King 3

Chapter 3 : Chats and a disappointment

Flaunti steps inside the family den as Queen Destiny looks thoughtfully at the charm bracelet. , driven by it's design that was recently given to her from her Uncle on her furry , right paw.

Queen Destiny and Flaunti's Uncle spoke up.

Uncle : " Hey Flaunt. , how are you ? "

Flaunti : " Great Uncle ! , ( almost softly after raising his voice ) until I eavesdropped on what you and my big sis , we're talking about. "

What Uncle is about to say it's exactly his way of trying to get Flaunti to forget about what he heard or saw between himself and Queen Destiny.

It ' almost ' works.

Uncle : " Think fast ! "

Uncle grapples competitively with his grandson : Flaunti as the two , dominant , male lions dodge evasively from one another very froliosomly. Uncle spoke up quickly as he pins Flaunti to the solid ground automatically after two minutes. On his furry , long back and furry head back as Uncle's furry arms/paws pin directly onto his furry throat , sitting onto his furry stomach and his long , furry , hind legs.

Flaunti softly snarls as his way of tapping out like in a wrestling match as he twists his furry , long back to break free from Uncle's unbearable , furry weight and his hard grip. , even if he's losing valuable energy and it's not getting him free.

Uncle : ( says quickly ) " One , two , three ! * laughs * ( normal voice ) I win ! Your o'l Uncle's still got it ! , No lion - or lioness - messes with your Uncle. "

Flaunti : * laughs * " I let you win. "

Uncle : " Oh ? , well I guess you're not going to be up until you say " Uncle. " "

Flaunti : * sucks his teeth * " Seriously ? ! , you won the match. What more could you possibly want ? "

Uncle : " What's the magic word ? "

Flaunti : ( says in disinterest ) ( low and normal toned ) " Uncle ... "

Uncle spoke in gloating as he slowly comes off of his grandson. , giving him his personal space - , then sat upright wherever he pleases.

Uncle : " You could've beaten me if you weren't so slow ! I pinned you within seconds ! Which proves you wouldn't last in a match against other male lions. "

Flaunti : * scoffs * " I'll get you next time. , we'll see who will be gloating then. "

Uncle : " I must admit that you are indeed greathearted. , you have gotten better in movement , but took too long in letting your opponent remain alive. Having him - which is me , overrule you. "

Flaunti : " When you put it that way , you are so grating , ' I ' swear it ! "

Uncle : " You've done well m'boy. A strong fighter you are just like your o'ld pa. Just like fluffy-mc-puffy. "

Queen Destiny : '' ... ''

Queen Destiny does not respond to Uncle in her usual , nasty frown. , as she begins to get into her laying position on the right , furry side of her stomach with a swift sound of long , furry , hind legs and hard , furry , front arms/paws that glide against the dirt ground.

Flaunti : " So , the talk that happened before. , what were you and Desi going on about ? "

Uncle : ( still lying , still trying to cover up his fight with his eldest granddaughter ) " Oh , just a misunderstanding is all. , but I won't discuss it with you right now. She seems glum after we talked. "

Uncle : ( says softly to Flaunti ) " - Just take a look at her m'boy. "

Flaunti pauses to glance at the shower of rain pour down in front of the family den like a shield as if blocking their only exit , then to his older sister who still laid down showing her golden , yellowish , brown and fluffy fur.

He starts , but speaks softly even if normal toned.

Flaunti : ( a bit squrrielly ) " About what Desi said earlier , uh .. is it ' really ' true ? Me and her .. and our parents ... - "

Uncle pauses failing to explain and ' in ' loss of words.

Uncle : " ... - "

Uncle : " I see you .. must've .. overheard us. Uh ... - "

Queen Destiny quickly interrupts her Uncle. Flaunti quickly turns about his furry , big head while bringing his attention to his eldest sister. If Uncle won't explain - and maybe even lie too - maybe Queen Destiny. A furry look of discomfit and still fraught from everything and anything that he overheard. Flaunti doesn't know what's going on between Queen Destiny and Uncle , but one of his royal family members better say something quick , before he loses it and freaks out all stressy.

Queen Destiny : ( says in a forceful , vice like way ) " Tell him .. the truth , the whole truth , ' ONLY ' the truth and nothing but the truth. "

Uncle : " You up fluffy ? , * chuckles softly * Just like your mother. , observant and quick to be alarmed. Driven to her surroundings. "

What her Uncle said makes Queen Destiny smile a little but fretful deep inside. Or - if she had the energy to , try to roll her dark and light , furry , brown eyes. , used to him trying to make the bad of things go with compliments that make her lose her guard. That was something the Queen of Sundaya couldn't ignore , hide or even push away.

Uncle : * sighs deeply * " Who am I to be fooling ? , I should've held the truth in from my grand kids. , even ' if ' I was trying to protect them. Y-Yes , sadly. "

Uncle's sentence alarms Queen Destiny fast. Way , TOO fast. She jumps as if a bug came to her and lands onto one of her furry , long , hind legs. , or both. Or paws to furry , long arms. Not minding the roof , she hits her furry , small head snarling softly in pain and irritation then spoke up. , truly angered , while gesticulating melodramatically onto just her long , furry , hind legs with her long , furry arms/paws. , still facing Flaunti and her Uncle.

Queen Destiny : " I knew it was true ! Much from what Dal was really expecting ! , and I'm ' way too ' glad that I agreed with him ! - I can't believe you would hide some useful information like that from * snarl like but deep * ' your own ' furry , flesh and bone ! , of tooth and claw ! - "

Queen Destiny : " After all what Flaunti and I been through as soon as ' you ' left us first ... "

Uncle : " Now fluffy I know you're worked up about this but - "

Uncle : ( aloud ) " WHAT ? ! DALE ? ! "

Flaunti : " Well ' that ' wasn't a good choice of words Desi. "

Queen Destiny : " No if's and's or but's ! "

Flaunti spoke up full heartily like a know at all.

