Unleashed

The watering hole was beautiful. As tough and stern as her harsh exterior may be at times, Shenzi could appreciate true beauty easily. The crystal cool liquid shimmered a deep but inviting blue colour, Shenzi couldn't help but contrast it to the muddy stagnant pools that she used to call her home, the elephant graveyard was 'spooky' to any who were not used to its layout, but Shenzi knew it better than anyone, she had ruled as matriarch over the hyena and the graveyard had been her miniture kingdom. But now, now she had been granted freedom, she could grace the pridelands with her presence whenever and wherever she pleased, nowhere was out of bounds, not any more, not since that disgusting ponsey king had been finally murdered, and his young son... chased off, by Shenzi herself, and her two closest followers, Ed and Banzi.

The watering hole was her new favourite hideout, pleanty of cool liquid, and loads of prey, not that she liked to hunt, she didn't mind the chase or the kill, but she much prefered stealing away the kill of someone elses. A wicked smirk crossed her chops as that thought entered her mind. In her eyes, her and her clan were untouchable, the new kings greatest allies, she could do as she pleased, so long as they continued to be sure to steal Scar's favour.

Dhakiya wandered through her new home, finally able to stay calm. It was her goal today to not once become angry, it starts to become tiresome after awhile. Her body was relaxed, tail low and face holding a pleasent expression. Flicking her tassil around, lightly. Trying to have a good time.
Since her pride had been let into the pride, she has been wandering closer to the massive rock. Visiting the waterhole to take a swim regular. Today, the clouds were lighter, and it looked like no rain was going to be falling soon. So, Dhakiya was moving through the savanah to get to the wateringhole. It was nice not to have rain falling over you all the time.
Her slinder, yet musclure body moved through the grass, her noise soon picking up the sweet scent of water. Dhakiya processed through her brain that their was another, not of a lion. Instead it was a hyena, not very found of those creatures. In her memory, she remembered that the King allowed the pest to run free. It did upset her at first, but she never planed on running into one.
Finally she arrived, as parted the grass she stepped out. Pulling her lips over her jaws, clinching her teeth as she growled at the female. Her shoulder blades rolling as she moved to the waters edge. She did her best to ignore it. Oh, look what we have here. An it. she spoke with acid under her breath, loud enough just so the hyena can hear that she's speaking.

Shenzi's bulky masculine looking body tensed ever so lightly, then relaxed once more as she set her eyes on the lioness, she narrowed them and growled lightly. She had acted in a hostile way toward Shenzi, and completely unprovoked, this angered her, but she didn't press it further, a lone lioness and a lone hyena, if it came to a fight, both would be badly wounded. She knitted together her brow and found herself feeling annoyed at the lack of her clan members, where was her dominant male? He should be here too, if they travelled and stayed in their large group, then they were untouchable, providing a large group of lionesses didn't attack. Shenzi on her own was threatening enough, but she loved her family, and prefered them all where she could see them. Her acidic tone let lose for a second.

The exotic lioness lapped up a mouth full of water. The cold liquid was shallowed, it was nice and refreshing. Sitting down, her tounge starting to clean her shoulder. Just trying to pass by time. She was waiting for night to fall, so she could rally up some of the lionesses to hunt.
Their pride never ate with the prideland lionesses, neither did they hunt together. For some reason they were tease about their arivel, not wanting anything to do with them. So they hunted on their own. It was okay, they worked better together than with a group of unknown lionesses. It wouldn't work that well if they tried.
Dhakiya's lovly sky blue eyes glanced up at the hyena, just as she made finally made a remark. The lioness suddenly snapped and stood up, lowering her body as a feirce growl ripped through her jaws. Flatting her ears down, her tail teansed up. She flicked it around sharpless as she stared down the hyena. Did you say something rat? Because it sounded like you did just a second ago.
In her mind she threw away that promise not to become angry. All she could think about is battering the thing that stood infront of her around. Finally, she turned around and walked back over to her spot. Dhakiya hissed through her teeth as she glared at the other animal. Now why don't you huss up, maybe go find a mud pit to roll in. Isn't that what your kind does or something? she asked. Rudeness just gleaming off of her words.

Shenzi laughed a harsh and clipped laugh, and shook her matted short coat, it wasn't muddy or tatty, some of the males and weaker females had dirty coats, but Shenzi insisted on being clean, well groomed, same as she made sure the higher ranked in her clan were forced to be well groomed, Shenzi made sure of that. She also made sure they were all well versed in methods of combat, even the more stupid of the hyena could still fight. Flashes of her ivory teeth were shown as she laughed, but these were quickly concealed with her ebony lips. She turned to face the lioness, standing proudly and strong, chin raised slightly, she wouldn't be forced to act even slightly submissive, despite the cruel actions of the lioness. She spoke to her, across the watering hole.

Now now kitten, this isn't very welcoming to your new neighbours is it. Allow me to.. introduce myself. I'm Shenzi, leader of the hyena clan that now share these lands with you. Your new king, I'm sure, would not want you treating the newcomers here with such distain, and so.. unprovoked. I assume you don't want to fall out of his favour, do you?

Her words were cleverly phrased, normal words, kind and considerate even, but the way she spoke them was tainted, laced with a secret hint of a threat, but with all the sincerity that would be needed, her eyes were large as she spoke, rounded, almost innocent looking, the matriarch smiled serenely, awaiting any kind of response.
