Chapter Two: A Bitter Encounter
After wandering through the Pride Lands for a while, Bongo, Bobo, and Asha finally came across a large tree filled with fresh, ripe fruit. The sight of the delicious food made their mouths water, but something else quickly caught their attention—three other baby baboons were already occupying the tree, eating all the fruit.
Bongo: "Hey, what are those baboons doing on that tree?" He furrowed his brow.
Bobo: "I guess they came to eat as well." He glanced up.
Just then, Asha's stomach growled even louder, and she rubbed her little belly. Bongo bent down and placed a hand on her back.
Bongo: "It's okay, Asha. We'll get you some food." He reassured her.
Bobo: "Let's just ask them if we could have some fruit." Bobo suggested.
As they approached the tree, the trio immediately recognized the baboons in the branches. They were notorious troublemakers in the Pride Lands—Kamari, Razi, and Zahara. Bongo groaned, realizing this encounter wouldn't be pleasant.
Bongo: "Ugh, it's Kamari." He muttered.
Bobo: "And Razi." He frowned.
Asha: *baby voice* "And Zahara." She added.
Kamari and Razi were two older male twins, just like Bongo and Bobo, while Zahara was a young female, just like Asha. They were all around the same age, though a bit bigger and more troublesome.
Kamari: "Bongo?" He peered down from the branches, the oldest of the three.
Razi: "Bobo?" He smirked.
Zahara: "Asha?" She chimed in with a smug grin.
Kamari: "What are you three doing here?" He crossed his arms.
Bongo: "Well, we came here because Asha's hungry." He stepped forward.
Bobo: "In fact, we're all hungry." He added.
Bongo: "So can we just have some fruit so we don't have to see your dumb faces?" He folded his arms, his patience already wearing thin.
Bobo: "Yeah, what he said." Bobo echoed, standing by his brother's side.
Kamari: "You know, we could… but we found this tree first." She shrugged.
Razi: "Yeah, go find another tree!" He sneered.
Zahara: "Yeah! Beat it, loser baboons!" She added with a gleeful smirk.
Bobo: "Hey, there's no need to be mean." He tried to remain calm.
Bongo: "Yeah, can't you just share some fruit with us?" He asked, his voice firm.
Kamari, Razi, and Zahara: "No!" They answered in unison.
Asha: *baby voice* "You three are meanies!" She piped up.
Zahara: "Ha ha ha! The little one can't even speak properly." She burst out laughing.
Razi: "Yeah, does she need her mommy to help her learn how to talk normally?" He grinned.
Kamari: "Hehe. That's a good one, you guys. So funny." He chuckled.
Bobo: "Hey, don't make fun of our little sister!" He clenched his fists.
Bongo: "Leave Asha alone!" He glared at them.
Kamari: "Awww, they're defending their wittle baby sister." He leaned down, smirking.
Razi: "You think you two are so tough?" He added.
Zahara: "But you're nothing but a bunch of losers. Hahaha" She laughed.
Bongo and Bobo's anger grew as the troublemakers mocked not only them but also Asha. They were about to climb up the tree to teach Kamari, Razi, and Zahara a lesson, but before they could move, the three baboons began pelting them with fruit, starting a messy fight.