Flaunti : " Don't forget " also's " " and's " " I can explain's. '' "

He smiles at Queen Destiny showing off his keen teeth. , speaking in a knowledge : '' Tell you off '' way.

Queen Destiny faces Flaunti while gnashing as he moves back in fright giving her a nervous : '' Please continue '' furry look. Little , weak chuckles showing all teeth into a wide , full smile and half lidded , furry , dark blue eyes squished to his pupils perfectly.

Queen Destiny : " NOT .. helping ! "

Uncle : " May I speak your highness ? "

Queen Destiny : ( normal voice ) " ' Now ' you can. "

Flaunti : " Unc , ( nickname ) I really think you ' don't ' want to do that. "

Queen Destiny : ( in annoyance ) ( raises her voice ) " FLAUNT ! "

He widens his furry , dark blue eyes in alarm of hearing his name from his older sister. His furry , big ears go up into the air too.

Flaunti : " Shuttin ' up. "

Listening , she folds her furry , long arms/paws over her furry , big boned chest and lets her furry , left hip hang out even if her long , sexy , furry , hind legs stick close together as always. Her furry , long tail sticks out into the air behind the right side of her hip swirling in upset response.

Uncle : " You and Flaunti's mother and father had no other option. I'm pretty sure you don't need them anymore. "

Queen Destiny : ( still speaking in a forceful , vice like tone of voice ) '' You lier ! , Mama and Dad ALWAYS have another option. They would've ' NEVER ' founded us , the way that ' you did. ' And Moonlight was ALWAYS around to back them up , always offer support , help .. ' and ' have the royals backs whenever it was necessary. So Flaunti and I ' know ' you're lying. What , you think we're stupid ? ! , do we look like cubs that need you anymore ? No ! , we don't ! ''

Flaunti : '' Yeah ! , don't you know that Moonlight's decision ALWAYS affects our royal parents royal , decision making ? , Moonlight had ALWAYS been around us since we were cubs ! He's witnessed this ' whole ' , royal family's birth. And every cat's royal or non royal birth in the pride. I agree with Desi on this one. You are NOT telling the complete truth. I ' may ' .. have been a cub at the time , but I ' do know ' one thing. , ''

Uncle : ( says out of soft evilness , searing ) '' And what is that , my out of place m'boy ? ''

Queen Destiny : '' Tell him Flaunt. ''

Queen Destiny says to Flaunti in very soft encouragement. , having Flaunti's back and he is having her back.

Flaunti : '' Moonlight witnessed ' all ' furry , royal time periods in our life. ' Including ' our '' founded '' royal , cubs days that ' you ' left us all behind. , and comin ' back here hidden in malice , grudges , devilry , bad blood for how the ' WHOLE ' , royal family turned ALL OUT hostile on you. , and then told you to leave Sundaya. When you didn't leave Sundaya , the grown royals and Sundaya's royal reinforcements ran you ' out ' of Sundaya themselves ! Then you come back here , to us , acting like NOTHING .. has ever happened to us before. How dare you. No wonder the cats in the pride didn't greet you and didn't welcome you here , in Sundaya. You're NOT welcome ! ''

Queen Destiny : '' Flaunt and I ' will ' take it upon ourselves - as long as the rest of my royal family will , when they return back to Sundaya again - to speak to Moonlight personally ! , about what ' REALLY ' happened .. when you '' founded '' us. Because you packing on lie to us , after lie , after lie , after lie , af-ter lie. ' Especially ' to Flaunt. He's NOT stupid Unc. Enough with the malice siding and trying to get Flaunt to side with me. He's going to stay with me ' until ' you leave Sundaya. ''

Uncle's personality changes ' very quickly. ' His whole , furry , facial expression to fake wisdom giving , conning , royal , lion behavior turns greedy , overruling , overpowering , fighting , cruel , controlling and stubborn. Uncle knows that the remaining royals in this royal family : Queen Destiny and Flaunti aren't stupid. Well Flaunti , is no longer stupid. He's not a cub anymore and he can't try to side and use Flaunti - like how he secretly used to - just get a royal on his side. So as he remains Guardian of Sundaya , he had to patiently wait .. until his royal parents left Sundaya - they're NOT dead or anything bad like that - the same time that he fled from Sundaya because the grown royals last ordered him to ; and wait until it's just two royals left inside of the royal family - Queen Destiny and Flaunti. , separate the two royals away from each other , get the royals to side away from each other , use one royal for power and when he's done using that royal , he's going to challenge that royal , win and then exile that royal ' out ' of Sundaya. Just so that he could stay on top again , stay in Sundaya and NEVER lose his royal title as : Guardian of Sundaya.

