Zazu's morning patrol of the Pride's territory saw him flying through the jungles along the western border. The majordomo soured between the trees, where he peered down over the jungle floor below. He squinted his eyes, cocking his head from side to side as he observed all that resided below. Catching the occasion glimpse of the monkeys and Macaws that resided in the trees in this part of the jungle.
"Hmm, lets see. The monkeys are grooming as usual." Zazu said before cocking his head to the side.
"The Macaws are chirping like before. How nice."
The majordomo shifted his gaze back down to the jungle floor. It was there he spotted three humans making their way through the foliage.
"Oh, and three man-cubs wandering through the jungle." Zazu said before shifting his gaze away.
Zazu then gasped as he froze mid air.
"Man-cubs!" He exclaimed.
Turning back, he saw the three human, trudging through the foliage. Seemingly making their way toward the pride's hunting grounds
"Oh no, Man is in the jungle!" Zazu gasped.
"I must tell Elsa!"
Zazu then turned and flew off to Hakuna Matata falls.
Brooklynn, Kenji and Lucky trudged through the jungle foliage. Brushing through the leaves and palms as they made their way to the weather plains. Lucky paused for a moment, glancing nervously at the the direction they came. She could hardly see the trail anymore. She wondered if her father was worried about her.
Though it really didn't matter to her. As she was about to see a rare white lioness.
"Lucky, keep up!" Brooklynn called from overhead.
Lucky turned forward, where she saw her and Kenji were already ahead of her. Shaking her head, she rushed ahead through the foliage as she came up behind them.
"Are you sure you know where we're going, Brooklynn?" Lucky asked, curiously.
"Yeah, how do we know we're even going the right way." Kenji said, trying to ward off the bugs that swarm around him.
Brooklynn nodded her head to them.
"Don't worry, I took a picture of the map before we left." she said, holding up her phone.
Over the screen, they saw a picture of the map from the café. Zoomed in over the spot between the Shaka hills and the red zone itself. The path over the map resembling where they had jumped out.
"See, all we have to do is keep moving straight and we'll get to the plains in no time." Brooklynn insisted to them.
"But what about the adults? Aren't they going to notice we're gone?" Kenjis asked, curiously.
"Don't worry about it. By the time they find us, we'd have already unboxed what lies in the red zone." Brooklynn insisted, before continuing on through the jungle.
Lucky glanced to Kenji.
"Don't worry, Kenji. It will all be worth it when we find the white lioness." She said.
Lucky and Kenji followed after her. All but determined to reach the outer plains to the west. Unannounced to the three that something was watching them from the nearby foliage.
Elsa was sitting over a rock under the currents of the waterfall, washing her long icy blond hair. Leaning back her head, she ran her fingers through her hair, stretching out her long smooth legs over the rocks. The wild beauty of her nude body was a sight few could ever resist. A beauty that could only belong to the one called the Queen of the jungle.
The wild woman uttered a faint moan at the cool relief of the currents.
"This feels so nice." she said.
Though the moment was not to last upon hearing the panicked voice of Zazu calling from overhead.
"Elsa, Elsa!"
Elsa opened her eyes, cocking her head to her left as she saw Zazu emerging from the tree. Simba and Nala glanced up to him.
"Zazu, what is it?" Simba asked.
"There is a danger! In the jungle!" The majordomo proclaimed to them.
Elsa stood up over the rocks.
"Zira?!" Elsa asked, curiously.
Zazu shook his head to her.
"Worse. It's Man! Man has come to the jungle!" The majordomo proclaimed to them.
Elsa froze in awe at the mention of man in the jungle.
"Man?" Nala said.
"Where?" Elsa asked, curiously.
"Near the westerns border. They are heading for the pride's hunting grounds!" Zazu proclaimed to them.
Elsa's shock was then replaced by anger. As if the mention they came from the western boarder wasn't already. But it seemed that they were heading for the Pride's hunting grounds. Regardless if North and the others had broken their word to her, she would not allow man to trespass on their territory.
Quickly, Elsa lunged into the water as she swam across the lagoon. Timon glanced over at her, curiously.
"Hey, where are you going?" He asked, curiously.
Upon emerging over the banks, she raced over to the foliage where her pelts laid in wait over the branches. Donning the white tiger furs, Elsa emerged from the brush with her spear in hand. She then glanced up at Zazu.
