Kopa POV
I walked for hours. It was almost dark when I reached the mountain.
"Huff...puff woo I made it...finally" I laid down. I was out of breath from climbing a mountain all day.

Ishi POV
"He is here Ishi" said Mira.
"Yes he is".
"What do we do"
"I assume he wants help".
"So we actually help him"
I winked at Mira.
"Okay" she said sneakily.

Kopa POV
After I caught my breath I began to walk around to find the cave Surak talked about. The top of the mountain was different to the other parts of the mountain. Less jungle and more rock and snow. I eventually found a shallow cave. It was to dark to see in so I decided to yell.
"Hello is anyone in there".
No response.
"I'm looking for Ishi and Mira".
No response.
"They helped get to the tree to heal and I wanted to know if they would help me again".
Still no response from the cave.
"Didn't anyone tell you not to yell on mountain tops" said A strange voice from behind me. I jumped at the sudden male voice.
"Woah there kind of jumpy aren't we" said a female voice. A few feet away in the darkness stood two figures. I could only see their eyes.
"Hey you wouldn't happen to know where I could find Ishi and Mira could you".
"Depends" said the female voice.
"Why you askin" said the male voice.
"I need their help with finding my way to the pridelands".
"Then we..." the male voice began. The two figures stepped out of the dark. They were two serval "are them".
"So you guys will help me".
"Yes I am Ishi" said the male.
"I am Mira" said the female.
"Okay great then my trip up here wasn't wasted".
"Not wasted in deed" said Mira.
"But we shall tell you only if you do something for us".
I sighed.
"What do you need".
"We want the orange bloom flower that grows at the peak of the mountain". I looked up, at the peak of the was a small orange flower with red petal tips.
"Okay can do". I walked away.
"Oh do be careful few make to the peak". I walked around the peak slowly rising on its narrowing slope. I got closer and closer to the flower. I began to slip and fell back down.
"Told you" said Ishi.
"Don't worry I will get it". I tried. This time I unsheathed my claws to act as an anchor. It worked better but I still began to slip again. I feel back down again. I got back and kept trying. I tried for hours and hours well into the morning. Eventually Ishi and Mira stepped in.
"Hey kid you can go ahead and stop you prove yourself enough"said Mira.
"But I didn't get the flower".
"Your willingness to keep on trying is enough" said Ishi.
"We will leave tomorrow".
"Okay".
"Come kid we will show you where you can sleep". I followed them back down to the cave. They took me into their cave and had me lay down in the back.
"Don't want those wolves after you".
"Yeah they are really persistent".
They sat down near me.
"So how did you guys find me" I said.
"Well we were doing what we usually do, patrolling around the country when we noticed a bloody body. We saw that you were still alive so we took you to the tree of life" said Ishi.
"Thank you for helping".
"Tell why was a cub like you in danger" said Mira.
"I was attacked by a lioness, I don't really know why".
"Well who was she" said Ishi.
"Her name is Zira she was the mate of a lioned named Scar".
"Yes we have heard of him" said Ishi.
"Maybe she was trying to get revenge on you father" said Mira.
"Or maybe you stood in the way of one of Scar's heirs".
It hit just then. That's why she did it. If that was true then why didn't Vitani tell me unless she...didn't know.
"You are right".
"Well she was just as evil as scar" said Ishi. The two looked at each other.
"Don't worry kid we will get you home soon" said Mira.
"Yeah I know the way to the pridelands like the back of my paw".
"Hey kid do you like pranks".
"Yeah of course I do, back in the pridelands my friend and I did them all the time". They both smiled really big.
"Okay then kid follow us".
They lead me down a cliff to a large tree. On the tree was a beehive.
"Okay kid in a few minutes a tiger passes by here. We are going to toss some of these rocks up there and knock the hive down on him".
"Isn't that dangerous".
"I thought you said you loved pranks".
"Yeah but I never did any that could physically hurt anyone".
"Well that feeling you get from harming another will go away trust me" said Ishi. The tiger began to walk down the path. We hid in a bush and gathered some rocks. We began to toss them at the hive until it broken onto the tiger. Bees began stinging him.
"Ahhhh" he shouted as he ran down the path. Ishi and Mira were about to die from laughter. It was funnier than I thought. I chuckled a little.
"Ah you see kid funny".
"Yeah" I laughed.
"Come on let's go get some rest".
We headed back to the cave.