Uncle : '' Listen here , you stubborn , ungrateful , ego havin ' , pride ruling , difficult and ri-di-culous cats that Lad La La and Fein ' forced ' me to look after you. During you spoiled royals , cub hood days here in Sundaya , I've been bustin ' my furry , long and now old ' back ! ' , tryin ' to protect you all , look after you , be a good Guardian of Sundaya : that's supposed to guard with honor , love , respect , like a fighter and like a lion , but you both , have been making it ' VERY ' difficult ! I didn't like either of you greedy for royal power and royal glory in Sundaya anyway , but if you Fluff .. and Sass hadn't planned several times to expose my true intentions behind being a Guardian of Sundaya , then I would ' still ' be welcomed here , still as a grown royal , in Sundaya. , ''

Uncle : '' you both better ' WATCH ' .. who you both thinking you're talking to ! Alright ? ( raising voice aloud ) You both are nothin ' but early , royals in the making , here in Sundaya. Ya didn't rule long enough in your very own royals reign to even know what's going on in Sundaya , the royal history behind Sundaya and how the grown royals ' once ' became their own royal coalition that strengthen and powered Sundaya , for what this pride now is ! Neither of you young royals know .. what's ' really ' going on with grown , young royals like me , Fein , Trick , Lad La La , Red , Moonlight and Shine. You young royals ALWAYS tryin ' to be on top , turn away from us grown royals and tell us ! .. what to do. When it's not .. supposed .. to be .. that way ! As long as I'm here , YOU two .. LISTEN .. TO ME ! ''

Queen Destiny : '' I don't need to listen to ANY .. SUCH .. THING , that you say to me Uncle. You ' WON'T ' .. tell me what to do anymore , as long as I'm Queen of Sundaya. I could exile you in a hurry. ' DON'T ' play with me. ''

Uncle : '' Oh , my arrogant dear. I'm ' still ' a grown royal whether I've been ' long ago ' exiled out of Sundaya or not. I can do whatever I want. I may be old , but I am ' still grown ' and I can go wherever I please. Even if it means staying ' right here ' .. in Sundaya. I won't be going ' anywhere ' .. and you don't have that much royal power to stop me. ''

Queen Destiny : '' We'll see ' bout that Uncle. We'll see. ''

Flaunti almost slowly starts to widen his furry , cerulean , dark blue eyes at Uncle. Queen Destiny is right. He better open up his big , furry , dark blue eyes and see Uncle's true , real colors. For as long and as much as he knew from Dale , Sassy and Queen Destiny , Uncle always shows his true , real colors super , quickly fast. No wonder why it was easy during Princess Destiny's royal reign back in the past , for the young royals to plan and plot to expose Uncle's true , real colors as Guardian of Sundaya , for ALL of the grown royals : Moonlight , Queen Lad La La , Fein , Red , Trick and Shine to see. And - get this - Red back then , had been the royal , to try to also use Uncle and side with him , all because he's always ' so close ' with young royals , especially Princess Destiny and during Princess Destiny's royal reign , Red has been trying so hard to get Princess Destiny , involved in his trickery , cat riot , trouble some plans with her. , to use her for royal power , to own and control her , so that his eldest son : Prince Tawny , can marry Princess Destiny. , ' right after ' he takes the time to give Prince Tawny his royal , Kingly crown. ' And ' control to rule his lion coalition.

See how messy this all is ?

Flaunti : ( says quietly ) '' I am ' so glad ' that I'm siding with Desi on this. , ' and ' I'm on her side. I can't believe what I'm hearing. Sure , some cats got a couple of empty skeletons in their dens , buried into the dirt ground so ' NO ' cat , can see what a cat that we ' truly are. ' , and if we ' do ' expose our true , identity selves , no cat would love us , want to be in a relationship with us , care for us , honor us , respect us , would want nothing to do with us and .. we would NEVER be the interesting , powerful cats that we all are right now , here in Sundaya. - But you Uncle ? , you've got a ' WHOLE ' , cat graveyard ! , and I ' bet ' you're proud of it too ! - Oh it's ' perfectly clear ' how you've ALWAYS felt about this royal family Uncle. Trying to be Desi's best friend - the greatest Uncle in the whole , wide world ! - ' just ' .. so when ' she ' become Queen of Sundaya , you ' assumed ' .. that she would give you some royal power just to let you stay on top. , trying to be ' m y ' best friend ' just ' so when I become Prince of Sundaya with Dale one day , you ' assumed ' and tried to get me to side with you , just so I could give you royal power , keep you on top and keep your royal Guardian status here in Sundaya. ''

Flaunti : '' Now ' all ' of us royals since birth , knew your game. ' Wayyy ' .. before you ' thought ' .. that we didn't know your game. Now that you're old , disgusting , filled with royal family resentment , bad blood for Moonlight and all of the other grown royals , holding onto grudges ' all ' your royal , old life and filled .. with ' so much ' hate ; every act and behavior , EVERYTHING and ANYTHING .. that you put us through , is now seen in my eyes , Desi's eyes , Dale's eyes , Sassy's eyes and Cassy's eyes. Why I ' NEVER thought ' .. that I would say this one day - or be capable of hating a lion with my kind of personality - but , I .. HATE .. YOU. WE ALL DO. ''

Flaunti narrows his furry eyebrows in ill , cruel feeling for his Uncle and at his Uncle. His respect , love and affection for Uncle completely gone now. His loving world of looking up to Uncle , seeing good in Uncle , respecting Uncle , loving Uncle and having such a wonderful , royal , cat family relationship with Uncle , this whole beautiful world of Flaunti's : shattered. Looking at Flaunti , Queen Destiny furry smirks widens more in ill , cold feeling for her Uncle sharing the same feelings as Flaunti right now. Flaunti looks at Queen Destiny and then smirks in the same ill and cruel feeling way as he already showed his Uncle. Queen Destiny almost slowly turns her furry head to look back at Uncle. , a furry look that acts like Uncle's words are completely beneath her , and completely beneath Flaunti.

Uncle : '' Not as much as I HATE those grown royals for letting me spend my lifetime wasting my time with ungrateful , perfect , arrogant and cocky royals like you. ''

Flaunti starts to snarl a loud in savage , in a lion rage at Uncle. Leaning his furry , big head closer to Uncle as he does. Uncle roars at Flaunti aloud and menacingly. Queen Destiny quickly stops Flaunti's lion instincts with her reasoning words of wisdom that ' ONLY ' kick in when his eldest sibling is in danger , when his royal family is in danger , basically once .. in a lion's lifetime.

