The young male loved the zebra, he was a beauty. Petting the creature he smiled and waved bye to it as he was lead off to a new pen. Pausing he looked to the male lion. Staring back like he too was assessing the soul of the other. He looked to his new friend and then slowly back at the lion before walking closer slowly. Cautiously he stopped. The move Jason did next should have been guarded, more slow and cared for. He never meant to move so fast that had the beast reach out and slash his chest. Jason had fallen back with a yelp, staring up at the lion like he was not sure why he got punished for moving. He backed away slowly in a crawl clutching his jacket over the claw marks that shown through the rips now in his shirt, "I didnt mean to honest!" He said whimpering. Biting his tongue soon after from the lain.
