'Your father...'
Avem was walking across the plains, the stars glittering beautifully on the sky; another gorgeous night.
Suddenly, a farmiliar cubhood face ran towards her.
'Safi!' she beamed. 'How are you?'
But Safi didn't seem happy and bouncy. he look flustered and depressed.
As he ran closer, Avem noticed his tear stained fur.
'I am well. I deliver news of your father.' he spoke gravely. Avem's stomach started churning. This didn't sound good.
'Your father...was attacked by nine or eight hyenas, a little way past the tunnels of our Pride.'
'Is he alright?!' Avem gasped.
Safi swallowed.
Avem waited.
The air thickened with suspense.
'No. He died of too much blood loss. We found him...too late.' Safi bent his head.
Pain seeped through Avem's body, and tears fell down her face.
'He was a great lion. I'm sorry for your loss.'
'Saeva? His cubs? How are they taking it?' Avem swallowed the dry lump inher throat. She didn't really want the answer.
'Saeva doesn't want to see her cubs. She's ot eating or speaking; not even to King tenis, Mohatu be with him. May the Spirits be in your thoughts.' Safi bowed and ran off, eaving Avem alone.
Suddenly, the glittering stars dulled. The midnight air became black.
the night didn't seem so nice anymore.
