Cloudclaw
The son of an outsider,courageous and stubbern, CloudClaw is most agile among the clan, and most worthly of being the leader. He was born in a different pride though. His childhood was very hard. His parents didn't care much about him and that was the worst thing for a little cub. Somehow all the pride just hated him. CloudClaw didn't do anything bad to them, but they just hated him. He was a good, helpful cub, but no one wanted his help, no one wanted to be with him. He usually was sitting and thinking what did he did for the pride to hate him. His only friend was a small fuzzy wildcat, which lived near the pride. It's just incredible how a wildcat and a lion cub became friends. They both liked playing together, the wildcat taught him how to hunt small rodents and birds. One night they decided to go for a walk together and went mountain way. The night was beautiful and they admired the stars. Then CloudClaw saw a falling star and it looked like it fell quite nearby. He and his friend ran towards the light of the star, but then they heard loud barking. CloudClaw got scared and immediately ran into a bush to hide. The wildcat wasn't that fast and a pack of hunting dogs spotted him and caught him in no time. CloudClaw saw with his own eyes, how his only friend was murdered. He was shocked. The dogs soon left the dead cat and scampered away, glad they didn't smell CloudClaw,He snuck away from their detection, CloudClaw Sprinted home crying, He couldn't fall asleep the whole night as the view of his friend being killed just couldn't leave his mind, he spent hours crying over the loss of his tiny friend. After that CloudClaw was even more sad,lonely and bitter.
Then he was 5 months, the king of his pride decided that they did not want him in their pride. He decided to sell him. It was a quite cold night and he had to sit in the place called trading center, holding a piece of bark with a small number on it. He was very sad and scared. He was scared that if no one buys him, he'll have to stay there forever. But a lion came to the center,Sonveron. He was looking at all the cubs for sale, but didn't like any of them,He then saw CloudClaw. CloudClaw was hoping that the lion will like him and take him into his pride. The lion stopped. Looked at CloudClaw and said: ''Come here, boy, I'll take you to my pride, I need more submales''. CloudClaw saw how the lion gave something to the guard lion and then turned giving him a flick of his tail to signal that he should follow. CloudClaw was really happy, bouncing up and down, dreaming what the new pride will be like, will they love him, will he have friends? And then he came to the pride he was really happy. All the lionesses were pretty good to him and he found some other cubs as friends. CloudClaw was kind before he came to the pride,Soveron favored him,teaching CloudClaw his ways,like a long lost son, He savored his anger, and soon became bitter. The evilness of the pride leader got to him and he slowly became evil. CloudClaw soon became a Great submale, partroling the border,hunting large animals,but there one thing his mind couldn't fathom, killing a wildcat,he kept this a secret. During each patrol, he would go to a small hollow stump and talk to a small, pregnant wildcat, and play and talk with her, reliving the times when his old friend was still alive. The king really liked him,and named him the heir,treating CloudClaw like his son, and always said he was the best of the submales.
