[PRP] Well hello gorgeous. (Buluu and Rada)

[Izzy Makani]

The rogue lands were hot as usual and the sun above was baking all animals found out in it. Buluu was feeling that baking heat on his white and blue fur. He was in mind to find a cool spot to settle down for a bit but he was hungry and still searching for food. His last attempt in the early morning had failed miserably and almost got him kicked in the face. He would not have been looking for any food if he'd actually felt that blow but he was unconcerned about the close call. He rarely ever worried much about the troubles he had in his life. He did his best to stay on the positive side and not let storm clouds darken his day.

As he walked Buluu spotted a cloud of dust rising in the distance. He knew quickly that usually meant a herd of some kind. He just hoped it was the kind he could take down on his own. With his sights set on that cloud he picked up his pace and headed straight for the place he hoped to find himself a meal.

With the pride's troubles- all she could do now was find a way out and find new leads. Anyone whom would join the rebellion- For Emi. For kata. Meant that much closer to finding her mother. Even when she was in the roguelands- she was never truly and absolutely alone. She never knew when someone or something of the 'Nera was close by, she was literately walking on ice when speaking to others. No matter the trouble and the severity- she'd still slip her mother's name around.

JUST to find her.

But with all those worries on her plate- she needed to abovely- find food and take it to the randevou point. But her attempts were failing one after the other and when she finally attempted to get closer to really snagging game.. A young lioness with her failed few attempts riled up the herd and Rada put in to her mind- she couldn't lose this one.

It was hot. Her fur was already matting. A yelling stomach and an aching thought Abila too- wouldn't have anything to bring. Both of them couldn't fail- so when the herd ran.. So did she.

She could feel the ground glide under her, the feeling of using her speed.. It was rare that she did for prolonged periods of time but oh, did the feeling excite her. No matter how fustrated and in tune she was with her prior worries- this feeling of speed.... But then another ache to her stomach brought upon why she was chasing them in the first place.. and followed in toe with them - but she knew her energy may be depleating soon.. she she threw herself to continuously bite at their legs and yet nothing and nothing! Then the up coming rocks became the herd's demise. Having seen a few of them try dodging with close calls.

This was her chance..! Fully focused- and fully in to a tunnel vision.. Leaving dust clouds in her wake.

Buluu was moving in a full lope now. He wasn't running at full speed but he was running so he could get to the herd faster. He didn't want to lose the trail of dust but if there was dust then they were moving so he had to move quickly to even have a chance. He could see an outcropping of rocks coming up on him now and the dust seemed to be coming from among them.

He was running among the rocks within moments and only moments after that he was in the midst of running hooves but there was a problem. He was in their path and they were so riled up already that he was little more than a hurdle they had to jump over. He ducked his head and weaved out of their path. He could attempt to grab one but he was far to busy keeping himself from getting hurt by them. Wouldn't it just be his luck he would come in right in the middle of the herd and get trampled.

With the wind on her back- she sunk low to the ground and leaped in to the air. Literately looking as if she were flying through the air.. Not noticing the [ cheetah ]- that she had glided over. No- she didn't notice at all.. And as they dodged for the rocks- one came in to her path of falling.. Those claws literately sunk so far deep, that she almost had whiplash as they came tumbling down. She didn't have to cover- the body had broken her fall, and she pulled it over her before the trampling came.. It didn't take long for parts of the herd to trample the body then head of the beast.. It was a long few minutes but she closed her eyes tightly as the stomping moved the body up and down, though still out of a miracle she remained unscathed..

Until it stopped.. she happened to lift her body to see the face of the wildebeest completely in shambles.. "That could have been me..." Her voice seemed so worried.. She had also, almost nearly broke her wrists as she braced herself for the stampede but again- with just minor sores was nothing compared to what the prey had taken. Slowly she lifted her body up and right when she did, her wrists gave in to pain and made her flop on top of her game. Ears went back as she tried to catch her breath.

"That makes two- ...one of us." Shaking her head and softly chuckling. Having not quite smelled the other yet- she planned on relaxing before she would drag this thing- alone- to the destination.. which she doubt anyone was there for now.. It had been days since she was sent out. Trying to move her wrists only made her whince. "No biggy right.." Yes, she had been talking to a dead animal. But to her- it was normal to be alone and speak to herself- it was a mission occurance.

Buluu ducked and ran, dodged and jumped to get out of the gazelle's way. He took a blow to one of his back legs as a gazelle leapt over him and it's back hooves didn't clear him. That hit caused him to roll on the ground and distoriented him for a moment but he was up just before getting stepped on. He ran from there, ignoring the slight pain in his thigh, until he was on the edge of the herd and climbed up on a outcropping of rocks.

It didn't take long for the herd to clear out after he was out of the way. He watched the herd go by not even attempting to get one. He was feeling lucky to even be alive and just watching the herd that almost killed him was good enough.

After the dust cleared from the herd Buluu spotted another cheetah further away from him. He watched her climb out from under her kill and realized she must have been hurt by the way she tried to stand up but went back down. He really couldn't believe she'd survived the stampeed while under her kill. That act really impressed him but she hadn't come out completely unscathed so he knew he couldn't run off and leave her to herself.

