King 12

Part 4 of chapter 8

Touphy : '' To reiterate .. for all of you , * says as he turns his big , furry head left and right to look calm and thoughtfully at the Indenius pride * * , then looks back at Queen Destiny meeting her narrow eyed : '' Try me '' devious , furry , stare off * Queen Puffs .. decided to deliberately say '' Yes '' to Golden .. just for the time being , just to .. for now , agree .. to R and his second , older brother's royal terms and demands. , to prevent her from leaving Sundaya , to mislead Golden , get on his good side and then allow herself to sensually seduce him into their time well spent here for the remaining time that Golden and the rest will ' be ' .. in Sundaya. , till much later in the aftermath of this , she's going to plot and think ten steps ahead .. of a way , to oppose Golden and R and his second , older brother's royal terms and demands. , ''

Touphy : '' just to keep herself from heading over to : '' Paws Repercussions '' still chained up , to keep myself , my Tum Tum , Tawn over there and ex , neon green eyed and especially the pride very much protected. Because during the aftermath of this , she's going to realize that .. the whole time .. Golden has lead her astray towards their last conversation back in the poseidome there. , as he always does. ''

Dan tient tant : '' Mr .. Touphy , is it ? What do you mean by leading her astray ? ''

Touphy looks at Dan tient tant with the slightly turning of his big , furry head in Dan tient tant's direction.

Touphy : '' It means .. that Puffs is going to personally show Golden .. how it feels like .. when you're being lead astray. , ' without knowing ' the initial details and happenings of the sticky , no way out situations .. that Golden gets her into. Not .. that it is Puff's fault. ''

Touphy : '' Super-ly impressive , may I praise you beautiful ? ''

A couple of unknown , supporting cats in the Indenius pride : '' Ooh ! '' in head wrapping , genius chorus like praise for Queen Destiny.

Queen Destiny lets out a very , very soft , up close , furry , overly confident chuckle. , as if personally sharing this chuckle with herself. This cocky , furry chuckle being her way of telling Touphy : '' Why , thank you big guy. I am lovin' the praise. ''

Queen Destiny : '' You may big guy , you may ... ''

She stares seductively at mostly Touphy and Tum Tum , mixed with playfulness in her voice.

Touphy gives an equally , humbly impressed and overly proud , furry look onto her furry face. As he starts to playfully and over proudly wink at Queen Destiny. , seeing a very sweet sparkle deep inside of Touphy's dark blue , iceberg blue , furry eyes. A slight turn of her furry head , and Queen Destiny starts to look at Tum Tum who gives her a very , very wide , very pleased with , proud , furry grin at Queen Destiny. Also just as knocked right off of his very heavy , furry , strong and very long , hind legs by Queen Destiny as Touphy now is. Tum Tum softly laughs at Queen Destiny , in happy humble ment that as always , the Queen goes all out and has truly out done herself.

Tum : '' Hehe ... ''

Just before Tawny voices his opinion to her , Queen Destiny almost quickly turns her furry head to look back at Tawny. When these couple of cats that cheer in head wrapping support and chorus praise for Queen Destiny , these cats stop talking and let Tawny praise Queen Destiny in his trickery cold , hard to impress kind of way.

Tawny : * hard to impress and hard to praise , furry , soft chuckles at Queen Destiny * ( in - what appears to be Tawny's way of praising Queen Destiny , trying to have something nice to say to her ) '' I almost forget that you had such plotting planning and trickery cold finesse in these plans as I do. It appears , that you've hung out with me ' too much ' .. more than I thought .. and more than you thought. I've always known that you had this - we'll call it a : '' gift , I guess ? - skill when you were with me : happily married to me , for years since now. , ''

Tawny : '' You've knocked me off of my hind legs yet .. again. You always NEVER stop amazing me , don't you beautiful. ''

Tawny truly gives Queen Destiny a very , very genuine , on the level , furry grin that spreads from the left side of his furry cheek. Even his cold , tricking tone of voice is on the level. Not fake , pretending or anything. Tawny ' really means ' to be this honest and this true with Queen Destiny right now. Almost as if how he was acting with Queen Destiny didn't happen between the both of them at all.

Queen Destiny finds herself blushing a little red at Tawny. Knowing this side of Tawny , Queen Destiny already knows that Tawny truly is being as honest , genuine , true and on the level as he appears and sounds. So , right now , Queen Destiny feels a little touched at Tawny on these rare moments between them , is very pleased , proud and impressed with her. In .. his way of course.

Queen Destiny : ( sounding humbly , as if meek in front of Tawny ) '' Well lil' Tawndry , I ALWAYS gotta keep it interesting .. when I'm with you. But I can't take all of the credit for this. Along the way with you , you .. have taught me and helped me learn ' all ' of those plotting planning ways. I learn from the best of the best lion. Cold of the cold. ''

She gives Tawny an intriguing , furry wink while her : '' like the cat that got the cream '' furry , small shaped grin onto her furry face contradicts her sounding humble and meek , false tone of voice.

Tawny widens his very light , hazel eyes in romantic and personal affect that his Dawl just called her by his nickname that he grew up with since he was little , male cub : '' Lil' Tawndry. '' After just a second of doing this , Tawny gives Queen Destiny a very smooth , truthful : '' You turn me on like no cat else does '' furry look. Almost like a romantically dazed , furry look onto Tawny's furry face.

Noticing the furry look onto Tawny's furry face to the furry , gaze .. onto Tawny , Queen Destiny blushes even more red in a way where she knows that Tawny was looking her , and she simply accepts that she was caught. Queen Destiny turns her furry head to look elsewhere , anywhere but Tawny. , because secretly - just as much as Tawny - both are probably feeling one another look at each other in the exact , same heated , and .. as if hatefully attracted way that they were looking at each other back inside of the mysterious den.

When Touphy starts speaking again , the Indenius pride and royals start to hear Touphy's tone of voice and slowly stop cheering and praising Queen Destiny on.

Touphy : '' And there you all have it. It's always important .. that we acknowledge and address our Queen .. for the Queen of Sundaya that she is. We're looking at a natural , very fast and quick learner at birth here , cats. We're looking at a furry , very young royal by birth here. Now myself - and my favorite Tum Tum know -that the royals , the cats that talk about you as a royal , furry legend , they don't call you the Queen of Sundaya for nothin' You are reminded for being ' just as ' Queen Lad La La every .. day. ''

Mavlie : ( says in her usual , overly excited tone of voice ) '' She's so pretty ! , just like Desi ! ''

Queen Destiny softly laughs at Mavlie's overly excited personality as she inaudibly thanks Mavlie for the very sweet and meaningful compliment about her and about her and Flaunti's royal mother : Queen Lad La La.

In the Indenius pride , there are much more accolades , acclaims , roars , snarls in cat language and still in cat communication. , as Queen Destiny smiles more pridefully all around her with just slight turns of her furry , royal head from left and right. Staring back into furry , colored eyes from cats in the Indenius pride , cats in her royal collision , cubs from below that oblivious continue playing with her - as if playing was their way to celebrate and acclaim her - the royals happily nodding their furry heads and then start to throw their furry heads up to snarl happily at Queen Destiny. Even Tawny's lions from his collision have smug , deeply and pleasantly , furry looks onto their furry faces at Queen Destiny. In all of their hard to express , trickery cold , furry exterior like for Tawny too.

And just like that , such accolades quickly turn into sweet , sweet conversation starting and conversation making in preparation for hunting this evening. Well , tonight actually. And when all cats appear to be in check with every cat and all cats start to rise up and get up from laying down - or sitting upright - for hours. , stretching after waiting so , so much all evening for Queen Destiny and Tawny that took ' way too long ' to stop talking in the mysterious den ; Sir Antevill is the very first lion to speak up. , then Touphy follows along with orders as the Indenius pride starts to meet up with other cats and walk up closely by other cats sides as if this is the cats way of preparing to hop and hunt for action to a nightly hunt.

