Chapter 24: reunited
Minu ran, stretching his limbs so far out so he ran full speed. He didn't know where he was going, or who he was going to get, he just had to find someone to help. his mind raced as he ran, so much was happening all at once. He growled, a rush of rage flowing through his body. Then he thought--Sukina. Surley she and Vayin could help? He sighed and ran toward where Sukina was staying. He reached the lnads she was in, after sniffing for her scent. The lionesses there started growling at the introuder, but Minu ignored it.
'Sukina? Sukina where are you?!' he bellowed.
'What are you doind here?' a nearby lioness growled.
'Not now, I need to find Sukina!'
'We don't like introuders!' another lioness said.
'Please!! You have to trust me!' But the lionesses weren't listening; they growled and tried to tackle Minu, but he fought them off; not as to hurt them, just to defend himself. The lionesses weren't giving up, they attacked again, one biting Minu's ear, another swiping at his shouler, and another slashing his mane, a few strands of brown mane falling to the ground. The lioness who bit his ear pinned him and snarled.
'Now what are you doing here?' she demanded.
'MINU?!' came Vayin's voice. He had obviously heard the fight and smelt Minu nearby. The lioness pinning him looked at Vayin and slowly let Minu get up. He glared at her and shook himself. 'Minu, what are you doing here?' Vayin asked.
'It's...it's Heira! She was attacked by the Out Landers and, and she's hurt real bad! Please, we need help!'
'Who's Heira?'
'She's Kanami's mother and my foster mother! Please Vayin, we need you and Sukina and anyone else who is willing to help! Please...' Minu hung his head, a few tears falling to the ground. Vayin pricked his ears up.
'Foadi,' Vayin said to the lioness who had pinned Minu, 'go and get Sukina and Marla. Everyone else, follow Minu!' Foadi nodded adn ran off. Minu nodded at Vayin.
'Thank you Vayin.'
'Let's not waste time talking, now let's go!' Vayin said, sprinting off after Minu when he started to run.
'Mum, it's gonna be ok...' Kanami whispered. But Heira's breathing was becoming shallow, and her eyes kept opening and closing. Kanami felt her heart braking; more tears fell to the ground. She couldn't bare to see her mother in so much pain. She had aleady lost her father, Juramu, whome she had never even know, she couldn't handle it if she lost her mother aswell...she just couldn't. There was the soft padding of many paws and Kanami turned and saw Vayin, Minu, Sukina, Marla, and the 3 other lionesses, including Foadi coming toward them. Kanami broke down again. As Vayin, Minu, and Foadi helped Heira, Sukina, Marla and the other two lionesses comforted Kanami.
'We just came to ask her about something and she was lying there...' Kanami whimpered. Marla put a paw on Kanami's shoulder.
'Did she say exactly who her attackers were?' Sukina asked. Kanami nodded and gulped.
'Six lionesses, she said, six of them took a wilderbeast from her...and one of them had a notch in one ear.' Sukina gasped, a horrified look appeard on her face. Her eyes grew wide with shock.
'Zira...' she whispered. Marla looked at her.
'Oh yeah...she was the one who almost killed you...wasn't she?' she said. Sukina nodded and hung her head. Then she walked over to Kanami and nuzzled her.
'Your mother will be ok...if Minu and I survived her as cubs, then she'll be alright...' she said softly as she pulled away. Kanami shifted one shoulder.
'I dunno...there was only one lioness who attacked you two...my mother was attacked by all six!' Sukina pinned her ears. Heira had to be alright.
Tirria hadn't gone back home to the Pride Lands since she had run off. She didn't intend to go back just yet, but knew she had to. She jumped of the rock she was standing on and ran off to the border of the Pride Lands. Shre past them, entering a new territory, not the Out Lands. She sniffed the air...she could smell blood. Someone had been attacked...she sniffed again...someone had been attacked by the Out Landers! She growled; she couldn't let anyone suffer from an Out Lander, even if she didn't know them. She followed the scent of the blood, wanting to help and have a good enough excuse for getting revenge on Zira...
Kanami was shaking. She let a few more tears run down her face. Minu sighed and walked over. 'We are doing all we can for her, Kanami,' he said gently. Kanami sighed.
'I know...' Sukina shuffled a paw uncomfortably.
'How about we go to the lake and get a drink?' she asked. Kanami nodded.
'I'll come with you,' Minu said. All three of them went to the lake. A few minutes passed and Vayin lifted his head up and sniffed. He looked to see a golden lioness with a brown tuft of fur on her head walking toward them.
'Excuse me...can I help at all...?' she asked nervously.
'Who are you?' Vayin and Marla asked.
'My name's Tirria,' she explained, 'I could smell Out Landers and wondered if I could help? My past with them is dark, and...well...I'd just like to help.' Marla stared at Tirria in open mouth shock.
'Tirria..?' she asked.
'Yeah, Tirria.' Tirria replied, slightly confused. Marla and Vayin exchanged glances.
'Not the Tirria we've heard so much about?' Vayin asked. Tirria raised an eyebrow.
'I'm sorry, but I...' She stopped talking when she saw two lionesses and a lion walking over to them. Sukina sighed adn walked over to Marla.
'jeeze, what's up Marla?' Then she saw the golden lioness staring at them both.
'Um, are guys ok..?' Minu asked walking over to them. Tirria was really confused. She over-looked the lion, looked at his green eyes, his brown mane...and then her eyes fell upon the red and white marking on his shoulder. Her mouth fell open as she looked from the lion to the lioness.
'Oh my...oh my god!' she whispered. Minu and Sukina exchanged glances. 'Your alive!!' She exclaimed. Sukina and Minu finally realized. Their eyes grew wide. Minu gasped and Sukina whispered softly,
'Tirria...'
