumptions about each other reminded her of her own parents, Who were possibly getting
worried by now. "R...Rashida and Azrael?" she repeated nervously when the male spoke to Rashida about overanalyzing things. "I'm Abhay, pleased to meet you"
she said quickly, after all, you couldn't eat someone you'd been introduced to....surely?

Azrael yawned, his dissinterest with such a rabbit evident. He nuzzled his mate, and looked at the rabbit once more beforenodding his head.
He hoped that the little one would see tha the was ready to head back to his den and sleep. A lazy lion, he rarely liked being awake after having
had such a good meal.
"Well Abhay.. It was a pleasure. Now if you'll excuse me.." He said, and touched his mates shoulder with his paw.
"Ill be in the den, dont be too long, sweets." He responded, and sauntered off, his tail swaying to and fro as he moved. His den wasnt too far off
thank god, because he felt like he was going to crash right now!
Rashida smiled, nodded to her mate and turned her attention back to the female bunny. She thought she was adorable, and she just wanted to snuggle her.
However she didnt and it made her feel a soft tinge of sadness. She wanted to cuddle her own cubs. Oh well..One day.
"Pleased to meet you, Abhay."

Abhay grinned as the male ignored her giggling at him but frowned when he went away. "Bye" she called after him.
She looked up at Rashida, "Did i say something?" she asked, her young mind feeling slightly hurt that the male would rather
go off and sleep than stay and talk to her.
Shrugging off the feeling just as quickly as it had come Abhay smiled up at the lioness, and frowned again, the look
on her face reminded the young hare of her own mother "Hey ... Mrs Rashida? are you ok?" she asked, moving closer.

Rashida shook her head, patting the little hare with a paw gently, oh so gently. She didnt want to accidently hurt her, shed never forgive herself!
"You havent done anything dear, You'll have to excuse him. We just had a good meal, and his belly runs him most times. Once he eats, he passes out for
hours!" She joked, and thought about her honey's quirks. She loved him for being so odd. He was such a closed off male, it was heartbreaking..
He had been abused as a cub, and had been raised to believe he was nothing..A nobody and that he was just a waste of breath. He had been believing that
until he met her.. She wouldnt allow him to dwell on thoughts like that.
"Oh Im fine, Princess. Probably just a bit tired myself. After taking down that prey, it definitely wears you out." She didnt want to mention her desires of
cubs to Abhay, and instead tried changing the subject.
"Wont your momma be afraid if youre gone so long, darling?" She asked curiously.

Abhay ducked her head as Rashida's paw came down to pat her, just like any embarrassed youngster would.
"oh, okay ... my daddy gets like that when he's stuffed on sweet grasses" she giggled. She yawned herself
as her running and the adrenaline was fading fast from her system.
her eyes went a tiny bit wild when the lioness talked of rbinging down prey, knowing full well what she might
have become had the pair not already eaten. "Momma? Nah she won't worry til the sun gets lower down" she said,
most likely lying but still she'd go home when she was ready. That was, until her ears twitched to the sound
of her mother calling her. "Oops.. i'm going to have to go, it was nice to meetcha mrs Rashida, hope Mr Azrel doesn't get a bellyache" she said before taking off in the direction of where she could hear her mother calling.
