Instantly, the male lions turned their heads toward the sound, emitting from a nearby bush. Mufasa crept forward a step. 'What was that?' he asked, rather cautiously.

'How are we meant to know?' Zei asked, annoyed, 'Point is, it isn't something that makes us sit here bored now, is it?' Determined, he glanced expectantly around the other lions.

Sarabi, behind the bush, began to agilely creep in another direction, so she wasn't spotted by them. She tried not to make any marks of her trail, though had put some deep claw marks in the ground behind the bush. All part of her plan. She was far in the distance, as Mufasa and his friends crept forward to peer at the marks she had left. Sarabi grinned triumphantly. She had left a bit of a trail behind her, once she was in line of where she wanted to go.

The plan was a little complicated to explain... Or it's just that I'm lacking creativity, and words to describe it, but Sarabi knew that if she did this right, then it would be a brilliant plan, and she would get to laugh in their faces, like she had always dreamed to.

'What the–?' Zei asked, raising an eyebrow, and looking at the marks, 'What are these? What growled? What's going on here, anyway?' Two lions layed back, one leaning against the tree, enjoying the shade, the other having a vicious battle with a tree.

Mufasa frowned at the antics. 'Fine then, staa-aay' he hissed, 'We'll go find whatever this is, right?' His sight moved over to Zei, who gave a nod, and began to move forward. When he had moved four feet, he lifted a paw, to point around half a metre in front of him.

'Someone's leaving clues to their whereabouts' he stated, matter-of-factly. Mufasa darted forward. The mark in the ground didn't look like an accident. He shrugged, a grin spreading over his face. 'Brilliant. Then I vote we follow these tracks!'

And, of course, with that they did. And on their way, they found something to lift their spirits, and make them want to find what this was even more. The word 'Treasure'. And that was when greed took over.

And where did these tracks lead them? Near a river, flowing through the plains. 'Where now?' Zei asked, 'Do you see the next mark?' Mufasa shook his head in an answer.

Sarabi watched nearby, her plan an obvious success. She knew whatever boredom had happened when they were searching faded with the word 'Treasure'. The plan was brilliant. And catching them on a day they were bored was even better, or it might not of worked. Now, it was her turn to strike.

Sarabi ran forward, colliding with the two, to send them sprawling into the water, coughing and spluttering. And when they finally rid their eyes of water, the proud figure of Sarabi was what they saw, giving them a triumphant grin, and laughing heartily.

'I believe I got you!' she said, grinning, 'So, don't mess with me!'

Zei was not grinning. He instantly stood up, climbing from the river. He shoved Sarabi aside with his shoulder, and muttered 'I blame this on you, Mufasa. Bet you knew all along.'

Sarabi's nose scrunched. 'What's his problem?' she asked, raising an eyebrow. Of course, her grin didn't really fade that much. And with that, she walked away, her tail flicking, leaving Mufasa sitting in the water.

A/N: Yes, I know it's a short chapter, sorry! I just thought I'd better get her plan over and done with. So, hopefully I'll post again. I know you 'TLK' fans don't really care too much about my Harry Potter stories, so, I won't say that I'm giving up on two of them, and only leaving two stories to work on. (This being one of them). I might add to them once in a while, but one of them could be done if I wanted it to, so it doesn't really matter. -Shrug- Well, I'll see if this earns anything else, or if 8 reviews is all I'm doomed to.