The cats in the Indenius pride stop walking and meeting up with each other - along with each other's furry sides - as cats stay in place for just a second. , listening to the royals order and lead them away to a nightly hunt. Queen Destiny is ' still ' onto her long , furry fours in the very , very middle in place , of almost walking right out the right slanted side and area near by the poseidome. We can barely see the cats furry faces now , just seeing furry , colored eyes and furry , big or small heads to overly fluffy manes moving around in dark , dark , cat silhouettes and cat shadows.

Sir Antevill : * turning his furry head as he looks ahead at Queen Destiny * '' Your royal highness , it's time to hunt. Are you ready ? , is everything all set ? Do we know what cats are coming with us to hunt ? ''

Touphy : '' Yes beautiful. , * turns his big , furry head to look at Queen Destiny * * , his iceberg , dark blue , dark golden streaked mane shaking once he turned his furry , big head to look at Queen Destiny * I plan that I stay with you and watch over you while you get some rest. Tawn's collision , beautiful's lioness collision , one royal , one royal servant and the rest of the reinforcements follow Tawn. Tawn will be leading the hunt this time since my beautiful Queen here , isn't feeling up to it. Whatever you all hunt out their in the night , is what's on the menu. ''

Tum : '' And what do I do brother ? ''

Touphy almost quickly turns his furry head to look into Tum Tum's volcano red , furry eyes. In all of the shady darkness , Touphy can ' still ' make out Tum Tum's very attractive and handsome , furry face in his nightly , cat vision sight.

Touphy : '' You're not going to like it .. when I tell you this brother , but you'll be helping Tawny lead the nightly hunt. I know that you always say and HATE it , when I part away from you as your older brother , but my beautiful Queen needs to be watched over. Some cat ' has ' to watch over her and I'll do just that since no cat cared to volunteer. Uncle is ' still ' chained up back at the royals old den , so you don't need to worry about him. , ''

Tum : ( sounding very upset , but it's so hard to tell because of his deep voice ) '' What ? , oh I'm not doing that. That's like suicide. ''

Touphy : * soft , patient sighs at Tum Tum * '' This is always hard .. for me to do and say to you , whenever we separate like this. But if I don't watch my beautiful Queen , who will ? What if Reign - her greatest threat in Sundaya yet - comes over here on this nightly day and get to the Queen ? Then what ! , please ! , be reasonable here my Tum Tum. ''

Tum Tum looks a bit down as if shyly in troubled thought at Touphy. As much as he hates where this is going , his older brother Touphy is right.

Tawny : * turning his furry head to look in Tum Tum's direction * '' Your older brother is right there. Since you both are the only two guardians that provide extra muscle and strength in the pride . we're going to have to put our differences aside - and for the sake of the pride - , work together in order to make this hunt a complete success. We ' can-not ' fail or can afford to mess up. Cubs need to be fed. We ' all ' need to be fed. ''

Touphy : * says this to Tum Tum as he almost quickly turns his furry , big head to look back at Touphy * * , into his iceberg , dark blue , furry , glowing in the dark eyes * '' I don't want you to worry too much about this , my favorite Tum Tum. Okay ? , it's not permanent. It's only going to be this way till more cats return to Sundaya and just .. for tonight. Alright ? ''

Tum Tum sighs aloud at Touphy and Touphy takes Tum Tum's aloud sigh , that Tum Tum is going to try to be patient just for him. Just for tonight. Just only for a short time.

Touphy : '' When the hunt is over my favorite Tum Tum , come stop by to get me and we'll be off to protect and patrol in and out of Sundaya grounds. Mothers , get the cubs out of her and in the safety of a den for the time being. Tawn , roar to us all when the hunt is over and my favorite Tum Tum , make sure it's safe out here and no hyenas or wild dogs are traveling about here on Sundaya grounds. Any one of you , roar if you need me. * his furry , big head turns to look at the royals and all of the Indenius pride * * almost raising his voice for the Indenius pride to hear * The rest of you follow Tawny. Roar if anything goes wrong or amiss. Now ! , move it ! ''

Other cats start to dash , trot , hop and run into action hearing the very aloud , as if angry sound of Touphy's voice. Cats in the Indenius pride start to run out of the right , slanted side of the poseidome. After much bitching and rubbishing talking from inside of the poseidome , currently , Golden , Rose , Scales and Trails collision are just now walking out the aluminum foiled , wide , wide entrance out of the poseidome. In time to see the Indenius pride move in the pitched , shaded darkness in action to hunt for the night. With a gleaming , belittling , furry look into his dark golden eyes , Golden cocks his furry , big head to the side as if he didn't know what was going on with the Indenius pride right now. With minimizing , treat lightly , make light of , dismissing , furry looks onto Rose and Scales and Trails collision - a.ka : the evil twin and triplet , whispering , male lions - these cats murmur in as if disagreeing curiosity spotting only a small group of cats who are still listening to Touphy : Sir Antevill , Iaon , Daunnie , Queen Destiny , Flaunti , Touphy , Tawny and Tum Tum. The rest of the Indenius pride ran and chased off ' round Sundaya grounds trying to spot what prey will be on the menu for tonight. As Touphy ordered , the mother lioness and cubs dispersed to dens outside of the right , slanted side of the poseidome. , needing to clean up their cubs , raise their cubs and breast feed their cubs.

Sir Antevill : * turns his furry head to look at Queen Destiny's dark and light brown eyes , just for reassurance and guidance * '' Your royal highness , are we all following along with Sir Touphy's plan ? ''

Queen Destiny : '' We most definitely are Ant. I can't even think straight. I may not sound so bone tired , but I ' really am ' bone tired. I'm ' so tired ' .. that I just want to knock out in any second. '' * very sweet , loud yawns *

Touphy : '' You just hang tight there , my furry , beautiful beauty. I'll take you to bed as quick as possible. I'll even let you lay on my furry back and I'll walk you over to myself and Tum Tum's old , home , royal den and territory. , so that way , you can sleep with me safe and soundly for the night. ''

Touphy gives Queen Destiny a kind and loving , furry smile.

Queen Destiny : * blushing a little red at Touphy * ( says in a tired and loving tone of voice ) '' Awohh big guy , you're so incredibly sweet. I really , really appreciate it. You're always there for me. ''

Touphy walks closer to Queen Destiny taking over her furry , personal space.

Touphy : '' Oh never you worry , beautiful. You need your rest. You know that you're never yourself when you're this tired. It's not good for you to be operating tonight , being this tired. - You know that I'll always be there for you and I'll always protect you. I promise .. to take care of you tonight. ''

Queen Destiny : '' Awoh. , you're so good to me. - Oh ! '' * soft , questioning moan *

Touphy : ( says softly to Queen Destiny ) '' Oh I got you beautiful , I got you. Don't be afraid to put all of your weight on me. ''

Queen Destiny gives Touphy a very tired , loving smile and then collapses out of bone tired ness. In her soft , questioning moan of tired ness , Touphy quickly moves closer to Queen Destiny and lets her lay onto his very , very long and heavy back before she could even touch the dirt ground. Now laying onto Touphy's very long , furry back , Queen Destiny looks at Tum Tum in a half way , lop sided way seeing Tum Tum's volcano red eyes.

Tum : '' Oh Puffs. I ' really wish ' that I could help you tonight. But I didn't expect to be needed from the pride tonight. My older brother's plans tonight weren't exactly what I had in mind. I hope your beautiful , royal self gets plenty of rest tonight. I'll definitely be sure to stop by with Touph and make sure that you're alright beautiful. ''

Queen Destiny smiles a little angel like and beatific at Tum Tum.

