[Private] KingKivuli, Zeke and Amanda

[Panda-chan]

Amanda dug her claws deeper into the fur on Kivuli's mane, trying to get a firm grip so she could look around her as Kivuli and Zeke ran through the Pridelands. She had never imagined he could run this fast. Rocks and trees whipped by and disappeared in mere seconds, while the wind whistling around them threatened to throw her off balance. But Amanda clung on, watching the blurred scenery around her with fascination.
Kivuli turned his head sharply to the right. It looked like he'd seen something. "What's wrong?" Amanda asked, slightly confused.

[Zeke]

Zeke looked back to where Kivuli had his eyes locked on and his blood ran cold. What he saw was a group closing in on them at an extremely fast pace. No! Not now! I'm in no condition to fight, He thought, trying to pick up his speed only to be rewarded with an immense amount of pain. "Kivuli!" He roared, struggling to keep up with his friend. "Kivuli! We got a group on our tails! What do we do?"

[KingKivuli]

Kivuli skidded to a halt. The grooup was going to get them they had no choice. He got Amanda off his back 'Amanda run back and find Simba we are going to need help' he then turned to Zeke 'I know oyu are badly injured, but we need to hold this group off until we get help. I cant let them get to this Pride'

Zane and the group were clsoing fast 'HA just two lions and one on them beat already! This will be easy' The group charged forward. Amanda mangaged to get away while Zeke and Kivuli prepared for combat. When the group arrived they wasted no time in surround the pair. Zane stepped forward to examine his opponents 'Well what have we here, some strays?' As Zane examined he finally recognised Kivuli. They had once been friends until they decided to part ways 'Kivuli is that you?'

Kivuli examinied this lion back and recognised him aswell 'Zane? It cant be. What are you doing here?'

'Im leading this small group, with my new friend Hokori' Kivuli looked over at Hokori and studied him before focusing back on Zane. 'This group is part of a small pride they saved me. They then took me in as their own and made me stronger' said Zane

Kivul now studied the group. Something was familiar about them that made him feel uneasy. It was the eyes mostly. They looked like they were piercing Kivuli and Zekes bodies

[Zeke]

Hokori focused mainly on the injured one. Despite the obvious pain through his extenisve injuries, he still had a look of courage in his eyes. Hokori squared up to Zeke, prepared for the slaughter.

Zeke said nothing and stared hard back at Hokori. The lion's cloudy eyes made Zeke question his sight yet they also stabbed right through him like daggers. He knew he couldn't last long against even one of these lions, yet he was prepared to hold his ground.

[Panda-chan]

Amanda quickly hid in the tall grass before the two foreign lions saw her. She was about to start running back to Pride Rock when a thought struck her so suddenly that she almost fell off-balance. Getting help would no doubt aid them in fighting the unknown lions, but what if Kivuli and Zeke were already dead by the time help arrived? But Amanda knew she couldn't just jump in and try to stop them from fighting. One small cub would be no match against two large, powerful, fully-grown lions. Standing here and doing nothing wouldn't help the situation either. What do I do? she thought frantically. It seemed her best option was to run and get help, despite the danger of Kivuli and Zeke being killed before she came back.
Amanda braced herself for the long sprint home. The tall concealing grass ended right in front of her, meaning that if she ran out of it, she would definitely be seen. She decided it was worth the risk. Besides, there was no reason for those two lions to start chasing her when they were already dealing with Kivuli and Zeke. So Amanda took a deep breath, closed her eyes, and ran out from under the cover of the grass.

[KingKivuli]

Kivuli studied the pack closely. He finally realized what disturbed him so much. The lower part of their legs faded into black and white stripes. Kivuli now knew who they were 'Zeke we have a problem' He whispered to his friend 'look at their legs. dont they seem familiar to you?'

Meanwhile Simba and Nala were on their way back to priderock after a refreshing drink. They were unaware that not too far away a fight was about to break out and chaos could engulf the peaceful land

[Panda-chan]

Amanda ran as fast as her little paws would carry her. Glancing back, she was relieved to see that no one was chasing her. They'd probably thought she was a gopher or something. She turned her head back to the path in front of her. It was a long way to Pride Rock, but if she paced herself well it shouldn't take more than ten minutes. The cub glanced back one more time, took a deep breath, and broke into a massive sprint. Hopefully at this speed she and the others would be able to get to Pride Rock and back in time to save Kivuli and Zeke.

"Simba, have you seen my daughter, Amanda? Kivuli and Zeke are missing too. I haven't seen them in ages." Semira stared anxiously at the king, waiting for a reply. She bit her lip nervously, her fur unkempt with worry. Could what she'd feared all along have come true? Did Kivuli and Zeke finally kidnap her daughter? Semira closed her eyes and forced herself to take a deep breath. She was jumping to conclusions. She needed to think this out calmly and rationally. They were probably out taking a walk or something. Or maybe Kivuli was teaching her some valuable hunting techniques. But no matter how much Semira tried to reason with herself, the cold and troubling thought of her daughter's abduction would not leave her alone. Somehow she knew Amanda was in trouble, and the only way she could possibly save her was to get Simba to help.

[Zeke]

Zeke listened to Kivuli intently as he spoke while keeping eye contact with the one that stood before him. He noticed the stripes but said nothing, he was too focused on the fight ahead.

Hokori sat impatiently, waiting for his comrade's command to stike. He was anxious to feel blood drip down his claws and face once more.

[KingKivuli]

Kivuli was sure. These were the lions that destroyed his and Zeke's old pride. 'Zane. Do you know who this pride is? They are are ones that destroyed my family and my friends'

'This is that pride? The ones you told me about?'
'Yes there is no doubt'
'Then your an idiot Kivuli. This pride is the way forward. We already have control of several lands'
'You will not take these Pridelands, not while im here'
'Then you will die. ATTACK THEM!'

With that order the pride began their assult on Kivuli and Zeke. Although greatly out numbered and still injured the both of them started to put up a brave fight

Back at Priderock, Simba was talking to Semira and was startled at the news 'There missing! Semira you were ment to keep an eye on them. Take your lionesses and search round Priderock' Semira looked sheepishly at Simba before turning away and began her search. As Simba walked off he caught movement in the grass heading for him. It was Amanda. She had ran full force to get back. Not wasting anytime, SImba ran down Priderock to talk to her. She was gasping for air, as she had never ran so fast. As Simba approached he spoke to her 'Amanda are you ok? What happened? Wheres Kivuli and Zeke?' He then noticed that she was tired and needed rest 'I'm sorry you tired take what time you need before you speak'

[quote]Because of the issue that happened with the forum (viewtopic.php?f=2&p=44520), my post got deleted, so I'm just going to recap everything that happened:

Amanda ran back to Pride Rock and tried her best to tell Simba where Kivuli and Zeke were before passing out.
Semira ordered her lionesses to search every inch of Pride Rock for them.
