That night the two couples went star watching
" Dad used to take us out all the time and we will star watch" Analise said
" It was our special time, just being normal, a time where we didn't have to be royalty" Kiara said, " Look there's a baby rabbit, see the fluffy tail?"
" That one looks like a baby bird" Analise said
" I don't see it" Quinn said straining to see it
" Look harder, use your imagination" Analise said
Quinn looked and finally saw it, " aw that's cute"
" look look look, that one there looks like two lions fighting for a scrap of meat" Kovu said
The two girls looked at him and he was embarrassed
" I never done this before" Kovu said
Quinn looked and saw one
" That one looks like a dog" Quinn said
" What's a dog" Kiara and Kovu asked
" uh... Analise what kind of animals are here that would relate to a dog?" Quinn asked
" A dog is like... a hyena, only dogs don't have crazy laughs and are nice" Analise said, " Well most of them"
" And there's one that looks like a cat" Quinn said
" Stop saying house pets" Analise said
" Sorry" Quinn said
" What's a cat" Kiara and Kovu asked
" A small lion, and the males don't have manes" Analise said
" Can I say monkey?" Quinn asked
" Yes, you can say monkey" Analise said, " because I see it too"
" Where" Kovu asked
Analise pointed
" I see it" Kiara said
" Oh there it is" Kovu said finally seeing it
" There's Timon and Pumba" Analise said
" You have got to be kidding, he did it again" Kiara complained
" No I mean in the sky, right there" Analise said
" Oh, sorry, I thought you meant" Kiara began
" Yah, I liked your reaction though, it was funny" Analise teased
The couples did this for a while longer and then the girls began nuzzling their " boyfriends"
" I don't want to do what I was paid to do, lions are civilized" Quinn thought, " I have to tell her what I was paid to do, she's not going to like it, but I have to"
At the same time the guys cleared their throats about to say something and they both said, " I need to speak to you alone"
The girls looked at each other then at their men and nodded and the couples separated a bit
" Analise, When I came here I was hired to... Oh I can't tell you, it will shock you, I... I got to go" Quinn said
" Quinn wait" Analise began
Quinn stopped and turned around to face Analise but then started walking again and met up with Kovu who was doing the same thing. All of a sudden Rafiki showed up
" And where are you going?" Rafiki asked the two
" Uh... nowhere" the guys said
" That's what you think" Rafiki said happily
" Ok who's that" Quinn asked
" A friend of the family" Kiara said embarrassed
" That's Rafiki" Analise said
" You four need to follow old Rafiki, he know the way" Rafiki said happily again
" Where are we going" Kovu asked
" come on" Kiara said laughing
" we're following a monkey" Quinn said
" no we're not, we're following a baboon" Analise said laughing
" Where's he taking us" Kovu asked
" To a special place, called... Upendi" Rafiki said as he pushed the lions muzzles together into a heart shape and made it so the two humans kissed
" He's going to start to sing" Analise said happily
" We sing a lot here" Kiara said
Rafiki started singing, " There's a place where the crazy moon. Makes the monkeys sing and the baboons swoon. And the sultry scent of the lotus bloom. Will carry you away.
Where the hippos swing from the jungle vines. And the rhino rhumba in a conga line. And the pink flamingoes are intertwined.
As the stars come out to play.
In Upendi... Where the passionfruit grows sweet. And it's so divine. That you lose your mind. As it sweeps you off your feet.
In Upendi... Without a worry or a care. It just takes two. To make it true. Your heart will lead you there.
" Where is it?" The girls asked
" No place you don't take with you" Rafiki said then started singing, " You better watch your step 'cause the path is steep.
Better hold your breath cause the water's deep. It's a long way down over Lovers' Leap. But falling's half the fun!
In Upendi...Where the passionfruit grows sweet. And it's so divine. That you lose your mind. As it sweeps you off your feet.
In Upendi... Without a worry or a care. It just takes two. To make it true. Your heart will take you there.
You can beat the bush like there's no tomorrow. From Tanganyika to Kilimanjaro. But you'll find Upendi wherever you are
Oh underneath the sun.
" Upendi means "love", doesn't it?" The girls asked
"Welcome to Upendi!" Rafiki cheered then sang, " In Upendi... Where the passionfruit grows sweet. And it's so divine. That you lose your mind. As it sweeps you off your feet.
In Upendi... Without a worry or a care. It just takes two. To make it true. Your heart will take you there."
The two couples kissed and hugged and nuzzled
I think that's a good ending for the chapter, aw... young love
