 Lakonale was lounging in a tree high up from dangers of other predators. She had learned over time that trees sometimes became a leopards best friend. Even eating was better to be done in a tree. As a lone leopard, other predators that traveled in groups often stole her food if she stayed on the ground. Her tail swayed back and forth, hanging below her. She was content at the moment. There was not much thought going on in her head. The moon was high this night and a cool breeze rustled the leaves.
It wasn't long before a lion passed right under her. Her eyes were only half open so it took awhile for her to recognize the coat and patterns. She felt herself smile. It was Drakma. She had not seen him in so long it seemed. This opportunity to speak with him again would not be wasted. Maybe she'd even be attractive to him now that she was an adult. Of course, he had never actually seen her or she was sure he hadn't. Maybe he had turned around while she had slept. All she knew as that he had disappeared before she woke up.
She called down from her perch. "Hey Drakma! Do you remember me?" It was a test to see if he could tell who she was by her voice.

As usual he was sulking, at his favorite day of the day - nighttime. Lost in his thoughts, he had ended up here, where ever here was. He had no idea, truthfully he wasn't all that concerned either. He had a knack for always ending up exactly where he was meant to be. The night had quite a bit of humidity in it, and as a result the poor male's mane was frizzing out in a million places. It was annoying as hell, but he couldn't do much about it. Except complain! But there wasn't really anyone he could complain to, so that idea was out as well.
Grumbling he reached a paw up to scratch at his mane. That's when he heard the voice - That voice. He knew it, though it sounded a bit more refined than it had so long ago. The sound of it let his blood run cold. Mostly because it had come out of nowhere, but also partly because someone had actually called out to him. Now that was rare. He didn't usually make much of an impression on those he met, simply ignoring them and going on with his business. But this one, this one had been different. He'd been able to speak to her freely, even offer her advice! Of course he remembered her!
His mouth curled up in a small grin as he twisted his head in every direction trying to catch a glimpse of her. Of course, he had no idea what he was looking for, he'd never actually seen her. As he looked, he saw nothing, simply the lingering echo of her loud yell.
"Ah do I hear the familiar voice of Lakonale? What a sound for sore ears.!" He called back, allowing his eagerness to show through his voice.

Lakonale wanted to roar with joy but she held it in. He had actually remembered just her voice! She was overjoyed that he could recognize her. Luckily her voice hadn't changed too much as she had grown fully into an adult. He looked good, as if he hadn't changed much at all since they first met. His advice that one night had been the voice in her head when things had gotten rough. She wouldn't be the leopard she was today if it weren't for him.
Her laughter rang out from the tree she was in when she realized he didn't know where she was. Of course, he hadn't looked up yet. That probably meant that he didn't know what she looked like. Otherwise he might have thought to look up a tree for a leopard. "Up here." She called down to him, the happiness clear in her voice. "You're looking well."

Her words echoed around him, and in confusion he looked up into the trees. Not really sure what he was looking for, most lions didn't like to climb trees. As he glanced up and allowed his eyes to adjust to the night he finally made out the form of a leopard. He could feel a growl low in his throat, but stifled back. He wasn't really sure what was going on here. Where was Lakonale? Did this filthy leopardess have her hostage?
"Heh, you've got jokes I see." He tried to force a friendly laugh, continuing to look around for the familiar voice he had heard. But all that his eyes could find were hers. A shudder ran down his spine, and his mouth went dry.
"S-Seriously where is she?"
