Sprinting and running was a cheetah's favorite thing to do in life, especially Fuli, whi was running as fast as she could while catching a dik-dik antelope. The little bovine tried so hard to run away to escape her teeth and claws, but being a cheetah she was, Fuli managed to tackle it and sink her teeth into it's neck.

It took a little while, but after a long minute, the dik-dik had died and Fuli enjoyed her lunch she caught right now. Fuli aye the dik-dik rather quickly, for she was very hungry.

"Hmm. I love the taste of dik-dik in the morning." She said to herself. "Heh. Let's see those hyenas or jackals try to outrun me catching my food." After about ten minutes, she was done eating the food, and a couple of vultures circled around the bones ans remains le the small antelope

Good thing it wasn't Mzingo the vulture, otherwise, things may have gotten ugly. No, it was just a pair of ruppel's vultures, and one lapped-face vulture looking huge and gigantic. Fuli knew that vultures didn't really like to he bothered while they were eating, and walked away.

Pretty much no one likes to be bothered while eating on an empty stomach. Still, the skin and the nest was pretty good, and she laid on a rock, and relaxed herself while laying on the marble figure. "Hey, are you gonna be long on that rock?" Said a voice that sounded male. "This is my home, you know?

Fuli was a little startled and jumped off the rock like a cat being startled by water. She then had a battle pose ready in case someone was trying to attack her by surprise. "What was that? Who's there?"

"Relax, Fuli, it's just me." Fuli looked and a puff adder snake slithered down to greet her face to face.

"Oh, Juta. It's you. You scared me for a second. Wait, I mean startled, not scared."

"Sorry." Said the puff adder. "Didn't mean to scare you

"I wasn't scared!" Fuli said defensively "I was... surprised."

"No matter. Have you found any kills lately?"

"Yeah, a dik-dik that looked big. He ran fast, but no animal in the Pride Lands are faster than me." Fuli boasted. "Kinda like a playdate if you ask me."

Juta made a small chuckle, and he said: "heh. Not bad. You know I can kill a full-grown buffalo with app the venom I have. Matter if fact, I found myself a good kill myself: a poached rat that had no clue where i was before i snatched at it."

"Was it big? Fuli Asked the puff adder.

"It was enormous. I mean, look at me, I am almost as large as you."

Fuli made a small chuckle. "I know. Well I am not patrolling today and I got nothing better to do."

"Good to hear. Me neither. Let me tell you, Fuli. I am rather full from eating that rat.

Meanwhile, little did Fuli know that from a long distance was alone honey badger who is a nasty piece of work, and it was nine other than: Harif Yes, this rogue honey badger was our looking for some food to eat, and he hoped that he would maul his prey when he gets his paws on it (whoever his next pray may be.)

While looking around, he growled to himself in anger. "Stupid Lion Guard always stopping me from finding a good lunch. And that Bunga, he calls himself a honey badger? Pfft. Yeah right." He kicked a small rock with his right paw and growled again. "He's just a puny weakling, who doesn't know the true ways of a honey badger."

Just then, the honey badger, while not looking, bumped unto something big, and he saw that he bumped into a gorilla. It was Tuma, the one that was exiled from the Rwenzori mountains by sokwe for his treachery, and Hefir growled at him.

"Watch where you're going, punk!" He shouted

Tuma made a menacing growl of his own. "You watch where you're going, you stupid skunk!"

A small fight ensued between these guys and it was just then Draak the exiled hippo was nearby and he was pouting and mumbling to himself. Just then he felt Hefir being thrown at the right side of his body, and the hippo made a mad growl. "Who did that?!"

"Ah, my head." The honey badger moaned.

"You bumped into me. You're so dead!" Said Draak. He charged at Hefir only for the joneybbadher to jump and lock his teeth on the thick skin.

Tuma suddenly caught up to him and tried to pry Harif from Draak's back. The hipponsuddenoyncrashed on the ground from the pain he was experiencing right now. Despite how hard he fell, Draak managed to get back up and try to fight off these two some more.

"Why don't you all just get lost?!" Harif rudely stated. "The Lion Guard always puts me in a bad mood."

"Wait wait wait." Said tuma. "They have been given you trouble as well?"

"Yeah. What's it to ya?"

"Well, Beshte's father just exiled me out of his pod. Now Simba banished me to the Outlands 'cause of that."

The three looked at one another, and they stopped their fighting. "Wait. So the Lion Guard has been putting us in a bad mood lately?" Asked Tuma. "I guess we're not alone on this."

"Yeah. I guess so." Said Hefir. "We all hate the Lion Guard for what they did to us, and they humiliated us."

"Yep. And we hate our own leaders from our families." Said Draak. "I just want to be in charge of my ood."

"And I want some power, too." Tuma added.

"Gentlemen, I think we might have a new friendship between us." Harif said with a thought. "Just look at us, outcasts and animals that want things their own way. Do any of you think that the Circle of Life is nonsense too?"

The gorilla and hippo made a laugh. "Of course it is just garbage!" Said Tuma. "There is no circle of life."

"Yeah, we should do what we want to do." Hefir agreed with the two rogues. "Why let anyone stop us from doing what we want?"

"Yeah!" The two other rogues agreed with the honey badger. "Well. I'm Tuma." The gorilla introduced himself.

"Name's Draak." The hippo said secondly.

"And I am Harif."

"Harif?" Said the gorilla. "I've heard about you and how you kill your prey. You're like... you're like..."

"A criminal around the Pride Lands?" Harif asked boldly

"Yes. Exactly. So, I think we should he a team. We all have a common hatred in the Lion guard and they foiled with our plans."

"Tuma, I was thinking the same thing as you." Draak concurred. "Especially that Beshte and his daddy. I would sure like to kill them for ousting me from the pod. Now, I want revenge."

Harif let out a laugh that sounded maniacal. "I like you guys already. We should be a good team together. With the three of us, we are an unstoppable team. The Pride Lands will bow to us on their weak knees."

The honey badger's friends made evil, wicked smiles with Harif, and they were all in full agreement with this team.

"Come on, team. To the Outlands we go." Then the three new friends went to the land outside the Pride Lands, now having a dangerous, and wicked alliance with one another.
