Atinneas walked in the tunnel as her paws met cold rock. She was careful on the stairs as she walked making sure she didn't trip. Her tail waved contently and happily as she walked up the stairs. This gembound was very different from other gembounds, very much so. Why? Well, only Atinneas knew why and it didn't bother the you lion cub at all. She didn't even notice the carvings on the wall, she just knew she was walking through a tunnel. She hatched knowing plenty of things, including knowing of the name of her home, the caves. Knowledge and grace had been cast unto her since she hatched, and the cub knew this very well. Though not much could be said now, for she was simply passing through the tunnel. Atinneas would grow into a wise regal lion, but she seemed just like one as a cub.

Zelk, the polar bear cub, otherwise known as a big white fluffball walked through the Tunnel J, with her best friend Orlaith at her side. She looked over as the tigress cub followed. "Come on Orlaith, hurry up!" Zelk was really happy, for she and her friend were members of the Bonebound, and now they felt like they had a true purpose. Though as they walked they came across a white lion cub. But to Zelk and Orlaith, this looked like a new friend! Zelk scampered to the cub. "Hey I'm Zelk, and this is Orlaith! You want to be our friend?" Zelk's stubby tail wagged as she greeted the other cub.

Orlaith started to move more quickly as her friend Zelk told her to hurry up. "I'm moving Zelk, you don't have to get your fur in a bunch." Her proper British accent rolled off her tongue as she spoke. Then, she noticed Zelk run off to a white lion cub going up the stairs as well. The tigress quickly followed as she joined Zelk in front of the cub. "Hello, I'm Orlaith. I would love it if you can be our friend. Your eyes look very pretty, they're sparkling white. Orlaith gave the lioness a big smile, reassuring her that she and Zelk were really nice gembounds.

Well, her quiet walk had changed into two kind cubs asking her to be hr friend. As usual her face was void of emotion, not because she was feeling bad or anything. That was just how Atinneas was. Well, these other two cubs seemed very kind, so why not!. "Hello Zelk and Orlaith. I would like to be your friend too. I'm Atinneas, your new friend. The lion cub had never had any friends before, and inside she felt happy. She kept Zelk and Orlaith's voices locked in her head and committed it to memory. Now, she knew that wherever she was in the caves, she would have two great friends she could rely on.