"Zazu, fly ahead. Find them!" Elsa proclaimed to him.
"Yes, at once!" Zazu proclaimed before flying off the way he had come.
over at Simba and Nala.
"Simba, Nala, come. We need to hurry!" Elsa proclaimed before rushing off into the jungle.
Lucky, Brooklynn and Kenji continued to trek through the jungle to the western plains. All but determined to find what it was that lied there and the secrets it hid. Though it was further they came, a feeling of unease came over both Lucky and Kenji, glancing around the jungle around at the sudden sounds that would emerge. Jenji paused for a moment, cocking his head from side to side.
He glanced over at Brooklynn and Lucky.
"Hey guys, maybe we should head back." He said, glancing over at them.
"I got the feeling like we're being watched."
Brooklynn paused, glancing back to him.
"We're in the jungle, Kenji. Everything is watching us." Brooklynn insisted.
Lucky nodded her head in agreement.
"Yeah, something doesn't feel right. Maybe we should go back." Lucky insisted to her.
"There could be wild animals out here."
"But we're so close. Don't you want to find the white lioness?" Brooklynn asked, curiously.
"Yeah, but I also don't want to be eaten by one." Lucky insisted to her.
As if in reply, the three teen suddenly heard the sound of rustling foliage. The three teens suddenly paused. Peering around the surrounding jungle undergrowth, scanning the leaves for whatever it was that could be lurking nearby. They then heard it again. This time Sounding as if it was getting closer.
Was it one of the adults? Or what it a hungry predator?
Kenji shuddered.
"What... was that?" He said, slinking back.
Lucky held out her hand to Kenji and Brooklynn.
"Nobody move." Lucky insisted to them.
"What?!" Brooklynn said.
"Trust me, I've had some experience with this sort of thing." Lucky insisted to them.
Lucky had learned a lot from her father from traveling the world to exotic places. Most notably, what to do whenever encountering a wild animal. The most vital rule was to never made any sudden movements. Nor to turn tale and run, which would only entice it to chase after you. The best thing to doo at this moment was to remain calm and to not make a sound.
The foliage in front of them rustled as the three slowly backed away, all but ready for whatever was to appear.
Only for a feeling of relief to sweep over them as Darius emerged from the foliage. Yazmina, Ben and Sammy emerged from the foliage behind him.
"Guys!" Darius said.
Kenji breathed a sigh of relief.
"Oh, Darius, thank God." He said, smiling.
Yaz sauntered up to them.
"What are you guys doing out here?!" Yazmina asked, curiously.
"Hang on, your not going into the red zone, are you?" Darius asked, curiously.
Lucky glanced back at Brooklynn before turning back to Darius, grinning. Darius sighed, shaking his head in disbelief.
"Are you kidding me right now, Brooklynn? You guys came all the way out here because of some rumors?!" Darius said.
"I don't think it's just a rumor, Darius. You saw how dodgy North and the others were when Lucky brought it up." Brooklynn insisted to him.
"They're hiding something. I mean, why be so secretive about something like that?"
"Maybe because it's a U.N Sanctuary and they don't want people wandering into it." Yazmina proclaimed to them.
Darius rolled his eyes in annoyance.
"Typical, you think everything is a mystery that needs to be solved." Darius proclaimed to her.
As the teens continued to argue amongst themselves, they were unaware of something lurking in the nearby brush. Slinking in the cover of the lush jungle foliage as it slowly made their way toward them. The slightest sound of brushing leaves was the heard by Ben, who glanced back at the surrounding jungle. Scanning the leaves, he thought he saw something moving through the foliage. He then gasped, sauntering back.
Reaching back, she tapped Sammy's shoulder, who glanced to him, curiously. Her eyes then shifted to the nearby foliage, where she then noticed the leaves rustling, as if something lurked within them.
"Uh, guys...?" She said, turning back to Darius and the others.
Lucky, Darius and the others glanced to them, curiously. It was right at that moment the seven teens heard the sound of brushing leaves. As well as a low growling coming from the jungle brush. Causing them to gasp as they turned to face the jungle.
"What was that?" Kenji whispered, shuttering in fear.
It was right at that moment, a leopard leaped out of the foliage with a loud roar. Landing before the seven teens, they gasped in shock and awe at the sight. The Leopard growled, beginning to circle them.
