Shall we ask them if they want to play?

Yeah, good idea.

Excuse me...

Excuse me - yoo-hoo! Do you want to play?

I think they're busy...whoops!

Let's goooooo!

Kings of the jungle

And queens!

Coming through!

Lions in a hurry!

We're small but we're as tough as...! Ow.

Sorry.

Let's play with the old guys!

They love us!

Yeah, they love us!

Eddie! James!

Oh no.

Were we ever like that?

Come on, Suki, fight me! Fight me!

Small? Must have been.

No - lively.

Er, no, I don't think so

Oh, look fierce.

How's that?

Absolutely terrifying

Thank you. Thought it was.

Ow, ow! Excuse me, claws, claws, thank you!

Go find a crocodile to play with.

They love this. They love this.

No we don't.

Yes you do.

No we don't.

Eurrgh. You've got really stinky breath.

I'm never going to get old.

It's boring...and you get bad breath.

Race you to the top.

Come on, Linus.

You're so slow!

Wrong way, wrong way, wrong way.

Linus, come on!

Okay nobody panic.

I'm panicking, I'm panicking.

Just say no next time...

pretend you've got a foot injury...

Did it!

Where is he?

What are you doing, Linus?

I'm enjoying the view.

You're stuck

No, I'm not.

Well come up here then, the view's better.

Whoops.

Ohh. Ah.

Sorry!

Don't make me come up there and smack you one!

Come on!

Ha...glad you could make it.

Wow. Amazing!

That is awesome!

Although we will have to get down again.

Look at the river

I wonder what's on the other side.

Wanderers, lions that would kill us all if they could.

Mum says the river's so dangerous it keeps them away.

Well, who are they, then?

They're not James and Eddie.

I don't know.

We should tell Mum -

There you are. Tell me what, Suki?

We saw some lions, mum.

Can't hear you darling.

Is this really the best way to do this?

We saw some lions we've never seen before.

Oh, don't fib, Linus.

We did! Down by the river.

There are no other lions near here, Suki

You never believe me. Why don't you believe me?

Ok, you saw some lions.

Whoops... I'm going down...Ow.

Linus, look at the state of you. You're a mess.

Come on, I'll clean you up. Come on.

Eugh. Get off mum.

You're getting spit on me.

Mum, why's Suki so ugly?

Mum, why's Linus got a face like a bottom?

A baboon's bottom...

They never tell you it's going to be this tiring.

Everyone's so dozy.

It's called relaxing. We're lucky.

We can relax because we've got the pride.

Most animals don't know what it's like to live like this.

They should come and live with us.

No, that wouldn't work.

Why not?

We'd eat them.

Wanderers. Oh no.

I told you, I told you I'd seen them.

Shut up!

Get back. Eve look at this.

Wanderers.

Oh dear.

Come on. Let's go give'em the old one-two.

The old what? Oh the old one-two. Yes.

Oh dear, oh dear oh dear.

I can smell fear.

Oh really, it's not coming from this side.

Most certainly not, no.

You have two choices. Run or fight.

We could run.

We're taking over.

I'm sorry but we rather like everything the way it is.

Do we? Oh, yes we do.

You've got five seconds to get out.

Count it Harry.

One, two -

Oh, life's too short.

Nobody said go!

You said five seconds! Not very sporting is it.

Get out of my way.

I'm not ready! No, wait, wait, wait. No!

Get him, Eddie. Bash him.

Come on old man. Is that the best you can do?

Get out.

You can do it. You're winning.

You're losing.

I'll get up in a minute and then you'll know what trouble is.

They're rubbish.

They need us. Eve, Megan,

you take the light one. We'll take the dark one.

Mum. Be careful,

Mum. Stay back.

Get out of here. You don't belong here.

Where are you're men?

Go on. You're just a couple of big bullies.

Go back to where you belong.

Bite him, Mum. Tear his ear off.

Scare them off!

Come on Harry. We don't fight women.

Leave us in peace! Think we're a pushover?

Sending in the girls...I'd die of shame.

You've made a big mistake.

How did they cross the river?

It's full of crocodiles.

I'm scared.

Why did they attack us, Mum?

They want what we've got.

Did they hurt you?

We don't believe in pain, do we girls?

Ow!

Are you all right, Eddie? Oh yes, yes, yes, quite all right.

I was wearing him down.

Oh yes, me too.

Why did that feel like the first round?

Looks like the Wanderers want to take over.

And what the Wanderers want, they usually get.

D'you know,

I think I'll just go and throw myself off something very high.

Oh, I can't be bothered.

Is that a bit of your ear over there?

Pardon!

Oh, I rather think it is. Not to worry.

'Ear' today, gone tomorrow, what?

Is everyone here? Are you all right?

Where's Eve? Has anyone seen Eve?

