Banzai was gone and Ed was the only one there, who had just woken up. Jerrisetti had fallen alsleep as well and fallen off of Banzai and onto Ed. He turned around, his spider whom he had killed for food was gone.

"Umm," said Kiara as she got up "We were hungry. We ate the spider. Your not MAD are you? We were really hungry."

Kopa got up too. Then, Kovu was waking up too, but he wasen't there last night.

"I ate some with Kiara last night." said a sleepy Mheetu waking up "Sorry. I was really hungry. Hey, I can talk again. I wonder if I can walk too."

"GET OUT OF HERE!" screamed Mufasa running up "GET OUT OF MY KINGDOM NOW! I NEVER WANT TO SEE YOU LAY A PAW HERE EVER AGAIN! GET OUT! NOW!"

"You heard him." said Nala who was running with him "Get out. As in, now. We'll take care of the cubs. You will never touch my children again."

Nuka ran up too. This is was not what he had planned. This was not at all what he had planned. They had escaped and he was living a horrible life. They said they were going to help him, but they tricked him.

Soon Sarabi had walked up too.

"What's going on here?" she said and then saw the scene "Hyenas! Outlanders! Get out of here! You know your not welcome here!"

Ed laughed at this. Nothing was funny, but it was so loud he thought it would scare them away. It didn't. It made them more mad. Much, more mad.

Jerrisetti was still sleeping on Ed's back. She haden't woken up from all the noise. She didn't really seem to care. She also didn't seem to care that they could die very soon. She was sleeping so peacefully she didn't seem to care about anything. She was sleeping, so she couldn't care about anything.

"We're saved." whispered Kiara "I could finally tell someone what you did to Uncle Mheetu. Then, you'd be in trouble. Big trouble. We have to get rid of them first first though."

"Yeah," Kopa said "Like anyone's going to believe I almost killed Uncle Mheetu. We all know you did it to frame me. You were always jelous that I was going to be King and you wern't. I heard you plotting to frame me, kill Uncle Mheetu, and take over Pride Rock!"

Kovu winced at this. It was hard for him to sit back and hear him calling Kiara names. He couldn't bear to hear this. He must though. It was very hard though.

"Kiara didn't do it." said Mheetu "Kopa did it. He is the only one doing framing. I was almost killed by him. I know it was him!"

"Is all of this true?" asked Mufasa hardly believeing his ears "I can't believe you! Kopa, how could you? I'm telling your father. Or die trying!"

"Yes." said Nala "It is true. I saw all of it. Every single moment. He should be exciled for what he has done."

"I toldem to." said Nuka "Little twerp wanted to get extera food from 'round here so I tolem to kill 'em. He asked for more food. He could have said no. He didn't."

Sarabi stared at all of this. He didn't know who to believe. There was just so much blaiming going around for there to be a verdict. She could tell Mufasa and Nala were thinking the same thing. Who beat up Mheetu was the question though.

Ed was staring blackly at all of them. He didn't want to leave. So he wasen't going to leave. It was as simple as that. He just wasen't leaving.

Jerrisetti finally woke up.

"What's going on here?" she asked "What happened? All I remember is that the prisoners escaped and I ran after them. The little one with the tuft of hair had beaten up the little non-tufted boy. Did he die?"

"No." said Kiara "Nobody died. Everybody's ok. You have to leave the Pridelands though. Your exciled according to them."

Kopa was in trouble now. He was going to get exciled with the others.There was nothing he could do know. Everyone thought he was evil. He was just trying to get more food! He was tricked by Nuka, and tricking future Kings cannot go unpunished.

Kovu ran away from everyone! He knew he couldn't hang out in the Pridelands. He knew he had better just leave now before he left scared. They let him, without asking questions.

"It was Kopa!" screamed Mheetu who could scream by now "Kopa tried to kill me! It was him! It was him! He did it!"

Mufasa was staring right at Mheetu. He was in shock then. How could he know for sure Kopa did it? Yet, there was something about the look of terror on Mheetu's face that made you believe it really was Kopa. What to do about it though?

