Roleplay- 4th of January

Duke follows next to his mate.

Linda calls her pups and starts heading off, picking up Ninji.

Tyson follows, his little legs slowly moving him along.

Caffeine vaguely feels someone pick her up as she continues to fall asleep... however she just dangles from Comet's mouth.

Overwhelming exhaustion begins to overpower Ninji, averting her attention from the certainly relieved cockroach which doesn't waste any time scurrying for its home posthaste, and making her doze off. She doesn't respond as she feels her mother gently grip her scruff and pick her up off the ground as she is too tired to move. She just allows her relaxed body to just dangle freely in her mom's grasp.

Ninja trots beside his mate, eager to get back to the burrow, though he pauses every now and then to make sure all of their children and the other tots are keeping pace.

Phoebe yawns tiredly before she follows her family in a tired fashion.

Ouija closely follows the leaders, his pace slightly slowed and patterned by his perpetual, obscure limp in his leg. But, he managed to keep up; with how long his limb had been characterised by injury, he had become accustomed to the burden.

Aliya led her mob, looking ahead.

John walked beside Velmarie.

Root looked around as he walked.

Petal walked beside Comet and smiles at him. He surely seemed like a kind male. She kept her pace to match his.

ooc- The new rule seems to have some of us in a deadlock. I'd like to keep things moving if that's alright.

ic- Duke keeps pace next to his mate, watching the area for any threats that may put the mob in jeopardy.

Linda walks next to Ninja, Ninja still in her mouth.

Tyson peeps, falling behind.

ooc: Yeah that's fine. It's been inactive for a variety of reasons though which is understanable.

Ninja walks jovially beside his mate, happy with how things went today. For once, the mob experienced a day free of turmoil. Unfortunately this tranquil gap will only last for a short period of time. Little does Ninja and the rest of the Jumaa know Fate plans to thrust them into turmoil once again in the upcoming weeks.

Ninji has drifted off to sleep in her mother's ginger grasp, worn out from all the exploring.

*Velmarie smiled as she walked beside her mate. As long as she was with him, the world was bright.*

Caffeine is still asleep in Comet's grasp and is dreaming about having dug a hole filled with an endless supply of bugs.

Aliya looks up ahead. She stops suddenly, feeling a stab of pain from her stomach. She haunches over, gritting her teeth. Not again! However, as quickly as it came, it went away. She blinked at this, but shook off what had happened and assumes leading her mob.

John watched Aliya, worriedly. At least this time her stomach pains was short. But to him, it felt like forever. He shook his head when he saw her straighten herself and moves on. She surely was strong...

Root was also worried as he saw Aliya haunch over in pain briefly. Those accursed Midnights! He growls quietly. Whoever did this to Aliya, he'd kill them!

Petal is still with Comet and Caffeine, failing to notice what happened with Aliya.

A pang of dread manifests inside Ninja as he witnesses Aliya endure another episode of false labor pains. Once they abate suddenly, he relaxes, but is still worried. With each false labor pain comes the chance of Aliya aborting the litter due to what those heartless Midnights did to her. If Aliya ends up losing the litter, the next time they're pitted against them, Ninja will shred every Midnight individual that makes contact with him limb from limb in a brutal fashion.

Ninji is gazing at her surroundings inquisitively and doesn't notice Aliya having another episode of dibilitating false labor cramps.
