Xanthia laughed softly, though it came out as a gentle rolling purr rather than a human laugh. "Topaz's friend! ah yes, Topaz, a little ball of energy that one is, just a bit odd but I like her" her tail gave a slight twitch, "her orb is that of electricity, is it not? it seemed to fit her" the blue lioness' ear gave a slight twitch, and her eyes closed in content for a moment, "I should think she would like this worl, so much room to run about in"
her eyes flitted open again, "I wonder where she is...and I wonder if she's a cub here, or fully grown" she mused softly

"A little ball of energy...yes, I suppose you could call her that. Topaz certainly can be a handful.
"Electricity? Hmm...," Xote paused, taking a moment to think about the dangerous element. Certainly, it fit her in more ways than one, he thought sadly.
When Xanthia brought up the topic of Topaz running around this land, his black ears perked roughly. "On that issue... I seem to have lost her. We came to this land together, that I am sure of. I spent a good amount of time looking for her, but as you can clearly see, my efforts have come to naught."
He sighed as a lion would, and stared absentmindedly into the distance. A sliver of hope ran through his heart that he would spot a dot of blue on the horizon.

Xanthia tilted her head, muscles rippling gently under her pelt as she stood. "really? well that's no good..." her eyes closed for a moment as she wagged her tail gently, "okay, I'll help you find her if you like!" her eyes fluttered open again, "it wouldn't be any trouble to me at all, I wouldn't want Topaz to get hurt, normally I wouldn't worry too much about her, but this world isn't the same as those where you retain your human form."

Grilvix followed the young ones movements closely, though still keeping in a relaxed state. He took a moment to shift in the dirt and lick his paw before answering Ko.
“It’s just this world. I would never hurt Xanthia.” He reassured the blue cub. His eyes had wandered off to the horizon however, not knowing if his eyes betrayed him. He didn’t even know himself if he was lying or telling the truth.

"Is that so? I appreciate the help, then." Though he usually avoided interacting with other people, it was an opportunity to learn more about this woman. A sudden itch crept to his nose, and he lifted a paw to scratch it away. This world and his new body were both certainly very uncomfortable. Xote hoped he wouldn't have to get used to it.
Several miles away stood a large sky-furred cub, rubbing her nose into the dirt out of pure boredom. For hours she galloped around this foreign land, kicking up dust and running into patches of greenery in search of a lost friend. Presently she collapsed onto the ground, resting her paws under her chin. Seconds later she rolled lazily onto her back, kicking her limbs into the air to swat away imaginary pests.
"So boooored," she growled out, and her ochreous eyes sliding closed from fatigue.

Ko's glare did not soften. Instead he moved to be in his view once more. "Some how your words seem to have a poison to them..." He moved to Grilvix's side before laying down in a curled up ball, his head on his front paws and his tail curled around him. "The truth is, if we were to stay in this land you would over throw her right?" He asked this in almost a whisper so Xanthia could not hear.

Xanthia nodded, standing up. "we'll find her" she assured the male, heading off, her movements starting off as a slow lope, muscles rippling gently as she sped up, until she was at a full run, spine bending fluidly. her paws made light prints in the dust, hardly kicking up any at all.
she seemed happy running, a self assured type of gait, she was strong in this form, and she knew it. her muscles tensed and bunched as she sprung up from the ground just for the sake of it, though she rather hoped to be able to see the cub this way. and yes, a spot of blue.
her sprint slowed to a lope, then a trot, walking towards the ball of blue fur.

The large silver lion was silent for a moment, obviously his thoughts dwelling on Ko’s question. His loyalty to Xanthia was unquestionable but that was when they were at the castle. Would he really kill her if they stayed in this world for too long?
Just thinking of power made something in his stomach turn as if he hungered for it. “I probably would Ko. Thankfully we won’t be staying in this world for too long so there is nothing to worry about.” He reassured the cub but in truth he was just trying to convince himself he wouldn’t loose control over his mind.

After following the dark-furred lioness further into the land, he caught sight of the color blue and hastened his pace. Xote jumped past the other and then stopped to stand tall over the sleeping(?) cub. His red-tipped ears twitched slightly, out of irritation or excitement, he didn't know.
The overgrown cub was completely oblivious to the presence of other lions, her eyes closed and body limp as she lazed under the burning sun. When a sudden shadow loomed over her, her eyes shot open.
Topaz stared up into the dark teal eyes of an immense black lion, and for a second she lay still. A few more seconds were spent examining the appearance of the stranger: black fur, red ears, the color of the eyes, and the odd aura the beast gave off. Gathering her thoughts slowly, she opened her jaw to speak.
"Xote?"
"Yes, you silly girl, it is me. Please do not ever go missing like that again, especially in a land as foreign as thi-"
The cub immediately pounced up and barreled herself into the wild mane of the larger lion. The latter's words were cut off and he staggered for a bit before collapsing under the weight.

Xanthia laughed softly, giving her chest a quick lick to smooth the fur down once again. "glad to see you're safe" she commented, voice soft and quiet as she adressed Topaz, ears ticking to and fro, listening for any danger, once again left with a male and a cub, it put her on edge.

Ko frowned and started to lay down. "You don't sound so confident in yourself though." He murmured and put his muzzle on his paw and then yawned. "I don't wish to be in the world much longer either though. It does things to me."

Grilvix rolled over, trying to get comfortable but only failing. His shiny silver fur now covered in dusty dirt. The day was warm and it was making him sleepy. He huffed before relaxing his head on his front paws, he would nap before returning to the castel.
