A Change of Plans [PRIVATE: AC & The Whistlerify]

[AustralianChaos]

Tanga's grin widened as Marini suggested the game, before getting yet another idea. "Great idea, Rini! Hang on..." he then turned towards Simba and Nala. "Hey, Simba, Nala! You playing, too...or is it just the three of us?"

He then turned to Uhuru, deciding he needed to apologise for his earlier actions once more time. "Look, Uhuru, I am sorry about before...I really didn't mean to hurt you like that, and I hope this helps make up for it...I'm sure you're gonna love this game."

----------

Nala grinned as she heard Tanga and Marini begin to plan a game of hide-and-seek with Uhuru, but was mildly surprised when Tanga offered to let them join in. None of them had really played any cubbish games since their exile, since everyone was focused on learning to hunt and otherwise survive their small existance.

Turning to Simba, she gave him a look tha plainly said she was all for joining in. "Well, Simba...you wanna play, too? It'll be just like old times, huh?"

[TheWhistlerify]

Uhuru looked up at Tanga, still smiling her cubbish smile before she spoke up "How do you play this game?" she asked playfully, wandering what was so great about this game so that it made Tanga prommise that she'll love it

Simba grinned back at Nala, "Just like old times." he said as he got up and began walking towards where the other three were waiting.

[AustralianChaos]

Tanga smiled at Uhuru, waving to acknowledge Simba and Nala's presence, before explaining the rules.

"You do pretty much what the name of the game says. Before we start, someone is picked to be the 'Seeker'. Everyone else is the 'Hider'. The Seeker must find a spot where they close their eyes and count to a certain number. While they are counting, they are not allowed to open their eyes. While the Seeker counts, the Hiders all have to find hiding spots where they think the Seeker will never, ever find them. Once the Seeker finishes counting, they'll call out 'Here I come, ready or not!' to let everyone know that they have started looking. The Seeker then has to try and find all the Hiders. The winner is the last one of the Hiders to be found. Once everyone has been found, usually the winner is chosen to be the Seeker next, but that can be changed."

Tanga looked down at Uhuru, following Marini's lead and lowering his head so he wasn't standing over her all the time. "Did you understand all that?"

[TheWhistlerify]

Uhuru listened to the rules as Tanga explained them, it sounded like a very fun game to play. "Yeah, sounds fun!" she said and stood up on her back legs, placing her two front legs on her brother's nose

[AustralianChaos]

Tanga smiled as Uhuru placed her paws on his nose, seeming to have completely forgiven him for his earlier problem. "Well, then...let's get started!"

He then looked up, addressing all the others. "Alright, then, who's seeking? This is Uhuru's first time playing this, so we'll let her hide a couple of times first to get into the game."

----------

Nala looked around,taking a couple of steps away from Tanga. "I'm not...I'm definitely hiding!" she said energetically, already getting into her cubbish spirit at the prospect of a game, ready to have a lot of fun showing Uhuru just how to play like a pro.

[TheWhistlerify]

Uhuru giggled, "Ooohh, can you seek?" she asked excitedly, jumping on her brother's head.

Simba and Marini took the oppertunity Uhuru gave them to be hiders as well, "Yeah Tanga, you seek first." Marini said as she picked Tanga's little sister up and placed her down. Uhuru probably knew the place better then everybody else, and Marini knew she could use her help to find a descent hiding place

[AustralianChaos]

Tanga laughed as Uhuru suggested he played the seeker first, jumping on his head in the process. He was about to protest when Marini and Simba concurred with Uhuru, effectively making the decision for him.

"Alright, then," he said as Marini picked up Uhuru and put her back on the ground. Rubbing his mane to fix its appearance up after Marini's adventure on top of it, he thought for a brief moment. "Okay, the rules of this one are simple. You MUST hide somewhere on the hill, nowhere else!" he said, eyeing Marini particularly, since the two of them had already explored the tall grass near the hill. "Second, I'm going to count to fifty, okay?"

[TheWhistlerify]

Marini rolled her eyes at this, but nodded in agreement as Uhuru began hopping next to her with excitement. She bent her head to her and whispered something to the cub quietly before throwing Tanga a sly smile. The two talked, obviously about a hiding place before SImba broke the silence. "Let's get started." he said, already eager on playing

[AustralianChaos]

Tanga narrowed his eyes playfully at Marini, before jolting back to awareness at Simba's words. "Okay," he said said, lying down in the grass beside the remains of the wildebeest...it was in an open area, wih no hiding spots nearby, making it a good starting spot.

"Alright, guys, go hide!" he declared, covering his eyes with his paws, as he started to count. "One...Two...Three..."

----------

Nala grinned as Tanga started to count, before sprinting off, looking for somewhere to hide. She was tempted to go with Simba, at least for a little while...but wanted the bragging rights that came with winning the game without assistance from fellow hiders...it was just the way she played.

[TheWhistlerify]

Simba turned towards the hill and ran for it. He was eager to win this one, especialyl because they had'nt played for a long time.

Marini motioned to Uhuru, who giggled and followed. The two of them running towards some bushes that lay between the waterhole to the hill, just on the bottom of it, but still on the hill
