Chapter 7: Jungle Life
After walking around the jungles; Amy, Simba, Timon, and Pumba stopped for a break. Amy's stomach began to growl for hunger.
"You hungry Amy?" Simba asked
"Yeah, I'm so hungry I can eat something that is big" Amy responded
"We don't have anything that is big but we have something better" Timon said
"What is it?" Amy asked
"Follow us" Pumba said as he, the lion, and meerkat lead Amy to a tree log. Simba moves the tree log with his paws while Timon and Pumba grab insects from under the log and brings them to Amy.
"Ew what is that?" Amy asked in disgust.
"A grub what does it look like" Timon answered.
"Eww gross" Amy responded as she looked away in disgust.
"Mmm taste like chicken" Timon replied after eating an insect
"Slimy yet satisfying" Pumba replied after eating a worm.
Amy looks at the male animals in disgust. Simba comes up to her.
"Hey come on Amy, try it, I said the same thing when I first ate bugs but it turned out quite tasty" Simba said. Amy looks at him then signs in defeat, she hasn't eaten anything for a while.
"Well Amy" Timon said holding a leaf plate full of bugs.
Amy picks up a red worm from the plate and looks at it with an unsure look.
"Oh well Hakuna Matata" Amy said as she slowly ate the insect and swallowed it. After eating it, she fined it quite tasty.
"Hmmm Slimy yet Satisfying" Amy responded in delight.
"See I told you" Simba said. The four animals ate some insects then continued to walk around the jungle.
"I got to admit that was really yummy" Amy said
"Well, this is the life of our home and motto Hakuna Matata" Timon said.
Amy then stops for a momement and thinks about what else there is to do in the jungle for fun. Simba, Timon, and Pumba saw her stop and stopped as well.
"What's wrong Amy?" Pumba asked
"Nothing it just, what do you guys do around here for fun" Amy asked.
"Well there's plenty to do, come on we'll show ya" Simba said
"You two go have fun, me and Pumba are going to take a midday nap" Timon yawned a little as he jumps on pumba's back to ride on.
"Alright See ya" Simba and Amy said at the same time as the meerkat and warthog left Amy looks at Simba.
"So what do you do here for fun Simba?" Amy asked.
"I'll show you, follow me" Simba grinned as he led Amy to where they're going to have fun.
After a long walk, Simba led Amy to a waterfall, close to where the water ends that looks like a huge swimming pool lake.
"Wow" Amy said.
"What do you think?" Simba asked. Amy looks at him.
"It's the biggest lake I have ever seen in my life, I could really go for a swim, but I'm a non mobian lioness" Amy said sadly at the last part. Simba nudges her gently.
"Don't worry Amy, I can swim, plus I'll be there for you" Simba replied with a warm smile.
"Really okay" Amy said, she then dipped her front paw in the water and shivered from the cold temperature. Just as she was about to walk away, Simba came out of nowhere swinging on a vine with his mouth then let's go as he landed in the water with a huge splash.
"Ahhh" Amy cried as she got her fur soaked. Simba pops up and splashes her with his paws.
"Hey! Alright Mr. Lion prepare be splash!" Amy said playfully as she jumped in the water, splashing Simba.
"Hey!" Simba said. Amy laughed but Simba splashed her back. The two lions splash each other and had fun. After an hour of swimming Simba and Amy came out of the water.
"Whoo that was fun" Amy said as she shook the water off her fur. Simba shook his fur too but got amy a little wet. After he shook his fur, his mane and fur puffed up, making Amy giggled.
"What?" Simba asked
"Nothing it's just your fur is puffed up" Amy giggled
"Oh. Well do you want to do? Simba said after he shook his mane and fur to be straight.
"What else there is to do besides swimming?" Amy asked
"Plenty I'll show you" Simba said as he led her to do something else for fun. Ten minutes later, Simba and Amy were at a tree log bridge; there they came up to vine hammock like.
"What's that?" Amy asked
"These vines will launch you in the air if you jump on it, plus it's good to lay down and relax on it" Simba answered as he climbs up on the vines.
"Come on Amy it's fun" Simba motioned his paw to come.
Amy climbs up on the vines. After she's on them Simba then jumps up and down on the vines causing him and Amy to launch them to go up.
"Wah hooo!" Amy and Simba yelled.
The two lions jumped up and down on the vines having the fun of their life. One hour later, Simba and Amy stopped jumping on the vines. The two looked to see the sun setting and the sky becoming dark. Amy yawned.
"Are you tired Amy?" Simba asked.
"Yeah" Amy yawned
"Let's get back with Timon and Pumba" Simba said as he and the pink lioness left.
"Simba, thanks for showing me the jungle I had a lot of fun" Amy replied softly. Simba smiled warmly at her.
"No problem let's get back the guys so that we can rest" Simba said.
The two lions made their way to the jungle to find the Meer kat and Warthog.
