The Pridelands Route

Sarabi gave Tanglemane a grateful and tired smile. Every ounce of thankfulness she could possibly muster was in that sad smile, and she released a sigh sounding a little relieved at least. The old queen then turned her attention to Ni as he without question agreed. Though she knew a negotiation was not what he'd had in mind, expecting something a little more drastic.

However, neither of them had asked Sarabi what the plan was. Negotation, yes. But she was glad they hadn't.

No one really knew how drastic this negotiation really was.

"Good..." she said simply, in a soft and thankful tone. "Then unless there's further questions we're going to go address the matter." Sarabi decided finally.

Assuming there were in fact, no questions to be sounded, she'd roll her heavy shoulders once, before heading directly towards the outlands. Her amber eyes hit the horizon, staring absently at the direct mark between pridelands and outlands. For a moment she looked a little fearful, her jowls pulling down a little in a gentle and worried frown. But with a sharp inhale, the queen regained her composure, and carried on.

Mega stayed quiet throughout the whole scene as he listened to Sarabi talk. "Ma'am, do you want to come with you, or should I be the one to escort the hyena?" he asked, shifting a little in his cart. He shot a glance towards Tanglemane and the others, giving them a hopeful look.

While he hadn't asked exactly what Sarabi had in mind, he figured she would know something Scar might consider accepting in exchange for the captured lionesses. His primary concern was Ni. Kula's mate might not be the best choice to accompany them, but they didn't have much choice, otherwise. Mega was confined to a cart to get around, Tojo didn't seem like much of a warrior, and nobody had seen Babu for a while now. Not that Babu could be counted on to act rationally.

The old lion frowned a bit as Mega offered to accompany them. If things didn't go well, they would need to get out of the Outlands real quick. If he had to, Tanglemane wouldn't hesitate to fight to his last breath to let the others escape, but Mega's disability would be a hindrance in this instance. Not to mention having another potential hothead to watch out for. It hadn't escaped the old lion's notice how Mega felt about Sabini. He walked over to Mega and placed a paw on his shoulder.

"Stay with the hyena, Mega. If we don't come back, you must not let Afu sway Simba into leaving the lionesses to their fate. Without its hunters, the pride will suffer greatly," he said softly, his voice barely above a whisper.

Then he turned, and walked up beside Sarabi, eyes fixed on the horizon. The Outlands awaited.

Shujaa smiled, bowed his head and took one big sigh of relief. He had done it his plan had worked he was now a member of the heroes army course that didn't mean that he was completely in the clear. He still had many trails ahead of him like his battle with Scar's army which would not be pleasant but for now the hyena could celebrate his victory over a nice meal. Then lion called Tojo spoke he apparently had question for Shujaa, “alright, ask away.”

Tojo looked down at Shujaa." I well I might still go there but I need some inside information since you've been there I'm going to need as much as possible but before we get to any of those.. do you know or think you might know where they keep the prisoners..?" He asked." I'm not asking you to know right away I'm asking you if you might know." He said softly.

He looked up ahead." There should be food up ahead.. that you can eat before we get some real meat in you I mean." He said before sighing." Also I know you probably don't know anything about me but when I was little a group of hyena's chased me and my mother and she hid me in a giant crack in the gorge tell me do you know anything about that do they think I'm dead or-.." He stopped when he realized this hyena probably knew absolutely nothing about him." Never mind but okay how about they're strongest warriors or they're smartest the ones I should really watch out for..?" He asked.

It started out fairly calm but my mother started growing more frustrated with Scar’s arrogances and denial, it slowly got to her then she and she made one terrible mistake she munched Mufasa name. Scar then….” Shujaa paused “he killed her cold blood and then, you see I followed my mother some reason and Scar spotted me and well…” Shujaa rubbed the scars on his check “that’s how I got these; he would have killed me if Shenzi hadn’t called Scar over for something.” Shujaa finished, “um sorry it’s just I need get this all off my chest."