Queen Destiny : ( also saying quietly , voice gets clever and quick off the mark ) '' Bail out Flaunt. It's NOT worth it right now. Uncle's time here in Sundaya is short , and he , ' already ' knows this. Uncle won't be here for long. So let's NOT waste our energy on a : '' NO Guardian of Sundaya. '' K ? ''

Maybe in silent thought or maybe , in this seconds of silence where Flaunti either : decides to listen to his eldest sibling or just challenge Uncle against his royal title as Guardian of Sundaya instead , Flaunti quickly turns his furry , big head to look soft and in deep , two steps ahead consideration. Queen Destiny is right. It really ' isn't ' worth it. What he's about to do to Uncle right now.

Without saying anything , Flaunti nods his furry , big head at Queen Destiny. His simple , furry , big nod of his head meaning : '' You're right Desi , you're right. You take the reins in this. But I got your back. ''

Uncle : ( sounding a little testy ) '' Maybe , we should change the subject. ''

Queen Destiny : ( also sounding a little testy ) '' Maybe we should. ''

Still not responding again , Flaunti quickly turns his big , furry head to quickly look left and right at Queen Destiny and Uncle. As if ready , as if waiting for which royal cat in the family to talk next.

Flaunti : '' ... ''

...

Uncle : " Puffy , maybe you should look at it what I'm trying to explain to you this way. You , are a strong one and your brother is a faithful one. , they know you and your younger brother can handle yourselves. You two will be looking after each other and from now , having each other's backs. ''

Queen Destiny : '' Oh please , with the buttering up and mushy gushiness with you , again Uncle. ALWAYS tryin ' to use over complimenting us and Flaunt , as a way to avoid the elephant in the den right now. And for the record , we always have looked after one another and had each other's furry backs since cub hood. You just not figurin ' that out ? ''

Flaunti : '' Yea , it's not like our royal parents are dead. ''

Uncle : '' You know if I told you both that , that would've been ' too cruel ' of me , right ? ''

Queen Destiny : '' You're already cruel. ''

Flaunti : '' And even ' if ' you told us that Unc , we wouldn't believe you anyway. ' Stop ' trying us like little cubs. I can't wait for you to leave Sundaya again. ''

Uncle : * rolls his furry , gray eyes as he ignores his eldest granddaughter's rude comment of his personality * ( still talking testing ) '' Just think ! .. about .. what I said to you and m'boy Flaunt ! Doesn't it mean ' anything ' to you young royals ? I know you miss your royal parents. I know you miss Mr. wise , fighting and graceful : Moonlight. ''

Queen Destiny spoke admittingly to Uncle first. , gotten a little emotional. Moonlight is always hitting her soft spots.

Queen Destiny : " Yea , I know. Moon would want me to be strong. , especially. .... I miss them so very much. It hurts so badly that they aren't here , a part of ' our ' royal life in Flaunt and I's most precious moments like I know they would. "

Flaunti's soft , cat , nutshells spots have been hit too. Now it's his turn to speak out his feelings.

Flaunti : " I really do miss them too Unc. I told Desi about this when she reminded me at a late time that I have missed her birthday. Mom ' was ' my favorite though. "

Queen Destiny : " Dad was ' my favorite. ' "

Flaunti : ( a bit sadly in low , soft murmurs but able to be heard from Queen Destiny and Uncle ) " Even more for Miss Sassy , Cassy and Dale. , where are they ' really ' .. from out of Sundaya. "

By what Flaunti has said makes Queen Destiny and Uncle look at Flaunti with blank , furry looks onto their furry faces. Next , each cat in the now quiet , old , royal family den look at one another straight in the colored , furry eyes to cerulean blue , gray and lastly dark and light brown eyes saying nothing.

All share a sorrowful , group roar together with furry , big and small heads lifted into the air and closed , colored , furry eyes. Obviously , a way of communication for cats , but to keep trying - to Queen Destiny's persistence and determination - to call for Miss Sassy , Cassy and Dale no matter how far their long , royal siblings could've went from out of Sundaya.

Flaunti mosey over to Queen Destiny with his furry , long back turned from Uncle and gives Queen Destiny a : " Here's your chance to break Uncle ! " furry look to his logic if opening him up emotionally .. it ' should ' lay out all of his weaknesses across the dirt ground in front of us. , that way we can use any weakness of Uncle's against him to see what would make him break down the most. He sits down upright covering the right side of Queen Destiny's furry , long body then leans on her while putting his furry chin first on the right side of her furry , broad shoulder not saying anything. He whips his long , furry tail at her left , long , hind leg that would say : " Well ! ? , I'm waiting ! " impatiently.

Queen Destiny turns her furry head to look at Flaunti then snarls rudely in front of his furry face saying : " NOT .. yet. , too early. " as she squeezes the very end of Flaunti's furry , long tail with her clawed , right paw then releases it when Flaunti quickly turns his furry head to Queen Destiny giving her his heated and frozen look then snarls a bit loudly pressing his furry head to Queen Destiny's furry head. Deep blue , furry eyes over dark , triangular , narrowed eyebrows.

She laughs at Flaunti softly after moving her furry head away from Flaunti's furry forehead/face turning her furry head back to Uncle. The cats playing off their silent quarrel as if ignoring what each other has said to Uncle. Saying something new , changing the subject.

Uncle spoke while Flaunti turns his furry head to look at Uncle. Both not speaking or making a sound.

Uncle : " You both have me. "

He smiles at his grand , royal cats trying to gratify. Flaunti rolls his cerulean , dark blue , furry eyes at Uncle not taking any of Uncle trying to pour on their nutshells , weak spots and sympathies.

