Okay this is the actual first chapter. By the way did you guys remeber or check out that show? Please review and tell me.
He actually wasn't as big of a jerk as everyone thought. In fact Shere Khan could be one of the friendliest cats in the jungle if you knew him well enough, like Bagheera. When they had first met Khan had been sort of a bully, but after a while Bagheera had grown on him. He really couldn't help it considering Bagheera was always following him. Now the two were hardly seen without each other.
Bagheera had suggested that they go spend the next few days at the beach, it had taken them a days travel to get there but it had definitely been worth it. "Bagheera I've got to say this has got to be the best idea you've ever had", Shere Khan told his friend. "Thanks Shere Khan, I had a feeling you'd like it", he replied.
They were now resting in the shade of some trees near the beach after a long day of playing. The wind began to pick up and Bagheera opened his eyes to see what was happening. The wind had caused the waves to get larger and also brought dark clouds. Lightning shot through the air making Bagheera jump. "You a little afraid of lightning Bagheera?" Khan asked. "N-No it's just that the monsoons are coming soon and...okay so what if I am scared? But I'm serious about the monsoons, they usually start around this time and we're on a beach", told him a little worried. "We'll be fine Bagheera", Khan replied.
If he only knew how wrong he really was.
"Simba what are we gonna do", Nala asked her friend with a bored tone. "I don't know", he replied, "There isn't anything to do. Zazu's out with dad so we can't pounce on him, all the other cubs are sleeping, and it's just too hot to play." Nala looked at him frowning but unfortunately he was right. The Pride Lands, as big and beautiful as they were, could get really boring really fast. "Maybe we could just go exploring, see if we find something cool", Simba suggested. "We did that already remember? Hyenas, elephants grave yard, the birdie boiler, you're dad saving us. That was yesterday, maybe we should just lay low for a couple of days", Nala replied teasing him a little. "Oh yeah, how could I forget", Simba grumbled. But he obliged and they both settled for relaxing the next few days.
Bagheera had been right the monsoons were coming and they were getting there in a hurry. He and Shere Khan had moved from the beach to the water. Not on their own will, but by the storm. They had tried huddling up against a tree to keep from being blown away by the wind. It wasn't a bad idea until the tree gave way sending the cubs flying into the ocean. They had been scared for a while until they found a piece of debris floating in the water.
"You okay Bagheera?" Shere Khan asked clinging to a piece of debris. "Yeah I'll be fine just a few bumps is all", Bagheera replied, "How long do you think the monsoon will last?" "I don't know, hopefully not too long. If it doesn't stop we might see our friends again", he gulped. Bagheera thought about what his friend had just said, he was right. The images of their friends flooded as mind as tears started to flood his eyes. "Don't cry Bagheera I'm sure we'll be alright", he tried comforting his friend even though he could hardly keep himself from crying.
They continued to drift for days until they hit land exhausted. They could only manage a few steps before falling down unconscious onto the sand. They laid there till the next morning when Bagheera was splash with water. "Huh? What is it? Who's there?" he question looking around frantically. "Good morning sleeping beauty", Khan replied looking down at him. "Aww Khan just let me sleep", Bagheera whined. "I would but we have got to find out where we are. Then we have to pick somewhere to live", Shere Khan told him. Bagheera got up and nodded. They began to walk from the beach through the jungle till they came to a desert.
"We should probably stay here for the night. I don't think we'll make it across that wasteland", Bagheera said looking at Khan. "Yeah you're probably right", Shere Khan replied. They searched for a place to sleep and came across a cave. They went inside checking to make sure they weren't entering someone else's home. After searching it they both lied down to sleep.
Bagheera was on the verge of sleep until he heard something over his shoulder. Crying. He turned around to see Shere Khan curled in a ball shuttering as tears came down his face. This was something that Bagheera had never seen. Shere Khan was usually confident and strong, usually when he was sad he was just quiet and shy. But this was a totally different level of sadness, Bagheera knew why he was sad too. Shere Khan missed their home just like he did. Bagheera padded over to his friend and embrace him in a strong friendly hug. "I miss home Bagheera", Khan cried into his friends shoulder. "I know I miss it too", Bagheera cried right back.
The two friends cried their eyes out that night and ended up falling asleep holding onto each other to scared to let go. They feared that if they did they might lose each other next.