Eve, Eve...

Oh no.

Oh Eve, what have they done to you?

Oh, Fleck.

Auntie Macheeba.

What's wrong with mum?

Fleck.

Get up mum, get up, please.

I'm so sorry, Fleck. They've killed her.

We'll look after you now. You'll never be alone.

Don't worry Fleck, you're with us now. We're your family.

You can be a brother for to Linus and Suki.

Will they come back?

I don't know.

Don't worry, Linus we can look after ourselves.

You said it was safe here.

Oh come on you two, look around

we're the Pride, we're like, I don't know.

We're like...

we're like the stars.

What? We only come out at night?

No.

We're pretty but we don't do anything?

No.

You are so dim...no, everyone points at us?

No, Fleck, on our own we sparkle but together we really shine.

We're like a perfect constellation

so much the better for being together.

Imagine if you were a leopard,

or a cheetah, hiding away,

Iiving on your own. Nobody to be with. That's why

Hmm, kids.

Follow me. Quietly now.

We need to be strong to protect ourselves.

To be strong we need to eat.

Right, hunting lesson.

Never hunt buffalo unless you're with the pride.

They're dangerous, they can hurt you. But zebra...

Suki, what are you doing up there?

I can't see, I can't see...oops.

I wish we had stripes. Beige is so boring.

Keep down until I say. They saw you!

She looked nice. I wanted to play with her.

We're here to get food, not make friends with it.

Now, what do you need to remember when hunting?

That...we're all sparkly stars?

On our own we twinkle, in a group we-

Forget the stars.

What was the question again?

When hunting: make use of every bit of cover,

stay hidden from your prey as long as possible.

And use surprise.

Suki, look at me.

We're not the quickest animals around, but we're strong and we're smart.

Well some of us are.

There, up ahead. Don't alert them.

What does alert mean?

No! Will you stop mucking around!

Suki, will you stop mucking around!

Watch, this time. You'll have to do it one day.

Hunting lessons are stupid - let's play!

Yeah, let's play!

Mum, you alerted them.

Stay still. I'll distract them.

Buffalo will kill you. Don't move till I get back.

Come on you big idiots. Come on!

D'you know how stupid you look in those horns?

She's very good at this sort of thing...

That's right, run around a bit and get warm...Call that chasing...?

Oh good, they've gone.

Hel-lo, over here.

Get down!

Uh oh.

It's all right Linus. Don't be scared.

Don't breathe...don't move.

They wouldn't want to eat me anyway. I'm quite thin.

Who are you kidding, tubby.

Shoo, go away.

We come in peace!

Mum!

Help! Help mum. Help!

Run. Go on, run for it. Fast as you can.

Mum! Quick.

I'm coming.

Help!

Don't. You. Dare.

Are you all right?

I'd thought I'd lost you.

Anyone hurt?

That was so much fun - can we go back and play with them?

I hope you are joking!

These are great. Will I have them when I grow up?

Yes but they won't work, Linus.

They won't work? No.

Will mine work? Yes.

What! That's not fair.

So, I'll be able to suck my own?

Oh God. No, love.

Why not?

We just...don't. Why not?

I don't know, we just don't.

That's stupid. I'm going to.

Teeth! Teeth!

Wasn't me!

I haven't finished.

All right come on that's enough, you've had enough.

Hello Fleck.

Excuse me, budge up.

Ow, get off Fleck!

What do you think you're doing?

What does it look like?

Mum, Fleck's stealing our supper.

The Wanderers killed his mother. He needs milk.

So!? Forget it! No way!

We help each other out around here.

How else is Fleck going to survive?

That's our milk!

Top snack! Sorry, I think I've finished it all up.

Go away, she's our mother.

You have to be nice to me. I am an orphan.

James, James. Not there!

Ah, that's better.

Thanks a bunch, we were playing there!

Turned out sunny again.

Mm. Have you ever eaten fish?

Er. No, have you?

No. I had a bat once.

Bat? Oh what, those little flying foxy thingys?

Mmm, yes, those are the fellas,

yes. Never again. Fiddly little bones.

Hi Fleck.

Alright Linus?

Mum says we should be friends.

Did I ever tell you that I was an orphan?

No. What, like little what's his name...

Iick, is it? Flock? Flesh?

Fleck-

Fleck. Fleck. That's the one!

Not the whiskers, okay!

Yes. But I'm very well adjusted.

You are indeed.

Ooh, I could murder an antelope, couldn't you?

Have you noticed

the lions never really hang out with the lionesses?

Mm. I don't get it. No, nor do l.

We'll always stick together.

Whatever the world throws at us.

Yes...

Linus, look.

It's the river.

I saw someone.

Who are they? You and me, you big loser.

Well...obviously.

I want to know what's over there.

