I was Right the First Time! By: The politically Incorrect Cheetah, Rindimo Peaceably, Simba layed on his side that was the least damaged after the battle with Zira. It was only yesterday that the tension was finally over. The sun shone brightly on his wounded flank, and warmed it to where it the pain seemed to ebb away, as the rays gave their energy to the exhausted king. And exhausted he was! He very well knew he should have been patrolling the Pridelands hours ago, but given his state of being, one day unchecked would be understandable. The rest he partook of would have probably lasted well until the next morning, had he not felt something. At first, his dulled mind put the feeling aside. The sleep was so overpowering at the moment. But then the sensation grew all the more violent. No matter how Simba tried to ignore it, or shift his position to hopefully be rid of it, his nose was driving him insane! It tickled so bad... he just had to finally use the energy to swipe his paw at it. Instantly, he went into a fit of suffocation. Something swarmed about his muzzle-- cutting off his air supply. In a fit of adrenaline, his eyes shot wide open, and he shoved himself to his feet. Quickly, he stared at his nose, as he desperately swiped at it a second time. Shaving cream! It was shaving cream covering his face! Simba was utterly confused of how it happened, until he heard some giggling from behind a boulder. Trickery! Angrily, he began to lumber off towards the source of the giggling. "SIMBA!" It was Nala Screaming from the bathroom. "What? What?" He rushed over to his mate, who had a towel wrapped around her. "Someone put see-through plastic wrap over the toilet! Now..." "Ew, what a mess!" Simba turned away from the awkward sight. "Hey, I didn't do it! Whoever did this evil prank is at fault!" Simba was just about to comment about his own predicament when more shouting came from the mouth of the cave. "DADDY DADDY!!" Kiara Shouted, "Someone switched my special pills with sugar tablets! What do I do??" "Special pills? For what?" "Um... never mind..." Kiara weakly evaded. "And what's really weird," Kovu interrupted, "Is after taking these pain relieving pills, I feel like I'm retaining water..." Suddenly five lionesses interrupted yet again, cursing, wailing, And dragging eachother towards Simba. "Someone tied all our tails together, and wrote nasty Limericks on our rear ends, and we can't erase them! It's in permanent marker!" Sarafina cried. "At least YOUR limerick is telling the truth, Saffy!" "Shut up, Sarabi!" "Simba, WHat is going on??" Everyone shouted at once. Laughter echoed outside of the cave. Everyone went to see what it was. There before them, were the outsiders, in laughing-induced spasms. There laying by them , was an empty can of shaving cream, a feather, and permanent markers. "I knew it!" Simba scoffed. "I was right the first time I banished the outlanders..."
