PLAINS OF ETERNAL ROARS

Chapter 2

The winds of the Distant Earths blowing, raising the powder and forming some whirlpools that move the undergrowth vigorously, and doing a mess his mane occasionally; breathing heavily to clean his nose of all the impurities he had inhaled because of the dirty air, he continued observing to his surroundings with displease… what kind of creatures deserved to live in a place like that?? Not even them, that was for sure. A silent figure arose from the shadows of the cave behind him, catching his attention for only a pair of seconds; then, he turned his look back to his surroundings.

"Xigbar and the others haven't come back yet??" It was the only words he said.

"They were back since some hours ago, but Zexion's nose caught a strange scent floating on the air, so they went back to check out everything's in order…" the dark blue furred lion with blue rebel mane behind him answered, placing himself aside of the other beast, who let out another heavy breath as response "Do you need them for something? You know we can send the others or I can take care of anything by myself if you order it to, Xemnas…"

"There's nothing I need right know, except for their report and the needing of know they're all right… you know we cannot given ourselves the luxury of lose any member of our clan, Saix…" said the big feline, as he turned his head to face the bright yellow eyes of the other one, as he contemplated the scar with shape of x across his face again, remembering him the time when the blue haired lion had been hurt in a fight some years ago.

"Think they'll find something?"

"If Zexion's nose made them to go back and check out, then they'll do it… he never fails…"

"Yeah, I bet he does n--- They're back, Xemnas…" Both lions stood up of their positions when they saw the three figures at the distance, walking slowly but firmly towards them. Saix followed them with the look, but his glance was focused to the big brown lion "Lexeaus is carrying something… I guess Zexion was right, after all…"

"I bet he was…" Hissed Xemnas, looking at the trio who finally had arrived; a strange humor filled his nose, making him to put a gesture of displeasure "Looks like you were over busy, gentlemen… how was everything?"

"Fine… just like always, the problem was Hyenas trespassing into our territory…" answered Xaldin with his sharply voice "However, there was something different this time, look what we found!" As long as he said that, Lexaeus let fell down the cub in front of Xenmas, who looked at it with interest.

"The hyenas were about to kill the 'lil guy, but then we began to attack them to make them go out of our lands, and well… you can guess the rest of the story…" the Superior, just like sometimes Xenmas was call for the others because of being the lider of the clan, kept looking at the boy laying on the ground, Tilting his head a bit to make his platinum bangs to be out of his sight "So, what do you say? Xaldin insisted in kill him, but Lexeaus and I thought it could be better to ask you before if you wanted him… you know, into the clan…"

"This cub is bigger enough to recognize where his own clan is, and besides, if you had to rescue him of the Hyenas, this one is a pain on the ass for sure! We don't need stupid or useless brats in our clan, am I right, Superior?…" Saix complained about it, but when he didn't hear a signal of approbation, he turned to see the platinum haired lion, who remained in silence, thoughtful.

"So, Great Boss… what we gonna do with this one?"

"Mmmmmmmmmmmm…. There's nothing much to do about it… for now, we're gonna wait until he wakes up… I guess it could be of help to know where does he come from…" Answered the big lion, smirking, as the other ones began to laugh slightly when they got the point of Xenmas' idea "Take them into de cave, there's a meeting we need to do…"

Darkness was all he could see; nothing was there, not even a single insect, not even a single plant… however, despite the fact he was feeling dizzy and his head was hurting really bad, he barely could hear a small voice calling a word, repeating it more and more: ROXAS. Roxas??? What the hell was that?? He couldn't remember it. He really wanted find out what was happening.

"He moved".

Another soft voice spoke, different of the deep first one; he tried to stand up, but it didn't work… he didn't even feel his limbs!! Groaning, he tried again, but it was useless.

"He moved again!! He actually did it!!!"

A third voice spoke; this time, it was a deeper one, even more than the first voice. "What the hell is going on?" he thought, beginning to be a little scared because of not being able to see or do anything. Realizing that trying to get up was something useless after a third attempt, Roxas finally give up, opening his eyes heavily after a pair of seconds, his vision blurry at the first moments, but it got it clearer eventually with the pass of time; when his eyes were adjusted to the light, the first things he saw were two felines standing in front of him, and looking at him with interest.

"Hey, look at that!! He finally woke up!!!" Said a young blond lioness, her fur forming a large bang from one of the sides of her face, the one almost looking like a mane.

"Ha, of course he did it!!! Didn't I told ya he would??! Nobody takes me for serious!! That's unfair!!" this time, it was the lion besides the young one who spoke; the cub stared at him for a moments, realizing that the light brown furred feline definitely was not a cub anymore: the strong limbs supporting his thin but not small body and the medium blond mane in a Mohawked shape over his head and part of his neck were the proves of that.

"That's because you're never serious!!"

"Now you're just playing rude!!!" said with indignation in his voice again the lion. The cub stared at them with a confusing look… who were they?? Feeling a suddenly sensation of nauseas, he dropped his head again, growling slightly as his ears went down "Hey kiddo, you're awright?"

"Not at all… I'm feeling dizzy…"

"I bet you hit your head against something really hard or something like that 'cuz you were unconscious for almost 3 days!! We thought maybe you wouldn't wake up for sure!!" the blond lion just made another gesture of pain, as he put his front members on his head, like if doing that would stop the pain.

"I guess he's already dizzy with his own pain, cut the chatting already!!" the lioness grumbled a little at the Mohawked feline, then she turned to see Roxas – Sorry about it, he get excited easily all the time… My name is Naminé, and this one is Demyx… who are you?" The girl's question resounded into Roxas' head; he couldn't remember anything, how he was going to know which his name was?? Suddenly, the echos of the first voice since he had awaken came back to him, remembering the word it had been saying.

"…I guess… it's Roxas…"

"I guess?? What does suppose to mean that??" Asked Demyx with a confused look, staring at him.

"My head it's all a mess… I… I can't remember anything…" the cub said with an painful gesture. Naminé then let out a sigh after a pair of seconds.

"Well, I think the best we can do now, it's to let you rest a little more… try to recover yourself the better you can, so we can introduce you to the others, okay? Now we're leaving, but we'll be back for a while… Nice to meet you, Roxas…" and with that, she began to walk towards where the exit of the cave should be, being followed for Demyx immediately.

The blonde lion lowered his head one more time to let it rest on his front limbs; what Naminé wanted to say with the others? There were more lions besides them in that place?? What was the place where he was in??? He didn't know anything of that, but at that point, the more insistent question in his head, was the base of all the others: What had happened, and why he was there???
