Prompt: This was the night she had been waiting for.

Vera stood at the end of the tunnel, peering out into the light beyond. Earth to her sides and behind her prevented her from being jumped on. Sniffing the air, she glanced around, flexing her claws. If she had predicted their moves correctly, enemy forces should be coming in right about--

Lions emerged out of the darkness, wearing square-plated armor. The lion in front curled his scar-battered lip. "Where is my daughter?" he hissed.

Vera's hackles raised, and she had to plant her legs into the ground to keep them from shaking. Every fiber of her being itched to turn and run.

But that would ruin the entire operation.

"I'm sorry, I don't remember you making an appointment." Vera kept her head level and her voice smooth. "You're going to have to take it up with my boss."

The leader let out a roar and charged toward her, claws outstretched. Vera held her ground, leveling her antlers at him.

Yowls and shrieks exploded around her as her guardsmen launched themselves out of her hiding places. Vera met the leader head-on, catching his blow on her antlers and tossing his paw to the side. She knew that as she battled this fearsome lion, her other patrol was circling around and attacking the enemy patrol from behind.

He slashed at her flank, opening scratches in her orange pelt. Vera growled and was about to throw herself at him when she heard the sounds of a scuffle further back in the tunnel. Seeing that she was distracted, the lion padded closer, teeth bared.

"Azure!" she shouted, glancing at one of her lions on the outskirts of the fight. He instantly perked up at the sound of his name and barreled toward them, knocking the enemy leader off his paws.

Vera whipped around and tore down the tunnel, attention diverted to the matter at hand. That patrol was just a setback; her real mission was just ahead, and should be turning the corner...

Vera almost ran head-on into the lioness. The other lioness bared her teeth. "Vera."

"Mei. What do you think you're doing?"

The blind lioness let out a hiss. "How did you know?"

"I didn't expect you to call in extra help, but I did think you'd be making a run for it." Vera kept her antlers lowered, ready to stop Mei if she so much as twitched a muscle. "Once you learn to read the signs of a moonfolk ready to escape, it's easy to tell when they're going to do it."

She shoved the blind moonfolk back toward the fortress with a nudge of her muzzle. A growl rumbled in Mei's throat, but she allowed herself to be pushed back out into the fortress.

No one was getting out tonight, not on Vera's watch.

Lion name: Sibri
Lion gender: Female
Pride: Mystic Isles
Pride status:Deadly One
Prompt:
Sibri was often praised for her intelligence in hunting down her prey. But today she didnt feel so smart.

She wasnt sure how she hadn't noticed earlier. She wasnt sure how she was going to beat an opponent so much faster, older, stronger, and superior.

But she wasnt going to let that stop her.

She was not going to give up.

She was not going to let her prey be stolen.

She watched her Rival, Diana, prance in the long grass. It was textbook, tempting the lone lion to investigate, leading them away from safety. Then she would shift out of her antlered form, chase the lion down, and end him.

Meaning Sibri wouldn't get paid for ending him herself. She had tried it before, and succeeded to cash in for things she hadn't done. But she knew, that it would be more than reckless to try such a stunt on the one who had paid her for this job.

So for her own pride, and life on the line she would have to take on the oldest assaisain known to lionkind.

She only had two things on her side, unestimation and her knowledge of this area.

She shifted herself, becoming a fierce looking elk, strength and speed and ran towards the prey. As expected, Diana stopped her, her own horns crashing into Sibri’s own. Diana pushed her back, her strength far greater than Sibri’s own. But Sibri had never aimed for a physical battle.

She shook her antlers, freeing herself then fled. Or at least appeared to. She ran up a steep hill, her delicate hooves fitting in the rocks crevices with ease. While Dahlias more heavy hooves struggled, and she slipped a few times. She growled, as Sibri got further away.

It gave Sibri just enough time to enact her plan. She shoved rocks and dust down the slope at Diana. Blinding her oppenant temporarily. As a last act she shoved a small log down the slope, which Diana dodged, with a sly grin.

Until she saw Sibri on top of the log, racing past down the dust and debri. She slowed at the bottom, close to the stunned lion. And with that she stampeded his way, dealing a fatal blow before Diana had even stopped screaming profanities at her. (382/500)
