Chapter 8 The Pridelands?
"Kiu! Kiu! Wake up damn it!" She shouted and pleaded with the stars, "Please! Take me not him." Her head landed on his chest, no heart beat, "No... I am sorry... Wake up please." She whispered, the sun was now on the horizon, "He's in a better place now..." She kissed him on the cheek and began to walk toward the Wastelands.
"Do that again it felt good."
Uzuri stopped dead in her tracks, "You... Were de...ad." She choked on her words, she ran back to him and began to rapidly kiss him. "If you do that again I will kill you Got it!"
"Got it, hey I love you"
"I love you too." She cried into his mane, "Now come on let me check out your wounds."
The flesh on his leg was charred but it should heal quick enough even if he would have to walk with a limp, but the same couldn't be said about Kiu's eye it had already became cloudy but it was still sensitive to light so he kept it clinched shut. "Maybe if I am lucky it will heal closed." he joked while Uzuri was examining him.
She kissed him, "Maybe I should make your other eye match." she said dragging the smooth back of her claw down his leg, he laughed nervously.
The landscape was charred and blackened by the previous nights inferno, ash rained down on the beach, the normally clear seawater was gray and soupy, and the old den was turned to glass. If you looked hard enough you could see Kreb's char broiled corpse through the ceiling. "He wanted to rule so badly that he now rules over a castle of glass." Kiu said blinking out a single tear. "Uzuri my dear, you must promise me two things."
"Anything for you." she said as she climbed the glass hill.
"Never use fire again and I mean never, the flames almost killed all of us." he said as he limped over to Uzuri.
"And the other thing?"
"Don't let your hate control you again, I attacked Kreb out of hate of what he did to you. My appearance is the perfect reminder for me." He said with an infectious confidence.
She smiled and kissed him again, "I promise, and I personally like your new scar it gives you character."
He smiled, "Now where to? The inferno chased the game away."
"Eastbound. Stelle said if I head far enough East we will find the Pridelands."
"The Pridelands are a myth." he said confused.
"Nope, my father lived there before he met my mother."
"Lead the way then, I need to get use to my new look on life." he chuckled.
