Leon shared a laugh with his friend as the cub stalked and gnawed on her tail tuft. He glanced down at the youth, for a brief moment remembering when he had first found Makyna. She was that small, too. Leon had also been a little smaller than he was now - he was beginning to grow though. He didn't know how much he would grow, or how big he would get, but he was finding being bigger was a lot more convenient than being small. His ears twitched slightly while watching her, for a moment uncertain of what she was doing - until she launched herself at his head. The bear let loose a little "AH!" when she jumped on him, only to stand perfectly still while she grappled with his fur and made her way to the divet between his shoulders. "Haha yeah, alright." The bear snickered, and slowly rose to stand at his full height on all four legs.

Leon glanced over at Makyna, grinning excitedly. That was another Gembound the bear would be responsible (well, partially responsible this time) for bringing back to Maji Walezi. Cancer owed him big time. After exchanging a glance with his lioness friend, Leon started to walk, making his way to the edge of the riverbed. "Okay, hold on tight! We're going up!" He laughed. The bear readied himself, then started to climb the steep incline, paws scraping at the dirt and rocks until he had made his way up the ledge. He glanced over at Makyna, making sure she made it, before leading the way back to the tunnel that would lead them to Pisces.
