"Ummmm...." Mercury glanced back bedew looking back up at Zyphan. "I think so. They haven't done anything bad and the other cub is too small to do anything." He sat down, puffing out his chest as if he was trying to look bigger. "I won't let then do anything bad. Serene is teaching me some fighting moves!" The cub stood on his hindlegs and began slashing at the air. Unable to keep his balance, Mercury fell over on his side.
Serene smiled softly as she watched Mercury with affection. He liked to think he was bigger than he really was and that he would be like Zyphan when he was older.
Nero glanced over and saw that everyone was still gathered. He shook his head, he always felt nervous around a big group.
