Hi! Back again. Wow there were some bloopers in the last chappy, I just noticed I wrote excited the cave instead of exited ha ha. If I do anything so silly again feel free to mention it, as that was pretty obvious ha ha. Anyway this chapter will include a character owned by Narfgirl called Ban'ai, this character can be seen as a child (chick) in her story Memoirs of a Blue Bird, which I highly recommend. Narfgirl also co-wrote this chapter YAY.

After quite a squabble outside as about five birds were fighting over whom was next a small cuckoo pushed his way forward. He was green with a white stomach and a little bit of white above his eye that looked like eyebrows.

The little bird did not seem nervous at all in fact he seemed to hold quite an overly confident air about him as seen by they way he held himself up and flew straight into the cave rather than being guided.

"Welcome," greeted Simba before the questioning commenced.

"Greetings your highnesses," said the bird with a slight bow, "I am Ban'ai and have come for the position of Major Domo."

Ban'ai was quite old, possibly older than Zazu but he seemed to have a high energy level.

"So first of all, how are you at flying?" asked Nala who noticed the bird's age and was a little concerned.

"I'm great at flying, couldn't you tell by the way I gracefully entered the cave?" answered the bird, seeming to think that a ridicules question.

"Very good, so can you tell us please what interested you in this position?" inquired Simba.

"Well, I was actually a childhood friend of Zazu who I believe was your previous advisor and feel that if he did this for so many years, it must have been fulfilling work and I'm sure I could do a much better…I mean um…as good as job as he did."

"Oh you were a friend of Zazu's? I don't remember him ever mentioning being friendly with anyone outside his family as a chick," said Simba thinking it odd of Zazu to have never mentioned this friend as he use to tell Simba all about his younger days when babysitting him as a cub.

"Well, we were more than friends, I am actually his cousin," replied the bird puffing his chest out proudly.

"His cousin? Really?" thought Nala aloud as it seemed that it was very strange for a cuckoo to be related to a hornbill.

Ban'ai seemed to want to really push this idea of him being very friendly with Zazu and started rambling on about "the good old days".

"Yes, I can recall us having a lovely time together sitting around the old nest, sharing berries, even if he did tend to want more than his fair share…by the way how am I paid?"

"Paid?" repeated Simba.

"Yes paid," replied Ban'ai, "Berries would be a lovely form or payment or perhaps some lovely grubs twice or maybe three times a day."

"Umm, actually Zazu found the protection from all predators of the Pridelands by law and having a shelter over his head, in the form of this very cave to be more than enough, he also said the work was it's own reward as it kept him occupied and feeling important," explained Nala, "Not to mention that if you were even to get sick the shaman is a close personal friend of ours."

"Well, that's not very good now is it!" exclaimed the bird, stamping its foot.

"Well that's what we're offering," retorted Nala a tad louder than she had planned.

"Ok, ok then well, if the that's all your offering I suppose that the job must be pretty easy, what would I have to do?"

"Well one of the most important jobs it to inform us of the goings on in the Pridelands, which requires you to fly around in the early mornings and afternoons to give us two reports daily."

"Mornings! You expect me to do mornings! What time would I have to be up? I do need my sleep too you know, I would have considered to lousy payment if I didn't have to do mornings but I like to sleep in thank you very much. What a loser Zazu is for taking this crappy position, but I guess what else did he have going for him, as he would never be attractive enough to find a mate and start a family, he always lacked my sophistication and charm."

"How dare you talk about Zazu like that!" roared Simba approaching the bird in an intimidating almost stalking like manner, "and after reflecting on the stories Zazu has told me about the past I just remembered that he did mention you and how you picked on him and his siblings, stealing their food and ruining what was meant to be a special occasion!"

"Oh so he did talk about me?" squeaked Ban'ai in a very high-pitched, mouse like voice while walking backwards into the cave wall.

Simba looked down on the little bird that was now trapped between the wall and himself shaking like a bowel of jelly (not that lions eat jelly or know what it is). The King the lowered his face to Ban'ai "Shoo" he growled in a low voice, which as enough to cause the little cuckoo to let out a high pitched chirp and fly as fast as he could out of the cave, accidentally flying too high as hitting his head on the ceiling before finally exiting the cave.

"Well that was fun," said Kiara to her father receiving a "You've got to be kidding" look back.

"You should have eaten him," added Kovu, in a voice, which made the lion's wonder if he was joking or dead serious.

The next few birds interviewed included a bird who suffered from narcolepsy, which Kiara had to eventually carry out of the cave herself as he proved hard to awaken, and a sight impaired, senile old Goshawk who kept thinking Kovu's mane was some kind of small furry animal which he may like to eat. Kovu did not find this amusing, and that bird was lucky Nala told him to leave when she did.

