Chapter 8

The lionesses along with Venus and Zooney who were walking towards the Elephant Graveyard in hope of finding Steve and Zazu!
"So Venus Why didn't the professor join us for this little hunt" saidVitani.
"I tried to make him come but he just refuesed and said something about finishing repairs. You know sometimes I really think that he is just not with us he allways has his head in the clouds except for when he is working"! The lionesses agreed with Venus "Now isn't that just like a man" said Nala and Vitani giggled. Venus sighed "Gee I sure hope Steve is ok and Zazu to" she said. Vitani comforted her "Don't loose hope girl we'll find them I know we will". The rescue group made they're way closer and closer to the Graveyard it would only be a matter of time before they fell into the hyena's trap!

Inside the cave Steve and zazu were perishing from the heat and gas from the geysters "Gee what is this stuff" said Steve sleepily "Its geyster gas" said Zazu yawning. "The gas contains Carbon Dioxide". "But thats deadly to us" said steve alarmed! Zazu continued "Each puff of gas contains a small bit of Carbon Dioxide thats why the hyenas trapped us in here to keep us sober and if we are in here long enough we will die since on both our planets we breath Oxygen"!
"You're right" agreed Steve. "That explains what knocked me off my Jet Mobile I must have landed on a geyster by accident. Boy what a fool I am". Suddenly an idea flashed into Steves head.
"Hey Zazu I have an idea" Steve said to the Hornbill "Well about time what is it" grumbled the bird. The way I see it is this these geysters pack a mighty punch right" "Right" repeated Zazu in a hurried way. "Well if I make one explode big enough I think I'll be able to knock out the Hyena's gaurding us outside"! Steve looked at Zazu for his opinion "Steve thats a brilliant idea" "Thanks Zazu now to put it into action". "But may I just point out one tiny problem" asked Zazu.
"Why certainly" said Steve. "How are you going to explode the geyster". Zazu crossed his wings waiting for an explanation. "Simple I'll use the capsules for my ray gun I may not have the gun but I have the ray capsuals and once they are taken out of a compartment where they are stored they become highly explosive"! "Its a brilliant plan Steve but be careful" "In our case we have nothing to loose. Now stand back this is going to get explosive" said Steve as he took a capsual out of the small box where it was stored and got ready to throw it at one of the geysters...

The lionesses, Venus and Zooney were now all entering the Graveyard being watched by the hyenas. "It won't be long now" snickerd Shenzi "What do you think of my work of genius Banzai it is fool proof nothing can go wrong" Shenzi asked her male companion.
"Err it's brilliant Shenzi but err suposing Something were to go wrong"? Shenzi smacked the low intelligent hyena around the head. "You blithering idiot, you cowardly bad excuse for a hyena" she yelled smacking him continually over the head with her paw. "Ok,Ok I was just asking" Banzai said rubbing his saw head when Shenzi finally stopped. "My plan is indestructable Banzai nothing will go wrong I tell you NOTHING" she shouted glowering at Banzai her eyes full of anger and hate!
"I have worked on this plan for years..." "Err Shenzi" interupted Banzai but Shenzi smacked him over the head again! "Don't you interupt me" she growled bitterly. "But Shenzi I..." "There you go again you overweight, half boiled son of a.." "But Shenzi the Lionesses and two strange creatures are right in front of us looking at us". Shenzi turned around slowly to see the lionesses Venus and Zooney about about six feet away from where they were standing ready to fight them.
There was silence followed by some crickets chirping in the background. The silence was broken by Nala saying "Hello Shenzi" "H'H'H'Hi" Stammerd Shenzi nervously "Excuse me for a moment" she said as she turned backed to Banzai and grabbed him viciously and brought him closer to her angry face. "Why didn't you tell me" she growled "But I just..." but Shenzi cut Banzai off "No use making excuses now you fool we'll just have to kill off the lionesses then take out the males back at Pride Rock". Shenzi then dropped Banzai and turned back to Nala grinning "Hey there Nala long time no see eh". "That's right we thought you had perished in the fire at Pride Rock with Scar".
"Ha I was mearly warming up for round two" snarled shenzi. "But enough chit-chat lets fight" the hyena declared. "You're on" said Nala. "ATTACK" yelled Shenzi as the hyenas ran towards the Lionesses. Nala then turned to Venus "you two had betta find Steve we'll tackel these obsticals"! "Thanks Nala and good luck" said Venus as she and Zooney ran off to find Steve! "Good luck" said Nala as she turned back to the lionesses and orderd them to attack the aproaching hyenas!

Suddenly there was an explosion from a nearby cave and everyone stopped and looked as Steve and Zazu emerged from the cave and stepped over the two hyenas who had been told to guared them who now layed knocked out on the floor! "It worked" said Steve as he and Zazu ran towards Venus and Zooney. "Steve are you ok" she said as she ran over to her freind and hugged him. "Yes Venus but just barely". "Welcome home" said Zooney trying as best he could to greet Steve.Nala had also joined them and was greeting Zazu. "Zazu are you ok" she asked "Does it look like I'm ok.. I am fine" he said as he spun about with joy in the air."Well I sm sorry to break up this little reunion" said shenzi "But we have a fight to finish". "That's ok Shenzi bring it on" said Nala who then turned to Venus, Steve, Zooney and Zazu "You don't have to stay if you want to". "There is no way I'm going to let those hyenas reach Pride Rock so I'm gonna stay here with you and fight" said Steve. "Me to" said Venus "Welcome home" agreed Zooney. "I think I'll go to Pride Rock and warn Simba" said Zazu "Of course" said Nala "That's a good idea" So Zazu flew off towards Pride Rock.
"Well what are you waiting for" said Shenzi "lets fight" she orderd. "Glad to" said nala as the fight began!
