Chapter 2

"Okay everyone, it's time for lunch!" shouted Oliver. "Yeah!" shouted the cubs, and hey all started to run back up Pride Rock. "Woah, slow down everyone we'll get there," laughed Oliver. They all went up the path and after a couple of minutes Oliver heard something that made his heart skip a beat, "Ahhhhhhh!" One of the cubs fell off the ledge, "No!" shouted Oliver. "Everyone get back." Oliver looked over the edge and saw the cub standing on a small ledge a few feet down, "Are you okay?!"

"Yes, but please get help!" cried the cub. "Don't worry we're going to get Simba! C'mon everyone lets hurry."

Soon enough they made it to the top of Pride Rock. "Simba...Help...Cub...Ledge," said Oliver between breaths. "Woah, woah, what happened?" asked Simba. Oliver had finally caught his breath, "One of the cubs fell he's standing on a ledge but I can't reach him, I have a plan but I need some help."

"Ok Nala, Kiara watch the cubs, Kovu come with me, Oliver show us where the cub is."

"This way hurry."

"Ok this is the spot," said Oliver looking over the ledge to make sure the cub was still there. "Good he's still there, now here's the plan." Oliver opened The Book and said, "Bring me a rope." And in a flash of light a rope appeared, and Oliver tied it around himself and looped the other end around a rock, "Ok here's the plan, I'm gonna go down there myself and pick up the cub, I need you guys to lower me down and pull us back up, Ok?" Simba and Kovu nodded in agreement, and held the other end of the rope with their teeth, "Here goes everything," said Oliver. And with that he propelled himself down the cliff side, with a grunt of pain from Kovu and Simba. Slowly but surely Oliver lowered himself down to the cub, "Hey there little guy, c'mon I got ya." The cub jumped into Oliver's arms and he shouted, "Okay I've got the cub, pull us up!" Although it wasn't easy Simba and Kovu were able to pull up Oliver and the cub. After Oliver and the cub were back up on Pride Rock the cub rejoiced, "Thank you everyone," he said. "No problem," said Oliver, "we're just glad you're safe."

"Yeah and now that everyone is safe and sound lets go have some lunch," said Kovu.