Flaunti : " We don't want you. ''

Uncle : " Fine , I understand. ''

Queen Destiny : " I don't want you neither. ''

Flaunti lifts his furry , big head and turns about to look at Queen Destiny who quickly looks right back at Flaunti before she could meet Uncle's gray , furry eyes. Queen Destiny watches Flaunti wink deviously at her in guessing thought of Uncle and slowly rises up onto his long , furry fours from off of the dirt , stone ground.

Queen Destiny smirks a little at Flaunti deviously in return. So far , both royals are on the same page. So far. Will this change last minute ?

Queen Destiny turns her furry , long back on Uncle and Flaunti , then closes her dark/light , brown eyes while keeping her thick , heavy , arms/paws wrapped over her big boned chest under her double " D " , toned , fine , big breasts as if cold.

Then spoke as she slightly turns to Flaunti and her Uncle barely showing her furry face.

Just to prevent their Uncle from reading between the lines at the furry looks that her and Flaunti gave one another in twisted thought about him. , that's going to make Uncle think more of it and right before Uncle could curiously eyeball Queen Destiny and Flaunti. Like his furry , gray eyes were saying to Queen Destiny and Flaunti : " Why do you two feel the need to stare at one another like that in front of me ? ''

Queen Destiny : " I want things to go back to the way they were. I want just us royals here , in this royal den. Living off away from the grown royals and our grown parents on our ' own. ' We don't need a guardian or a parent , to look after us anymore. As you've said before. Your words , not mine. You royals should be ' out ' of Sundaya , roaming around , living your royal , furry lives , taking over your own royal areas of Sundaya while you grown royals should leave Sundaya to ' us. ' Isn't that the ' whole point ' of our Mama , making ' me ' Queen of Sundaya in the making ? , and then Cassy and Sassy , as princesses of Sundaya ? , isn't that the ' whole point ' of our Dad making Dale either : King or Prince of Sundaya - of his royal choice of course - and then Flaunti becomes also becomes a prince of Sundaya in the making too ? , ''

Uncle's personality changes right back into his pearls of wisdom giving , fake , calm and ' way too friendly ' for a royal , old Guardian of Sundaya that wants A-LOT of royal power , that wants to always stay on top , that wants A-LOT of cats in the Indenius pride to listen to him and do whatever he says , that wants royal servants running and dashing in action just under his royal orders , duties and commands. That wants A-LOT of dominance , A-LOT of control .. in the Indenius pride , that wants to have ' ALL ' of the attention , and always be represented - not ever forgotten - as a Guardian of Sundaya , but HATES , that Moonlight , is ALWAYS going to be ' way ' on top of him and ALWAYS do a much better job being a true , real , Guardian of Sundaya than he'll ever be. That always wants to ' still ' feel young , despite being ' so old ' , that wants his ego and pride stroked A-LOT .. when he wins lion fights and battles when he play fights with Flaunti and other lions in the Indenius pride at the poseidome. That always wants to be noticed and not ignored , just because he's very , very old and he can no longer run or jump in action in order to keep his royal status as Guardian of Sundaya. , because he's already used up and abused his youthful , lion days.

That hatefully , just wants to stick around royals - like Queen Destiny and Flaunti - just .. so that he can do anything he want and can in his royal power as Guardian of Sundaya - whatever amount of power , rule and control that he ' still has ' in Sundaya that is - to trample , push around and push about the young royals. , just so that - because he's the ' ONLY ' - for now - grown royal here in Sundaya , in the Indenius pride , Uncle will feel to himself that he has to put young royals in his family in their royal places. , since they may be young , adventurous , bold , a breath of fresh air and healthy , envying their youth , he wants to try to suck out their youthful days - and years in Sundaya - as much as he can so he can feel young and back on top again.

Uncle : '' W-W-Well Fluffy-mc-puffy , you're definitely right. I-I-I never thought of it like that before. Y-You're right. I-I think that would be a wonder-ful idea ! the grown royals of Sundaya ' have ' mentioned that to me ' longgg ago ' when you first started your royal reign as Princess of Sundaya. Back in your princess days when lions in the Indenius pride would always want to court you , take you out on dates , build a cat relationship that should last for a cat's lifetime , take things slow , be '' prince '' of Sundaya material , propose to you - if the timing is right - and speak to me and the grown royals if the royal relationship starts to get serious. ''

Queen Destiny's personality changes from speaking forceful and vice like. Back to calm , easy going and at rest.

Queen Destiny : '' Yea , * welcoming , warm smiles * I remember ' all ' .. of my Princess days of Sundaya , while ruling my very first reign. * Uncle nods his big , furry head in familiar remembrance along with Queen Destiny * Sassy got to go out on dates too and even Cassy as well. We always looked out for each other during our dates , we always used to stay up so late at night , talking about our dates and wondering what kind of lion we were in a royal relationship with , thinking about what were the lion's intentions and .. talking to each other about what kind of lion we were interested in and would like to run into. I always remembered Dale would ALWAYS act so jealous , anytime he heard all of us lioness talk about lions that we were interested , lions that we wanted and needed. Cassy used to be with a lion named : Jimmy and Sassy used to be with a lion named Siddy. , ''

She warmly laughs quietly to herself as Uncle attentively listens and Flaunti grins invitingly at her. Hearing the warmth , the love , the once , royal elation and happiness that she had with Tawny. She may not have said it , she may not have brought it up , but it sounds A-LOT like it .. through her dark/light brown eyes.

