Where are you, my friends? [AW]

[Ben]

[atrb=border,0,true][atrb=width,450,true][bg=000000] Amongst the fading flags and broken, rusted tent poles, a male lion, sat and watched, as his home began to rot, his life going with it. He allowed the cold, frightened atmosphere pull him into the abyss, as he finally decided that sitting and fading was not going to help him what so ever. The dull golden male swished his tail, his tired joints cracking into moving mode, as he roared to the sky above, dark and cold, the moonlight breaking through the few clouds in the sky. His pale mane remained the only still thing on the male's body, as he tried to stretch without him falling off of the brick wall he was placed upon. He placed a paw in front of him, attempting to get off the yellow, decaying wall in one piece, groaning subtly as he thought of his friend who had disappeared, a leopard, whose name Ben couldn't remember. Sighing, the lion bounced forward, ignoring the pains from his unused joints, as he sprang back to life again, his muscles pulling together to make the agile lion he normally is. Ben growled to clear his throat, then headed towards a large, dulll red and grey circus tent, which had collapsed, leaving the remains of abused horses to rot and decay. Ben dared to go inside. He peeped his head in, taking in the rotting stink of flesh, and saw easy food - a dead horse. As he walked towards the black corpse, Ben saw the various whip marks embedded in the skin, leaving pink scars long and thin. Opening his jaw, Ben took a large chunk of flesh and devoured it quickly, having been sat on the wall for a day or too, ignoring his hunger needs. This meat, although old and dirty, was a change from birds and wandering cats, which were his normal diet nowadays. Ben ate as much as his golden belly could carry, then glided silently towards a large rift in the circus-grounds, and saw a great, white land of snow and ice, a mountainous area. Ben smiled an adventurous smile, but decided to have a bit more of a wander around, just to see if anyone else was willing to join him in his adventures. “UNLEASH THE CIRCUS.”

[Fiera]

[atrb=border,0,true][atrb=width,550,true][bg=000000] Viridian optics opened to the sound of large paws upon the cracked cement of the floor. Someone, something, was moving, wandering the expanse of the circus grounds. Fiera herself had been dozing peacefully in the confines of her rusting cage, though the large gap between two of the broken bars was more than big enough to allow her to escape. Thunderheart had disappeared, and so she saw no real need to wander. Her stomach, however, growled an angered protest, and so it was with great hesitance that the lithe figure of the ivory tigress slipped from the shadows of her lair. The scent of a decaying horse lured her to the corpse - and the company of a large, golden lion, not far from the body. "Excuse me," The pale woman excused herself in once-silken tones, now hoarse from the lack of using them. "But I do hope I am not disturbing you?" “I'm still painting flowers”

[Ben]

[atrb=border,0,true][atrb=width,450,true][bg=000000] Ben was startled at the sound of a female voice. He quickly turned round on his heels and stepped backwards, frightened out of his wits. He then saw the pale tigress, and listened to her, and decided she wasn't a threat what so ever. “It-it's okay. W-would you like some?” he stammered, gesturing the female to the decaying horse. “I'm full anyway.” he said, as his body stopped shaking from fear and shock. He cleared throat again, then stepped backwards from the black horse carcass, and decided to introduce himself. “My name...is Ben. Ben Dagur.” he said shyly, trying not to look into the ivory tigress's eyes. “I was just about to go exploring into the unknown land behind the large mountain.” he muttered, thinking about whether his friend, the leopard, escaped beyond the massive structure of stone and cement into the vast unknown beyond the mountain. “UNLEASH THE CIRCUS.”

[Fiera]

[atrb=border,0,true][atrb=width,550,true][bg=000000] The tigress dipped her head in gratitude and lowered herself to dig in to her meal, pristine ivories tearing through the soft flesh, mechanical tail flicking behind her in an alert, repetitive manner. Lifting her elegant face yet again, she listened to his introduction with what she thought was a polite fashion; she had only ever interacted with her mother and Thunderheart, and attempting to communicate with the tall lion before her - Ben, she soon discovered, Ben Dagur - was a nerve-wracking challenge. "I am Fiera," The ivory woman murmured sheepishly, circular ears pressed flat against her skull uncertainly. "Fiera Meccaci." Her jade gaze traced the towering figure of the moutain, and wondered what adventures and mysteries lay beyond it. Perhaps, she thought with a pang of grim hope, Thunderheart would be waiting for her. "If you are venturing beyond the mountain," She began reluctantly. "would you mind I joined you, perhaps?" “I'm still painting flowers”

[Ben]

[atrb=border,0,true][atrb=width,450,true][bg=000000] ((OOC: It will have to be short, I need to go soon!)) Ben eyed the tigress uncertainly, but he found himself trusting her. "Fiera.” he repeated, silently, just testing the word on his tongue. "It is nice to meet you.” Ben said, straightening himself up as he understood the female wasn't going to attack him. She then gazed at the mountain, as Ben stared, following her line of sight. She then asked, about joining him beyond the mountain, out into the unknown. Ben was somewhat startled, but thought it was alright for her to tag along. “That would be okay. I wonder what is there, who we will meet.” He said, a little to quick in his growing excitement that grew from his curiosity. “Unleash the circus.”