He slowly climbed down from his perch now aware of the pain in his thigh but it wasn't a pain that was going to keep him from walking. He made his way down in her direction and called out before he got too close. "Excuse me? Are you alright?"

Oblivious, she hadn't known the other cheetah was even around before he spoke up. Which the fur on her back rose and she whipped her head around to see him and she tried to get up just as quickly- but ended up falling right in to the gazelle, then toppled over. It was, an embaresment to say the least. On herself, and the pride. Quickly she rolled on her side then limped over the dead corpse and eyed him. Protective. Her wrists were hurting so bad that it was making her quiver.. But not in fear of him.

She'd fight to the very end to defend her only meal in days.

"Fine." Making a rather serious face, though it was her most common one. Lifting her chin up and trying to look as though no pain was there- but there was.. and a lot of it. "Catch anything.." Eyeing him STILL, with a very cautiousness to her every movement. He COULD have been a spy or something- she'd never know and she'd ALWAYS be careful about that, as well as some rogue taking her food. Pfft. Let him try. Lowering her body to make herself LOOK as though she was threatening..  

[Izzy Makani]

Buluu's ears perked up in curiousity as the female toppled over the gazelle and became very defensive. He realized what she was thinking only moments after she asked if he'd caught anything. She was thinking he was going to bully her off her kill because she was hurt and couldn't defend herself.

"I'm not after your food miss. I was just concerned about you because I saw you come out from under the gazelle and you looked like you might have gotten hurt." He stated only hoping that she would relax with his words and perhaps let him help her. He could see how hard she was trying to hide the pain behind a mask on her face and he could not bring himself to leave such a beautiful girl without offering his assistance several times if he had to.

"As if I'd need help." But her wrists were seriously now becoming swollen and the pain was pulsing up her arms. Then a hiss came out of her as she retracted her paws inward a moment and stood on her hind legs. "Damn...." Looking away. "Listen... I'd SHARE." Then she looked back to him as she slowly laid back down on the hunk of gazelle under her. "If you can help me drag it to a safe place. I got a whimp to feed so no funny business." Eyeing him strongly before lifting herself up again and literately limping of how much her paws swelled.

Unscathed- for the record- she didn't get hurt and she would probably tell her twin about this in triumph. When really she probably hurt her paws bad.. And for a cheetah that could mean DEATH. Anything happening to their legs... She hoped not. Praying in her head to her mother to help her. Limping around and looking up at him. Trying to keep a bite on her lip to hold in a scream or two. It seriously was becoming worse.. Sitting back on her hind legs again to let her paws rest. "If you can't do that- you can leave."  

[Izzy Makani]

Buluu quirked a brow at the female. She was certainly a bit of a bossy betty but he scratched it off after a moment to being due to the pain she was feeling. "I can carry the gazelle." He told her as he watched her move about and wondered if she would even be able to follow. "Think you will be able to make it to where ever your wanting me to take this?" He asked not trying to be smart but concerned whether he would have to carry her and the gazelle.

Sorry a little short. I blame the tired brain.

The cheetah had to be taken back a moment, and lowered her head... He was something else that was for sure. Then lifted her chin, examining him more and finally decided he could be trusted for a SHORT amount of time. If Abila was here, she would have had the spot light to this hunk. Rada rarely thought of males- well they never really crossed her path... Her rank was FILLED with them, but she had no desire to throw herself at one, but he... was softer than them. Not muscle bound like they were.

Kindness. She took advantage of those types, even as a cub. Stealing kills from nice naive predators. Pfft. But she was... in pain, and that much he saw. Maybe he wasn't as naive as the others..

"I can keep up." Finally. "I just want to take it somewhere secure from others. I don't know these parts too well- and hunting for days... are you from around here?" Ears perched. "Preferably close by..." Looking down to her inflamed paws and sighed. Getting help from some rogue was NOT apart of her plans. Likewise, she stayed sitting til they decided to move..

"Cold water..." Saying as if half-assed to suggest it. Finally, she was assessing her injuries. She would have to not put any weight on them for some time..

When the she said she could keep up Buluu simply nodded and moved to get into position to pull the gazelle. "I do know a nice shaded place where we can put this and it should be secure." He told her and then grabbed the gazelle and began to pull it.

He only took a couple of steps before he heard her suggestion of cold water and he stopped. "Actually the place we're going has cold water not far from it but far enough that the gators won't get you." He said with a grin to her and then he grabbed the gazelle again and started off.

He pulled the gazelle in the direction the herd went and that he had come from orginally. He stopped from time to time to check on the female with him but it wasn't long till they got to the large group of bushes where he pulled the gazelle in to so that it could not be seen by the vultures.

Once he was in Buluu stopped and dropped the gazelle. "Here you are and the water is not far in that direction." Buluu said using his head to motion to his left out of the bush. "Anything else you might need help with before I depart?"

I was thinking with two more posts we might could call this fin and add it to our finished rp lists.
