With his wounds mostly healed, he was getting impatient on going home to tell his parents that he would be leaving. Oh if he only knew the irony of what was to happen. Hearing someone call for him that was unfamiliar he couldn't help but be filled with curiosity. So carefully he slunk out of his den approaching the source, he barely remembered Helah and because she had disguised herself so well he couldn't tell who this lioness was. Brows furrowed, he frowned thinly tilting his head, "uhm.. can I help you?" he asked cautiously, not revealing his name yet. Unaware Helah would know him by appearance alone so this was futile.
August Y12
Summer
The summer season has finally reached its peak. The sunshine is plentiful, the days are long and the air is hot and humid - but the evenings do not seem to provide the same relief that they once had, and remain somewhat stuffy. Thunderstorms have also began appearing more frequently, particularly in the rainforest and eastern region, though the rain is welcomed after a relatively dry season thus far.

Mismatched eyes narrowed at her, this wasn't why she was here... she was here for him. But he couldn't place her. "I'm not Beñat," he lied smoothly, a frown on his maw. Carefully he moved closer but kept a space between them, glancing at the blood. "Broken nose. A cub tripped and smacked his face too hard into the ground," he lied, squinting at her nostrils flared. It had lost its swelling but there were some cuts upon it, and the bridge of his nose was slightly pushed up.
"it's a hyena den, we shouldn't linger..." he added in a careful lie, unaware she could easily take apart his lie without much effort. He was sizing her up, he needed whoever she was to leave. "Hey so... let us go find who this Beñat is yeah? A cub was lingering not far from here," he said with a hopeful smile taking a few steps in that direction. He needed to lead her away.

Beñat felt uneasy when she smiled, who the hell was she? And the way she watched him when he moved made him wildly uncomfortable to have his back to her. "Yeah, well," he muttered coolly though his face had grown colder. "Maybe I watched it happen..." he lied smoothly because it wasn't a total lie after all. Mismatched eyes narrowed at her, shaking his head ruffling the longer fur on his neck."no, am I supposed to?" he asked with a snort of irritation. This was becoming annoying. "You need to leave. Whoever you are looking for isn't here. There is nothing for you here." he said suddenly firmly, boldly even. Acting older than he was. It was amazing how trauma could make you grow a little quicker.

"y-yeah!" he cleared his voice quickly of the nervousness before continuing, "Yeah I watched, so what?" he challenged trying to appear indifferent but finding it hard he needed more practice... She proceeded to speak and he scoffed rolling his eyes he was calling her bluff by turning sideways. But on the turn, her last words slipped free and it caused him to freeze. His heart was hammering so hard in his chest it almost hurt.
"...Here's a message for my father Rosette," he muttered, voice deeper and far colder than before. Body turned again to face her with an angry look in his eyes while he spoke, "Tell him he can go fuck himself" Then he was charging, fuelled by the anger he felt inside which overrode any sense of judgment. Beñat normally knew this was futile, he was still young and inexperienced, but with anger swelling up inside him it overloaded any common sense.
Lips peeled into a snarl he attempted to swing a clawed paw out at Helah's face, hoping she would back off. His jaws snapped at the front of her neck just below her throat. He was doing this to send a message, not to hurt her seriously.

Beñat thought for sure he would at least make contact. And he did. When her paw collided with the side of his head making he hit the ground with a grunt. His head was spinning and he was struggling to focus. Probably because of this, she got her way. Beñat felt her paw smash down onto his right foreleg, and the bones buckled beneath the intense hit. A loud SNAP and he screamed in pain. This hurt so much worse than his broken nose! Rolling away from her he snarled, "You stupid..." he growled instead deciding it was time to go. Turning he tried to run on his three legs, to get away from her.
Beñat would not get far though, he had only got a few feet away before he collapsed. His head ached, and now so did his leg. Groaning in pain he cried for Asteria. Though he had a feeling she wouldn't make it in time. "MOM!" he yelled feebly before passing out.
