It was a bright and sunny day in the Pride Lands, and the Lion Guard were enjoying a good game of 'Catch the baobab fruit'. Fuli ran with a burst of speed towards Ono, who was carrying the fruit in his talons. "Get that baobab fruit, Fuli!" Bunga cheered. Fuli then jumped up and swiped the fruit out of Ono's grasp. The fruit dropped to the ground and rolled away. "I got it!" Bunga shouted, running after the baobab fruit. "Oh yeah?" Kion challenged, running after Bunga. Alice then ran next to Kion, chasing after the fruit as well. "Ever heard of 'ladies first', boys." She said to the Lion and Honey Badger.

The three chased the baobab fruit to a very dry ledge of land. Bunga jumped after the fruit that dropped down the ledge. Kion and Alice followed after the Honey Badger, not noticing the cracks in the ledge. The ledge crumbled into pieces, and the Lion and the Wolf fell down and landed on each other. Kion was directly on top of Alice, while she had landed on her back. The two then noticed the position they were in as their eyes met. Blood red stared into Golden amber, and vise versa. They then blushed and looked away from each other with tiny smiles dawning their faces.

There was a single thought in both their minds though. One thought that made them both excited and nervous. 'Today's the day. Today, I'm finally going to tell Kion/Alice that I love him/her.' They thought to themselves. They both waited long enough. They couldn't wait any longer. To Alice, she couldn't wait anymore. Kion deserved to know that she had fallen in love with him. To Kion, he needed to know if Alice felt the same way he did. And even if she didn't, he would still be there for her. They then got off each other and nervously chuckled. "Sorry." They both simultaneously apologized.

Bunga then interrupted them, with his laughter. "That was fun." He chuckled to the two, referring to the game. "You guys okay?" The voice of Beshte asked them in concern. "Yeah. Thanks, Beshte." Kion said, appreciating the concern. "Just be careful on that ledge." Ono, Beshte, and Fuli then backed away from the ledge a little, not wanting to fall as well. "Hmm, yes. It is rather dry." Ono said, feeling the ledge with his talons. "Well, the dry season is on it's way." Fuli emphasized her point. "Pffft. One dry hillside is no reason to stop playing. Now where's that baobab fruit?" He said, looking around for the fruit.

He didn't notice Mtoto, a young Elephant calf, walked to Bunga with the baobab fruit in is trunk. "Right here." He said, and then ran away from the Honey Badger. "Come back here, Mtoto!" Bunga shouted, running after the Elephant calf. Everyone laughed as they watched Bunga chased after Mtoto for the baobab fruit. They all then ran after Bunga and Mtoto. As she ran, Alice glanced at Kion and let a tiny loving smile dawn on her face. Tiny red hearts made of her light magic rose above her head and popped continously. 'I don't know when I'll get to do it, but I will tell you how I feel.' She promised to herself. She then slowed down as they got closer to Bunga and Mtoto. "Mom? Do any of you see his mother?" Bunga asked them.

"Nope. And it's kinda hard to miss an Elephant." Fuli responded to the Honey Badger. "Ohhh. They're using infrasound." Ono informed them. "Infant sound? But Mtoto's not a baby." Bunga said. "Not infant sound. Infrasound. Some animals can talk using sounds lower than most of us can hear. It even let's them talk over long distances." Ono explained to them. "Wooah." Kion said, amazed. "No kidding." Fuli said, impressed. "That's wicked!" Alice exclaimed with an impressed smile. "It's just something Elephants do." Mtoto said, flapping his ears.

"Un-Bunga-lievable! You can hear stuff from all over the Pride Lands? Like what?" Bunga asked, amazed. "Let me take a listen." Mtoto told him. He then ran a few feet, then stopped and perked his ears up to listen in on all of the Pride Lands. "Sounds like...Ma Tembo. She's headed to Pride Rock." Mtoto told them. Ono flew into the air and caught sight of Ma Tembo heading to Pride Rock. "He's right!" He shouted down to the Lion Guard. "Pretty good, Mtoto." Kion praised. "Yeah yeah. What else?" Bunga asked the Elephant calf.
