[koolkatkoolkat123]

Ok you asked for another chapter.This is just a draft i'm adding in imagery and everything else later.I need you to tell me how I can improve on it

Lust

Kimba stayed a fair distance away from Sarabi as she followed her sister. Suddenly Sarabi darted off to her right. Kimba noticed she was swerving in and out of the trees sharply. This confused the white lioness. She followed her sister as best as she could. After a while Kimba paused to snifff the air. She looked from tree to tree realising what Sarabi had done. Her sister had disappeared and her scent was over everything meaning she couldn't find and follow Sarabis trail

Kimba growled in frustration before turning to head back to the pride. She was halfway there when she noticed some movement out of the corner of her eye. She paused thinking it might be Sarabi. Her eyes widened with alarm when she recognised the lion as Stone the Alpha lion of Sunlight pride. She tilted her head curiously,confused at why he was here. The thought popped into her head that he might be here to challenge her father but that was a ridiculous idea seeing as the large male was already Alpha of another pride. She followed Stone back to her pride and watched as he approached her father

"Stone, what are you doing here" King snarled, his hackles raised and his fur bristling

The dark furred lion gazed calmly at King "King i've come to tell you, you have to give us some of your territory"

Kings eyes flashed "You better have a good reason for coming here" He growled

Stone sighed "I honestly didn't want to do this. My pride is dying. Unless you give me some of your territory our cubs will die" He said almost pleadingly

Kings eyes were ablaze "Stone look around you. My pride has nothing. Our cubs are crying for milk. We are suffering from this drought as well" He growled

Stone glanced sharply up at him "Then i'm afraid i will have to fight you for your territory"

Kimbas eyes widened, her father already had a lion coming to challenge him. He wouldn't be able to beat him if he had to fight a lion before the challenger

King snarled and pounced onto Stone pinning him down. He snarled into the black maned lions face "Forget it Stone. Even if you managed to beat me. My pride would never let you leave. Now leave my territory. If we ever see any Sunlight lions on our territory my pride won't hesitate to kill them" He roared

Kimba heard someone behind her. She saw Sarabi standing behind her staring up at her father,her eyes wide with horror. Kimbas eyes clouded with confusion but she didn't approach her. She thought about asking Sarabi why she'd been avoiding her but then she'd know she'd been following her

The white lioness watched as Stone pushed King off of him and raced out of their camp. She glared after him glad to see him leave. She turned her attention on Sarabi, she blinked when she saw her sister had disappeared again

Out of the corner of Kimbas eye she spotted her mother Vixen emerge from the nursery and speak with her father. She smiled when she gazed at her mothers swollen belly giving away the fact she'd have more brothers and sisters soon

She turned her head to see a young male lion named Ace watching her. She blushed underneath her white coat and to her dismay it showed. Growling with frustration she walked away and into the warriors den. Very much aware of Ace watching her every move

I'd like to try that challenge, it sounds interesting. Well, this is the first chapter to my story.

FENNIK-

Daylight was just beginning to break over the desert.
Amidst the sand and rocks and flowering desert plants was a hole in the ground. Little yelps and whines were emerging from it.
The cactus wren foraging near the hole stopped its work and paused to listen. It ruffled its feathers, reluctant to give up such a good source of food that it had found here, but another yelp from the hole quickly changed its mind. The cactus wren lifted into the sky, landing again a good several feet away, and began to search for a meal once again.


Inside the den, the sounds were much louder, issuing from the mouths of several rowdy fox pups.

“But Mama, I don’t want to go sleep!”

Kiara smiled at her first-born pup, a stubborn dog-fox named Brom. He stood in front of her, his large ears quivering in indignation, his buff-gray pelt still kit-soft.

“Mama, will you tell us a story?” A sweet little voice inquired from her left. Glancing that way, she saw Lotus, sitting next to Twitchtip, the smallest of the litter.

Wait…where is Fennik? Brom also looked around, his gaze confused.
“Where’d Fenn go? “ He squeaked.
“Mama…I think I’m stuck.” A muffled voice echoed around the den. They all glanced around, searching for the source of it.
Twitchtip noticed a rust-colored tail sticking out of the wall. He nudged Lotus and pointed.
“Mama! Twitchy found him! He’s stuck in the wall!” Lotus shrieked.
Kiara jumped to her feet and paced over to the far side of the den. She crouched down by the tail, peering into the small crack between two rocks that her son had wedged himself into.
“Fennik? What have I told you about exploring without my permission?”
“I’m sorry, Mama,” came the remorseful little voice. “I couldn’t help myself.”
Kiara felt her heart warm. She never could stay angry with him for long. A problem suddenly occurred to her. How am I going to rescue him? The entire side of the den is rock…I can’t dig through rock! I guess I’ll have to pull him out. She gently took his tail in her mouth and tugged.

“Ouch!”
“Oh, Fennik. You’re really stuck in there.” She pulled again, to no avail. Brom suddenly rushed forward.
“We can help!” Brom seized the tip of his brother’s tail and motioned to Lotus, who squeezed past him and clamped her tiny teeth around the remaining part of Fennik’s tail. Twitchtip watched anxiously as his family struggled to free his brother.
There was the sudden sound of claws scrabbling on dirt and several small rocks bounced down the tunnel as their father emerged into the den, dropping a plump rabbit at his feet.
“I’m ba-what in the name of Ḁnᶏsol₥?” Kerrick sputtered in shock.
There was a tiny pop and Fennik was free, crashing into his littermates and they all collapsed in a heap on top of Kiara. She smiled up at her mate.
“Just another day in the den.”
“Quite a day, I’d say. I brought dinner. Sorry I’m late, but it took a really long time to track down.” Kiara stood up, dislodging her children. The slid to ground and curled together in a tired pile, exhausted from their little adventure. Soon, the only sound in the den was the gentle sound of sleeping pups.
“Aren’t they precious?” she whispered softly. Kerrick nuzzled her gently.
“Yes, they are. Just like you.”
The two kit foxes sat and watched their pups in silence, the rabbit forgotten.
“I think I’ll take them out of the den tomorrow,” Kiara said suddenly. Kerrick turned to his mate in surprise.
“So soon?”
“Kerrick, they’re nearly five weeks old. It’s about time.”
“I know, but…”
“They’ll be fine, silly. We’ll be watching them.”
Kerrick frowned. “I scented coyote today, while I was hunting the rabbit.” Kiara’s eyes widened. “It was pretty far from here,” he added hastily. “I don’t think it will be a problem, but maybe they should stay in the den, just to be on the safe side.”
She sat in silence for a long minute. “I’m still taking them out. We’ll just have to watch them more carefully, that’s all.” Kerrick knew there was no use arguing with his mate once her mind was made up. “Alright,” he said finally, watching his slumbering pups. “But promise me you won’t let them go farther than the cactus. “I promise. Now, stop worrying and eat this rabbit with me.” Kiara crouched down and tore off a chunk of meat from the furry meal lying on the floor of the den. Kerrick hesitated, then he too began to eat.
Unknown to his parents, Fennik hadn’t been asleep. He had lain there, wide awake, throughout their entire conversation. I wonder what a coyote is. The little pup had an insatiable curiosity, and was constantly asking questions and exploring places. He tried to picture what a coyote looked like. An image popped into his mind, a hungry monster with long, sharp teeth and red eyes. Fennik let out a sudden whimper and smuggled closer to his littermates. He began to feel sleepy and closed his eyes, quickly drifting off into darkness. He had one last thought before he blacked out.
A coyote must be something terrible.