Flaunti : '' Oh yeaaah ! , I remember your royal , princess days with Cassy and Sass too ! Even though I was ' really young ' , nothin ' but a male cub , so noisy and so annoying ; I always invaded you , Cassy and Sassy's royal conversations about prince lions and lions that you took an interest in * fake cough while saying : '' Tawny '' * Tawny , Touph , Tum Tum , Slyi more , Sejnetti , Dale , Golden , R , R's older brother , Dan tient tant : a.ka , Dan for short , Antevill , Kip ... - ''

When Queen Destiny hears her furry , old flames , lions that she ' still has ' a history and a past with , lions that she ' still loves ' , lions that those old flames have ' already been ' re ignited , remembers like no memory isn't a match for her , lions that she was ' once ' crazy for , but it didn't work out and lions that really , really , really still loves to this very day ; Queen Destiny quickly cuts Flaunti off. Blushing extremely red in a burning crush and love , burning sensation of all that lions that she's been with , been in a either : secret relationship with , '' got even with '' snout kissed more than once , dated here and there , got into sexy , secretive and seductive deals , scores to settle and debts that still need to be paid , lions that she snout kissed for the first time and decided to stay best friends with for a cat lifetime , even slept with and made love to. Just to name a good number of lions , but there .. is ' so much ' more.

Queen Destiny : '' O-kay ! , let's not talk about that Flaunt , changin ' the subject. * Uncle lets out a quiet laugh * We're not going to talk about my furry , old , endless , lion flames that I've had before in the pride. , that all seemed to happen all at once and even ' while ' I was in a relationship secretly too. I build a foundation with ' so many ' lions , and you two ' mean ' to tell me .. that I ' STILL ' don't have a King of Sundaya ? ''

Flaunti : '' I thought you didn't want a King , of Sundaya. ''

Queen Destiny : '' Oh I don't Flaunt. , ''

Flaunti : '' So you say ... ''

Queen Destiny pauses while looking at Flaunti and then rolls her dark and light brown eyes playfully.

Queen Destiny : '' but that's not the point that I'm trying to make. The point that I'm trying to make here , is that I should have a lion in my life right now. That I'm in a relationship with. ''

Flaunti : '' Oh ! , you already do sis. ''

Queen Destiny rolls her dark/light brown eyes playfully again already thinking ahead of the lion names to her old , furry flames that Flaunti ' will get ' ready to name right now.

Queen Destiny : '' And ' as if ' I didn't know , who .. is that Flaunt. ''

Flaunti : ( playfully pokes fun at Queen Destiny , most of the time ) ( voice raises a little bit loudly ragging on to Queen Destiny some more ) '' Taw-ny , Kip , Dale , Touphy , Tum Tum. Come on Desi , I see the way those lions look at you. ( says playfully and silly ) They , love you ! Most of those lions are crushing ' so hard ' on you ! ( continues to poke fun at Queen Destiny ) And I know , that you're ' really ' feelin ' those lions too. Else ya wouldn't be spending so much time with them pri-vate-ly ! '' * silly , die laughing *

Uncle : '' You have a ' huge ' variety of lions to choose from. Surely , you must be interested in one of them , hm Fluffy ? At least ' one ' lion .. that could've been your Prince of Sundaya first ? , during your princess , royal days. And then when the lion competitions come along , that lucky lion will become your King of Sundaya. ''

Quickly had enough of Flaunti poking fun at her and ragging on her now , Queen Destiny quickly rises up from an upright position to standing onto her all of her long , furry fours. Quickly turning away from her Uncle and Flaunti , as she continues to speak to Flaunti and Uncle at the same time while slowly walking her way out of this wide , old , royal , family den for the night. Flaunti trotting after her , to the left , furry side of her body , continuing to jibe at Queen Destiny while she continues to talk her slow time walking out of their old , royal , family den to bed.

Queen Destiny : " Why yes Uncle , I do , but I can NEVER commit to him though. I'm ALWAYS getting distracted and I keep having furry eyes for other lions that want me , that want to love me and get into a relationship with me , at the ' wrong ' time periods of my life. And it's NOT .. that I don't mind being with these lions , it's just that : if I didn't have way too much , furry eyes .. for other lions , then I could be able to spend more time with this '' lion '' that I have an interest for and we can stay together. ''

Uncle : '' Ohhhhhhhhhh. Stay together huh ? , and are you currently with .. this lion , possibly secretly , Miss Fluffy ? ''

Queen Destiny : '' Yes Uncle , but nothing is official yet ' until ' as I said before - we both find time to finally commit to one another. ' Without ' .. anymore temptations. ' Without ' going back and forth , ' without ' .. any secret lion affairs and ' without ' '' getting even. '' Before ' I ' get a King of Sundaya , I want to make sure that I'm able to commit to that lion. NOT be with that lion and then have furry eyes for ' another lion ' , while I'm married to that lion. Me and .. '' that lion '' are ALWAYS tempted here in Sundaya , ' way too much ' .. in the Indenius pride. One Sundaya day , I just want all of the temptations to stop. So I can have something official with a lion. Just this once. ''

Uncle : '' Ohhh , you will my beautiful Fluffy. You will. ''

After considering his eldest sister's words ' way too ' quickly , Flaunti continues to jibe at Queen Destiny still trotting with her. Almost nearly trotting with her out of their wide , old , royal family den and into the tight spaced , small den next den to the left. , where sometimes her , Cassy and Sassy used to sleep in together during their royal family times.

And other times , her and Dale would sleep together alone. ONLY for Dale to get alone with her , so he could talk to her , steal snout kisses from her , '' get even '' with her , sleep with her a couple of times , try to get her to be his , she would return ' all ' of Dale's loving , relationship affections for her one minute and then push him aside the next and be on and off because of their incest , royal relationship that's vowed by the two of them , to be secret , NEVER told by any cat and NO royal in Sundaya needs to know about it. An incest , royal relationship by royal tradition that's NOT supposed to happen , but it happened right in the royal family's past anyway. It all happened ' right ' .. under all of the grown royals furry snouts , ' right ' under the members in the royal family's furry snouts , ' right ' in front of their royal parents and no cat could suspect or even had ' any time ' to dodge something like this happening.