Queen Destiny : '' Awoh Tum Tum. * soft , rapturous chuckles a bit * , I forgot just how cherubic and overly sweet that you and your older brother always is for me. I swear ... * lets out a soft , quiet breath * for as many Sundaya years as I have known you , you ALWAYS have me thinkin' that you like me so much more .. than as a life long , lion best friend of mine. * there this seraphic glimmer in her dark and light brown eyes as Tum Tum smiles blissed out at Queen Destiny while showing off the deep , deep red blushes forming onto his big , furry cheeks of his face * * Tum Tum continues to listen to Queen Destiny * Like you really .. and mostly truly .. have very powerfully strong , love feelings for me. ''

Tum tries his hardest to tell Queen Destiny bald faced lie so that he can hide the true face that he ' really does ' love Queen Destiny secretly. , but ' ONLY ' for the sake of allowing Touphy to get to her. Even though he's going to keep challenging against Touphy for Queen Destiny anyway , if ' any ' of this .. even makes sense. But Tum Tum ? - Tum Tum , just ' doesn't ' want Queen Destiny to know how strongly he feels for her. , as much as he's crushed ' so hard ' on Queen Destiny ever since cubhood that now , now that he's a much older and grown up lion , now this '' crush '' is growing out to becoming true , real , strong love for Queen Destiny. But she is loves Touphy - so she says - and Touphy loves her.

Tum Tum is trying to spare his strong , love feelings for her , from getting exposed right in front of Queen Destiny's arresting , furry face. He doesn't want himself getting involved and all mixed up into Queen Destiny and his older brother's starting relationship and being so mad and wildly in love with his older brother's fiancé. So , Tum Tum says this :

Tum : ( speaking in his normal emotionless tone of voice , so as to keep Queen Destiny's suspicions about loving her , from coming true ) '' Oh really. You .. ' really ' think that '' our '' * he says this carefully as he slowly starts to glance at Touphy's suspiciously curious , furry stare at him * * , making sure that he doesn't say the ' wrong thing ' in front of Queen Destiny so it doesn't cause any love , cat triangle problems * * Once Tum Tum feels that Touphy is looking at him , he almost slowly moves his volcano red eyes back to look at Queen Destiny , who was looking back at the huge , twin brothers almost thinking that they're hiding their skeltons in the closer from her * beauteous Puffs. Well what lion ' wouldn't ' love a lush , come to bed , ' bangin' ' lioness Queen .. such as yourself. ( tries even harder to lie to Queen Destiny in front of Touphy ) I .. wouldn't say I feel that way , but I ' do ' would say .. that my Touph is very , very , very lucky .. to have you in his furry , strong arms and holding you in his especially furry and huge paws. ''

but on the inside of Tum Tum , Tum Tum ' already feels ' so dirty , dishonest , disloyal and guilty for bold faced lying like this , in front of Queen Destiny's furry , delightful face. This is hurting him ' even more ' through his deep , attitude havin' heart that he ' really does ' want Queen Destiny to believe : right now - for just this second anyway , what's the harm ? - that his Touph is very lucky to have her. Tum Tum doesn't think that. Tum Tum wants to be the luckiest lion in Sundaya to have a lioness Queen like Queen Destiny. .. As much as he LOVES .. fighting against his older brother Touphy as much as the next lion , but .. he just wants Queen Destiny for himself : ' by ' .. himself. He doesn't wanna share Queen Destiny.

What lion - or group of lions - would want to share Queen Destiny like this anyway ?

Queen Destiny blushes overly red , always loving the straight forward way that Tum Tum and Touphy always speak to her. She notices over time in Sundaya that Touphy and Tum Tum are ALWAYS excellent at wooing and thrilling her when they compliment in her in a way where she feels overly special. , and like she's the ' ONLY ' lioness in the world. She remembers Tawny always making her feel this way , but right now , this thought slowly leaves her furry mind. Now picturing .. in her furry mind now , that Tum Tum lately , has ALWAYS made her feel this way just as much as Touphy does.

Queen Destiny : '' Awoh Tum Tum. * softly laughs idyllic , finding herself thinking in romantic , roaming thought about Tum Tum rather than Touphy * I'mma try my best to think much , much harder .. can I repay the both of you back. You guys have been takin' care of me since cubhood. Since ten days ' before ' the very first hyena invasion , Moonlight handed me over to you both and entrusted you both with me. * now halcyon , softly chuckles about the quick days where the three of them met and hit it off right then and there * There ' must be ' something that I could do for the both of you in return. I really , really appreciate it and .. - I always feel like you both are trying to sweep me right off of my furry , hind legs. ''

Touphy gives Queen Destiny a candy sweet , furry , half smile in Queen Destiny's direction that crosses the right side of his furry , big face. Both huge lions acting as if they're hiding a dirty secret from Queen Destiny , Tum Tum slightly turns his huge , furry head for just a little bit seeing Touphy's candy sweet , furry facial expression after looking at Queen Destiny's direction. , since Queen Destiny is laying onto Touphy's huge , very , very long back , her furry view is in a half way , horizontal view. So when Queen Destiny is looking at Touphy , Tum Tum or .. any cat , she can see cat's from a navigational east view as if reading a compass.

Tum Tum continues to look as if he ' better not ' screws things up for his older brother Touphy. , ' if ' he chooses now , to tell Queen Destiny how he really feels about her. As if looking overly intimidated and fearfully afraid that Touphy is going to be pissed off at him for the rest of his life. Tum Tum listens to Queen Destiny go on speaking as if being overly careful enough to hear her carefully and not say anything that will raise suspicion on Tum Tum , that he ' really does ' love her. Then it's going to interfere with Queen Destiny and Touphy's relationship and about to get married.

Touphy : ( speaking in a candied and honeyed tone of voice , mixed with his deep voice ) '' Oh my sexy , furry fiancé , how many times do I gotta tell ya that you NEVER .. need to repay us back. My favorite Tum Tum and I don't expect anything in return. it's not like you owe us anything , when you put it like that. Though I ' will admit ' , that myself - and I'm sure my favorite Tum Tum here - does .. want something from you , but it ' won't ' be in return. NOT .. in a way where we both see it as .. you owe us. Does this make sense to you beautiful ? ''

Queen Destiny : '' Yes ... ''

Was her bone tired , seduced with honey , difficult words.

Touphy : ( voice goes from honeyed , back to dangerously straight forward ) '' But don't you worry ' bout that right now. I said that I was going to take you to bed. , and I will take you bed. Now off you go for now , my favorite Tum Tum. I got the Queen. ( says in a patient way , understanding Tawny's character as a lion ) Trry to put up with Tawny my favorite Tum Tum. For me , please ? And yes , I know that I owe you on this. Knowing Tawny's character as a lion and how you truly feel about Tawny. ( voice goes back to dangerously straight forward ) Remember to come back to me and my Queen ' once ' .. the hunt is over. Well , I supposed you eat first and ' then ' come back to me and my Queen. ''

Touphy : '' You let me know if you can't handle this hunt out here without me right now or , if you happen to feel this way towards the middle of the hunt with Tawny. If you can-not handle leading by Tawny's furry side during this hunt , for once , ' don't ' .. push .. your luck .. and tell me right now. Can you handle this without me , my Tum Tum. ''

It gets a little quiet in this right , slanted side of the poseidome as Touphy patiently waits for Tum Tum to answer his question. In this next second of silence , Tum Tum , Touphy , Daunnie , Tawny , Dan tient tant , Sir Antevill and Ioan could hear the soft , lenient sighs coming from Queen Destiny's bone tired , furry , royal body. After another second of silence goes back , Tum Tum finally comes up with an answer to Touphy's question in front of Tawny , Daunnie , Dan tient tant , Ioan and Sir Antevill.

Tum : ( trying to impress or please Touphy ) '' Yes big brother. I can. ''

As if plainly , Touphy looks at his second , older brother Tum Tum as if he didn't believe that Tum Tum said '' yes '' in accord. Touphy lets out a patient sigh while at the same time , thinking of what ' could be ' the possible reason - or thought - that Tum Tum could possibly come up with , that is making him agree to this. Didn't he just say that this move is suicidal on his part ? Well , Touphy would NEVER allow his favorite Tum Tum to do something like this that ' doesn't ' make him feel comfortable , that's ' be-yond ' his character and that's like siding and joining with Tawny.

