"Really?!" lizzy was surprised she had never been joined a race with permission

Ella and Opil with a few other cheetahs lined up "yep c'mon!" She said "first to get there and take down a zebra wins" a voice said from ontop of a rock

Lizzy nodded and got into the line with her eyes targeting the zebra

The count down began and once zero hit everyone took off, Opil was infront Ella close behind a nice space between them and the others they slid around the corner into a hunch of dead trees, Ella slid under some branches while Opil jumped over kicking up dust blinding the others behind them

Lizzy was about a few inches away from Opil and slightly passes him up

Opil smiled and looked at Ella he growled slightly and inched ahead of her his paws pounding the dirt, Ella landed infront of both of them tripping them and pouncing on a zebra snapping it's neck, Opil caught his footing and slowed down chuckling "you always get me with that" he said Patting ella on the shoulder sniffing the dead zebra as the herd flew away

"Your really fast!" she looked at the dead zebra and sat down next to opil

"he probably would have beat us if I didn't trip him" she said before seeing the pups approach for dinner with there mothers, she smiled and layed her head down before a pup jumper on her back "you dids it!" They squealed and played around

she smiled as she watched the pups play "They are so active it reminds me of my brother"

"Ah yes the future leaders and racer's" he smiled his ears perked up to some sounds in the far grass hearing tiny laughing "hyena's" he said softly getting to his feet
