Not so Much Hakuna Matata (DGFone & SimbaGamer)

[DGFone]

Simba ran through the jungle, away from Timon and Pumbaa. Even though he still considered them as his best friends, sometimes even adoptive parents, but now, he had enough of them. Or rather, he had enough of Timon's lectures on Hakuna Matata. "For someone who tells me not to worry," Simba muttered under his breath, "Timon certainly worries a lot. He does worry enough not to shut up about teaching me about Hakuna Matata!" He kept on running, to get distance between him and Timon, who might decide to ride on Pumbaa to catch up to him. For now, he was simply content on running. To use pent up energy that would otherwise spill out in anger and pain. Simba didn't look where he was running, but for now, he didn't care. He would find his way back when he would need to.


Pumbaa saw Simba run off when Timon started to lecture yet again, but didn't pay much attention to it. Timon looked furious at having his student run off, but Pumbaa didn't care. "Come on, Timon. Let's go grab up some grub!" he suggested. "I'm starved!"

[Ultra Fox]

"Oh, you and your food, Pumbaa! Can't you see I'm tryin' to tell Simba about Hakuna Matata!?", Timon said quite furiously.

[DGFone]

Pumbaa thought about it. "But Timon, doesn't he already know about Hakuna Matata?" he asked. "I think you are also hungry, which is why you are acting... strangely." Pumbaa turned and went in search of a nice log to pull over for the grubs inside.


Simba ran until he couldn't run anymore. He slowed to a walk, but continued moving. Should Timon and Pumbaa be following him, Pumbaa could easily catch up to him. "Who does Timon think he is, anyways?" Simba demanded furiously. "Why can't he take his own advice, sometimes?"

Simba's ears twitched when he heard laughter behind him. His heart sank when he saw the source: two hyenas were advancing on him. And they didn't look very friendly.

"Oh look what we have here, Banzai! It's Mufasa's kid again!" Shenzi said with a grin on her face.

"Ha! You're coming with us kid!" Banzai said as he and Shenzi jumped onto the nearly defenseless Simba.

[DGFone]

Simba gulped as he realized who he had stumbled upon. "You leave me alone!" he said furiously, trying to sound brave. Instead, all he got was laughter for his efforts. "I can handle you! You're no tougher than before!" But the hyenas didn't back down. He had to run.

Simba turned and ran, but only got a short lead before something grabbed on his tail painfully. Simba was hoisted into the air, hanging by his tail, as one of the hyenas grabbed him. "Put me down!" he cried out. He tried to claw his captor, but he couldn't reach anything. He was defenseless.

[Ultra Fox]

"So, Shenzi?" Banzai asked. "When do we get to kill the kid?"

"Let's wait till we get to the graveyard, Banzai." Shenzi replied. "We don't want Mr. Stupid to be left out."

"Who's Mr. Stupid? Banzai asked confused.

"Mr. Stupid is Ed, stupid!" Shenzi said in frustration. The hyenas dragged the defenseless Simba along to their lair.

[DGFone]

Simba knew that he had to escape. Ignoring the jaws clamped firmly on his tail, he started thrashing as much as he can, hoping to slip out of their grip. The hyena did not let go, so Simba cried for help. Again, the hyenas laughed at him as they carried him away.

No one came to help, and Simba tried calling out even louder. He must have stopped being funny to them, and started annoying, because the next thing that happened, something hit Simba on the back of the head, hard, and he slipped into unconsciousness.

[Ultra Fox]

"Alright, kid. That's enough ruckus from you!" Shenzi said with a laugh. The hyenas continued to drag Simba along.

"Um, Shenzi... I'm getting kinda tried..." Banzai tried to explain. "Can we take a break?"

"No, moron." Shenzi replied. "We have to get him to the graveyard ASAP! If we don't, imagine what Scar will do! They kept trudging on and were slowly making their way back to their home.

[DGFone]

When Simba woke up, he was still hanging by his tail from the hyena's mouth. His head felt like something was pounding on it continuously, and his back was in tremendous pain from the hanging as well. Groggily, he opened his eyes. It was nighttime, and from what Simba could see, they were in the middle of a large desert. He shivered from the intense cold. Being upside-down for such a long time was making his dizzy.

Why where they in the desert? While the hyenas hadn't stopped yet, it was only a matter of time before they would have to in order to rest. "Where are you taking me?" He asked. He wanted to sound tough, but all he managed was a small whimper.

[Ultra Fox]

The hyenas were starting to become very exhausted. There were walking across the barren desert slower and slower. Finally, Shenzi said, "Wait a minute... why the heck did you take us into the desert, Banzai?"

Banzai stopped in his tracks and said, "Well, I don't know. I thought this was the way back to the graveyard."

Shenzi was getting angry, "It IS the way to the graveyard, but we just so happened to choose the longest way! We're either gonna die here or get back home with a serious sunburn!"

"So, uh... do you think we should stop here and rest?" Banzai asked.

"Yeah, sure..." Shenzi said as they both started to lay down and rest till the next morning.

"Wait! One more thing," Baznai said as he bonked Simba on the head once more to make sure he wouldn't escape.