So , for now , Touphy patiently tries his best .. to let Tum Tum go on this hunt with Tawny. As much as he feels at the ' back ' of his mind , to stop Tum Tum from doing this. Why ? , because he doesn't want ' his ' favorite Tum Tum near the enemy : Tawny. At least .. ' NOT ' .. without him by Tum Tum's furry side of course.

Touphy : ( says patiently , ignoring his reluctant feelings at the hack of his mind that are fighting so hard to get Tum Tum to decide NOT .. to go hunt with the Indenius pride and Tawny ) '' Okay my Tum Tum. If this is what you want to do. ''

Tum : '' I'll be careful , my best older brother. Know that. I hope that it ' will ' give you some .. kind of comfort and reassurance at the back of your mind while you're watching over Puffs tonight. ''

Touphy gives Tum Tum a reassuring , fake and convincing curve of a smile to Tum Tum. A furry smile that - this time - crosses at the left , side of his huge , furry , left cheek.

Touphy : * softly chuckles in as if funny agreement with himself * '' You are sooo stubborn. You'll NEVER stop pushing your luck , will you. ''

Tum : * smiles as if cocky back at Touphy , in agreement with Touphy * '' And you are sooo cocky. You won't even stop being that will you. * Tum Tum watches Touphy shake his huge , furry head : '' No '' in the shady , pitch darkness near the poseidome * - Really , no worries and no reluctant thoughts that are already forming at the back of your head by now. I'll be fine. I'll bite my furry , huge tongue and work with Tawny ' just ' .. for tonight. , and for you. We've ' already ' had a huge fallout once , and that ' almost ' send me runnin' right out of Sundaya about our family. Let's not argue this time. ''

Touphy : * says : '' Mmm '' in deep , deep agreement with Tum Tum as he nods his huge , furry head once * '' Mmm. And argue we won't brother. Stay safe out there. You already know how much I love you brother. ''

Tum : * smiles a bit gladsome at Touphy * '' You know that I love you too brother. But don't get used to me sayin' this to you. ''

Touphy gives Tum Tum an overly proud , knockout , furry grin at Tum Tum. Showing only some of his teeth that are shown at the bottom row rather than the top row of his huge , furry mouth.

Touphy : '' Now ' that's ' my little Tum Tum. ''

Tum Tum smiles thrillingly at Touphy thrilled about learning how to be and stay cold and tough. , just so that his furry , huge disposition ensures his chances of survival and makes him less of an easy target. , compared to how much of an : '' easy target '' that he was when he was just a little cub.

* Near by , distant roar close by the area of the poseidome *

All cats : Touphy , Tum Tum , Sir Antevill , Daunnie , Ioan and Tawny all tear their furry big or small heads to look in the direction that the near by , distant roar was coming from. , very close by the area of the poseidome. Queen Destiny couldn't look because bone tiredness being overly temptingly causing her to be overcome with sleep and knocks out even ' before ' she heard the distant , near by roar.

Sir Antevill : '' That must be a cats roar in the pride. Sounds to me that they must've spotted prey that's ' definitely ' on the menu tonight. Are we on the move now or wait ? , ''

Sir Antevill says to Touphy , Tum Tum , Daunnie , Ioan and Tawny as the rest of the royals and guardians furry , big or small heads quickly turn back to look and listen to Sir Antevill. Already jumping and moving into action. Literally.

Sir Antevill slightly turns his furry head to look at Tawny quickly.

Sir Antevill : '' ready to move on your royal decree , Prince .. of Sundaya ? ''

Tawny : '' Yes. Now would be an ' excellent time to. The rest of us need to catch up with the rest of the pride. , the pride obviously has spread out widely by now. * he quickly turns his furry head to look at Tum Tum * Tum Tum ? , ready to guide along with me or do you wish to fall back and patrol ' round Sundaya. ''

Having already ignoring what Touphy and Tum Tum said about the kind of character he has as a lion and about how very , very personal it sounded , when Touphy warned Tum Tum to try to get along with him and work with him just for the sake of the hunt. , and in order for said hunt to go successfully since the pride ' needs ' to work as a unit. For now , cats ' must ' set aside their differences when it comes to participating and linking up for group , cat hunts.

Tum Tum turns his furry , huge head to look back at Tawny thoughtfully.

Tum : '' You bet I'm comin' with you. You just might need extra muscle in the pride. I'll be of royal service to you just for tonight. Upon Touphy's ' unexpected ' plans for this hunt tonight. ''

Tawny venerates Tum Tum with a respectful , thankful , definitely fake , furry smile onto the left , furry side of his furry face.

Tawny : '' Splendid Tum Tum. Stay close by my side together. The rest of you , flank out and ' ONLY ' bunch up when we reach our prey. We're a very long way off from our prey so that doesn't give us much time to give chase. We move and we move now. ( almost raising his voice while motioning his furry head to the right of him just up ahead * Let's go ! ''

The rest of the royals and Tum Tum all their furry , big or small heads in simple understanding and agreement with Tawny's royal , apple-pie order towards tonight's hunt. First as a royal pair , Daunnie and Sir Antevill get crackin' , get a move on and go like lightening. After two more seconds go by , Iaon makes a getaway following a bit of a large gap ahead of Daunnie and Sir Antevill's running. Another two seconds go by again , and this time , it's both : Tum Tum and Tawny's turn to follow right after the royals zooming , sweep and whiz out of the right slanted side of the poseidome. Before Tum Tum high tails it with Tawny , Tum Tum quickly turns his furry , big head to look as if for unsure reassurance from Touphy who has been listening to the royals , royal servants and talk Tawny this whole time. , but hasn't said anything.

Touphy gently gives Tum Tum a gentle nod and a pleasing , furry , curved smile to the right side of his furry cheek. Tum Tum smiles a little happily right back at Touphy. After another soft and reassuring second of silence goes by , Tum Tum quickly turns his huge , furry head to give Tawny a firmly feral : '' Let's go '' furry nod once. Tawny high tails ahead first and lastly , Tum Tum hightails it also. Both lions fading and enclosing themselves inside of the shady , pitchy darkness shield that completely covers all of Sundaya and ' out ' of Sundaya tonight. In the direction ' out ' of the right , slanted side of the poseidome hoping to catch up with the royals , the royal servants and the rest of the Indenius pride.

Leaving Touphy alone , and the ' ONLY ' lion .. that is slowly planning to walk out of the right , slanted side of the poseidome. Off to himself and Tum Tum's huge territory to their old , second , family den. - Or Touphy ' seems ' .. to be alone at the moment with Queen Destiny : out like a light.

Golden : '' Need some extra help ? ''

All in a pensive temper - hearing the sound of Golden's roguish , puckish , impish and black hearted tone of voice - , Touphy's huge , furry head turns right over his left , furry shoulder from behind him. Through his shimmering , inflamed , iceberg , dark blue eyes , Touphy could see Golden , Rose , Scales and Trails collision almost slowly taking their time approaching Touphy. All walking onto their long or short , furry fours in a row from Golden to the left , Rose in the middle , to Scales and Trails collision at the right. All together , the cat gang stops walking in front of Touphy leaving a slightly small gap between them and Touphy. , as if giving Touphy his personal space.

Touphy low growls a bit loudly inflamed at Rose , Scales and Trails collision and finally at Golden's furry , mendacious and two-timing appearance.

Loathing Golden as much as himself and Tum Tum loathe Tawny , Touphy answers Golden confrontationally as he gets narrow eyed a bit obstreperous at Golden.

