A Lions True Nature

Zira walked through the barren wasteland that was her home, looking for one particularly insane lioness. The sun was rising just over the horizon the morning hunt was about to begin.

Finally she found Bellatrix sitting on a termite hill, watching the sun rise.

Zira smiled, a dark glint glittered in her eyes. "Good morning Bellatrix."

Bellatrix jumped back in surprise. She let out a low growl when she saw Zira. "What do you want!" She growled.

Zira put on a kind smile. "Relax I just wanted to talk, there is no harm in that is there?"

Bella glared at her. "Whatever you are up too, I want no part of it you old hag."

Zira was tempted to just kill her then and there…but that would just ruin everything wouldn't it? "Come now Bellatrix I'm just trying to make amends. Is that so bad?"

Bellatrix still didn't relax.

Zira smiled. "It's the best for the pride if we get along…How about this you want to impress Voldemort don't you?"

Bellatrix nodded, a small light seem to come to her eyes.

"Good, me and my pride are going hunting. It is a simple hunt nothing to big, we would be more than glad if you came." Zira told her in the most friendly tone she could manage.

A huge smile appeared on Bellatrix's face. "Really?"

"Of course you have a lot of talent child, you just need to learn how to use it." Zira coed.

"Thanks Zira, this means a lot."

"No problem, see you in a little bit." With that Zira walked off, a victorious smirk plastered on her face.

Nuka who was watching from nearby, ran up to his Mother. "You, you sure about this Mother?" He stuttered. "He, he , he will know you killed her. Evidence or not…"

"Shush Nuka, I have everything under control." Zira hissed. "Whether Voldemort will admit it or not he needs us. He can't hunt, if you can't hunt you can't survive. As I said he needs us more than he realized."
