[FIN] I thought I lost you....( Riot x Nikita x Bob )

[GunSniper]

Nikita's neck crained a bit while her head turned upward to look Riot in the eyes. It was harder to challenge someone with such a height difference, however, Nikita was determined to do so.

"It is still important to rest your mind." Nikita spoke boldly still. "I will rest once you have."

Though, his next comment caused her eyes to widen slightly and her bold stature to waver just as slightly. Her tail lowered and the ruby wobbled a bit. Lost to thought?

"... " Nikita drew in a breath before she stepped forward, ducking her head to the his right paw.

Using her own paw she worked to pick up his pawn and place it on her forehead. She didn't care if it was muddy. That didn't matter.

"There. You will be ontop of my thoughts. And if I should move, you would know... Is that fair for you?" Nikita spoke as she looked upward, keeping her head in place.

The ruby wobbled a bit more before falling to the ground with a soft thud.

At first as Nikita approched him, Riot's ear flicked and turned. Riot's paw was easily taken up by Nikita, as she lifted his paw a gentle purr left the large Tahtil.

Slowly adjust his hunches to a sit. Riot Didn't refute Nikita's wise words, he knew he needed the rest.

"Yes," Riot answered curling his body around Nikita the best he could, with out shifting from her hold on his paw.

"But may I request that will you rest with me?" The Tahtill asked, looking up to Crimson gaze. His purring only haulted to speak, and as he finished it started once more.

The magus' tail shifted around the ruby, pulling it close her he kept in care and sight. Knowing how found Nikita had been of it. He was admittly really glad she liked the pinkish rock.

Nikita worked to twist her frame so Riot had an easier time lowering to a rest, and keeping a paw on her forehead. As long as he rested.
Though, she released a soft sigh to the stipulations of Riot's rest. She didn't want to rest yet, she didn't want to lay down completely.

Carefully she lowered herself to the ground, her paws tucked under her frame. One paw stretched out to grab the ruby and hold it tight. A small smile formed on her maw briefly as she regained her precious gem.

She drew in a deep breath, closing her eyes briefly before opening them to look back into Riot.

"Alright. If it you will rest than." Nikita spoke with a gentle, somewhatplayful, sigh while she tucked the paw holding the ruby under her frame.

Her tail curled around her frame delicately. She would be fine to lay there with Riot's paw on her forehead. Which was fine. Her ears would remain allert for anything out of place.

Riot shifted to lay down fully as Nikita lowered herself, moving perfectly in time with her.

"I will, if you stay with me." Riot told her, picking up his paw slightly he brushed her lengthy fur from her Crimson eyes.

Rest his paw back in her forehead. Stretching his head forward, he gently rested his maw. Just letting his nose tip touch her...

His purr rattled strongly as bright blue eyes, remained opened watching her.

Tail shifted around to rest around his body as Nikita reclaimed her precious jewel. He found he had reclaimed his as well.

NIkita lowered her chin to the ground while Riot brought his nose closer. At first her nose wrinkled and a spot of teeth flashed to Riot as his nose made contact. Though, the snarkl was very quick to vanish with a deep breath.

Her head nuzzled up to he large paw on her forehead, which was quick to calm her again. This was someone she could trust, she didn't need to snarl, she didn't need to be angry. She didn't need to growl.

She drew in a deep breath before allowing her eyes to close. It would be easier to hear while her eyes were closed in any case...

"I will not go anywhere..." Nikita affirmed in a whisper.

Her ears perked as tall as they could go while her ears swiveled about. She could hear the birds occasionally, but at this time of evening, they were starting to settle down. Now there was the subtle beeze ristling the leaves, but that was not out of place... so far they were safe.

Riot huffed a breath passed his nostrils as Nikita showed him another 'smile'. She breathed at him, a smile slipped on his maw.

Large paw was firm and gentle as Nikita nuzzled more in to his restful grasp. Blue eyes remained heavy on her, as her own finally closed. Though her ears where wide and listening, his purring settled down to a softer one.

"I want nothing more..." Riot told his friend, happy that she was willing to meet him half way in resting.

A closer look at his skull would reveil that there was a newly form scar that had been grown over and healed by the change in his size. But as clear as day it was still there and it peaked just at the point of the tuff of pink hair on his brow and ended just at the bridge and brow of his eyes. The marks from their clash where healing, and mostly covered by his think fur as most of the blood was wash away in the water.

"Thank you, Nikita..." Riot rumbled with a content flick of his tail.  

[GunSniper]

Nikita's own tail flickered in tune with Riot's. Her eyes opened just long enough to catch the deep gaze she gave him, and from there the scar between his eyes. The sight caused her jaw to tighten a bit. She had caused that... It was likely her headbut causing his mind to be so muddled as it was currently.

As her mind begun to spiral back into that direction, she nuzzled up against his paw gently again. She promised she wouldn't become lost in thought, not with his paw there. Salam. She had to keep her mind from dwelling on that now.

"Rest well Ry." Nikita whispered.

With a deep breath she begun to purr a soft purr herself. She had been told before a purr could heal the body, and perhaps it would allow Riot to rest and heal better. Where she heard that, she couldldn't remember... Cain had helped her sleep by simply purring when she was first taken and believed their lie. But, perhaps it would work with Riot as well.

Watching Nikita's gaze slip to the middle of his brow, Riot's paw gently gripped on her head just a little. It was then, that his eyes fell closed. Hearing her words, Riot's head tilted a little to the side. A smile grew on his maw, as Nikita's purr rattled trough the earth, and flooded his ears.

Heal or not, Nikita's purr did do well to help Lul Riot off to sleep. Slowly along with his muddled thiughts, the large mountain drifted to sleep.

thoughts easily slipped to the foggie abyss of sleep. The mountain remained still, and unmoved as Nikita' soft purring was kind to his subconsious. it was a sound that reminded him even in the slush of his mind of better times. A time that soon would hopefully relive and revitize in their life. They where going to be like a family and cubs again. Riot, even in his sleep looke forward to such a wonderful life. Nikita was near him and hopefully will be so when he woke. It was a subconcious dreed he found he had even as he slept.

But she was for sure a live, and that was a comfort all by it's self. The next time he woke, with promise without a doubt will be an adventure.Next time his gaze opened, hopefully he would see the familure white pelt of his friend.

Even after Riot had fallen to sleep, Nikita remained alert to the surrounding area. Her ears listened intently for any signs of a threat that could be near. She did well to not move so that Riot's paw would not be removed from her forehead. Even after the sun had gone down Nikta remaied alert, eyes close, but ears tuned into the forest.

She could hear small bats fluttering above. The sound was completely different that the sound of a dark-tribe flying through the air. Larger wings, louder noise. Cain would not be able to fly through the trees this easily. The canopy above them was too thick.

Eventually, as tme went on, Nikita begun to drift herself. The sun was nearly back up again and just as the golden rays begun to peek over the hill Nikita finally gave into slumber. Her head lowered than tilted slightly as she fell asleep, her long hours of puring softened to soft breaths.
