It was a rather rowdy rumble between Rani and Jasiri. But they didn't hurt each other so much, and they slowly started to become friends, although it is a slow process between them. "So Kion, you really don't remember anything?" Jasiri asked
The cub nodded his head to the female hyena in reply and he said: "yeah, I can't really remember a lot of things. I'm... slowly starting to get my memories back, but it's slow." and he laid his chin on his arms again.
Jasiri let a sad smile in response, and she said: "don't worry, Kion. I am sure you'll get them back. And you're right, amnesia does take a while to recover. That's what my parents told me about an animal losing their memories."
"Yeah, I know that." Kion said
"Look, should we do something to help remember faster?" Madoa asked. "Sometimes a good hunt can help clear your mind and restore memories."
"Nah, I'm not really hungry. But... I remember... some hyenas that want to deal away with me. Someone like..." the name suddenly came back to his mind, and he blurted with his eyes widened: "Janja!" the earth stopped for a moment as if all of time had stopped for a brief second.
"You called for me, Kion?" said a familiar voice. Kion, Jasiri, and her cohorts looked from behind them, revealing to be Janja, Cheezi, and Chungu themselves, looking ready to settle the score with their longtime nemesis. Jasiri and Rani growled seeing those three troublemakers and they were ready to fight them off to keep them from killing their friend.
"Janja!" Jasiri and Rani exclaimed in unison.
"Hello ladies." Chungu said. "Fancy meetin' you guys here."
"Looks like we got ourselves some more food to eat.!" Cheezi exclaimed.
"Agreed, Cheezi." the leader smirked. "We're gonna have a feast today, boys. Attack!" the three bad hyenas charged at the group of six with zeal, and Janja had Kion in his sights. At first, the cub didn't know how to react at first, but he suddenly remembered he had claws and lions usually triumph over hyenas most of the time, depending on the numbers she age of these two rivals.
Kion smiled confidently, and pulled out his claws from his right paw, and right before Janja could touch his face with his teeth, Lion slashed his claws at the hyena's face, making him yelp like a scared dog. Tunu and Wema were hiding behind a lone tree while watching the fight in a safe distance.
Janja was rolling on the ground three times on his left side after he was just slapped in the face by Kion's paw. A few streaks of blood were seen dripping from his cheek from Kion's claws, but he managed to get up and growl. "I thought you lost your memories, twerp!"
"Well, I recovered some of my memories, Janja! Kion shouted in reply, "you and your friends included!"
"Whatever! We'll still kill ya!"
"And we'll make ya scream real good, Kion!" Cheezi added with a maniacal laugh.
"So prepare for a biting of a lifetime!" Chungu added. "Or... should we claw him to death?"
"Maybe we can make him scream in pain by poking his eyes out with our own claws, Chungu." the crazy one suggested.
"Oh, you guys are hopeless sometimes." Janja said. Looking up, he saw Rani charge at him, and when she tackled him, the lead hyena of the bad bunch clawed at her stomach with his two hind legs and a few drops of blood were seen, making her stumble in pain and giving Janja am opportunity to tackle her in response.
"I've suffered worse pain than that!" Rani exclaimed.
"Well, prepare to meet your maker." Janja said before he felt Rani kick him in the stomach. It was a good thing that; lions were stronger than hyenas when it cake to body weight. Janja got back on his feet and the two were circling each other slowly while glaring at one another.
Kion watched and wanted to help, but he wanted to see what Jasiri was capable of since she was a little older than Kion. Of course, this was his potential girlfriend that he was looking at standing off against one of his most hated enemies.
Janja made the first strike and he was clawing at her with his front legs, but Rani retaliated by using her own front legs to block the attacks her foe was giving her. Before Rani knew it, Janja performed a dirty trick on her: using his powerful jaws to bite down on her neck and suffocate her.
Kion gasped and he shouted: "RANI!" at the top of his lungs. It made him really angry and charge at Janja, but he was suddenly pounced by Cheezi.
"Not so fast, Kion!"
Jasiri caught sight of this and ran over Janja, trying to use her jaws to clamp over his back. "Get off me, Jasiri!" Janja wiggled to and fro frantically to pry her off his back. Despite his best efforts to ory her off, Jasiri wouldn't let go, and Janja had to back up to a tree to pry her off, which worked at least five times.
Cheezi, not being the brightest bulb in the Pride Lands, was distracted by this and it gave Kion a perfect opportunity to kick him off of him, making him crash into another lone tree, breaking it by splitting in half.
Meanwhile, in a far distance, Kovu and the Lion Guard were looking around for more patrolling or some bad guys to fight off. So far, they didn't see anything at all. Suddenly, Khemu, the old lappet-faced vulture came swooping down and landing in front of the group.
"What's going on, Khemu?" asked Fuli
"Friends, Kion is in trouble. He needs your help." Khemu said. "Over to the east side, Janja and his cronies are at it again."
"What?" Kovu said. "I knew something like this will happen. Till the Pride Lands end,"
"Lion Guard will defend!" the kids replied as they followed their temporary leader to look for Kion, and save him from harm.
