The Meerkats of the Plains

[MeerkatStar]

(im sorry i  have been asleep all this time you have been replying cus i live in the UK xD))

Kolo surpressed a low growl, Veen couldn't take his girl. He was intent on attacking him but how would that impress Salahari? He stopped himself and padded up to Salahari while scent marking the burrow entrance at the same time then he nudged Veen off her. He touched noses with Salahari and churred "its getting late want to come down into the burrow and sleep together?" He desperatly hoped that she would say yes and Veen wouldn't get in the way. He couldn't spend another minute without her.


By the way the left one is Veen, the middle one is Kolo and the right one is Salahari.))

I have put pictures on all my posts because i was bored waiting for you lot ;3 and I think Veen should of attacked Kolo when he had that snake bite,he would of had no chance xD))

    Veen, jaw nearly dropping, stared at Kolo. 'Oh, heck no!' he roared inwardly, slowly rising, fur standing on end. "Well, Kolo. It's nice for you to invite her with you, but I already have." He said, almost simply. "Salahari, I was just about to ask you if you wanted to stay out a second longer and watch the sunset with me?" He churred, hip-slamming Kolo out of the way, enough force to knock him over- So Veen thought, anyways. He groomed her ear softly, snipping off a flea. "Wow. That one was bloody," he commented, grooming below her neck- rather gently, not to mention romanticly. He chuckled, "Seems I got most of the vermin off you." Now that was directed at Kolo, to rub in he had been grooming her.

    Holly, not knowing what was going on, padded up. "Hi, Kolo." she murmured, staring at him. She had managed to develop a liking for him, but doubted he liked her...Or did he? "Um...I-I just came up to say hi. I'll be in the burrow..." she trailed, staring at Veen and Salahari. Now, she was emberassed. Darting back into the den, she found an isolated chamber far away from anyone, and curled up in a tight ball.

Salahari might will get jealous hollyyy xD))

Salahari backed up slowly, confusion painted all over her features.  'Whats wrong? Why is there so much fighting?' "I'd love too." She smiled and glanced towards Holly and Kolo, a strange feeling washed over her and she growled quietly, shocking herself. 'Hes mine.' The meerkat frowned softly and shook her head, turning back to Veen. 'Getting protective all ready?' a taunting voice said in the back of her mind. 'Shut up.' was the she kat's reply.



For me, ' Is thoughts xD))

'No no no no no why must Veen ruin my love for that meerkat!' he thought angry and emotionaly. "two can play at this game" he snarled at Veen and lunged at him head on but at that same moment a Jackel leaped out of the long grass just behind Salahari "No, Salahari!" he cried as he was leaping towards her as fast as he could. The Jackel was just about to grab her but Kolo nudged Salahari out if the way and he scratched the Jackels face at full speed. The Jackel couldn't believe his eyes and tryed to run away but Kolo nipped at its heals "don't you mess with my girl again!" he screeched. But suddenly the Jackel turned and hypocritically headed towards Salahari with his mouth out wide. Kolo bolted after the Jackel. As the Jackel bent down to grab Salahari, he had no choice but to jump in front of Salahari and the Jackel grabed him insted. As the Jackel shaked him wildly he said to Salahari "i always loved you Salahari but now you and Veen can live happily together as a domanant pair." As the Jackel dispeared into the long grass the desert went silent.

    Veen stared in shock, blinking. No one survived a jackal. "..." He opened his maw to speak, but couldn't. "So...That's why he wanted her? To become a dominant?' Nearly snorting, he stood, waiting for Salahari's reaction to this. Would she blame him? Churring in worry, he stood tall, sending out loud, quick warning calls. The last meerkats scurried into the burrow. "S-salahari?"

[Celeyan]

Salahari watched them, her eyes wide. "Kolo..." She stared at the ground, but her sadness was soon turning into anger. 'I could try and save him!' The meerkat looked up, lunging into the desert grass and charging after the jackal in stupidity. She ran as fast as she could, attempting to pick up the jackal and Kolo's smell.

(NOOOO DON'T KILL HIMMM D:)

[MeerkatStar]

Kolo suddenly blinked and his eyes opened. Was he still alive or was he in heaven? He looked around and he was stunned, he could see the ground and when he looked up there was the Jackal. He tried to struggle out but his sides stung from the Jackal's sharp teeth. He wondered if Salahari would be mad at him for giving his life to her and she may come and save him but he didn't want that all he wanted was for Salahari to be happy. Just thinking about her made his eyes water with grief. "Salahari you were so lovley, I didn't care if you didn't make me domanant male i just wanted to be with you" he whispered but he knew he would never see her again. Suddenly the Jackal stopped and Kolo heard a loud roar, he whimpered and closed his eyes. The Jackal quickly dropped Kolo and ran for his life, Kolo layed there stunned for a moment but when he opened his eyes he saw massive teeth and a great big mane. He knew this animal was a lion and would happily eat him. He tried to get away but his sides stung like he had just been bitten by a snake 15 times, he had no choice but to stay where he was and face the lion head on. Suddenly he heard a voice "Nigel what are you doing" the voice said. "I have found this really juicy meerkat for desert mum" the big lion with the mane called. The voice spoke again "you know we lions don't eat them scrawny little things and rememer what happened last time!" The big lion growled and said "fine" The lion took one last look at me then left. Kolo curled up confused and frightened, where was he? He groaned as it started raining, the rain stung his sides but he carefully got up and wandered towards the nearest bolt hole and went down. Once more he thought about Salahari and he started weeping. He desperatly wished she was here curled up with him and giving him comfort. He saw blood on the sand bringing him back to the real world and relised his sides had started bleeding, he knew he wouldn't survive the night alone while losing this much blood.

Salahari continued to run, tears falling from her eyes as she did so. "Kolo!" She called desperately, hoping he was alive. She  soon picked up their scent and she ran even faster, making her wheeze from lack of air. "KOLO!" She shouted again, but louder. All she could smell was lions, a jackal, and Kolo. She padded around, following his very faint scent. The meerkat walked cautiously over to a bolt hole, where she thought his scent was most. Fur entered her view and she immediately lunged towards the other meerkat, snuggling to his fur and grooming his back.

[MeerkatStar]

Kolo squealed as he felt something snuggle into him at first he thought it was the lion comeing back to eat him but then he scented a familer scent 'no i can't be' he thought and when he turned around it was! "Salahari" he churred feeling so relieved and even though in a weakened state he groomed her head and put his paw around her. "thank god your here" he cried "i thought i was going to lose you to the Jackal but then i gave my life to you and i thought i would never see you again!" he wept with relief and snuggled into her fur even more. "I-I love you Salahari"

[Taakah]

    Veen had been following Salahari, and even though he hated Kolo, desperately searched for him. Kolo, though a she-kat stealer(To Veen) was still a brother.(Mob wise). "Salahari, do you think...?" Suddenly, he seen a bolt hole barely visible in the dense grass. She must have seen it, too. Lunging after her, he suddenly heard "I-I love you, Salahari." Suddenly, rage overtook him. Managing to keep it under controll, he crouched around the corner, claws deeply gashing into the ground. He awaited her reply. Then, the memory came to him.
    Salahari accepted him into the group. He and Kolo went with her to forage. He had begun to like her, and offered her eggs- A super rare find. Then, Kolo butted in with the snake- and Salahari payed him alot of attention. Grinding his teeth, he waited for her reply. If she said she loved him too, he would leave. If she said otherwise, he would stay- and leave Kolo alone.
