"Sound the bugle . . ."




"Sound the bugle now
Tell them I don't care
There's not a road I know
That leads to anywhere
Without a light, I fear that I will
Stumble in the dark
Lay right down, decide not to go on . . . "

After a long and harsh training session with Scorpio, Roscoe is lead back to his own small cavern. The cub is tired and bruised, and weak from hunger - however it's not like Lagiza has been trying to starve him, quite the contrary, he's offered him some of the most delicious antelope and zebra meat, but Roscoe has refused to eat simply out of protest - which is now starting to take it's toll on the young prince. He lays himself down, sighs heavily, and just gives in to tiredness, allowing his eyes to close. Roscoe's last thoughts before drifting into sleep are with his family, wondering if they miss him as much as he misses them, and tears roll down on his cheeks...

They add to it well - no way would he be squeaky-clean and unscathed after Scorpio's training.

Thank you so much, Wind, appreciate your words a lot!! And yes, I knew immidietally that this song would be the perfect soundtrack for this scene..

I must admit however that I wasn't all that sure about how the "bruise markings" came out xD But I'm glad to hear you liked them!

Ahhhh, so sad! He's had it rough - I like the grime on his fur you've added to show it.
Some great storytelling here; well done :) Perfect song too . . .