[Fiera]

[atrb=border,0,true][atrb=width,550,true][bg=000000] (OOC: That's fine :D) The tigress secretly enjoyed how the lion spoke her name - she had not heard her name spoken by another animal since she was but a mere mewling cub, listening to her mother's steady heartbeat and her father's fables. "The pleasure is mine," The ivory woman offered a ghost of a smile, which only broadened at his excited tone as he spoke of what may lay before the mountain. "Thank you for allowing me to accompany you. I'm sure our adventure will be grand!" “I'm still painting flowers”

[atrb=border,0,true][atrb=width,450,true][bg=000000] (OOC: Blaze may have to join this thread, that okay?) Ben listened to the tigresses reply, and Ben's curiosity exploded into a sense of happiness. “You're welcome.” he replied, smiling from ear to ear. He began to walk forward, slowly, and gestured to Fiera to follow. He glanced quickly at the circus grounds, and sighed softly. This was his home. He had seen many things, humans, fiery rings, creatures without manes, everything. Ben's bronze ear twitched. Through the circus grounds, a strange rumbling could be heard. Ben was most certainly startled, and the ground seemed to vibrate subtly. He shot his single blue eye towards the mountain, a huge white beast that towered over the circus. Something wasn't right. He looked back at Fiera with a frightened look in his eye, and felt himself wanting to run. The top of the white mountain seemed different...almost...bare. The ice had moved! What was happening, why now? Ben completely ignored his sense to help Fiera, sprinting for the gates that blocked off the circus from the world beyond. Guilt's knife stabbed him in the heart, and he knew it was wrong to continue without the tigress. He stopped, his paws skidding along the earth, as he bolted back to Fiera, and roared a warning to the entire circus... “Unleash the circus.”

[Fiera]

[atrb=border,0,true][atrb=width,550,true][bg=000000] (OOC: Yeah, sure! :) Damn it! My internet failed just as I posted >:/) The ivory tigress began to follow the bronze lion as they began their adventure. His soft sigh had not escaped her sensitive hearing, and she was pondering over whether she should enquire as to what was on his mind when the ground growled its protest. The ice and snow that had blanketed the mountain's crown had seemed to shift, and Ben's single blue eye mirrored the terror of her own emerald gaze. And suddenly, the lion was gone, darting away towards the gates. Fiera did not blame him; instead, she was engrossed with the memory dancing behind her viridian optics, of a broad-shouldered tiger fleeing from her without even a glance at her. Ben's returning figure, however, tore her from her trance, and she slipped into place beside the lion's lean shape on nimble paws, adding her own voice to the warning as his roar shook the tattered remains of the grounds. Fiera threw a small, soft smile at Ben and mumbled, "Thank you for coming back, Ben." Perhaps he had not returned for the tigress, but she was grateful he had cared enough, for one reason or another, to come back. “I'm still painting flowers”

[Ben]

[atrb=border,0,true][atrb=width,450,true][bg=000000] (OOC: this is Ben's last post here, I will start a new thread in the mountain ) Fiera's words temporarily warmed Ben's heart. “You're welcome. Come on, we have to go quickly!.” He used his heavily furred head to gesture moving towards the gates, and he sprinted off, this time slower, and made sure that Fiera followed. The snow and ice still came tunneling down, and the rumbling seemed louder than before. The size of the mountain was tremendous, with enough snow to cover the entire circus. Ben tried desperately hard to keep focused on the task ahead - getting him and the ivory tigress out alive. This task seemed almost impossible. The gates seemed to move further away the more he ran, and he knew he hadn't drank for a while, dehydration playing tricks on his mind. He occasionally looked back at Fiera, making sure she made it to the gate okay, and when he finally reached it, he took a step into the open, natural world. The rumbling got louder, but seemed far away now. So did Fiera. He stopped outside the rusted gates, and waited for the tigress to come to him. - BEN HAS LEFT THE GROUNDS - “UNLEASH THE CIRCUS.”

[Fiera]

[atrb=border,0,true][atrb=width,550,true][bg=000000] (OOC: Cool :3 Hope you don't mind if I injure Fiera a little XD) Fiera nodded as the muscular lion urged her onwards, and easily kept up with the male, sticking close to his flank as they raced through the labryinth of the circus grounds. The earth's grumbling grew in volume to a large roar, and suddenly the gates - freedom - seemed so very far away. The ivory female's heart drilled against her chest, and she was acutely aware of how much snow was rushing towards them, how ragged her breathing had become, and how desperately she wanted the both of them to escape. Please let us live. Please let us live! Fiera was afraid, terrified, but she did not reveal this, offering Ben a grim, determined smile whenever he glanced at her over his shoulder. "We'll make it." All confidence she had gained as they had neared the gates disappeared as the tigress' right foreleg was caught between two plates of cracked cement. A hiss of pain whispered past her obsidian lips, but she had no time to carefully pry her leg from its vice. Tugging and twisting, Fiera pulled her leg free and closed the distance between herself and the rusted gates. She would deal with her injuried foreleg later. She had just escaped death with Ben. -FIERA EXITS- “I'm still painting flowers”

(OOC: i hope this is ok ,if my writing isn't good, and it doesn't make sense, sorry)

As the ground started to rumble Blaze watched as a lion and a tigress started sprinting toward the circus gate, Blaze was shocked she thought there had been no one else on these horrible grounds.

She took a step forwards, “now is the time for me to break free” she thought. “i don't want to die in this place, i want to live my life, and see what i always dreamed of”. So she sprinted towards the gate that the tigress was just slipping through, She jumped towards the gap, She got through and tumbled into the bushes, as she stopped tumbling she lay still on ground, panting “i made it” she thought.

She lifted herself up off the ground and looked towards where the tigress and lion were, trying not to be seen she slowly made her way to them.