Flaunti : '' Bet I can guess '' that lion '' , that you're talking about. ''

Queen Destiny : " And I ' bet ' .. that you're always urkin ' my nerves to a point where tonight , you are NOT sleepin ' in the same , tight spaced den with me. How ' bout that ? ''

Watching in peace bringing , soft and nice amusement at his grand royals in the royal family always get under each other's furry skin and often .. joke around and tease each other ' way too much ' , Uncle quietly laughs even more missing the good , peaceful times that he once shared with the royal family. ' Before ' the grown royals , the Indenius pride and his ' own ' royal family turned against him , turned all hostile on him - exactly as Flaunti said - and chased him ' out ' of Sundaya : never to return , his royal Guardian of Sundaya title ' already ' challenged by Moonlight and Moonlight won , back during Princess Destiny's royal reign and Moonlight warned him that if he ' did ' return right back to Sundaya again , he ' won't ' hesitate to fight him and then get the ' whole ' , Indenius pride to jump him until he runs out of Sundaya ' again ' , but this time , for good. NEVER to come back.

But it seems for Uncle , now that he's been in Sundaya since Princess Destiny's royal reign succeed , she passed her rite of passage and her royal , Queenly coronation had already passed , maybe Uncle dodged a bullet. Maybe .. Uncle was and ' felt ' lucky .. that he returned back to Sundaya. His young royals are right. All of his treacherous happenings , events and issues that went down here , in Sundaya , are ' finally ' catching up with him and he knows that Sundaya is his ' ONLY ' place that he can call : '' home '' and he has nowhere else to go. He doesn't even have his own huge , royal land - like many of the grown royals , like Queen Destiny , like Flaunti , like Dale , like Sassy , like Cassy , like Tawny , like Red , like Fein , like Moonlight , like Queen Lad La La , like Shine and like Trick - to claim ' out ' of the royal grounds and outskirts of Sundaya like he ' thought ' he would. , belonging as a grown royal along with all of the other grown royals.

Maybe this is a warning , life sign for him that he just keeps on ignoring while being here in Sundaya. He doesn't belong her in Sundaya anymore. He's just a nomad , an intruder : truthfully speaking , no longer a member of the Indenius pride and no longer a grown member of the grown royals parents of Sundaya. Maybe in his ripe age , this is the end .. of Uncle's lion , royal , lavish , extravagant , greedy and power hungry life style.

Stuck in his thoughts , Uncle begins to hear his eldest granddaughter : Queen Destiny and royal grandson : Flaunti continue to have on at Queen Destiny.

Flaunti : '' You're talking about Taw-ny , Kip ! and Dale. You've ALWAYS crushed on Tawny , because I seen you blush so hard and so red when you saw Tawny. And then Kip came long , you were tryin ' to act cu-tttttte ! around Kip , so that he didn't know that you secretly liked him first , before you did. Then there is Dale. Part of a royal member of the family. He ALWAYS .. impressed you. He - and next to Tawny - have ALWAYS .. been the lions in your life , that caught your attention and kept your attention long enough. ''

Queen Destiny : * gasps playfully at Flaunti * '' I was NOT .. blushing so red and so hard at Tawny ! ' He ' blushed so hard and red at me first ! , that is ' so ' not what happened , on the day that me and Tawn met. or .. whenever we saw one another. ''

She looks over her right , furry shoulder to stare playfully at Flaunti , but still overly irritated because she always hates it when Flaunti teases her a lot , annoys her a lot , bothers her a lot and always was that kind of youngest member in the family that he always told her lion crushes - right in front of her and the lion that she took an interest - furry faces and would expose her like , love or romantic feelings that she would have in front of that lion that she took an interest in. Completely embarrassing her very often , in front of the lions that she took an interest in , back in the past and leaving her blushing extremely , hot red in front of the lion's furry face. Yep , Flaunti was teasing , playful , noisy and bad cub like that.

Queen Destiny : And let's not forget , that you embarrassed me ' right ' .. in front of those many lions , that I had such a deep interest for - or liked , or crushed , or secretly loved but never told him -Moonlight always had to follow you around and carry you out in his jaws ' everywhere ' my dates and I went during my princess , royal reign. , all because you keep embarrassing me and exposing my true feelings for the lions that I always had an interest in. And then when my date was over and he would always walk me home our old , royal , family den. , and speak privately with Moonlight. If not Moonlight , then it would be our royal parents or Uncle and you would always try to talk to my dates and tell them the cat peeves and habits that I do. Most of them were ' sooo embarrassing ! ' ''

Flaunti : '' Oh ? , like you used to purr softly in your sleep while running in place ? ''

Flaunti laughs aloud at Queen Destiny.

Queen Destiny : '' None of my lion dates needed to know that ! , ''

Flaunti : '' Oh yes they did. ''

Queen Destiny : '' No they didn't. ''

Flaunti : '' Yes they did , if they were going to be with you , they needed to know your cat peeves , imperfections , curves , edges and insecurities. ''

Queen Destiny : '' NOT .. the way that you walked up and told ' em in that em-barrassing way ! That day , I felt like my lion date was ru-ined ! Because of you ! I was ' so ' happy that you had to sleep with Moonlight for the night and he had to spend the nightly hour dealing with you ... ''

Uncle laughs a lot into a wheezy laugh.

Uncle : '' Now ' that ' .. I remember ! ''

Uncle laughs some more.

