*7:30Am*
For the first time; Jessica woke up earlier than anyone. When she woke up, she noticed that they were higher up than last time. Her eyes opened wide, they were higher up than before. She yelled, "Everyone wake up now!" They all groaned. Sammi sighed, "Why did you wake us up this early?" The she looked down and gasped. Jessica asked, "Nikki where exactly did you let us sleep?" He answered, "I always see this red metal bar on the ground, by the construction site. So, I thought it would be best if we slept on it. I mean no one was ever gonna- Whoa, look how high we are!" Jessica smacked her forehead. Vitani asked, "How are we gonna get done?" Jessica shrugged. Jessica's heart was in her throat. She looked at the narrow pathway; right beside it was a chute. She announced, "Okay I'm going to walk along this pathway. I'm gonna go down that chute, I'll yell up when I get down." Everyone nodded in agreement. Jessica cautiously walked along the narrow strip. She had a really hard time, because she's still not used to walking on all fours. But, she successfully made it to the chute. She jumped down and when she almost down she came to an abrupt halt. There was cement at the bottom. Nikki yelled, "Is it safe to come down?" Jessica replied, "Yeah it is, just not all at once!" Kovu asked, "What did she say?" Nala answered, "I think she said: all at once." Then they all jumped down into the chute. Jessica ended up falling into the cement. When she emerged from the cement; they tried to hold in their laughter. She gave them a murderous look. A construction worker saw her and mistook her as a dog. He consoled, "Oh, it's gonna be alright. Here let me wash that cement off of you." He grabbed a hose and washed her off. When she was done getting hosed down, he yelled, "Holy shit! It's a lion someone call animal control!" Jessica sighed, "That was nice for about 10 seconds. We gotta get out of here!" They all jumped out avoiding the cement. It seemed like immediately animal control was there. Jessica had no idea where to go. So, she just ran in any direction. Simba asked, "Where are we going?" Jessica shrugged. Simba growled, "You don't know where we're going." Jessica stopped and shouted, "You know you didn't have to come in the first place!" Simba rolled his eyes. He started walking away from her. Jessica stopped him and shot him a glare. He hissed, "We came to help you." Jessica argued, "I didn't ask for your help." Simba was about to roar, until he let out a grunt. Jessica jumped back and shuddered, "You don't have to get that mad Simba." He started staggering. He looked at Jessica and said, "You know you're pretty sexy." Their jaws just dropped. Nala cleared her throat and asked, "Simba, are you okay?" Simba started purring and rubbing against Jessica. She shouted, "I'm scared!" She felt really uncomfortable. They loaded the gun and shot Jessica. Jessica yelped when she got shot. Then she started feeling a little dizzy too. She said, "Wow! You're pretty cute yourself." They all stared with confusion. Nikki explained, "They got shot with a tranquilizer. It's like weed for animals. I bet it feels awesome." The others got shot. Jessica got a little bit drowsy and fell down.
Everything went black.
