Chapter Six: Information
Shenzi sigh in frustration after what Banzai told her about Todei and joining up in the fighting games. Sure the usual thing she does when he and/or Ed did something stupid was to hit then on the head and yell at them.
"Shenzi are you mad at me?" Banzai asked nervously
The news he told her nearly cause her to hit the roof and she needed a few minutes to calm herself down.
"Shenzi?"
Shenzi took a deep breath "Ed going to hate you when he finds out about this" she said calmly
"I know but-"
"I told you not to trust this guy but do you listen NO!" Shenzi shouted causing him to flinch "you knew Ed liked Secret, he liked her ever since he moved here. Yet you're going help a friend, who black mailed you, to get her to like him instead of helping your best friend you know your whole life."
Banzai lowered his head in shame "and I still can figure out what he blackmailed you with for you to agree with him" Shenzi asked "and you won't tell me either"
( It the least thing you can do since you don't want Shenzi to find out about this bet you did on her) Banzai remembered Todei saying to him "just trust me, I can't tell you that"
Shenzi gave him a sold stare "you're hiding something from me or else you would have told by now"
"I promise on our friendship not to worry about this" Banzai said smiling
Shenzi rolled her eyes, knowing she not going to win "fine"
"So can you help me out with this thing, cause I did told Ed that I will help him out as well to get Secret's attention"
"Oh no, I helped you out countless times but when it come to betraying our Ed behind his back, you're on your own"
"I'm not betraying him"
"You're helping your other friend to get his crush, that sounds like betraying to me"
They someone knocking on the skull the we're in "What!" Shenzi shouted
"It me Shenzen and I was wondering if you stopped yelling at Banzai yet so we can practice" he asked
"I'll be out there in a minute" Shenzi said
"You're really not going to help me with this" Banzai asked again
"Nope, I would've say I will think about but then you also told me you're going to endanger your life and Ed in this stupid fighting games." she said walking out of the skull with Banzai following.
"Go come on Shenzi, you really in I'm going to endanger my life in these so called games" Banzai asked
"Banzai do you know how there games work?" Shenzi asked looking back at him at they enter the pride lands. Banzai stared at her for a second and told her he didn't.
She sigh "I hate to say this but there one way to find out"
Banzai lower his head "crap"
"So let me get this straight, Banzai joined up in Zacuru's games and doesn't even know what he got himself in to" Info said trying to hold back her laugher.
"Another classic moment for Banzai" Gossip said "and how many does that make Secret"
"I lost count at forty something" Secret said
"And you just tell all he needs to know so we can get out of here, my brother and the others are waiting" Shenzi said
"We would love to help but you know the rules, we'll talk for food" Gossip said
"Plus you going to have to wait in line" Info said
"What do you mean in line" Banzai asked
"You wouldn't believe how many male in this clan would cheat in their battles" Gossip said
"They always come to us even after insulting us for years so get some information about their opponent" Info said "I give them their opponent's status"
"What do you mean by status" Shenzi asked
"His speed, strength, agility and if he fight fair or not"
"I tell them his fighting technique they use" Gossip said
"And I tell them any secret moves they might have" Secret smiled
"Of course they have to give us food" Info said
"Speak of a customer, here one now" Gossip said
"Hey what about us" Shenzi asked
"We'll talk for food" Info said
Shenzi sigh angrily "we'll be back in ten minutes"
"Ok, bring us back a zebra" Info said
"The tender parts" Gossip said
"Please" Secret said
"Man and I thought you were picking" Banzai said
"Don't start with me Banzai" Shenzi said
Twenty minutes later...
Shenzi and Banzai came back to the "The Slackers" spot with a piece of meat in their's mouths. They waited patiently as they were talking to another customer.
"Isn't that Airen" Banzai asked after placing the food down next to him.
"He was always a cheater" Shenzi said
"I wouldn't waste your time or life trying to get Prya attention" Gossip said
"Why not" he asked
"Not to break your heart or anything Airen but she already chosen a mate who happened to be the opponent you wanted to fight" Gossip said
"Oh" the male said then lower his eyes to the ground to hide the hurt.
