Backstory - written by Velvet #465211
She could feel the soft breeze of dawn brush into her fur, as the birds chirped around her endlessly. The sky has never been more beautiful, different hues of purple and orange melting harmoniously into the perfect design, the day’s aura turning the territory into something that can be described as nothing else other than heavenly. Her ear twitched every now and then into pure concentration, P-Body’s small and somehow fluffy frame curling into a ball. Despite her roundness, her tail was flickering, visibly annoyed by the pied kingfisher circling her, almost amused by the image in front of him. Right behind her, also in a crouched position, her mother watched with patience over the young cub, her sweet and melodic voice whispering into her baby’s ear.
“No rush. Wait until the winds stop blowing behind you. This way, no prey is going to feel your scent. You’re already blending so well with the rocks.”
P-Body gave her mother a quick nod, arching her back as her little legs softly pounded the ground in expectation. Before her, just a few meters away, stood a few ostrich chicks, their long legs stepping over the taller grass, helping them move with ease, completely unaware of the miniature, stripped terror waiting for a wrong move. One of the birds, distracted by a colorful grasshopper, quickly charged before it. The perfect opportunity. With a final jump, P-Body’s claws made contact with the speckled feathers, pinning her prey to the ground and preparing to swiftly end its life in one excellent strike to the weakest point– until she heard a yell.
“I’ve found it! I’ve found it! Look!”
Caught off guard, P-Body had no time to react properly and dodge the speeding cub, as it was already too late. Another small body crashed right into hers, sending her rolling down the kopje, both of them hitting hill after hill until they ended up crashing into the thick, purple bushes. Aphrodite stood in shock, her beautiful sunglow eyes widening as she watched her twins tumbling like a ball of twigs and dust during a desert sandstorm. She quickly jumped down the rocky hills, listening to the distressed mewing of the two cubs until she found them unharmed, but visibly dizzy and confused. Atlas, the troublemaker of the family, stood upside down on a rock, her body slowly sliding down on top of her sister’s, earning a surprised sound from her. Aphrodite pawed gently at the two.
“Does anything hurt?”
Atlas was supposed to join the lesson too, but she quickly sneaked out somewhere into the jungle, too attentive to the senegal bird which she was supposed to stalk. Somehow, little Atlas never fails to test Aphrodite’s patience or her protectiveness: and Atlas always wins. Disappointed, but not surprised, the stunning tigon mother grabbed Atlas by the back of her neck gently and placed her back on her shaky paws. As soon as the cub’s paws were lifted from the ground, something fell out of her mouth. Her sister and her mother looked confused at what the remains looked like.
“What did you eat?”
P-Body nudged it with curiosity as she commented:
“A mushroom…”
Aphrodite let out a small, mildly annoyed growl.
“Atlas…again?”
The murky tigon licked her toe, trying to relieve a small itch caused by the bush she fell into just a few moments ago, her citrine eyes having a mischievous glint in them.
“I apologise…”
P-Body couldn’t help, but let out a childish laugh, throwing herself on top of her sister, her sunkissed fur brushing over her twins.
“You know I could never stay mad at you…”
