Jamaa growled as the he was taken away from Dafina. He didn't understand the entire event. Why did Dafina hate him so much? Was it because he loved Temari or as he called her "Peaches"? How did Topas find him, especially underground?! And Goma....what was with him?
To his right was Homu Goma'ota, the nafarious jackal who always caused him trouble one way or another. He was always around somewhere if Jamaa was alone OR with Temari. Why does he torment him so much? But....he protected him back there, he protected him from the two dogs from killing each other.
"Goma...why are you...-cough-....here?" he asked, Dafina's neck bite still affecting him. Still a little blood dribbled from it and from all the lesser open wounds.
To his left was the little accented ratel, Topas. Last time he seen him was when he said he had other things to do than hang out with him. However, from Jamaa's resources it would seem that the little black butt found himself a lovely mate. However, how and why did he come to Jamaa?
"And you, why are you here?" he growled. Overall, the older, taller animal wasn't very happy with either of these two at the moment.

Homu Goma'ota was walking quietly next to Jamaa with a confused, baffled expression while he looked at his feet as he walked. Jamaa asked him a question that he almost missed. It was somewhere along the lines of asking why he was there.
The jackal grinned. "Can't let ya, die now. I perfer to have my friends alive rather ripped to shreds to a stupid matter." he laughed with a triumphant grin. Did he just say friends? Who was he to say something to the dog who he tormented and manipulated with?
"Besides, I've been looking for you for so long. Now that I have and given you that message, I got nothing much to do now. So I pretty much just wander around and knowing you, you are too." he walked with a sort of higher stature.
"Just stay away from that mutt. Got it memorized?"

Topas stiffened.
"Er...well....I came lookin' fer ya and well, I was kinda hoping to ask ya somethin'." he said with a very weak almost lying tone. "But, it not the time fer dat."
The black ratel grinned, "If it weren't fer me, you'd be dead!" he hasn't changed much....
His violet orbs shifted to the svelte jackal that he and Jamaa knew well....well enough to stay clear of. The jackal responded to Jamaa's question and he used the word "friends". Does he mean Jamaa and him? Or Jamaa and Temari? Who was he talking about? The ratel's small attention span grew short.
"Wot are ya talkin' about you darn desert dwelling puppeh?!" he growled.

Jamaa heard Goma's answer and turned his head to Topas. Then realizing what Goma said he jerked back.
"What did you call Jamaa?!" he growled. "Friend? Why should I consider you a friend when all you do is harass us!" to Jamaa this ratel is lower than hyenas, other than Yakuti, a lowlife scoundrel who manipulates others to get what he wants, selfish little.....
"Why did you both to even help, all you care about is yourself. Why don't you go off and find a mate and leave us alone!" he roared....in a sense. His eyes burned with anger.

Goma smirked as if his comments didn't even matter.
"Well, Jamaa, I got no one else, heck I am not from this part of this continent." his ears swirved back and his tail dropped slightly, this was a first. "I never had friends, well....ones that would consider me one. Since I was born I was taught to trick, manipulate, and do whatever was needed to get by. My species was worshipped among gods for our way of living. That is....until they disowned us for that very reason." he frowned and his posture lowered even more.
"Some animals don't me very much. I guess you know why....they even say I don't even have a heart....sometimes I feel the same way." now his ears laid flat and his tail between his legs.
"I'm just looking for someone."

Topas's eyed the submitted jackal with bewilderment. What was he rambling about? From the vindictive jackal to a cowering fool.....or was this another of his tricks?
"Ay, what are ya up to...?" he growled. "Do ya expect us to believe ya?" he asked with a hint of threat. To Topas, this Goma was worse than what Jamaa thought of him as. He loathed and distasted him. Overall, he hated him.
"And why are ya still followin' us?"

Jamaa abrutly stopped and sat down. He cocked his head and his right ear dipped. It was a strange posture. It was usually seen in a young canine species that was baffled and confused. But this was Jamaa.
"Does Topas have somethin' against Goma?" he asked. Also strange. "He explained himself, I'm willing to be his friend." when Jamaa said that, Goma gasp and opened his mouth. "Only if you stop harassing me and my other friends." he growled. Relucatantly, the svelte jackal agreed.
"Topas?"

"Really, Jamaa? Are you serious?!" he shouted estacically. He finally has a friend that goes both ways, Goma to Jamaa and Jamaa to Goma. He was happy that he has someone who they would call their friend! He didn't care what the conditions where, but he finally has one!
Goma smiled happily, restraining himself from jumping around. "Thank you, Jamaa!" he was starting to humiliate himself.

"Gah!" Topas snarled. "Ya got to be kiddin' me, Jamaa. Him, this guy here, ya friend?!" he questioned, pointing at Goma as he spoke.
Jamaa looked somewhat happy, heck Goma was over the edge of happiness and into complete bliss. "Oh, you hafta be kiddin' me. Alrigh' alrigh', as long as he stops harrasin' everyone, y'hear?" he proded Goma as he stared into his eyes with anger.
"Cor Blimely. What are ya thinkin', laddie?"

Jamaa gave a weak smile to Topas, he wasn't really happy with all this, huh? Maybe this is for the better. Goma would stop harrasing everyone and he will be easier to find.....maybe.
"Well, Jamaa is heading back to the packlands. You two go back, go back to where you came from, okay?" he rose to his feet and limped passed them. "Jamaa needs rest, Jamaa'll see you two sometime soon." he smiled and continued back to the Mpinzani packlands, leaving the jackal and ratel alone.

Goma was so happy, actually too happy. He complete disregarded Topas' comment, hey he didn't even hear it. Goma nodded and smiled back at Jamaa as he left.
"See you soon, Jamaa." he called out. This was good. Goma has two friends now that he can depend on, well depend on Jamaa anyways.
Then it hit him, he didn't have a place to stay. Hm....maybe Topas will let me stay with him.
"Topas....could I stay with you tonight?" his eyes grew big and his maw twisted to a frown known as the puppy-dog pout. "Please?"

What a pain in the neck. Jamaa left him alone with the damned jackal. The ratel growled and glared at the wild dog. Had he just ask him to spend the night with him?
"What are you talkin' about you bloody jackal?!" he cried. "Neva will you sleep anywhere near me!" he shouted. "Why don't ya go back to where you came from?"

"I-I don't have a place to go back to...." he whispered. "If you really feel that way then I will find someplace to spend the night." his happy-go-lucky mood desipated and he returned to his moppy self.
Goma turned around and began to retreat, defeated.

Topas sighed. Maybe he was slightly too harsh on the jackal.
"Alrigh', how about I help ya out tonight." he caved in as Goma's good mood returned. "Hey, don't ya get any ideas, laddie. You and I are gonna be diggin' a den fer ya tonight." he said.
He started past him, leading the way to the new den sight. Topas was a very good digger and he knew the best places to do it. If he did it correctly, it would be adopted by another animal when he makes another one.
"Well, come on, laddie, I ain't got all night, y'know."

Goma smiled his usual sinister, plotting one. At least this way the jackal will have a place where he can station himself for easy locating and well....a place he can stay.
"Thank you so much for this, Topas. I'll have to pay you back sometime. I promise." he smiled and then said, "Got it memorized?"
The two traversed the great Pride Lands to a specific spot. An rockmound area where many rocks pointed from it in every direction. It looked like a fun house. Pointed rocks pointed this way and then split off in another.
"Well then, let's get started." ((Refrenceto Castle Oblivion))