Things were looking bad for the royals and they were beginning to wonder if there were indeed any sane birds in the whole Pridelands. The next applicant unfortunately proved this to be possibly true.

When Simba and Nala after a lot of consideration finally let the applicant into the cave he immediately started to talk about his abilities.

"I can talk to lots of animals, I like to talk, I'm really friendly you know, sometimes I'll talk to people who aren't even talking to me. I'll just go up and say hey 'You talking to me,' well you are now ha ha"

"Yes, we can see that, there's just one tiny weeny problem," said Nala slowly.

"And that would be?" asked the applicant.

"Your not a bird!"

"DISCRIMINATION!" yelled back the applicant who was clearly a fox, and most certainly not a bird.

"Fine then if you believe that you can do the job, explain to us how you are going to fly around the Pride Lands gathering news?"

"Nothing is impossible for me for I am Zorro, and I can so fly, here I'll show you!" argued the fox.

"Fine then," said Simba who was growing tired of the nutcases he was encountering. He didn't actually expect the fox to run out of the cave towards the edge of Pride Rock.

Concerned the royal couple and Kovu and Kiara ran out of the cave to see what the fox was doing.

Zorro ran through the remaining birds that were still waiting for an interview, scarring a few of them away.

"Well that should make our job easier," commented Simba watching half the birds flee in fright, as the fox followed by the four lions kept running to the edge.

Zorro stopped for a second on the very tip. Kiara let out a relieved sigh, as she did not wish to witness a suicidal event. But then just as she felt relieved the fox was heard saying.

"I'll just have to think of a happy thought……..got it, yippee!"

The fox then jumped of Pride Rock screaming, "I can save you Bintiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii!"

The lions closed their eyes as they heard a loud thud and opened them to see a small cloud of rising dust where the fox had landed. Kiara turned back not wanting to see the body.

Simba and Kovu leaned over the edge to see the damage, expecting the worst.

Suddenly a voice yelled up from down below "I'm OOOOOOK."

Suddenly a creature who walked on two legs appeared out of nowhere looking very angry and tired. Who was it you may ask, why it's Narfgirl and boy does she look corny in that fantasyland costume.

"Zorro! I work for fifty hours and give up a week of writing because I am too tired but now I come back to find that you have left me for another author, I thought you loved me," she said.

"Oh I do but I just wanted to have an out of body experience," said Zorro.

"But you just applied for a new job," said Narfgirl.

"Hey I bet I could have two jobs at once, annoying your mind with crazy movie quotes while at the same time assisting hostile takeover of the world," said Zorro.

"Uh wrong story Zorro." Said Narfgirl.

"What? You mean Pinky and the Brain aren't here? Then who is that guy right there" asked Zorro pointing toward Kovu.

"That's Kovu," said Narfgirl.

"Oh dear, I thought he was Brain," said Zorro.

"You really need to have your head examined," said Narfgirl.

"No you need to have your head examined you created me," said Zorro.

"Fine then, I will erase you from my memory as if all of this has never happened," said Narfgirl.

All the lions and animals of the pride lands watched as narfgirl thought really hard, but she thought too hard and then suddenly exploded into itty bitty pieces, that quickly turned into pixie dust so she was never seen again.

Zorro and the animals of the pride lands stood there for a moment in shock until Zorro suddenly spoke up.

"She's out of our haiiiirrrrrrrrrrrrrrr! So put that thing back where it came from or so help me, so help me, so help me, and buh bye," said Zorro who then disappeared behind a wall near pride rock because Pride Rock has an underground system like Magic Kingdom.

The lions rolled their eyes and walked back into the cave.

"We have officially hit the bottom of the barrel," commented Nala.

"What was a fox doing in Africa anyway?" whispered a puzzled Kovu.

Ok another chapter Whoot! Some of it you may not have fully understood if you haven't read Narfgirl stories but I think I gave a bit of background info. Just before anyone says it I know the fox should have died but this is a pretty crazy story so lets just say he landed on something soft, even if that something was his own bottom hee hee.

And now for something completely random from Narfgirl

And so narfgirl turned into pixie dust causing Timon to fly after he stepped on it. So now he could spy on Zazu and Maha without their knowledge but was shot down by Max who for some reason acquired Bart Simpson's slingshot, after thinking he was some kind of hawk out to eat the meerkat colony. He then went to heaven and married Binti so everyone is now even. And Narfgirl well since she is pixie dust now, it wears off and disappears so she is now unable to finish Memoirs of a Blue Bird and so everyone rejoiced, yay!

Surgeon General warning: The above paragraph is entirely fictious, believing anything that narfgirl just wrote will probably be hazardous to your health so you should seek council if you did.