"Darius, what do we do?" Yazmina asked, glancing to him.
"Don't look away... and whatever you do, don't turn your back." Darius whispered to them.
The leopard continued to circled around the seven teens before suddenly lunging at them. Giving out A powerful bellow followed by a display of it's fangs and claws. The teens gasped as they quickly leaped out of the way of the leopard, landing over the ground. Glancing back, they saw the leopard turning back to them, growling.
"Run, Run, Run!" Darius exclaimed before getting up and running off into the jungle.
Zazu flew overhead through the trees, making his back to the sight of where he had spotted the man-cubs. He scanned the jungle floor, cocking his head from side to side as he searched for the three man-cubs. When suddenly, the sound of a leopard growl from overhead. Followed by the screams of what appeared to sound like that of children.
The Majordomo paused for a moment.
"What in the jungle..?" He said before flying ahead in the direction of the screams.
It was there that Zazu gasped in utter shock. Down below, she saw the three cubs from before. But it was not just three, but seven Man-cubs. And they were being pursued by a Leopard. Regardless if it was for territorial or hunting reasons, such an act was Forbad by the jungle law. And it could not be allowed to stand.
"I must tell Elsa!" Zazu exclaimed.
The Majordomo then turned and flew off to find Elsa.
Elsa moved swiftly through the treetops. Swinging with great speed from the hanging vines, the strength of the jungle woman propelling her through the air. Simba and Nala followed from the jungle floor below. Making their way toward the western border where Zazu had said they had spotted man.
As Elsa continued to swing, Bagheera had the appeared over the branch of a passing tree. Appearing as though he was running next to the jungle woman. Elsa turned to the panther.
"Bagheera!" she said.
"Elsa, what is the danger?" Bagheera said, presuming there was trouble in the jungle.
Elsa landed over the branch of a nearby tree. Bagheera came up over the branch next to her.
"Man has broken their word. They have entered into our part of the jungle." Elsa proclaimed to the panther.
"Man?!" Bagheera exclaimed.
Elsa nodded her head, grabbing hold of another vine.
"Yes and they are heading for the Pride's hunting grounds." Elsa proclaimed to him.
"But they won't get that far. Not if I have anything to say about it."
It was just as was about to lung from the tree and swing off into the jungle, the two then heard Zazu calling from overhead. Elsa turned forward, where she saw the majordomo flying toward them.
"Elsa, Elsa!" Zazu exclaimed to her.
"Zazu, what is it? Have they reached the plains?" she asked, curiously.
Zazu shook his head to her.
"Thankfully not. But I'm afraid that there's now seven of them!" Zazu proclaimed to them.
"And they are being chased by a leopard. And I don't believe it's trying to drive them out of it's territory."
Elsa was in awe at the news of a leopard pursuing man. One of their region no less. Aside of Bagheera, there were many leopards who were not as complacent to the law of the jungle. Like the hyenas, choosing to hunt however they please and whoever they pleased. And now it seemed one had chosen to hunt the forbidden prey.
An act that she couldn't allow to pass.
"We must hurry!" Elsa proclaimed before grabbing hold of the vine and leaping from the tree.
North and the others followed Balto through the jungle underbrush. As they searched for the seven teens who had strayed from the group. North and Mattias trudged behind the husky hybrid as he followed their scent. Brushing through the leaves and foliage in their wake. All the while, Jim and the others followed close behind the two tour guards, calling out for them.
"Lucky!" Jim called out for his daughter.
"Lucky, where are you?" Honeymaren called out as well.
"Darius, Kenji! Brandon called out for his brother.
But they heard no response from the seven teens. Jim glanced ahead, nervously. This was just like that time Lucky had wondered off and nearly ran into a tiger. Who knows what trouble they had gotten into this time.
"Where could they be?" Jim asked, curiously.
"Don't worry, we'll find them." Kate reassured him.
Though as they continued further into the jungle, the group were then alerted by screaming in the distance. The group the paused. It sounded like Lucky and the others. They were in trouble!
"Oh, no, Lucky!" Jim exclaimed.
"Stay behind us!" North said, pulling his rifle from over his shoulder.
North, Mattias and Balto rushed ahead into the jungle. Jim and the others followed suit.