"Let's just go on as usual." Nala said "Ed, Jerrisetti, Nuka, out. Now. Before we kill you both. Go. Leave while you still can."

Nuka didn't leave, instead, he ran toawards Pride Rock, and into the Main Cave where the Pride slept.

"HEY!" screamed Sarabi "GET OUT OF HERE! YOU DON'T BELONG HERE! GET OUT! GET OUT NOW!"

Ed laughed again. He was hoping on driving the Pride out of their own land. He laughed harder than he had ever laughed before. An even crazier look than ever. His tongue was flapping everywhere.

Kiara ran after Nuka. She didn't want to be with this hyena one more miniute. She didn't care about the fact that she was a cub. She didn't care about much. She did care about some things though.

"Kiara?" asked Kopa not wanting to be alone with Mheetu and all these grown ups but not showing it "Where are you going? Hey! Come back! Kiara!"

Kovu came back and chased after Nuka and Kiara. None of the Pride saw this coming, since Kovu had ran away earlier. Now he was back though. Now he was going to save Kiara. Now he was going to save her Pride.

"Wait." said Mheetu watch Kovu "Where is he going? I thought he ran away. Is he going to hurt our Pride. They ARE on the same team."

"I think....." started Mufasa but he didn't want to finish ".....I think he's after Kiara! You have to stop him! You have to stop him before it's too late!"

"You can't catch me!" screamed Nuka from inside the cave "You can't catch me! Just try and catch me! You can't catch me! Nay-nay-nay-nay-NAY!"

Ed laughed harder. He was keeping them there. It was getting to be maniacle and crazy laughter. Soon it was out of control. It was working.

"Come.....on....." Kiara said as she ran up Pride Rock "......just....a......little....."

Kopa was standing there. If only he could get past the crazed hyena. Then, he could get at her. If he didn't get cought first. He was going to get the spotlight back and show them all that he was really evil.

"Kiara!" screamed Kovu "Please come back down! You don't know how crazy he is. You don't. Just, please come back down!"

Mheetu was staring at the scene. He couldn't believe this. This lion was trying to save Kiara. Why though? To gain Pride trust?

Mufasa ran after Kiara, Nuka, and Kovu. His heart was pounding. What were they doing? He had thought that Nuka was crushed by logs. Apparently not though.

"MUFASA!" Screamed Nala "DON'T DO IT! MUFASA! MUFASA! MUFASA!"

Nuka looked pretty scared now. All these Pridelanders were coming up Pride Rock. How was he going to take on three of them at once. This was his moment. He was going to be remembered.

"Mufasa." said Sarabi "Mufasa. No. Mufasa. That can't be possible."

Ed was glaring at all of them. Why wern't they cowering? There was an insane hyena on the loose and nobody was worried? At all? Only about that lion up there.

Jerrisetti was very calm. They were right where she wanted them to be. Alone where she wanted them to be. Even better. Nobody to hear their screams.

"Come....." she said to herself ".....on.....come.....on.....come....."

"Yes, Kiara." whispered Kopa "Hunt him down. It may be your last meal. Ever. So hunt him while you can."

"KIARA!" screamed Kovu even louder than before "PLEASE! YOU DON'T KNOW WHAT YOUR DOING! PLEASE COME DOWN! KIARA!"

Mheetu was still staring at them. What was going on? Why was there all this comotion? Why didn't they go faster? Why did they go at all?

"KIARA!" Screamed Mufasa "KOVU! LET ME HANDEL THIS! GET BACK DOWN THERE! YOU DON'T KNOW WHAT HE'S DONE!"

"MUFASA!" Screamed Sarabi "YOU CAN'T TAKE HIM EITHER! LEAVE WHILE YOU CAN! PLEASE GO MUFASA! WE NEED YOU AROUND!"

Ed gave up. He ran to the Outlands. There was no scaring these lions. They knew he was insane. He left. Yet Jerrisetti stayed.