Touphy : ( speaking coldly confrontational ) ( faking a tone of what is .. barely friendly ) '' Oh no Golden. I'm not desperate. I'd rather help Sombi even ' before ' he turns on me and scratches my eye balls out. That would be shaking furry paws with a devilish lion. As if , that doesn't describe you ... ''

Golden's furry smile widens low down at Touphy with a furry , facial expression that's spoiling for a fight. , and a grown , young . male lion who is also thrilled to actually find pleasure in stirring up problems with other lions in Sundaya , hyping up lion fights and ready to battle or challenge it out with a cat. Anything to get the blood flowin' from his black hearted , furry chest.

Rose , Scales and Trails collision's furry smiles widen into dishonorable , reprobating , up to no good , good-for-nothing and wretched grins , scowls and smirks at Touphy as Golden continues to speak to Touphy wickedly ludic.

Golden : '' Oh ! , did you ' assume ' .. that I - I mean , '' we '' * he says highlights and puts extra emphasize on the word : '' we '' as he turns his furry , big head to motion the direction of Rose , Scales and Trails collision included * * then almost slowly turns his big , furry head to look back at Touphy continuing to speak * meant that we were going to help you with the Queen ? , * cruel , ludic , soft chuckle as if this was funny * no , no , no. I simply meant by '' offering '' .. extra help in the hunt. ''

Touphy gives Golden a cold , pensive , furry look. Already seeing right through his furry actions and furry , physical appearance that other cats in the Indenius pride perceive and view him as the kind of lion that he most ' truly ' is.

Touphy : '' Oh. , well you're barking up the wrong tree there Gold. I didn't lead tonight's hunt with the pride. I simply ordered what will happen in said hunt tonight. The lion that you ' need ' to talk to , is Tawny. ' He's ' leading the hunt tonight with the pride , along with my second , older brother : Tum Tum. You all just missed him. By the time that you all ' finally ' .. walked out of the poseidome for the day , Tawny and the Indenius pride just left. ' He's ' .. the lion that you need to talk to. NOT me. ''

Golden : ( says in a mocking , full of mischief way ) '' Oh ! , * he cocks his furry , big head backward mocking Touphy in a patronizing and treating him lightly way * ( voice changes to acting coldly deceitful ) Tawny you say. Happening to be Prince .. of Sundaya , hmm. But this doesn't make us barking up on the wrong tree , oh no. You're ' just ' the lion .. that I wanted to see tonight. ''

Touphy : '' Oh pleassse Golden. ( raises his voice a little bit ) ' I'm ' the kind of lion - along with Tum Tum - that ' no cat ' EVER .. wants to see .. or confront. Now all of a suddenly , you come in Sundaya , probably under the royal , power hungry command of lions like Trick , R and his older brother ; and you're trying to be every cat in the Indenius pride's best friend ? * dismissing , soft chuckle in front of Golden , Rose , Scales and Trails collision * I'm in ' no mood ' for untruthful and misleading lions like you. You ' won't ' lead my Puffs astray anymore. Not as long as I'm with her. ''

Golden gives Touphy a fake , as if impressed smirk.

Golden : '' If Tum Tum - is it ? - is your second , older brother , then you must go by the name of Touphy. * he leans his furry , big head as if intimidatingly in front of Touphy * Is .. that .. right. ''

Touphy gets even more narrow eyed at Golden obstinate while leaning his furry , big head to come in close , furry and eye contact with Golden.

Touphy : ( mimicking and mocking Golden a little bit ) '' Who .. wants .. to .. know. ''

Golden smiles mischief making at Touphy. in this red and fur-ious silence between Touphy and Golden , Golden smoothly leans his furry , big head back in the way that his furry , big head was before for no reason of the sort.

Golden : ( malicious whispers ) '' I do. ''

Mirroring Golden's every , furry movement right in front of him , Touphy leans his furry , huge head back and straightens up in as much of a superior , winning way as Golden is. , keeping in mind that Queen Destiny is still knocked out onto his very , very long , heavy and powerful back.

Touphy : ( ignores Golden's response for just a moment ) '' If you all ' still ' wish to participate in the hunt tonight , you may be too late. By now , the Indenius pride probably got some prey for us to eat tonight. If you ' still do ' plan to go , you may arrive late and the hunt may be over. But if you ' still wish ' you go , you ' could ' help the pride drag the prey here for dinner. ''

Golden : ( says if he didn't already know this ) '' Oh ? , ( voice returns to be destructively impish ) you don't need to mention that anymore , Touphy. * Touphy continues to stare at Golden poisonous * We all have decided at such impressively quick timing just now - don't ask us how , but we all came to an agreement at such late notice - ''

Touphy : ( says in a mocking , careless way ) '' Oh. I won't. It's not like I give a damn anyway. Now you go on and keep talkin' to me. , while I think of ' more ways ' to hate you. ''

Golden : ( finishing his sentence while looking vicious at Touphy * '' to abort the hunt and talk about something else. You know , change the subject. ''

Touphy : ( still speaking coldly confrontational ) '' No , I ' don't ' know. - I'm sorry ? , you ' really ' consider this a conversation ? Ha ! , I would NEVER talk with you , with all of the hairs inside of my mane that are re growing ' back. ' Understand where I'm coming from. ''

Golden : '' Yes I do , ( voice gets a little raising starting to lose his patience with Touphy ) ( speaks in a snapping , driving a cat around the bend way ) but you ' DON'T ' .. have much of a choiccce ! ( plays with the word and drags the word : '' choice '' with a snaky , slithery sound ) * dark , golden eyes coruscating in viciousness at Touphy * Like ' any cat ' has a choice when speaking to me ! You ' will ' speak with me and you ' will ' engage in conversation ! Now ' do you ' understand ? ! ''

Touphy : '' ' As if ' I want to understand. ''

Touphy rolls his iceberg , dark blue eyes in stank attitude in front of Golden , Rose , Scales and Trails collision.

Golden : ( speaking in a fake , lovely calm way , but still vicious ) '' Now let's try .. this .. again. Let's pretend us snapping at each other NEVER .. happened , hm ? Let's talk .. about the Queen. How ' is ' her lovely , royal self tonight ? , why isn't she participating in the hunt with Prince Tawny ? , what-ever happened to her , who's laying soundly on your back ? I know she's a very , very strong Queen , but is she okay ? ''

Touphy : ( mimicking Golden's fake , lovely calm tone of voice , but vicious ness is clearly heard through his voice ) '' How ' bout this Gold. Let's ' NOT ' .. talk about my Puffs , hm ? I'm sorrry , that I beat ya to it Gold. But ' I'll ' be watching after her while she sleeps tonight. ( voice goes back to speaking coldly confrontational all over again ) So let's just cut all of the fake , sweet talk about her , okay. You and I ' both know ' that you ' DO NOT ' .. have your best interests at heart for her. Did you forget those chains .. that are still onto her furry , front paws , furry arms and furry , hind legs ? , ''

Touphy : '' I'm sorry but , that ' doesn't ' mean anything to you ? Well let me tell ' you something ' : right .. now. I am ' very peeved ' and very bothered by this tremendously. ''

Golden : '' If I ' didn't have ' my best interests for her at heart , then I ' would've ' proposed to her : cat style and asked her to marry me. ' Because ' I'm in love with her and I love her. ''

This time , for just a second , Golden's voice sounds sweetly , honey genuine. Such veracity hidden deep within his voice because he has a soft spot for Queen Destiny. , even at the mention , of Queen Destiny's name , Golden swears that his long , furry body goes still and numb because of Queen Destiny.

Touphy : '' So lions like you , can use marriage against my Puffs .. in order to control and own her ? * suppressed , cold chuckle to himself * Hmph. , well aren't you ' jusst ' like another Tawny , aren't ya. ''

Golden smiles sportive as if he thought Touphy's cold insult of Tawny was a knock out. This only makes his evilness as a lion ' even more ' vicious than compared to now.

