(In Progress) The Lion King: The Three Rulers

Familliar Foes

     As night fell, Tiifu found herself tiring and decided to sit next to a tree overlooking the plains at the Tree of Life. How could Zuri say that! She was supposed to be supportive, her friend, but... but was she right? Baliyo hadn't really paid much attention to her when she arrived. Tiifu sighed as something in the plains below caught her eye. It was a young wildebeest, but not just that, she was running. Running from...

TIIFU: "Oh no!", she mumbled then growled, "a poacher!"

Tiifu knew what she should do, get the guardians of course, but another idea entered her mind. "If I can stop this poacher, Baliyo will definitely notice me!", she thought.

Meanwhile, the young wildebeest tripped over a rock, stumbled and fell, facing her attacker.

KAJIK: "Gotcha now...", the leopard growled...

YOUNG WILDEBEEST: "No, please, this isn't a hunting ground! You can't!", she pleaded.

KAJIK: "That need not matter my dear, I am not from these parts, and you won't be here much longer either...", he said as he lunged.

However, as he did so, the leopard was blindsided and tackled backward by a golden figure who now pinned him to the ground.

TIIFU: "Go! I got this!", she called after the Wildebeest.

YOUNG WILDEBEEST: "O-Ok, don't need to tell me twice!", she said and ran off, though she knew that this lioness would need help, especially after seeing the others she hadn't yet.

TIIFU: "That is quite enough poacher! Now-", Tiifu stopped mid sentence upon seeing who the predator was beneath her, "Kajik?!"

MEANWHILE

----------------

KION: "Are you sure!!!", he roared angrily at the news brought to him by Mkali.

MKALI: "Affirmative my king, they are back!", she confirmed.

RANI: "I never thought they'd be stupid enough to return after last time...", she angrily growled.

BALIYO: "They never give up!", he growled.

KION: "Well, I would think their stay has been long enough! Nirmala, Surak, Baliyo, stay here and tend to our subjects. Fuli, Bunga, Ono, Beshte and my beautiful Queen lets-", he exclaimed about to head out..

YOUNG WILDEBEEST: "My King! My King!", she called before Kion had the chance to leave with his group.

MKALI: "Hold on, you can't just block-", she tried to say before being cutoff by another also blocking their path out.

ZURI: "Kion! I need you guys, its an emergency!", she yelled.

RANI: "Yes, Zuri, we know! Poachers! We were just about to head out!"

KION: "Now, with strength and respect....", he yelled leading Rani, Fuli, Bunga, Beshte, Ono, and Azzad to confront the enemy.

GUARDIANS: "Guardians of life, protect!", they answered back.

ZURI: "Wait, it isn't just that!", she argued desperately after them to no avail as they were already gone.

NIRMALA: "Zuri, calm down, what is it that you...", she tried to speak.

ZURI: "It is about Tiifu! She is in danger!", she screamed tearing up.

       The whole group was stunned for a moment, none so more than Baliyo.