Secret frowned but put on a smile "but I know that Zara had feelings for you why not give her a chance"
The male lifted his head "really she likes me" and she nodded
The male smiled in disbelief "thank you, here you go" he handed them a piece of meat "thanks a lot"
"Come again" Secret said
"Such a pest, she had to bring up his spirit like that" Gossip growled
"Shut up Gossip, she can't help it" Info said "next!"
Shenzi throw the piece of meat on the ground next to the three females who gave her a weird look.
"Right, right, Banzai need to learn the rules of the game" Info said
"These kinda games are for more high level males you know" Gossip said
"I'm a high level male" Banzai shouted
The four females looked at him awkwardly for a few seconds
"Damn, even when you guys shut up you're still insulting me"
"Please Banzai, these fight are some push over like you normally play" Info said
"Oh there gonna be cuts, bruises, slashes, broken bones and blood, lots and lots and lots and lots-
"Shut up Gossip!" Info snapped
"Yeah you're making me sick" Secret said
"And they won't stop attacking till you can't move an inch" Info said holding back her snicking "but the rules are simple, a male just challenge another, they fight, one of them lose and one of them win then it just go on to the next challenge. See its that simple"
"Don't back out on the challenge either because it only tell the clan that you're weak and a sissy" Gossip said
"some won't fight fair either but that allow and when both of you are knocked out you both lose" Secret said
"See that why you shouldn't put Ed and your life endanger like that" Shenzi said
"Don't taught him out of it Shenzi, ever since they and that other stupid idiot who can't get our names right joined in, a lot of hyenas are placing bets" Info said
"Yeah BETS, you should know about those huh BANZAI" Gossip said glaring at him.
"I think it pretty stupid to bet especially on precious things huh BANZAI!" Secret said giving him a "how could you" stare.
Banzai flinched from their's words but Shenzi was confuse about what they were talking about.
"Will you two stop interrupting me when I'm talking!" Info said
"Sorry" they said
"What kinda bets" Shenzi asked
"They think your friends are going to lose which is true because we never see them fight other males just you and you always win so that why everybody placing bets" Info said
"True but who knows maybe they stood chance" Shenzi said
"Well will see in a week and find out" Gossip said
"Ok then we'll see you then, let go Banzai" Shenzi said walking off
Banzai nodded then saw the three staring at him with a evil looking grin expect for Secret who gave him an ugly stare.
"She doesn't know about the bet yet" Info said
"But don't worry we won't tell" Gossip said (not yet at least)
"But shame on you" Secret said
"Shut your mouths and keep them shut" Banzai said running off
"Ooh how scary" Info said
"I can't believe he actually join" Gossip said
"All according to Zacuru's plan" Info said
"But only doing this so he can beat Banzai to a pulp and humiliate him doesn't sound like a good plan" Secret said frowning
"Secret there more to his plan then what he telling us" Info said
"And you know but won't tell me why?" she asked
Info and Gossip smirked at the youngest one of their group "you have to wait and see"
"Your actually going to let me and Ed fight in the games" Banzai asked
Shenzi sigh "should why not, it a good punishment for betraying Ed"
"Will you stop saying that" Banzai said
Shenzi stopped when she spotted her brother, Ed and Todei practicing with a few matches. Shenzen saw them and walked over to her. "It about time you guys came what took you so long" he asked
"Oh, just blowing off some steam" Shenzi smiled "what are you doing"
"Practicing and I learn that Ed is still using his drool as a attack move" Shenzen said trying to get a thick sticky loogie out of his hair.
"Hey who said these games are going to be fair" Shenzi said "right Banzai"
"Right" Banzai said
"And Todei doens't know how to defend himself" Shenzen added
"Well this is a good way to teach him that since I'm teaching you a few moves as well" Shenzi said
"Shenzon show me that block move again" Todei shouted
Shenzen growled "I will if you get my name right" walking over to him.
"It funny" Shenzi said
"What is" Banzai asked
"That Ed and Todei have a lot in common, stupid, annoying, having a crush on the same female"
"You're not going to let this down are you" he asked
"Till you tell Ed the truth, no I'm not but I will help you toughen up a bit" Shenzi said
"Thanks" he said
"I guess I shouldn't worry since some of these males are weaklings" Shenzi said
"That true so can we get started" Banzai said
"Sure" Shenzi said walking over to where her brother and the other were with Banzai following "and I know that even you aren't dumb enough to challenge some of the stronger males like Zacuru to a match"
Banzai froze...