Golden : '' And aren't you just like another Trick , hm ? Do you remember him Touphy ? He was the most HATED lion in all of Sundaya ? Oh he ' is ' a royal , a royal legend , an even more powerful , royal ruler just as much as Red was , if I'm getting the royals ' very long ' story right. ' Before ' .. Moonlight , got his pride set up and .. the cats that are here today , have become what they ' are ' now. * little , fake chuckle * Trick took his ' DEEPEST ' fancy to you. , and ' ALL ' of Indenius knows it. ''

Touphy : '' Don't go there. ''

Golden : '' Oh ! , I'm ' so sorry ' Touphy. Did I hit a nerve ? ''

Touphy : '' Right now , can Kinny ' please ' give me the urge and strength NOT .. to twist your whole , furry neck in half. ''

Golden laughs at Touphy troublesomely.

Golden : '' Oh Touphy , you always ' were ' the kind of lion filled with a fighting spirit , you ALWAYS fought a lot , having such a cold , furry appearance. You were always like that ever since you were a cub. ''

Touphy : '' You ' don't ' .. know me. ''

Golden : '' Oh there you go ' again ' , ( says in fake , strong feeling ) being all cold Touphy. I just wanted to see how my future Queen is doing. I'm always worrying oh so sick about her. Look at me , I'm a furry , love sick mess for her. Tell me how she's holdin' up. ''

Touphy : * as if patient sighs , because of Golden * '' If you must know , she's bone tired. As you can well imagine her day , she spend ' hours ' talking with Tawny in the royals mysterious den. , obviously about their history and probably '' getting even. '' Then she spend the rest of the day with the pride talking about you three's vile , furry , reappearances making your way here in Sundaya. Once the royals agreed to go out for a hunt - since the pride hasn't eaten anything all day - we all decided to hunt for the night , but Puffs here , was so tired , that she's sleeping this hunt out. She ' should be ' back to her sassy , filled with fire , furry self ' once ' .. she's had all of her rest. ''

Touphy : '' I'm taking her to some place within Sundaya grounds safe , so she can sleep peacefully and soundly. ''

Golden : '' Awoh. , isn't this romantically sweet you guys ? * he says as he almost slowly turns his furry , big head to look at Rose , Scales and Trails collision * * Rose gives Touphy a seductive , misleading look : the usual seduction flickering through her eggplant , furry eyes and all of the other cats whisper mock and whisper mockingly at Touphy's name as if in a chant * * Rose , Scales and Trails go silent once Golden continues to speak to Touphy * , sounds like you're ' just ' as in love with her as , myself and Tawny are put together ! ''

Touphy : '' Don't you ' dare ever ' .. compare me alongside you and Tawny. Lots of cats in Sundaya and in the Indenius pride ' already know ' that I HATE .. being of comparison to other cats. , ' especially ' .. joining with you and Tawny. Oh , I'd rather ' DIE ' .. than roll paws and claws with the most devilish lions myself ! ''

Again , Golden cocks his furry , big head backward at Touphy in a mocking , sassy way coming from the way Touphy was just talking to him just now.

Golden : '' Oh ! , well you told me ! Tonight ' may have ' been a mistake confronting you and trying .. to strike up a conversation with you. For the both of us are ' even more ' intimidated with one another than from the moment that we looked at one another just now. * Touphy lowly : '' Hmph's '' in strong disagreement at Golden * I've come here tonight to you , for two things : one : the Queen , two : for a lion competition. ''

Touphy : ( says in his smooth , as if humbly confident voice ) '' You've got my attention ... ''

Golden takes Touphy's comment as his way to tell him to continue speaking his mind. Golden does. Golden starts to give Touphy a trouble bringing , evil grin and a trouble bringing , evil , facial expression onto his furry face.

Golden : '' As I'm sure the Queen has told you .. and the Indenius pride today , yes it's true , I ' did ' propose to her inside of the poseidome alone. I already know .. that the poseidome ' isn't ' the most romantic place inside of Sundaya and on Sunday's royal grounds. I couldn't wait any longer. I want her and I want her now. Did she tell you .. that she loves me back ? , ''

Touphy : '' I swear to Kinny Golden. You ' better not ' be lyin' to me. Or just pulling my tail. ''

Golden : '' As much fun .. as that is Touphy , no .. I'm not doing any such thing to you right now. I have no intention of hurting you this way. - Wait , I ' really do ' , I'm freakin' lyin' to you right now about that one part. - Please , let me go on. Anyway , we caught up after last talking with each other for so long , we ' still ' need closure and maybe .. to '' get even '' , but most importantly , we need to give each other space and then come back to speak with each other once we've had our space. ''

Touphy : '' Oh .. you ' won't be ' doing that. ''

Golden : '' Oh ? , and why not. ''

Touphy : '' Because .. my Puffs ' won't be ' marrying you. She's marrying me. Didn't she tell you , that she's ' my ' fiancé ? , oh ? , she didn't tell you .. didn't she. ''

Golden : '' Ohh .. does it ' really matter ' how we say and rephrase our words Touphy. She never mentioned a fiancé to me. She said that she is in a relationship with another lion. ' Right after ' .. I stole a very sweet , sexual snout kiss from her. I'll never forget how ' sweet ' her snout kisses are ... ''

Touphy : '' Well ' that's ' going to be your ' LAST ' snout kiss from her , because I don't want her around you ' EVER ' again. I don't trust you. ''

Golden : ( says in an as if fake , melancholy tone of voice ) '' Oh ! , that is ' truly ' .. unfortunate and hurtful .. to hearrr , Touphy. Tum Tum trusted me , Tum Tum ALWAYS trusted me when you two lions rolled with us in the pride back in the past ! Whatever happened to ' you ' , trusting in me back then ? Did the Queen or Moon-light , poison your mind ? You ALWAYS .. trusted me. ''

Touphy : '' I'll be sure to remind Tum Tum to ' STOP ' , trusting you. ''

Golden : '' You could join him. ' NO cat's ' ever regretted trusting me. ''

Touphy : '' You know where that got me. ''

Golden : ( acts stupid , challenging Touphy) '' Awoh. , and why do you feel that way ? ''

Touphy : ( raises his voice in stormy betrayal ) '' Oh-ho , don't you play the innocent , little cub victim that you're ' so ' famous for playing , ever since we were cubs ! ' You ! ' , know why ! ''

Golden : ( his voice equally matches up with Touphy's stormy betrayal tone of voice ) '' Oh Kinny ' pleasssse ! ' , stop acting like you were involved in coldly naughty , cat acts ' just ' .. as much as I was ! We ' both ' had to play the little , cute , male lion scapegoat ! , we ' both ' had debts , deals and scores to pay ' and ' settle ! ( voice gets a little low as if having consideration not to wake up Queen Destiny ) And where did ' all ' of this .. lead us to big Touphy , hm ? Lying to our fathers , covering for each other , making sure ' we had ' .. each other's furry backs. That is what Moonlight always told us , didn't he. ''

Touphy : ( voice gets low as if Golden got him right where he wants him ) '' Please don't bring Moonlight into this. Myself and Tum Tum have such a warm , fuzzy , soft spot for him. ''

Golden : ( repeats his question in a calm , but very forceful way ) '' Didn't Moonlight .. ALWAYS .. tell the pride that. ''

Touphy : ( says in an as if softly defeated tone of voice ) '' Yes , Moonlight did. ''

Plainly , Rose quickly turns her furry , pretty head to look at the evil , evil lions and cats in Scales and Trails collision. Furry cats that are still onto their long or short , furry fours look at each other all at sea , a little sympathetically touched , unbalanced and at sixes and sevens. All not expecting Golden to carry on this heated part of the conversation with Touphy. This wasn't the plan that they all discussed after caluminatin' about royals : Queen Destiny , Tawny and any cats in the Indenius pride that the cat gang can't stand for years in Sundaya. All aren't exactly sure if this conversation - between their ring leader : Golden and Touphy - that they're watching both lions have , is part of Golden's plan for the royals and including the Indenius pride.

