As the rain continued to pour down from the dark skies above the group lined up with anticipation, plenty of extended claws from various lions and lionesses of your pride digging into the muddied field that they all found themselves in preparing for what's to come. Many months now of high pressure, broken border lines and attacks on the weaker or singled out explorers of the Pride has boiled over. Messengers has been left to fight or flight and the intentions has been clear by the other party, there seems to be a battle going down for the lands this time around and everyone is getting prepared.
On the curved hills nearby you can see a several big dark figured pass on over, units seemingly moving as one and growing larger with every step they take, your vision almost tunnels as the situation you find yourself in really starts to set in, your body tenses up.
A firm pawstep in a small puddle next to you jolts you back to where you're at, as a dark maned lion now appears next to you looking determined with a risen head scouting further ahead, probably witnessing the same sight your eyes had just been fixated on a moment ago. You think of the other times you've seen them, the sunny days near the pride area, relaxing afternoons at the waterhole, casual chats next to the big trees, things just seem so different now... You notice his eyes intensely lock with yours all of a sudden as he probably noticed you looking at him, catching you a bit off guard in the moment.
Time freezes for just a few seconds as the red eyes of the lion seemingly fills you with some sort of extra confidence or even unity you didn't feel a few breaths ago, and you notice him lower his head as he speaks out in the otherwise quiet field filled with falling rain and mumbles and whispers:
"Keep your eyes on me fluff and stay close, It's about to get dicey."

and felt a bit inspired by that later fight scene in TLK:SP, their artwork looked perfect for some light manipulation. I find it a bit tricky to perfectly channel some of the lion self into stories at times and just insert personal thoughts relating to one self, initially I just wanted to post this and some sort of leadership quote but it didn't feel right without context and instead I opted for a bit of writing, hopefully lowering that cheesyness a tiny bit but adding some content. Red is mostly gentle and avoid conflict, but absolutely no pushover in a "canon" or HC setting and a leader of sorts able to go the distance for more than himself. Here I just chucked in some pre-battle scene in my head with the edit I did for fun.