Lucky, Darius and their friends continued to run from the leopard, who chased them through the jungle. Clawed their way through the lush jungle foliage. Though even now, they could hear it's growls and roars from close behind.
"Is it still back there?" Kenji asked, glancing back.
Lucky exchanged a glance back. Despite how fast they ran, the spotted predator was close behind. And with getting closer with each passing moment.
"Still Back there!" Lucky answered.
"Just keep running!" Darius exclaimed.
As Yazmina ran, she grabbed hold of a rock that was laying over the ground. She then threw it back at the leopard, striking the leopard on the head, causing it to pause for a moment. Shaking it's head, the leopard glanced back at the seven teen, growling angerly. Though it would not give up the chase that easily.
Giving a loud bellow before continuing to pursue the seven teens.
Overhead, Darius was looking back to see if the leopard was still following them.
"Did we lose it?" Ben asked.
They then heard the leopard growling from behind.
"Nope!" Sammy answered.
North, Balto and Mattias emerged from the foliage overhead. It was then they saw the seven teen running toward them. North stepped forward to them.
"Children, what are you...?" North said.
Only for the seven teens to pass by both him and Mattias. The two men glanced back at them, curiously.
"Darius?" Mattias said back to his Nephew.
Darius and Lucky turned back to them.
"Watch out!" Lucky exclaimed to North and Mattias.
North and Mattias glanced in confusion at the teens. When suddenly hearing a Leopard's roar from overhead, causing them to turn forward. Before North could even raise his rifle, the leopard pounced out from the foliage at North. Just as he was about to shot its, the leopard came up over the large burley man. His rifle going off as he tried holding back the large spotted cat, who snapped it's jaws at him.
It was right at that moment, Jim, Kate, Honeymaren and the others emerged from the foliage behind the Teens.
"Lucky!" Jim proclaimed, rushing over to his daughter.
"Hang on, North!" Mattias said, raising his rifle to the leopard.
"Everyone stay back!"
They then glanced over at North, who was trying to hold off the leopard. Jim came in front of his family, as well as Mattias's nephews and their friends. Though as North struggled to hold back the Leopard, Mattias was unable to get a clear shot at the beast. Balto scurried forward and pounced at the leopard, knocking it from it's side, causing both he and the leopard to be thrown to the side. North's rifle flying out from his hands. Balto and Leopard rolled over one another before the husky wolf was struck by the leopards paw, throwing him against a nearby tree.
North stood up over the ground, glancing up at his rifle which laid several feet from him. He quickly made a break for his rifle. Only for the leopard to appear in front of him, causing him to faulter. Standing over his rifle, the leopard bellowed at North, of whom he had at his mercy.
"I got him, North!' Mattias said, having been given a clear shot at the leopard.
Mattias then pulled the trigger. And there was a small clicking sound. His rifle having not gone off. It must be jammed. Mattias glanced up, worryingly as he attempted to open the barrel. Only to then glance up when he heard the leopard's growl.
The leopard slowly circled North, who stared back at the spotted beast. Looking back into the eyes of the beast itself. The leopard suddenly bellowed as it then pounced at the burley men.
Elsa swung down from above on a vine with a mighty cry. Just before the leopard could claim North in it's teeth, the wild woman landed between them. She then holds up her spear, which she shoved into the leopard's jaws. Holding back the spotted beast as it roared to her. North moved back toward Mattias and the Elsa tackle with the leopard. As she continued to hold back the Leopard, Elsa came to turn around.
She then rolled over onto her back and kicked the leopard over her, which colided against a tree. Elsa then turned back to the leopard, holding her spear to it. Uttering a growl back at the beast.
From behind, Lucky and the others watched on in awe. Seeing a woman no older then honey, Ryder and Brandon, with long icy bold hair, wearing what appeared to be a white tiger fur bikini. Having swung down from the trees above and saved North from being mauled by the leopard.
Lucky, Darius and the other kids looked on in awe at her.
"Who is that?" Kenji asked, curiously.
They then heard another leopard's snarl from above. Glancing up, they saw a Black Panther leaping down from a nearby tree.
"Another one?" Darias exclaimed.
The panther then came to the side of the jungle woman, growling back at the leopard. If that wasn't enough, two lions then emerged from the foliage off to their left. One a male and the other female. Like the panther, they came up to the jungle woman. The four looking as through they were trying to ware off the leopard.
