"I don't know who you are, but stay away from us." She growled.
"What would happen if we didn't?" Alika said with a mischievous grin.
"Let's just say your face won't be recognisable." Rufaro threatened.
"Give up Alika, the creature is behind them." Hasani's voice had that fear in it.
Alika looked beyond of the gang in front of her and told her gang to scatter. They ran for their lives, screaming. The Eerie Ones looked behind them and in front of them stood a little girl, about 11 years old. She was African American. She was wearing pink shorts, red flip - flops, a thin strapped, blue yellow shirt and an elastic band tied her blonde hair in a bun. Her name was Akachi Yeboah and she was a local village girl. The cubs looked her up and down and Akachi was covered in scratches on her body and holes in her clothes. The girl screamed so the cubs screamed but to Akachi, it sounded like a group of humans screaming which cramped her out, so she tried to run away but tripped over a rock. Nuka started making her way over to her so his gang followed him. Akachi was panicking like crazy.
"Stay away! I don't mean any harm! I'm just lost! Don't eat me! I'm only 11! Turn around! Aaaaaaaahhhhhhh! Ouch!" Akachi grabbed her ankle in pain as she tried to stand up. She just ended up on the floor again.
"Yo girl chill. We only want to have a look at you." Bomani tried to calm her down.
"This must be a dream. I can understand you. I always dreamt of communicating with animals but those were just dreams." Akachi started pinching herself because she thought the cubs were just in a weird dream. That didn't work and she realised that it wasn't a dream at all, it was real life.
"I'm Nuka, this is Jabulani, Bomani, Ebon, Ayo, Rufaro, Folami, Nomalanga, Hasina and Kwanza."
"Akachi Yeboah and I'm from the local village. I live with my 8 year old sister Abena, my Mother and my Father. I'm 11 years old." Akachi beamed.
"I'm a Prince. My Dad is the King and my Mum is the Queen. My siblings are the youngest ones and they're twins. My sister Vitani is the Princess and my brother Kovu is the Prince." Nuka smiled proudly.
"You don't say." Said Folami.
"My Dad is the Chief of the village. The tradition in our village is the Chief must always get married too the prettiest woman in the village when they're 16. They also have too have a child. If there is more than one, the eldest child must do a new dance every week in honour of the Chief. If there is just one, they still have too do it. A team will back up the child and won't have amazing dance moves, because the Chief child needs too be the centre of attention. We perform it every Saturday night, which is today and I'm excited." Akachi squealed.
"Can we see it?" Asked Ebon.
"Sure." Replied tried to stand up but her ankle was twisted but she tried. She did the performance and it was beautiful (even though she was in pain) and everyone enjoyed it. The moment was interrupted by a voice in the distance.
"Nuka! Nuka! It's me! I'm here! Nuka!" Scar was calling for his son but hadn't seen him yet with the human.
"We have too take you somewhere safe, Akachi. The hyenas. Take her too the hyenas." Nuka whispered. He didn't want his Dad seeing him with Akachi. The gang showed Akachi the Clift where Shenzi, Banzai and Ed where. They looked like they were looking for something.
"Pst. Up here." Jabulani whispered shouted.
"Huh. Hey cubs. What's up?" Banzai shouted.
"Sshhh." The cubs shushed Banzai.
"We need you too take care of this girl. Don't eat her. Hide her somewhere were my Dad can't find her." Nuka whispered shouted.
The hyenas nodded. Akachi hugged her new friends and made her way down the cliff. She made it down safely where and was escorted behind a boulder.
"If we are taken away, go home Akachi. Ed, you escort her home. Shenzi and Banzai, you help them up." Nuka instructed. They hyenas nodded.
"Nuka! We've been looking every where for you where have you been? Let's go home! Your parents are in tears, cubs." Scar lead them home.
