This young, there was only so much to preoccupy Shula's wandering mind. She knew something was going on, but keeping underfoot only got her scolded by the adults. "Go play" they told her, so she did. From afar, she spotted her sister, staring out at -- well, she didn't know. But staring.
Moto, as Shula was prone to calling her, wasn't going to get the upperhand on her, no sir. She kept low and quiet, took slow strides toward the other cub. When the moment was right, she launched her "attack".
Shula sprang through the air and tried to pounce.

Mat grinned down at her sister as she pinned her to the ground, paws square on her chest to make sure she couldn't get up. "Oh, yes I do! I got yo- hey!"
Strong little legs started to kick, and it was all Mat could do to hang on for dear life. She collapsed on top of her sister, trying to keep her weight centered, but it was a loosing battle. Finally Shula got a good hold with one foot and tossed Mat off, the darker cub sprawling out on in the dirt a few feet away, laughing.
"That was fun!" she said as she got to her feet, running back over to her sister. "Do it again!" The fight completely gone from her mind, she hovered over her sister's back paws, ready to launch herself into the air again. "Push really hard and I'll jump, too! I wanna fly like the birds!"

Mat crouched a bit lower this time as Shula got ready. This was going to be awesome, she could tell. She dug her little claws into the ground as her sister counted down, and on 'go' she jumped. Shula's feet pushed her further into the air and she flew quite a distance before landing heavily on her paws.
"Whoa!" she said with a laugh, shaking out her stinging feet as she glanced back at her sister. "That was awesome! Oh man I was like a bird!" She grinned and ran back to her sister, tackling her to the ground with a laugh. "You next! Go on, get up," she insisted, even though she had been the one to put her back on the ground.
She flopped over onto her back, kicking Shula's side lightly with a back foot to prod her into position. "And you've got wings, so maybe you'll go even further!" she pointed out, pawing at her sister's back and the markings there.

Mat watched her sister soar through the air, letting out a whoop of delight. She went even further than she had gone! Higher, too! She rolled onto her feet just as Shula landed heavily, but didn't notice. She was prancing around in circles, laughing and wiggling her bum in celebration. They had an amazing new game to play! They should make marks in the dirt where they landed and see who really could go the furthest.
She finally glanced over her shoulder when she realized her sister wasn't celebrating with her. The posture her sister had taken and the little sniffles that reached her ears caused the grin to leave her face, and she ran over to Shula's side. There was a small line of blood on her face, and instantly her stomach tightened.
"Oh no! It's okay, Shula," she said quietly, bumping her head against her sister's. "It's just a little cut. Don't worry! Here, I can fix it." She swatted at her sister's paw to get it away from her nose, inspecting the cut. There was a bit of dirt in it, but nothing a skilled tongue couldn't handle. "Hold still, okay?"