*Bronx Zoo*
Jessica woke up and groaned. She thought she was back at Africa. Then after a while she saw a strong tiger. She walked up to him groggily and asked, "Excuse me but where are we?" Tiger growled, "Get away from me you stupid commoner!" Jessica looked at him strangely. Jessica questioned, "Commoner?" a zebra sighed, "Just ignore Damian, honey. The name's Moxie. What's yours?" Jessica trotted over to her and answered, "Jessica. Why are we separated?" Moxie laughed, "Don't you know where you are?" Jessica shook her head. Moxie answered, "You in the Bronx Zoo. Also you're a lion, you eat guys like us." Jessica's jaw dropped. She groaned, "I don't want to be in a zoo. I want to be in San Francisco." Moxie chuckled, "I know how you feel, honey. I heard it's like heaven there." Jessica knew what she was talking, but she didn't care. The others woke up and looked around. Sammi asked, "Jessica, where are we?" Jessica answered, "We're in a zoo. A zoo is a place where animals get watched; just for entertainment." Moxie asked, "Who are they?" Jessica answered, "That's Simba, Nala, Vitani, Kovu, and my little sister Sammi." Moxie said, "Hi my name's Moxie." They nodded their heads. All of the sudden a bell rang. Sammi cocked her head. She asked, "What does that mean?" An African wild dog answered, "That means the zoo is open." A whole bunch of people where piling in to see the lions. They were taking pictures of them. Simba walked forward only to be intercepted by Damian. Damian roared at the audience. They clapped and cheered. Simba whispered to them, "That's the best he can do?" Nala stopped him. She whispered, "Don't you think it'll be bad if you upstage him?" He rolled his eyes and walked past her. He smirked at Damian and roared. Everyone got quiet for a few seconds. Then they started cheering for Simba. The wild dog laughed, "Wow! Look like you got dethroned, my royal pain." Damian roared, "Shut up, Agrona!" She got quiet fast. She asked, "Are you jealous of him?" Damian answered, "I'm not that jealous of him. I can understand when one can be jealous." Simba came up to him and apologized, "Sorry for stealing your performance. I hope you don't feel upstaged." Damian flashed a fake sincere smile. He laughed, "Why would I feel upstaged?" Agrona asked, "But, didn't you just say…" Damian glared at her. Simba just shot him a suspicious stare and walked away. When he walked away; Damian growled at him.
*6:50 Pm*
The zoo was closing. Jessica was glad that the people left. She had a really bad headache. She groaned, "O my god Moxie, I'm so glad everyone's gone." Moxie agreed, "I know how you feel. I hate it every time those little kids come by. They always ask: Mama, what's wrong with the horse? I'll tell you what's wrong; this 'horse' can't stand you kids." Sammi looked at her and said, "What?" Moxie corrected, "Oh not you, you're alright Sammi." Moxie whispered to Jessica, "Your sister is really cute." Jessica rolled her eyes. She was just glad that she has someone to talk to. Damian was pacing back and forth. He seemed really anxious. Agrona asked, "You alright?" Damian just looked at him. She sighed, "I guess that was a stupid question. I wonder why that girl Jessica, want to get to San Francisco so bad." Damian's eyes widened. He asked, "What did you say?" Agrona repeated, "I asked, if you're alright and you shot me a glare." He smacked her head and yelled, "Before all that!" Agrona realized, "Oh! I was wondering why Jessica wants to go to San Francisco." Damian hissed, "That's it! All I have to do is get Jessica out of here!" Agrona disagreed, "How are you gonna do that? This place is heavily guarded. Just because when you were little you got out of your pen; then your mother came after you." Damian looked down and whispered, "God bless her soul." Agrona also looked down and whimpered. Damian walked over to Jessica and tapped her. Jessica rolled her eyes. She asked, "What do you want?" He leered, "I heard that you want to get out of here. Well I can help you." Her head lifted really fast and she looked at him with interest. He continued, "You see that little door in the corner. In the morning they give out breakfast there." She questioned, "So?" HE groaned, "So, I can get the door stuck and you can slip your way through. What do you say?" Jessica walked away to think. Moxie ranted, "What're you doing? She's just a teenager. How would you feel if you got manipulated?" He laughed, "I'm not the one who gets manipulated. I'm the manipulator." Moxie rolled her eyes and asked, "What if the animal control catches them?" He vexed, "I don't care if they get stuffed. I just want them gone." Jessica came back over. She accepted, "Alright I'll do it! I gotta tell the others." Damian stepped on her tail. She yelped. He whispered, "Let's just keep this between us. You know a little surprise…thing." Jessica thought for a bit and said, "No problem." He smirked, "There's a good girl. Now go on and get a good night sleep and remember. It's our little secret." Jessica lay down and went to sleep. Damian had an evil smile on his face. He whispered to Moxie coldly, "I'm the manipulator." Moxie sighed in disappointment. She sighed, "I know he'll change his mind. At least I hope." With that she fell asleep.
This one may seem rushed. I really didn't want to make this one long. Anyway Jessica may get caught in little Simba situation. So i hope you can guess who Damian is supposed to be. If i don't get at least 3 different reviewers, i'm not updating. I hope you enjoyed reading. Please Review!
