It's been days since Kion's triumph over Hermit, he and his friends were now traveling towards small town where their other friend lived.

Kion: Hey guys, i know it's getting late but nearby there's Beshte's town. Maybe we could go a little further and have a sleep at him?

Bunga: I agree!

Kiara: Me too. It's better to sleep in normal bed in sleeping bag.

Simba: Ono, how far is this town?

Ono: Give me a minute. - he said before rising up in the sky.

Seconds later he returned.

Ono: It's not that far from here, we will get there around the night.

Simba: So it's settled. We keep going!

Minutes later the night came and our heroes entered the town, after couple of more steps a female hyena jumped in their way.

???: Hey, guys! How's it going? I'm Bird; it's nice to meet you. Welcome to our little town.

Simba: How strange for this girl to walk alone at night, talking to strangers. I have a bad feeling about this. - he said in whisper to his comate's.

Kiara: Don't be so worried, dad! There's nothing fishy going on here. She's just being friendly! - she whispered back.

Kion not knowing why, had a feeling that Bird was trouble.

Bird: Wanna see some sights? I'll show you my favorite part of town first – it'll take your breath away... once and for all! - she throwing herself at them with knives in her hands.

Thankfully Kion reacted quickly and blocked her attack.

Kion: Keep your hands of my family!

SOME TIME LATER

Kion dealt with her in blink of an eye, when Bird laid on the ground Kion walked towards and pointed the blade of his sword right in her face.

Bird: Please don't hurt me! I just got mixed up with the wrong people, that's all. Let me go and I promise to stop tricking travelers.

Kion: Tell me who sent you here.

Bird: My boss! He told me to wait for 3 lions, a bird and oversized rat.

Bunga: HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! Oversized rat! That's a good one!

Kiara: She's talking about you, Bunga.

Kion: Who's your boss. Tell me!

Bird: And why should i tell you!

Kion decided to use his trick with setting his sword on fire.

Kion: I'm going to ask you again: who is your boss.

Bird: Butcher! That's my boss name! Butcher!

Kion: Where is his hideout?

Bird: I had told you enough! Now let me go!

Simba: Let her go Kion, she won't bother us again. Right? - he asked looking directly at Bird.

Bird: Of course! You will never see me! I swear!

Simba: Good. Now go.

And as fast as Bird showed up she disappeared in the city.

Kion: Butcher?

Simba: The name itself gives shivers.

Kion: We must find Beshte. He might tell us what's going on here.

Simba: I think the same.

Our heroes went futher into the town and arrived under Beshte's fathers pub and knocked on the door. When the door opened they revealed a familiar hippo.

Kion: Good evening Beshte? Can we enter?

Beshte: Kion? Bunga? Ono? Kiara and Master Simba? Sure, come inside.

Moments later they entered the building.

Beshte: So, what takes you here guys?

Kion: Let's talk tomorrow, we are all tired and it's a long story.
