All Play and No Work

[Chinook]

The new group intrigued the fawn. He shoved past Geno and walked over to the group.

"Hey there," he said puffing out his chest and trying to make his horns shine, "I'm Chinook. Prince of this here forest!"

[Marcus]

Kara nodded slowly in response to Swafi's question. She still didn't feel all that comfortable around the cub, but that would hopefully wear off soon enough. "I... I don't know what happened to her." she admitted, her gaze shifting to the ground shamefully after a moment. Some help she was.

Marcus followed after Chinook, thinking Geno would as well. He was glad they were finally going to help whoever had called out for them. Though, as soon as he reached the group his eyes fell on a familiar red pelt. "Kara?!" Marcus asked.

And with that, the other kit's gaze went up again. Kara's ears perked back up when she realized why the voice was familiar. "Marcus! What are you doing here?" she asked quickly. ...Oh, right. The deer had introduced himself. How rude of her to not introduce herself after that. "S-Sorry... I'm... I'm Kara. Marcus' sister." Kara said at last.

[Swafi]

"What?!" Swafi growled, shoving his nose in Chinook's face, "If there's ANYONE who's a prince around here, it's me!!" First stripped of the crown, and NOW someone was trying to take his title of Prince. Swafi would NOT let that happen. He sat down and puffed out his chest proudly. "I'M Swafi, Prince of the Pridelands and soon to be KING." He glanced at Chinook haughtily. "I think that makes ME the superior one." He totally ignored the two foxes and the other deer, wanting to make the point known that HE was indeed the Prince.

[Chinook]

Dumb. The deer was dumb. He had no concept of predators and prey. His ears pinned back and he moved his head so he could show off his horns. He scraped at the ground.

"Nuh uh!" Chinook said, "Who died and made you king of the forest fuzzball? I'm the prince of this forest! Not you!"

[Katya]

Katya was fluttering through the forest, trying to memorize the paths she'd taken. It'd been a few hours since she'd found herself in this strange wood, and she figued that while she was here, she might as well set herself up some boundaries.
An insect buzzed past her face, but she ignored it. She wasn't hungry, nor did she want to bother hunting. Honestly, she was getting tired. She hoped there was a stream nearby.
Suddenly, she flew right over a clearing, to see a deer and a lion yelling at eachother, some foxes, another fawn , another lion, and a spotted dog. She stopped in mid-flight and hovered, observing the fighting from a distance, chortling quietly. "Aaah, boys. Watch'ya gonna do?"

"No, -I- am!!" Swafi growled back, once again standing to stick his nose right in Chinook's face. "No stupid antelope's gonna be a king of anything!! Lions like me are actually important! So there!" Ignorantly, Swafi didn't realize Chinook was not in fact, an antelope. But he didn't know what else to call him. He sure wasn't a zebra, or a hippo...

[Chinook]

"Are not! Are not! Are not!" Chinook was just as stubborn as the little lion. "And I'm not a...a cantaloupe...? I'm a deer! And one day I'm gonna be bigger than you are you puny little thing!" He snorted, tracing his hoof in the dirt.

"Wanna spar? You're the fake king and all! Fight for your kingdom, wuss!"

[Pamela Duck]

Pamela walked through the forest, sighing. It was actually pretty quiet around here. She missed back in her home forest where the animals would wolf call after here. Sure, it was annoying, but it at least sounded like a forest. Here, it was just so deathly qui-

She stopped as her ears pricked. Voices. She snapped her head in that direction and smiled. "Finally, at least thomeone~!" She clasped her hands and began running to the voices. She arrived to what seemed to be a gathering of deer, pumas, and foxes, though they all looked quite young.

Nevertheless, she still walked up to them in such a way as to make a bold impression. "Hello, everyone~!"

[Swafi]

"I'll fight you any time of the day and night...DEER." Swafi sneered. "In fact, I eat animals like you for dinner.... I wonder if you taste as good as you smell." He pawed the ground like a bull getting ready to charge.

"I'm a lion, and lions get twice as big as deers do." Well, he assumed they did. Didn't they..? Yeah they did, and he wasn't taking orders from prey. Maybe he should take a bite out of this little smartaleck..

[Chinook]

"Blah blah blah," Chinook said, scraping the ground in a similar fashion, "Let's get to sparrin' then if you think you're so tough!" The little deer lowered his head, preparing for a charge. Oh boy if Gurri and Pascal were only here, then things would be different! Sure he'd still be fighting this lion but with a better audience! He barely noticed the approaching creature.

[Pamela Duck]

Pamela cleared her throat as she noticed the two younger animals about to start. "Excuthe me~! Do you all live in this foretht~?" She sashayed her hips a bit in hopes to catch any males' attention. She even flipped her long hair and batted her eyelashes.

[Katya]

Katya decided that now would be the best time to swoop down and introduce herself what with the newcomer and the cub and fawn about to fight.
She fluttered down to a branch skirting the clearing, spread her wings wide open and said with her Russian accent, "Allrighty, boys, calm down. No need to bite eachother's heads off. It doesn't matter who's a prince and who's not, anyways, not here at least."
She nodded and said, "And by the way, my names Katya."

[Marcus]

Marcus was just glad someone had decided to try and break up the fight. He didn't think he could stop Chinook and Swafi from fighting, especially given the size difference of him, the deer, and the lion cub. He finally took notice of the fact that Kara had, as usual, retreated behind him. The older of the two kits rolled his eyes. Kara really needed to come out of her shell soon. As the bat introduced herself, he smiled a little. "No, I don't live here. My sister doesn't, either. We just found ourselves here. I'm Marcus, by the way." Marcus introduced himself.

"I... I'm Kara." Kara squeaked. So many new people. She didn't know if she could handle it. The fact that Flash still needed help rose in her mind, and at last Kara took a couple of steps out from behind Marcus and motioned to the white and gold colored puppy. "C-Can we help her now? It looks like she... she needs help. I... I don't know what's wrong, but she needs help standing." Kara said at last.

[Flash]

Flash - who was feeling quite forgotten since the deer had shown up - shot an appreciative glance towards Kara. "I had a fall, and I think I broke something." she explained to the foxes, trying to turn to see them better - and regretting it as another pain shot through her chest.

[Swafi]

Swafi had been all set to pounce Chinook to the ground right then and there... he was still hungry after all and the deer reminded him of the antelope and gazelle back home. But the weird-looking duck creature and foxes interrupted and distracted him. Standing up straight again, Swafi cast a disdainful gaze at the white spotted puppy.
"Well why'd you go and do THAT for? That's stupid!" He sat down and began scratching behind his ear with a back paw. "You outta be more careful!"
