Ashur walked quickly back to the Watch, burning hot. It was moments like these where he almost wished he didn't have such a thing, dark mane, but at the same time, he supposed it was protecting him from the harsh rays as well. Still, what he wouldn't do for just a chance to jump into the Watering Holes for a minute.
But first thing's first. The pride. He quickly started making the rounds, checking to make sure everyone was fine. It seemed things had gone alright while he was gone. He sighed in relief and sat down in the shade of a particularly large rock, deciding to rest for a moment. He wouldn't be laying on top of his rock today.

Ammit flinched slightly as Millicent hissed at both her and Kayin, the lioness watching helplessly as Kayin hurried away. This kitten had every right to be upset, but she was beginning to take it a bit far.
She had approached the den, crawling in and awaiting the kitten to follow. "It's beginning to warm up, so I could allow you to stay in here alone if you'd like," she offered, trying very hard to keep her tone even and kind. She almost wished Ashur would return and get onto this little cat for being so rude, but not all wishes come true.

Asha giggled as Sekai pushed her into the crevice, turning around quickly to peer outside. Sekai was there, and a very upset-looking Kayin was approaching them. "Kayin, whass wrong?" she asked, her eyes wide with curiosity. The chubby cub sat down, holding out a paw. "C'mon guys, get in here!" she squeaked, offering her assistance to whoever was coming in next.

Sekai glanced over at her brother, frowning. She didn't know what to say to make him happier, so she simply nuzzled him before turning uncertainly to the crevice. "Umm, I dunno if I'll fit..." Asha may be the chubbiest, but Sekai was still the largest and bulkiest. Still, she didn't want to look like too big of a wimp, so after taking a deep breath, she started to climb in, paying attention to her whiskers this time like her mother had said. She had a tad bit of trouble, but in the end she did make it into the crevice. "I hope I'll be able to get out."

Kayin peered in after his sisters, grinning. For the moment his bad mood was forgotten. "Nothin', Asha. I jutht feel thorry for the kitten. She'th got no mommy now," he said, slipping down into the crack rear-first. They were all pretty smushed together, but he didn't mind. In fact, he quite liked the closeness.

Ashur noticed his cubs scurrying into a crevice and raised a brow. What were they up to now? Sighing, he shrugged it off. Perhaps later he might take them out exploring, but as it was right now, it was a little too hot for him to want to step out of the shade, and it was likely to only get worse as the day progressed. Groaning, he stretched out his limbs before glancing around for Abrihet. When he finally caught sight of her, he walked over, sticking the shadows, of course. "So, how's Millicent doing?" The kitten was right there, but Ashur's words weren't directed toward her, of course. He kept his gaze going between her and Ammit, waiting for the pregnant lioness' response.

With the rising sun burning his wounds, Jasiri sighed and decided it wasn't worth waiting for Azikiwe anymore. Groaning, he slowly stood up, gasping as he wounds stretched and pulled, before turning and limping back to the shade. He still stayed on the outskirts of the Watch, occasionally turning his gaze in the direction of the Watering Holes, but otherwise, he was trying to force himself to stop thinking about the other male, and instead just focus on his wounds. Desperate to occupy himself, he turned his head and began cleaning up the wounds again, as all his moving around had reopened a few.

Ammit looked up when Ashur approached, a smile on her muzzle. The heat was really getting to her, and her body was screaming for shade. "She's doing alright. She's been fed and now she just needs rest," she replied, turning to look at Millicent. Her gaze then fell again on the king, who was looking quite drained. She approached him and gave his side a rub, concern growing for the male. His mane had to be suffocating him in the heat!
"Are you alright, Ashur?" she asked, concern clear in her tone.

Ashur nodded a little, looking at the caracal kitten. Pretty soon he was going to have to take her away and find a new home for her. She couldn't harm anyone now, but she as a feisty little thing. Who knew what she might do.
As Ammit spoke to him he turned his head to look at her, ears flicking. "Fine." Things were about as 'fine' as they could be while there was an elephant apparently wandering around in the Barrens territory. But he supposed compared to everything else, that was nothing. As far as he knew, everything was perfect and exactly how he wanted it. Though at that thought, he wondered how Clapperclaw was taking to their new king. Briefly he wondered if he ought to check, or at least check the borders on the Painted Army side. It might be a good idea to check the delta, anyway. Turning his head a bit, he glanced at Ammit's belly. Her pregnancy wasn't too obvious yet.... "Care to join me on another patrol, Ammit?"

Ammit frowned at Ashur's simple reply. Something was clearly bothering him, and even though Ammit wasn't about to pester him over it, she wanted to try and ease his mind a bit. At the mention of another patrol, Ammit glanced to Millicent before she looked back at him. "Alright," she replied, making sure Millicent wouldn't be able to get into trouble. The kitten had fallen asleep from what she could tell, so Ammit had no worries.
"Lead the way," she offered, again rubbing her side along his.

Ashur raised a brow at her rubbing his side, but otherwise didn't respond, glancing back. "Dnali, watch over everyone." Aside from Sunyiwe ((who I have no idea if she followed Ashur or not)), she seemed like the most capable one right now. Ivy couldn't even take down an injured cat, and Jasiri was near death. So Dnali it is.
Shaking out his mane, he sighed and started heading northeast, toward the Golden Bridge. "Come on."
((Aaaaand I shall post there a minute. XD))

Dnali watched her children play, stretching and leaping onto a rock. The sun was ruthless today, but her white pelt gave her a bit of an advantage, and it wasn't quite so brutal. As Ashur left, she saw her opportunity. She knew he would want to come on his cubs' first outing, but she wanted it to be just herself and her children.
"Alright, little ones. Let's get going, we can find somewhere a little more shady to explore," she called, jumping down from her rock.

When Kayin entered the crevice Sekai blinked, suddenly feeling very much cramped, and she started squirming. When she heard their mother calling them she grew even more desperate to get out, and quickly shoved past her brother, crawling out of the crevice before bounding to her mother. "We gonna go far?" She looked rather frightened by that idea, and it showed in her wide eyes. Whimpering, she rushed over to her smallest sister and practically pounced on her, hugging her. "Stay by me, Thema! We gotta protect each other!"

It seemed now Dnali and the cubs were leaving, too. Jasiri sighed. That just left him and a few other lionesses now. Groaning, he slowly sat up, wincing in pain, and glanced over toward the Watering Holes. Perhaps he SHOULD go check on Azikiwe now. He'd been gone for quite a while, and while Jasiri had no doubt that he was still with Abrihet, if Ashur came back and the other male was still gone, he knew his father would go looking for him. As much as Jasiri disliked the fact that Azikiwe preferred a sable, he disliked the idea of Azikiwe being upset even more. So, despite his wounds screaming at him not to, he stood and started to head that way.
