The heat of the morning sun beat down upon the young prince's face as he awoke in the large termite mound where the pride resided, and was he ever in a cranky mood. Scowling around at the rest of the sleeping pride members, he opened his mouth and shouted at the top of his lungs, "I'M HUNGRY!" thinking that somebody would at least wake up and serve him some breakfast. Seeing as that didn't work, Chafua stomped over towards his mother and tugged on her ear as hard as he could. "Mommy!" he replied. "Nobody's getting me my breakfast." he stated pouting slightly while sitting on the ground. Seeing as nobody was stirring, Chafua let out an ear piercing screech that would probably awake the entire pride.

Hasira was sleeping calmly, until she felt something bite into her ear, and tug it-she opened her eyes with an irritated expression on her face-Of course, who else then her brat would do that? Oh, why was she granted such a burden, such an excuse for a cub? She let out a low growl at her son, Chafua, who was now screeching as if the world was ending "What now!?" She sat up, giving him a glare, a few frightened insects flying from where they nested in the mound's rocky surface.

"I'm hungry..." he said as he turned his head up towards his mother, a pouty expression crossing his maw. His stomach rumbled and gurgled loudly. "Nobody's getting me break-" the cub's sentence was quickly cut off because a landing termite had caught his eye. Stalking closer to it he attempted to pounce but it flew away, Chafua began to quickly pursue it, fumbling over other pride members as they slept. "Come back!" he cried as he chased after it.

She watched him with an annoyed expression as Chafua ran off to whatever he was chasing. She lied back down, watching him at it for a few seconds, and then told one dreary-eyed lioness to go off and get something for Chafua. As the lioness left, she returned to watching him scamper around the room, while thinking over how much she despised being his mother. How did he ever become this way? Whatever made him become a dirty little whelp, she knew she didn't take part...He gets more then he deserves, she thought bitterly. How will he ever learn to become a fighter, if he does nothing more then grow fat and lazy as a slug?

Ajizi woke up slowly while looking around, his vision still blurry. "Mama? What's going on?" he yawned, his small chocolate brown tuft of hair an absolute mess from rolling around in his sleep. His vision started to clear up a bit more and he could see his older brother,Chafua, making a racket. "Again?" he muttered to himself as he laid back down and covered his ears with his paws and squinted his eyes shut.

He groaned as he bent over, his back and legs sore from a night of unlucky hunting. He laid his scrawny catch on the ground and lowered himself carefully, wincing as his muscles tightened and relaxed. Once in position, one paw under his catch and the other holding it down with his sharpened claws, he ripped off chunks of meat and fur and swallowed, too famished to chew. After 8 or 9 gulps of meat, all that was left was bone. He kicked the remains aside and flopped down in the scarce shadow of a dead tree. His sides were skinny and his mane's luster was covered in dry dirt. The fur on his underbelly was caked with dried mud from the swamp.
Just another day in the Badlands. But he didn't mind. He knew that what hurt him only made him stronger.
With so much hurt, one can only be so strong.
The buzzing of the termite hills close by and Chafua kept him from sleep, so he just sat there, still as a corpse. Sometimes that's what he dreamed of being.

Chafua continued to run around not keeping watch where he was running until he ran smack dab into Nharo. Tumbling onto his back he peered up quickly before rolling over and getting into a combat position. "Why'd you bump into me?!" he demanded, his tail flicking back and forth.

Hasira turned to her second son as she heard his voice. Yet another woken to the not-so-welcoming antics of the heir, who seemed to have the same thoughts she had concerning concerning Chafua. She sighed, still feeling drowsy, the sun just beginning to feel as hot as she was accustomed, it's quickly-warming sunlight resting on her back. Her ear twitched as she heard the collision between Chafua and some other member of the pride, scattering dust into the air around them, but she ignored it, her mind on something great, more important then what's happening around her.

Ajizi rose up and ran behind Hasira and laid down. "I dont like it when he's loud like that..." he muttered to himself while placing his head on his paws and snuggling closer to his mother. As the noises got louder and louder to him Ajizi stood up and ran out of the cave trying to at least find someplace nice and quiet. Scampering behind a large termite mound he sat down and sighed. "Ahh....that's better." he mused as he laid down and tried to catch some sleep.

Chafua rammed into his side and bounced onto his back, after which he rolled over and growled, "Why'd you bump into me?"
He sighed, in no mood to have a petty argument with the child. He rolled onto his feet and shook his coat. "Sorry." He wasn't really, and his tone was cold and sharp. Yawning, she began to lick some blood from a torn claw he had ripped while hunting.

Chafua pouted. "No you're not...you dont sound sorry..." he replied while staring up at the male before running into Nharo's line of vision. "Hey! I'm talking to you!" he said trying to swipe at him with a clawed pay so he'd pay attention.