Seeing that it was outmatched, the leopard gave one last snarl before turning and scurrying off into the jungle.
Elsa stood up, lowering her spear to her side. She then turned back to North and the group of people behind him. North was helped to his feet by Mattias, brushing off the dirt from his clothes. Before recovering his rifle from over the ground. The jungle woman then turned and approached the two men, who looked up to her.
"Ah, Elsa, I can always count on you to swing in and save..."
North was cut short upon Elsa's holding him at the point of her spear. Glancing up at the wild woman, he was met with a stern glance from her. No doubt angry that they had wandered into her part of the jungle. Raising his hands, he grinned as he and Mattias slowly backed away from her.
"U, Elsa... lets... Lets be civil here. This is... not what you think." North tried to say.
Elsa expression remained stern to North's words. Despite what he was saying, North had still broken his word to her. Just as she had always knew he would. The word of man could never be trusted.
"Wait, stop." Jim said, suddenly came between them.
Elsa shifted her glance to him, her dagger now held to him.
"Please, just put down your weapon. We mean you no harm!" Jim insisted to the wild woman.
"Jim, what are you doing?" Kate asked.
"Jim, No. Let us handle this." North insisted to him.
Despite their insistence, Jim continued to try and reason with the jungle girl. Despite the threat that she had gestured with her dagger.
"Do you... understand what I'm saying?" Jim asked, curiously.
Simba, Nala and Bagheera came up behind the wild woman. Nala came up next to her sister, nudging her side. Elsa glanced down at Nala, placing her hand over her head. Nala looked up to her with a faint growl. As if speaking to her sister in the language of their people. One that could not be understood by North and the others. Elsa turned back to Jim before sheaving her spear to her side.
"Elsa understands. Elsa speak your people's language." Elsa then said.
Hearing the jungle girl speak was certainly a surprise for Lucky and the others. English no less. Despite her speech sounding broken as she referred to herself in third person. Though hearing her refer to herself as Elsa was even more of a surprise to Lucky, Brooklynn and Kenji. They glanced to each other, curiously.
"Did she just say Elsa?" Brooklynn asked, curiously.
The three were at a lost for words. The so called white lioness they had presumed to be of that named, turned out to be some Tarzan woman in a fur bikini. While not what they had hoped to find, was still quite the discovery. Especially to Kenji, who stared wide eyed to her. Earning a shoulder nudge from Brooklynn. Though he was not the only one as Honeymaren found herself staring at the wild woman. All but memorized by her beauty.
Jim nodded his head to her
"Elsa. That's... a very nice name you have." Jim commented to her.
Though Elsa continued to appear unfazed. It was then that North stepped forward, placing his large arm in front of Jim.
"Yes, yes, very nice. " North said, coming between them.
"Elsa warned North not to come to this part of Jungle. This part of Jungle closed to man!" Elsa proclaimed to him.
"North gave Elsa his word to stay away."
North nodded his head to her, raising his hands to her.
"Yes, Elsa, I remember promise. We didn't mean to come to your part of the jungle." North insisted to her.
"Some of our guests had... gotten themselves lost. But it won't happen again."
Elsa shifted her gaze back at the others. Her glance mainly directed at Lucky, Darius and the other teens. The seven teen in turn appearing nervous at her looking at them. It was clear to her that North was referring to them as the guests who had wandered into her jungle.
"Please, Elsa." North said.
Though still angered by their presence, Elsa found it in herself to be forgiving. Having been their age before, she could understand how a child's curiosity could out way the wishes of their elders.
Elsa turned back to North.
"Go. Take your people and leave Elsa's Jungle." Elsa demanded him.
"Not return!"
Jim was about to speak up. Only to then be stopped by North, who raised her had to him.
"Leave Elsa's jungle. Or Elsa shall not be so forgiving!" Elsa proclaimed to them.
North nodded his head to her, raising his hands to her. Their sights shifting down at the two lions and panther that now stood next to her. Though appearing tame, seeming shared Elsa's stern gaze.
"Yes, of course, Elsa. We're leaving." North reassured her.
Glancing back at Mattias and the mothers, he gestured his head in the direction they had came. As if telling them to leave. Though it proved to be pointless as the idea was already clear to them. The group then turned and made their way back to the main Road. Elsa, Simba, Nala and Bagheera staying to watch and insure the intruders took their leave.
