Delano reached the border of the grasslands and the jungle. There, he spotted Mheetu and Maximus, eying a herd of wildebeest. Delano thought to call over them, but decided not to, as it would alert the prey. So instead, he settled with lying down on a log where he could watch the two and see how well their hunt would go.
Or rather, how badly. At first, Mheetu and Maximus dashed towards the prey, Mheetu in the lead, and suddenly he let out a startled roar of pain. From where Delano was, it looked like Maximus had accidentally stumbled into Mheetu, sending the two of them rolling. In an instant, Delano was up on his feet again and running towards the two others, in order to check what happened. But to his horror, as he was running, Mheetu and Maximus got up and started fighting each other
Now desperate, Delano ran even faster. As he ran, he shouted, "Stop that right now!" Mheetu turned to look, and Maximus pounced on him. Hard. Delano took on one more burst of speed and charged at Maximus. He crashed into the other lion, but instead of rolling, he used his momentum to land on his feet. "Stop this right now!" he demanded, clearly furious.
He moved to where he could see both Mheetu and Maximus. The two of them were both wounded, but Mheetu looked worse by far, with a nasty shoulder wound that made him unable to put much weight on it. Delano was furious at the both of them, though. "What just happened?" he practically was shouting at them. "One of you need to start talking. Now." Out of the corner of his eye, Delano saw Tempesta running towards them, but he ignored her for now, waiting to get some answers from the two lions in front of him.
