The new danger in the land

[TheWhistlerify]

Eventually, after what seemed like forever to the worried Simba and Marini, they arrived at Rafiki's tree. "Rafiki!" Simba called. "Are you there? We need you help!"

[Adofo]

Rafiki: What seems to be th- OH MY GOODNESS!
He immediately jumped from his tree.
Rafiki: What happened?!

[TheWhistlerify]

"I don't know." said Simba with a sigh, placing his unconscious friend on the ground.
"I was heading out of the den to go hunting," said Marini, "and I ran into him. He looked like quite a mess, and then he just passed out..."

[Adofo]

Rafiki looked him over.
Rafiki: I t looks like he's been poisoned! I'll be right back!
He quickly climbed back into his tree.
Tua: ......Ma-.....Mar-..Marini....

[TheWhistlerify]

Surprised upon hearing Tua's voice, Marini lay down next to the poisoned lion. "Y-yes?"

[Adofo]

Tua: I'm sorry....I messed....thing up between us........if.....I don't make it.......I want you to....find someone who deserves you....and have a family.....I love you...
He fell back into unconsciousness.
Rafiki: Clear out!
He jumped down with a half a mango fruit but he had put some other things in it. He lifted Tua's head and poured it in his mouth and down his throat. TUa had stopped breathing. After a few seconds he started breathing normal again.
Rafiki: Oh.....okay....I think he'll be okay.

[TheWhistlerify]

Letting out a sigh of relief, Marini stood back up. "I... I have to go..." Turning around, she ran out into the savannah.

[Adofo]

Tua's eyes cracked open and saw Marini running away.
The next day Tua was resting in the den. Still a little numb from being poisoned.
Tua: Simba, have you seen Marini any today?

[TheWhistlerify]

Simba walked up to Tua, shaking his head. "No..." He laid down closely next to his friend. "H-how are you feeling?"

[Adofo]

Tua: Better...not great...but better.