There is this quiet , two second silence between Golden , Touphy , Rose , Scales and Trails collision. Golden continues to look at Touphy in evil vicious and Touphy continues to look at Golden in cold confrontation some more than when both lions first started talking. After two more seconds go by in the pitch dark night , Golden tries to fill the silence. Now being the lion in this conversation with Touphy that feels as if he's obligated to keep their conversation rolling right now. Golden's voice is ' still ' calm , but in evil viciousness for Touphy and secretly , his second older brother : Tum Tum. But Touphy won't know that. Golden tries to change the subject as he said he would.

Golden : * content , warm chuckle in lovely , romantic thought of Queen Destiny * '' By Kinny , the Queen is ' even more ' beautiful when she's sound asleep. What isn't so beautiful about her. May I see her ? , may I touch her ? ''

Golden starts to almost slowly take his time walking up closer to Queen Destiny's overly fluffy , sexy , fine , royal , furry , long body that is ' still ' sound sleep. Passed being in deep sleep at this point , that all cats can hear Queen Destiny's soft , cute purrs , quiet inhales and exhales. The way Queen Destiny sleeps is soo precious. A very , very precious , furry sight to see.

Before Golden could get any closer to Touphy and Queen Destiny , Touphy lets out a powerfully loud snarl at Golden. , probably meaning something along the words of : '' Get back ! '' as he side steps into a very , very quick , side trot away from Golden's almost slowly , peaceful , harmless approach to Queen Destiny. I bet all of the Indenius pride could hear Touphy's powerful roar at this time of night.

Touphy : ( says almost quickly ) '' No you may not. ''

Rose tries to gently walk up a little closer to Touphy and stops walking exactly where Golden has stopped. Despite their sassy spats and duos , Rosy ' still does ' care a lot for Queen Destiny and in this love/hate friendship and past , lioness history between the two lioness , believe it or not , Rosy ' really does ' have her best , most protective interests at heart for Queen Destiny. Both lioness look after each other ' despite ' .. all of their differences.

Rose : ( says in her fake , flirty , seducing voice ) '' Pretty please , hot stuff ? ''

Feeling as if he's ganged up on or feeling dangerously alarmed , Touphy angrily turns his big , furry head to look at Rose. Angrily ready to protect his Queen at all costs. , even if it means death.

Touphy : ( snarl like very loud and defensively ) '' No ! , keep the hell away from her Rosy ! ''

After watching this protective , love , defensive act of display that Touphy just acted out right in front of himself , Rose , Scales and Trails collision - with a furry , hateful , challenging grin on his furry face - Golden starts speaking to Touphy in fake , curiously innocent mischief. His feelings of being vicious , evil , harmful and losing his patience with Touphy are already gone. , ' as if ' such feelings never acted out right in front of Touphy all this time both lions have talked.

Golden : '' O-kay Touphy , Oh-kay. ' We'll ' back off , ' we'll ' let you have the Queen ' jussst ' for tonight. But you're ' going to ' answer me this though : has she told you that she agrees marrying me yet ? I know that I'm being ' overly impatient ' and I can't seem to wait for her and even stay in one place with her anymore , but ' I don't think ' that I can last another day without her ! Even though .. it's ' ONLY ' been a day when we've reunited , when we approached each other for closure , when we told one another that we ' really do ' love each other , when we told each other that we ' need ' to '' get even '' ... but you understand the feeling. You want what you want. ''

Touphy : '' Oh , I ' do ' know and understand the feeling Gold. But she's at a loss with all three of us lions propsing to her ' all ' at once it seems ... as for you , we have not talked yet. All I know is , Puffs said yes to marrying me. I also spoke with Tawny way before you all came out of the poseidome. He said that he asked her to marry him too. Course she said '' yes '' the ' first time ' , but by the second time , their marriage was on hold because of the hyena invasion during her princess royal reign and Tawny never got a straight answer from her. She's still got Tawny's proposal at the back of her mind. And now your marriage proposal. Quit roarin' and get in line. ''

Golden rolls his flickering , dark golden , furry eyes at Touphy in serious boredom.

Golden : '' I ' don't ' .. have time .. '' getting in line '' with you .. and Tawny. * Before Touphy could react , Golden throws this in so that way it doesn't sound like he's - once again - trying to compare himself with Tawny again * NOT .. that I'm comparing you to him now. Think back there .. in that mysterious , royals den , maybe she said '' yes '' to Tawny's marriage proposal ? ''

Touphy : '' Probably yes. I ' can't stand it ' .. that my Puffs has so much history with him. ' We ' .. have so much history with Puffs , ' just as much ' as Tawny does. ''

Golden : '' Sounds to me for once , since we've talked now , you're comparing yourself to me and ' also ' .. being so nice to me. You're agreeing with me ... Why. ''

Touphy : '' And ' now ' we're disagreeing ... ''

Golden : '' See , ' that's what ' .. I like .. about you Touphy. You got a lot of hot and cold fire in you as a lion. It is a similar character trait that makes us alike from one another. ''

Touphy : '' You and ' I ' .. are NOTHING .. alike. Now ' get on ' with this lion competition already. You ' dare ' decide to compete against me ? Ha ! , I don't have any time for the furry likes of you. I got a Queen to put to bed now. , and you three .. are holding me up. Make it quick ! ''

Golden : ( goes on at his own pace , ' as if ' speaking faster because Touphy told him to ) '' Yes , I ' am ' challenging you Touphy. Oh I ' dare. ' I ' DARE ' .. with all of the love and how much love that I would LOVE .. to give the Queen my-self ! , ''

Touphy : '' What do you want from me Golden ? Speak up about it. ''

Golden : '' After I challenge Tawny and win : '' 60 seconds '' with him , I challenge you to : '' 30 seconds .. or less. '' No back up and your dearest , most precious Tum Tum ' can't ' help you neither. I see how you , him and Tim Tim ALWAYS fight together. , as brothers. Or should I say triplets ? When you fight with me , you'll be fighting solo. I'mma also throw in a deadly , no way out deal with you too. , ''

Touphy : ( says in a fake , interested tone of voice ) '' Oh ? , what kind of deal are we talkin' here ? ''

Golden : '' If I win : '' 30 seconds .. or less '' with you , you hand the Queen over to me and ' she ' becomes my wife. , whether she wants to become my wife or not. You give up on her FOR-EVER , you leave Sundaya and don't you ' EVER ' .. come back. Including your triplet brothers too and ' I ' .. take over your territory. And that's not all , ohhh ! , that's definitely not all. You'll pay ' every ' debt .. that you owe me , ' every ' deal .. that you owe me , ' every ' score .. that you've always settled with me , ' I ' take your brother away from you , you'll forever be seperated with him and I promise you : you'll NEVER .. be able to .. see Tum Tum .. ' EVER ' .. again. What do you say to that Touphy ? ''

Touphy : '' I agree .. on your terms to our deal Golden. But if ' I win ' : '' 30 seconds .. or less '' with you , you free my Queen from her chains , you leave Sundaya and NEVER .. come back - don't even roam ' out ' of Sundaya , because if you do , I will personally ' kill you ' myself and ' that's ' a promise - you leave the Queen alone and NEVER .. get her into any of your misleading conversations ever again. With my triplet brothers and I , when this hyena invasion is over ; you'll be in chains for the rest of you lyin' life and lastly ' you'll ' be behind a cat cage back at : '' Paws Repercussions. '' You'll also be repaying back ' every ' , diabolical plan and action .. that you've done and caused in this pride as well. , you'll also be re paying back ' every ' debt , score to settle , any of our feuds , troublesome cat buisness that we went through as cubs together and deals that we've made in the past. , ''

Touphy : '' you give up on loving the Queen FOR-EVER .. and she'll be married to me. Now what do ' you have ' to say to my side of our deal ? ''

Golden gives Touphy a devilishly impressed , wide , furry smile. A smile that's too evil and is ALWAYS up to no good.

