CHAPTER THREE: HUNTING LESSON
"OK. Listen up. Hunting is not all fun and games. It requires skill, patience and complete silence." Everest said.
"You know how to hunt?" Rubble asked.
"She did live in the arctic wilderness for half her life you know." Skye said. "How else did she survive?"
"Since we are a pack we do it together. A pack can hunt big things like, antelope or hippo if they're careful enough." Kat said.
Before he could say more he heard a scream for help. Rushing to the source, the pups were shocked to see a lioness being cornered by a male. The lioness looked to be hurt.
"Please Kovu. I thought we were friends." the lioness pleaded.
"Friends? With you? Fat chance?" Kovu said.
Backing up Kovu rushed at Kiara to kill her.
Kat left his hiding place and ambushed him.
Kat locked his jaws around Kovu's throat and slammed him to the ground. A few seconds later Kat ripped his throat out and tossed him aside.
Kat walked over to her as the pups came out of hiding as well.
After seeing her hurt leg he got worried.
"Let's get her back home. Marshall I'd like you to look at her leg. Everyone else, bring the dead lion with you." Kat ordered.
With Kat and Marshall at Kiara's side they led her to the tree of life.
The others had been getting worried.
Kion saw them first. Upon noticing Kiara he rushed over.
"Kiara! Are you ok?" After getting her settled Marshall treated her injury.
Ono went to get Simba and Nala.
Kiara huddled by Kat's side visibly shaking.
"Will she be ok?" Fuli asked.
"She'll be fine. Its normal to act like that after a traumatic experience." Marshall said. "It may take days or weeks but she'll be ok."
A few minutes later Ono came back with Simba, Nala, Zazu and the pride.
Upon noticing Kat and the strangers Simba growled.
"Its alright dad." Kion announced. "They're friends.
Kiara's parents rushed over.
They nuzzled her.
"What's this white thing?" Simba asked.
"Its called a cast. It will help her heal." Kat said.
He introduced himself to Simba and Nala.
