There was hardly a breeze flowing, but what little wind there was rustled the vegetation. A lone feline figure padded calmly through the grass, going no where in particular. The mature male lion was getting close to Priderock. His metallic gold eyes took in the stone formation, making sure no one had spotted him. Ryley stopped a moment, sitting down. He curled his tail around himself and neatly placed it upon his front paws. He took his eyes off the formation to give his chest a few quick licks. The jet black hair around his neck, belly, shoulders, and head was a bit scraggly; mostly from the fact he was on his own and the environment wasn't exactly friendly. After a quick wash he decided to stay for a bit. With that decision made Ryley slid down to the ground, elbows hitting the dirt. He gave a yawn and shifted around so that he was as comfortable as he could get on the ground. He rested his chin on his paws, still keeping a wary eye out for anyone that wanted to confront him. |

Alyeska sprawled out lazily at the base of Pride Rock. Her tail flicked easily to the side, and the warm sun warmed her lighter belly. This was one of the few places where she could sit and relax without being pestered. This area was considered relatively 'safe' by her parents, especially since there were so many other lions around to keep an eye on her. Still, the familiar blue bird, Calo, circled overhead. He wasn't too close to her this time, thankfully. He kept going in circles, starting off in smaller ones around Pride Rock, and then going outwards and farther and farther away. In fact, the only reason the princess knew he was there was because, well, he was always there. That, and a shadow occasionally crossed her closed eyes, although it was there and gone within a matter of moments. It was a beautiful, warm day in the Pridelands, and nothing could spoil it. A cool breeze blew over her fur, and Alyeska flickered open her eyes. Calo circled a little bit over her head, and she could tell he was getting ready to land. "What is it?" She yawned as he perched on a rock beside her. He didn't say anything--an unusual behavior for the bird. She glanced over at him lazily, noticing that he only pointed with a wing. The lioness followed his gaze, seeing an unfamiliar lion. Her head perked up to get a better look, but the bird only looked at her angrily, gesturing towards the safety of Pride Rock. But Alyeska wasn't going to listen to the bird. She pawed him off of the rock playfully before crouching into the grass. Easily, she crept through the grasses until she was as close to the rogue as she felt comfortable. "Hello!" She called happily, hoping that she hadn't woken up the lion from his nap. Hopefully, he knew that this WAS the Pridelands, and that no rogue could stay undiscovered for long. |

Ryley's left ear flicked towards the voice, his head followed suit a moment later. "Oh, hello." He greeted cheerfully, a hint of surprise in his voice. Although you could see just a hint of guardedness in his metallic gold eyes. He stayed where he was as to not appear intimidating. He hadn't noticed anyone else around when he first stopped so it was sort of a surprise to see this lioness. Not to mention she had approached and spoken to him so boldly. Most other lions would have chased him away. Ryley cracked a small smile, happy for the company of another of his species even if she was a stranger. |

"I'm not from here originally." Ryley replied upon hearing that she hadn't seen him around. "I'm from down South." He added, watching her get closer. It was true that he was rather relaxed while this strange lioness was drawing ever closer. It was mostly because the situation hadn't turned hostile yet. If it did he would've been on edge. "Why thank you for the welcome." He replied with a smile. The young lion noticed the other turn to look at Pride rock. "I take it you're not supposed to be talking to me." He inquired curiously. Although he could understand why she wouldn't be allowed to speak to rogues. Most of them weren't as nice as he was. "My name is Ryley by the way." He added quickly, "May I ask yours?" |

"My parents were rogues as well. We traveled up North after a while." Ryley explained, shifting his weight so that he was laying on his side but his upper body was still propped up by his elbows. He noticed it was starting to become early evening. "That's a nice name." He commented politely. "Time sure does fly, doesn't it?" He commented offhandedly while looking up at the changing sky. He got up after a few moments of silence and stretched out. By standing he revealed just how big he was though he was of average height and build. "I guess I should be moving on before your pride catches me here." Ryley murmured with a slight frown. He liked Alyeska's company strangely enough even though he had only just met her. Ryley was strange that way, seeming to be able to bond with strangers. Although there was no reason he couldn't stay and just avoid any patrols and the like, but he might as well play it safe for now. |

"Rogue life isn't all it's cracked up to be." Ryley replied while glancing over at her. "Always roaming, making sure you're not in anyone's territory. Not to mention the difficulty in catching a meal." He added with a frown, trying to remember the last time his stomach was actually full. Although he preferred his rogue life as the moment, it got pretty lonely pretty fast. His ears twitched a bit when Alyeska told him to be careful. He glanced over at Pride Rock while sitting back down. He chuckled lightly at her comment about having an excuse to be here. "I suppose I do." He agreed with a warm, friendly smile. He seemed to like smiling a lot. |

Alyeska's smile faltered a bit at the somewhat startling news. All that she'd heard about the rogues had seemed fairly positive. All former rogues that had joined the pride were here for other reasons, unrelated to being a rogue. Well...at least that's what she'd assumed. They'd said things like how the hunting was better here, or how they missed being with a group. Now that Alyeska thought about it, though...every single reason the rogues had was related to their lifestyle. "Well, you kinda messed up on that one." She said lightly, referring to his comment about staying out of territories. "Then again, I guess this is 'the vast and beautiful Pridelands'" She continued, her voice heavy with sarcasm. Her tail twitched a little bit, in time with her slight eye roll. She'd heard time after time just how beautiful the lands around here were. To Aly, though, they just seemed normal. Beautiful, but normal. |