Golden : '' I say , you ALWAYS drive a very hard and tough bargain Touphy. As a little cub , oh I know you Touphy , I know you ' more ' .. than you think. You , the Queen , Trick , Tawny and so many other cats ALWAYS .. know how to take a deal to the most DANGEROUS , limitless levels possible or to catkind. - I accept our deadly deal together. Make sure the Queen - and you're dearest brother : Tum Tum - ' don't ' .. know about our deadly deal. Or the next morning , you'll find the Queen gone .. and you ' won't ' have any trace of where she is. Understand the ' threat ' .. that I'm puttin' down ? ''

Touphy : '' Clearly ' more ' .. than I've ' ever ' .. understood something before. ''

Sometimes , this would be Touphy's fancy and tough way of saying : '' Yes '' to Golden.

Golden : '' Good. , and ' don't ' .. let me catch you trying to walk around our deadly deal. , or ' re-me-mber ' at the back of your mind , that you .. will NEVER .. be able to see the Queen ' EVER ' .. again. If I can't have her , if Tawny can't have her , if Slyi more , that royal pet of her's , ( Dan tient tant ) if you , if Tum Tum - like I ' don't know ' that you're second , older brother is crushing hard on the Queen - if R's second , older brother , my-self , if any cat in the pride can't have the Queen ; then NO CAT can. Understand how poisonously complicating this is getting ? .. ' all ' because lions like ' youuu ' and ' Tawnyyy ' .. refuse to let her go ? She's mine. ' I ' .. saw .. her .. first ... ''

Touphy : '' No she's not. ' She's ' mine. She's .. not .. inter-ested .. in .. you. Get it ? ''

Golden looks at Touphy in fierce incredulous.

Golden : '' No Touphy. , I ' don't ' think ' I do .. maybe you're going to have to spell it out for me .. or just say it slowly. Or , maybe I'm just slow. - I said , that I saw her first. ''

Touphy : '' And ' I said ' , I met her ' before ' you .. came along. We'll see if you get the Queen so badly once we're back in that poseidome : fighting ' all ' of the time ever since cubhood. You ALWAYS .. were that kind of lion that threw his weight around. You've always been so arrogant and narrassistic. You ' still ' that way ? ''

Golden : ( says in fake appreciation ) '' Ohhh Touphy , you know and remember me so well ... It really ' has been ' a lot of years huh. ''

Touphy studies Golden as if he's staring closely at dark , golden eyes , manical by heart , male cub that started to find pleasure in being an evil , foul playing mischief , rumor creator/spreading and trouble maker ever since he was just a cub. About the same time when Golden started to get under the cold , bad , cat influence of lions like Tawny , himself , Tum Tum , Fuse , Burn , Tim Tim , Ocedensis , Zip 'n Tip and other trouble giving and bringing lions in the Indenius pride. , here : in Sundaya.

Touphy starts to feel a little touched and a little familiar , soft , mean connection with Golden that just makes Golden deep inside right now , feel right at home , here : in Sundaya.

Touphy : ( his voice starts to speak very , very soft and warm ) '' Why yes Gold. Hehe ... * equally cold and fake chuckle as much as Golden feels * the years passed the ' both ' of us faster than we can blink. I HATE to say this , but uh , - all in all , with how we ' usually ' talk to one another , where ' are ' my cat manners. I forgot to say how wonderfully cold it is .. to speak with you here : in Sundaya again , to see you again .. back here in Sundaya from the hyena invasion , to see that you're doing perfectly fine all by yourself : all on your own. I .. never really got the chance to tell you that , since you stepped furry foot in here. In some way , you ' do ' need .. a bit of a cat , warm and fuzzy greeting. At least , take it from me. The ' ONLY lion ' by far .. that's actually had the deceny and set aside my differences with you , just to take the time to admit this to you. , ''

Touphy : '' it took A-LOT out of me ' more than ' you think. ''

Golden : ( his voice changes to be warmly pleased with Touphy ) * warmly pleased , soft chuckle * '' So I see big Touphy , so .. I .. see. Now you ' know ' both of us lions here ' aren't ' .. the mush gushy type. So .. don't expect a hug from me .. or an : '' I love you. '' Cuz I'm NOT going to say that. * Touphy softly laughs * , I'm ' really not. ' * Both lions laugh in cold harmony together for a bit * But - though I say otherwise - , it ' really does ' mean a lot to me .. that you're the first cat here in Sundaya - and in the Indenius pride - that has welcomed me and made me feel at home just now. I can tell .. as much as we feud and disagree - A-LOT - althroughout our friendship since cubs together , that you telling me this ' really did ' took a lot of you. I don't think you know just how much I appreciate that right now ... ''

Touphy : * his furry grin widens with a soft : '' Hmph '' sound * '' Golden , I think I ' already know ' .. how much you appreciate this. You already sound like you do. So no further explanation needed. K ? ''

Golden : * says as he nods his big , furry head once at Touphy * '' O.k. ''

Touphy : '' Once we get in that poseidome again , - with the Queen watching us - there's no holdin' back. Once we fight in that ring together , I guess by then .. we'll ' finally know ' which one of us .. gets to have the Queen fairly huh. We used to always tell each other since we were cubs , that the Queen would be our future wife and she would have ' all ' of our cubs together. Remember ? * Golden nods his big , furry head again in warm , silent remembrance with Touphy * , we always believed .. that as long as we had the Queen , we .. would have ' EVERYTHING ' .. that we wanted .. in our royal lives. Now look where we're at : here , near by the poseidome again. ''

Golden : ( speaking more softly ) '' Yup , here we go again. Touphy ? , please .. put up a damn good , wild fight with me .. when we fight each other inside of the poseidome while the Queen watches. , will you ? We just may earn brave licks onto our furry cheeks from her , if we impress her greatly this way. ''

Touphy laughs in warm greatness at Golden and himself's endless tricks just so the both of them can earn Queen Destiny's love , licks , furry , snout kisses and affections. Basically , finesse their way out of getting Queen Destiny's love , licks , furry , snout kisses and affection ' without ' .. having to chase after her much ' or ' challenge her.

Touphy : '' I know that we NEVER .. agree on anything Golden. But this - right now - , will be the ' first time ' that we'll agree on something. I'll try to remember that if you do ... ''

Golden : '' Agreed. , it's nice that we're agreeing on ' one thing ' for once ... ''

Touphy : '' Yeah , it kind of is ... I'll be off on my way to bring her to safety. ''

And on this second , Queen Destiny snarls into a love like , warm yawn as she sighs soft and quietly in a way that makes Touphy and Golden want to melt.

Golden : '' See you at dinner tonight ? , maybe ? ''

Touphy smiles a tiny bit warmly at Golden. , forming just a little turn from the left side of his furry , big cheek.

Touphy : '' Yea , maybe. ''

Golden : '' Rest up. ''

Touphy : '' So do you , Rosy , Scales and Trails collision. ''

Golden : '' Oh , I'll try to. ''

Rose : '' Oh we ' definintely will ' hot , furry stuff. ''

At the same time , with such a dramatic , on stage turn , both Touphy and Golden with Rose , Scales and Trails collision turn their long or short , furry backs on one another. , and start to walk with strong purpose through the pitched, shady darkness on Sundaya royal grounds tonight onto their long or short , furry fours. Touphy : heading to himself and Tum Tum's territory so Queen Destiny and himself could get much peaceful needed sleep and privacy as a cat couple. , and Golden , Rose , Scales and Trails roam elswhere ' round Sundaya now. Having wounding and cruel plans for Touphy , Tum Tum , the royals and the Indenius pride in mind and ready to give Sundaya pure , cat , furry HELL.

All is deadly quiet here .. in this Sundaya night.
