She hadn't really been paying attention to her surroundings. Drifting in and out of her own consciousness. Perceiving her own reality when a sudden snap made her head jerk to the side and her eyes locked on a small creature. A child. Slowly her head tilted, pastel colored orbs seeing but also not believing. Who would so carelessly allow for their child to wander so far away? Did they not know that there were merciless dangers in the world. Dangers that lurked just underneath their own skin. The lioness listened with a slow pulling forward of her rounded ears at the child's words and she allowed herself to move. Slowly shifting her weight from one paw to another, rolling her shoulders. "Swordskit, such a pretty pretty name. I simply adore it." She breathed softly, her head lowering down. Again that rumor in her stomach, that pain in her heart.
Parents should learn to cherish their children. Shouldn't they? Keep them safe because one day. The parents won't be there, they will leave them. They will abandon them. Blood will stain their paws and the world will grow bleak. It wasn't her fault. It couldn't have been. Anger pulsed in her vision. Her muzzle curled slowly, teeth showing in a cruel smile as she began to circle the child. She was going for blocking his escape route, to stand where he had come from. "Children shouldn't wander. But then again...your parents should be more attentive. That just means they didn't deserve you." Just like her own. Suddenly she moved, eyes going black and pink becoming deep and vile. She aimed to smack the child with her horned skull just to daze and sling him across the ground, a laughter breaking from her jaws.