Uncle : '' , m'boy , lay off puff for a bit. You've teased and tortured her enough. Puffs , don't worry too much about your youngest brother. You know that he's only lookin ' out for you. You two youngin ' headin ' to bed now ? ''

Flaunti twists his furry , big head to look back at Uncle.

Flaunti : '' Awww ! , come on Uncle. Ya gotta admit that was pretty fun huh. Desi knows that I'm just teasin ' and playin ' with her. , ''

Flaunti swings his big , furry head right back to look at Queen Destiny. Staring with teasing delight into his cerulean , dark blue eyes and then smiles widely letting his white teeth show. , in a silly and joking way.

Flaunti : '' right Desi ? ''

Queen Destiny leans her furry , small lookin ' head more closer to Flaunti. Her furry , facial expression half lidded in spicy vexation at his constant teasing and playing with her. Flaunti's ' already ' urkin ' her nerves at this point.

Queen Destiny : '' Nooo , and I can't stand you for it. Get the hell up out my face. You drive me crazy sometimes ... And ya NOT sleepin ' with me tonight. No way. ''

Flaunti : '' No ? ''

Queen Destiny : '' No Flaunt. You may be ten years of age , but in cat years , you are grown. You could sleep by yourself. I , want to sleep alone for tonight. - Yes Uncle , me and I guess Flaunt , are heading off to bed right now. ''

Uncle : '' Good night m'boy and Fluffy ! ''

Both Queen Destiny and Flaunti rotate both of their furry , big heads ahead to look at Uncle. Who is now laying onto his right , furry , very long and very heavy side of his old body.

Queen Destiny : '' Nighty night Uncle ! , see you in the morning. ''

Flaunti : '' Night Unc ! ''

Uncle : '' Get some rest you two ! ''

Queen Destiny and Flaunti : '' We will ! ''

And just like that , Flaunti continues to joke around and playfully make fun of Queen Destiny just as both cats now have walked out of the wide , old , royal , family den. , and outside onto the wide , stone pathways around Queen Destiny's old , royal , family den heading for the small spaced , mini den next den to the left. Uncle could ' still hear ' Queen Destiny and Flaunti playfully go at it.

Heard faintly from outside ,

Flaunti : '' But I like sleeping with you. You knew since cub hood that I got to sleep with another cat , or else I can't sleep and I'll be up at night tryin ' to sleep with a cat. I HATE .. sleeping alone. ''

Queen Destiny : * patient , soft sighs * '' Flaunt , I ' DO NOT ' .. have time for this. I'm a Queen , I need my rest. I ' still can't ' believe .. that you have been carrying that problem with you , ever since cub hood ! Kinny ! , I thought that you would've grown passed that problem by now ! - I'm NOT going to cub sit you anymore , ' or ' cub sit you tonight. I swear younger siblings like you in the royal family are ' soo .. annoying. ' You refuse to leave me alone. ''

Flaunti : '' Uh-uh ! , that's not true ! , that's not true. I've left you alone before , and I let you sleep by yourself a couple of times. Passed that ob-vious fact , and I'm done teasing you for the day , I ' still can't ' believe that you ' won't admit ' that you like Tawny .. or that you liked Dale. ''

Queen Destiny : '' Okay , Dal , I can admit that is true. But Tawn ? , I'd rather hop for a stone ledge , miscalculate , fall and twist one of my furry paws , then ' ever ' admit one day to Tawny , that I like him ' more ' than as a best friend. * above herself scoff * I'll NEVER admit it , in my furry life. , for as long as I'll be Queen of Sundaya. For as long as I'll live , in which , will be a ' very long ' time. ''

Flaunti : '' Ohhhhh ! , so '' that lion '' that you told me .. and Uncle , ' is ' Tawny. I knew it ! You like him don't you. ( says playfully and dramatically in a funny way ) N-OOOOO ! , you LOVE him. You love Tawny ! , ( sing songs playfully and in tune ) Tawny ! , Tawny ! , Tawny ! , Tawny ! ''

Queen Destiny : '' Get the hell on Flaunt. I'm tired now , I won't be hearin' this from you if you're going to stay in this den with me for the night. ''

Flaunti : ( says aloud in silly , cub like happiness ) '' Really ? ! , I get to stay tonight ? ''

Queen Destiny : ( raises her voice in sassy vexation ) '' If you could shut the hell up and take it down a notch , then yes , you can stay. ( voice gets normal toned and calm again ) Figured if you're going to keep getting fun out of teasing and nagging me , you won't leave me alone ' until ' I say yes. So fine , I guess , you ' can ' stay in the mini den and we can sleep in there together for the night. ''

Flaunti : ( lowers his voice into on a clam whispers ) '' YES ! , YES , YES , YES , YES , YES ! ! , ( still whispering ) thanks big sis. ''

Queen Destiny : '' Yea , yea Flaunt. Just ' don't ' sleep next to me. You sleep wild. I'm not tryin ' to have to wake up in the middle of the night , to you snoring into a snarl in front of my face or your long , hind leg kickin ' me. I'm not playin ' with you. You sleep on one side of the den , I sleep on the other. ''

Flaunti : '' You're the best. ''

Back inside of the wide , old , royal , family den ,

Uncle sighs deeply in relief as his gray eyes grow lost in the magical , sweet colors of feminine pink , baby blue and clear - the kind of clear how the water would be light silver along with certain parts of it darker than others who are light - bringing such a refreshing way to allow the water to carry and flow as if within Uncle. Furry , big , gray eyes that are closed shut - but softly - as the echoing , shattering of raindrops - instead of a wild rush of water passing through - rings invitingly into his furry , big head until - in all tiredness - darkness takes in Uncle's view and his furry , big face that is tilted right onto the dirt ground slowly drops and gray eyes shut , never to open until the awaiting morning.
