Convoy looked down at Ignition and smiled. Ignition smiled back and began giggling. "Convoy kissed Aunt Vintani! Convoy kissed Aunt Vitani!" she began chanting, referring to the day that changed Convoy's look at life: Convoy was told to murder Kiara, Kovu, and the three cubs, but his heart had changed due to his cousin's existance. Convoy just simply rubbed his paw over Ignition's back and smiled more.

Akari's ears pricked. She ran to her sister, and stopped when she saw another lion with her. She managed a smile, though she was a little uneasy.

Zallion turned to look at the Pridelanders and Convoy. What? Convoy, with them?!  He thought. Mom's gonna be mad, real mad. He decided to go tell her, but waited unseen, watching from behind a rock.

Ignition sat down as she wandered within her mind. "Have you two touched noses yet?" she giggled. Convoy just simply shrugged.

"Who really cares about the others?" Convoy asked, and then he looked at Ignition, smiling. "Why do you want to know what I've done with your aunt?" Ignition just simply laughed.

Akari squealed in delight. "I'd like to see you two kiss!" She said, laughing. She suddenly wondered where the others; Fang, Kalorii and Rage were. "Where's Kalorii?" She asked, her face looking a little anxious.

Zallion could smell Kalima nearby. Go away, please.... He wished in his head, gritting his teeth. He knew Vitani might not spare them if she found him lurking here. Nor would the pridelanders. He peeked out of the rock, still unseen. Suddenly, a wonderful sight met his eyes. That kid.... Man, she's cute! He thought, gazing at Ignition from behind the rock, unspotted so far.

Ignition looked at Akari and shrugged. She then went into giggling. "When two hearts come together, you should feel a new power." she said as she began spinning, but stopped at the sight of Zallion. She then raced off to him.

OOC: How does he think by 'cute'? Does Zallion think like 'youngling cute,' or does he like her?

((Zallion likes Ignition ^^))

Zallion was alarmed when the cub came running to him, but smiled warmly. "Hey." He said in a whisper. "I'm Zallion, Zan for short. Who're you?" He flicked his tail in excitement, but he was afraid he'll be found. He hoped Kalima was well away, though he could make out a trace of her scent in the air.

Akari saw Ignition crossing the border, but didn't care, for she didn't know that it wasn't supposed to be done. Besides, Convoy was in the prideland's territory. She thought. Nor did she know that there was a price for crossing the border to the pridelands:a pound of flesh; lion flesh.

Zazu had been following the cubs, but seemed to have been lost. Panic rushed through him. The King would kill me! He thought, gulping. He frantically searched for the young cubs.

Ignition kept running towards Zallion until she accidentally bumped her nose into his. She looked down and began smiling. "I'm Ignition." she sheepishly squeaked. She then stepped back, as if in fear.

Convoy looked at the cubs and shrugged. "She looked quite pleased, so I'd say some light monitoring would be a good thing until we can trust him." he stated as he rubbed at his scars.

Zallion saw Vitani alright. He was a little shocked when Ignition bumped noses with him. However, he padded out of the shade of the rock and smiled at Ignition, then turned to look in the direction of his home, wondering if he should leave. Where's Kalima? he wondered.

Meanwhile, Akari left to find Fang and Rage.

Ignition sat down next to Zallion. "So, Zan, do you think we could hang out together for a while?" she asked as she gentley blushed. Convoy had already made it to the rock and jumped up within the middle of Ignition's question, so seeing the cheek's of the cub surprised him. She hadn't even grown out of her awkward stripes and already she knew the emotion of love.
