Twisted pt 5

�Takari! MY BABY!� Uhru cried as her sons� beaten body came into view. Zira and Redasa had just gotten home, and were about to explain where the Crown Prince was when hyenas and cub made it to the rock. �LET GO OF MY SON!� Ahadi roared. The female lifted her eyes to the king, softly putting Taka down. �Your highness, I ask-� �You don�t get to make requests, DEMON.� �No, dear. Let her speak. I want to know her excuse.� Uhru�s soft voice carried through his anger. �Fine. But make it quick, Soulless creature.� She bowed before the royals. �Thank you graciously, Sire. I simply come to bring him home. The wretch beside me is the one who has harmed our prince. I brought him here for you to deal with. We were in your lands. Your jurisdiction is needed for a punishment, Sir.� Ahadi looked baffled. �Do you not have consequences lined? Any why in MY lands?�
The female was silent for a moment. �Rules, regulations, orders� we have them. But by my councils law, since this one is my husband and father to our pups, I can never condemn him of anything. No matter what the charge. And I was in your lands because I am to pup very soon, Your Grace. In our lands, some new wreps have joined, ones I have not learned of yet. Many new ones have no laws from home, so are not accustomed to following such a thing. The one I carry may be killed in our lands, so I needed a shelter to use until it becomes old enough to learn what a claw is.�
She looked at her mate with fury. �We may usually rule differently, Your Majesty, but his actions were unacceptable. When the mocker came to fly throughout the lands with news of your sons� ceremony, I forced Bakkar to attend. Many times, a royal is lost and clans are ruined, massacred because a hyena attacked without knowing. I brought him there to assure that wouldn�t happen to our clan, but he seems to have taken no heed. So, punishment is yours.�
