Twisted pt 6
Ahadi sighed. He lowered his head to Taka, roughly cleaning him and finding all the rips in the fur. � Most are not made by a hyena, but by another cub.� The king sniffed. �REDASA!� The young one whimpered. �I deal with you later. For now� Hyena! Cleanse my son with your tongue. Then, stand before me.� Bakkar made a disgusted sound but obeyed. He lowered himself as far as possible as Ahadi sat before him. �I SAID STAND, NOT COWER, creature!� Bakkar stood.
�Now� you have harmed my son. The only acceptable punishment for this is my neck around yours.� Uhru made a small sound in the back of her throat. �Dear, let us not do that. Not today. He did not kill Taka, barely scratched him. I say, take your claw- a SINGLE claw- and slash him seven times and then let him be.� Ahadi looked at her with a mix of anger and understanding. �And then I will inflict my punishment.� The king nodded, slashed the hyena seven times as hard as he could, then turned to his wife. She threw back her head, aligning it with her noble shoulders. If ever there was a Queen that never should be questioned, it would have been her. She stared at the creature coldly. �You are to suffer in the Land of Rogues and Thorns for two months. Your wife is free to stay here, if she wishes. Shelter for herself and her pup will be at high priority. When your time of punishment is done, come here to reclaim your place- and your wife if she stays.�
The hyena snarled. �Not right! I have eat too. And why I believe you care for mate and pup? Kill us as soon as ya�s leek ad us, ye daw.� She glared at him. �Shat it, Dog.� He looked surprised. �If you die, you die. No different than your clan.� Uhru was quiet for a second. �Your wife will have say in this. How does it sound for you?� The female�s jaw nearly dropped. �Gracious, My Queen� is it even law for me to make decisions on these grasses?� �It is if I decide so.� Uhru said. The hyena smiled. �Then make it eight months. And I will stay here.� Bakkar�s eyes became slits. �Fine. As for YOU,� Bakkar snapped, staring at his wife. �I hope you die while pupping. And may the Prince suffer!� He raced off. �Zuzu, make sure he gets to the Land of Rogues and Thorns.� Immediately the bird was off.
The Queen heavily sighed, leaning her body against a rock wall. Then, her closed eyes opened, and Redasa was in her front claws, dangling over the end of Priderock. She turned to Red�s mother. �GIVE ME ONE REASON! A single reason not to drop him off the edge!� His mother, Atsu, opened her mouth and gasped out desperately: �NO! I beg of you! Anything but my baby! Take my life, not his. Or� Or exile us to Rogues and Thorns! Anything but my son!� She went onto her front paws. �PLEASE! Have mercy, Your Highness!� Uhru glowered at Redasa, then threw the cub at his mothers� chest. �Exiled. You can stay until sun-high tomorrow.� The lioness raced off, shaking and crying.
