Welcome to Gaia! ::

Kain had woken early that morning, as he always tended to do. Being a Tae that wondered a lot and never gained his own territory meant that he had to been more aware of his surroundings. If he slept in with trespassing on another territory things could get ugly. He’d never actually encountered another Tae that wished to fight him, but he was always prepared for such happening still.

Traveling along a narrow path that followed a stream the male searched for his morning meal. He didn’t see any signs that anyone else actually lived in this area. Maybe he should take it as his own? Why not, after all he had traveled most of the land and really this place was as good as the next. There was nothing special about any of the places he had been too. No one that he had met interested him. They where all the same, boring and far to annoying for his taste.

Stopping his movements he looked over a small pool that formed in the stream, where the land flattened just enough for the water to rest some. Eyeing this Kain thought a moment before nodding to himself and stepping forwards. His first paw dipped into the water before he pulled it back out and shook it. Water was a little cooler then he was expecting, but moving forwards slowly he allowed the cool liquid to cover his fur. The pool wasn’t deep, it covered him back and shoulders but with his feet still on the bottom head was above the water as well as the end of his tail.

Dunking himself under the water the white tiger like male swam across the stream and back again before surfacing. Shacking his head he sent the water that had been dripping into his eyes flying about. Opening them his ears perked at the sound of paws padding against the ground. A low growl left his throat at the thought that this may just be another’s territory. Even if it was merely another Tae passing through he didn’t feel like having unwanted company. Judging which side of the pool the other was approaching on me moved the that side. Using the over hang of the pool edge as cover he remained still. He wasn’t hiding, just staying out of sight. He really didn’t need to be caught up in another pointless and unending conversation with yet another loser.

Waiting where he was he could head paw steps, but he couldn’t see the other. From where he was she could smell the male, and when the sounds of steps stopped he knew he was being watched but still couldn’t see the male. It wasn’t until Rohin made and noise and wondered off that Kain go to see the orange stripped Tae though not well. He waited to see if the male would return and was glad when he didn’t, going back to swimming. It was another half an hour before he pulled himself from the watch and shook off. His now clean and pure white fur glistening in the rays of sun making it through the canopy and onto his back. His rainbowed tiger like strips stood out against the white well. Walking he looked for somewhere to dry off, coming upon a small clearing big enough for two or three adult Taes to rest in. He laid himself out in the center and closed his eyes. Her he woud dry and catch a small nap.

Drifting off slightly in the warmth of the sun, Kain hadn’t noticed the other males approach at all. The weight that landed on him caused his eyes to shoot open but as they did small water droplets fell into the red orbs. She squinted and rolled over as he heard the males voice, knocking the other off of him. Springing to his feet he jumped away before turning to Rohin, blinking the blur from him eyes as he growled slightly in his throat. Glaring at the other tiger like male he looked Rohin up and down. “What the hell is you're problem?”

Kain raised an eye brow a little, staring a moment before blinking finally. He wasn’t quiet sure what the male had meant by his first statement but he also wasn’t sure he wanted to know. Narrowing his eyes the rainbow male grinned. He noticed the natural muscle tone below the strips of orange and figured this male had followed his scent, hoping for a fight. Taking a casual seat he ignored the first question and went straight to the fun part. “ What would you say if I told you I planned to make it my own? What would you do? ”

Kain was taken aback by the other male’s words. He’d had females try to become his mate, but never a male. He made himself stay in place and sounding calm, but his eyes gave a moment of showing his shock. “ Hmph... I actually find it enjoyable. And, if you really are this lands Master, them to keep it you will have to defeat me. ” Raising to his feet again he stepped forwards. Kain stood just a little taller than Rohin. In his travel he had grown stronger, fighting others to keep up his strength. Upon a close look of his fur there where thin lines here and there. Old scars from battles long since left behind. He wasn’t afraid to fight for what he wanted and believed he deserved.

Some of Kain had actually expected the other male to turn and run. After all he didn’t seem like the fighting type. But either way Kain didn’t care. He walked around the other a little, eyeing him. Sizing him up and looking for weak points. His next movements where quick, remarkable quick. His paw shifted underneath him as he through dust up into Rohin’s eyes. His next move was too bat at the others head, though he wasn’t other male was made of before going to far.