Mum says it's dangerous.

Parents say that about everything. It's sharp,

it's poisonous, it'll have your eye out...

I've been across.

Fleck, you haven't.

Yes I have. Eight times.

You are such a liar.

That is where the Wanderers live. We know that.

What we don't know is how they got across.

The river's so wide.

And it's got those in it.

The Wanderers wouldn't care. They're wild and mad.

They eat their own cubs and ride on the backs of elephants.

Everyone knows about them.

They're going to come back and get us all one day.

But they're too scary for kids

Iike you to know about.

Ohh!

What's that?

I'm guessing we shouldn't try to eat it.

Hello - listen, we're all animals.

Let's talk this through sensibly.

Talking to animals. Nutter!

They say you should always look a cobra in the eye.

That's it Linus, that's it.

Or was it never look a cobra in the eye?

Run!

Run!

You try to be nice and they just gob on you...

Ooh, yuck!

I took on sixteen cobras once

and within two minutes they were all screaming for mercy.

Shut up Fleck.

Where've you been?

Down to the ri-

To this really nice place not near the river.

Nowhere near the river.

I told you not to go near the river.

I want you to make me a solemn promise that you won't go exploring again.

What she meant was, don't go exploring unless you discover

how the Wanderers got across the river.

You think so?

Mm. If we find the path we'll be heroes.

Imagine that, Linus.

Wherever we go

they'll say there go those fearless lions...

Well, I wouldn't say I'm fearless, to be honest.

But I've got a good sense of direction.

Where are we?

I have no idea.

We need to find the river. Which way is it?

That way.

Or that way.

That way is also possible.

Did you hear that?

What?

That noise.

Thunder.

Trees...

walking trees?

Well that's just ridiculous.

Well, what's that? It's a big curly thing.

Back Linus. Get back...Run!

They can't be that fast.

Don't get under their feet, Linus!

Oh, thank you. Now why didn't I think of that?

Suki, distract them, like mum does.

How!?

I don't know

stand on your back legs, do a dance. I don't know.

Keep running.

Why is everyone bigger than us? Run!

Wow. Great noise! Wish I could do that!

Keep running.

Phew. We've lost them.

This must be how the Wanderers got across.

We've done it!

Well we're not going over it.

Look, we're having an adventure. It's exciting!

Why did I listen to you?

Come on, Linus.

I can't. I've just remembered something.

What?

I'm a terrible coward.

Go away you big bullies!

Oops.

One, two, three...

Did it.

Come on Linus, keep up.

I'm slipping! I'm slipping.

Hold on with both paws.

I'm dangling. I'm dangling.

Made it.

You can do it.

I'm falling, I'm falling.

Hang on. You'll be fine.

I'm not.

Linus, quickly.

Help me Suki!

Come on Linus, quick.

Oh no, hang on. Pull yourself up.

That's it, that's it, that's it.

Good grip, good grip.

Come on Linus, come on.

You can do it; you can do it.

That's it. Jump!

Yeah, you made it.

Linus, Suki

Are you sure you don't know where they went?

Think, Fleck.

I'm sure they wouldn't do anything dangerous.

Mum.

Suki, Linus

What is this place?

Oh, I don't know.

It's like a graveyard.

I wonder who did all the killing.

Yes, fascinating - please can we go now?

Suki, it's a Wanderer!

Yeah, I can see him.

At last, some posh visitors.

The neighbourhood's been going downhill for far too long.

Suki!

Good idea, have a lie down.

You're either very brave to have come here,

or very stupid. Which is it?

Brave -

Stupid -

First they use girls to do their fighting.

Now they're sending in the cubs.

Why don't you pick a fight with someone your own size?

I do, all the time. You're light relief.

Oi - you eat my brother and you're dead meat.

Ha. Well, it makes a change from the begging and snivelling I usually get.

I think I'll let you off, this time.

Let's go home.

I think the river is definitely that way.

In that case, we better go this way.

Uh oh. Hyenas. Don't show them we're scared...

If we stand and face them together we might be all right.

Linus, what are you doing?

I'm hiding.

What?

I'm hiding.

Linus? Help me, Linus.

I'm stuck.

Can you cover my bottom with leaves?

Go away, please.

Bloody hyenas. I'll give you something to laugh about.

Stay away, until you're old enough to look after yourself.

Oh, thank you.

He's lovely.

Can I come out now?

Did I miss anything?

Suki, look, I didn't mean to-

Well you did, didn't you, Linus.

You took care of yourself, Linus.

Let's just get home, shall we.

There's a problem.

We've no choice. We've got to swim.

Are you sure?

Things can't get any worse, can they?

Oh no, I suppose not.

Oh come on. Right, are you ready?

I'll go first.

Come on. Come on Linus. Jump, jump.

...and keep your mouth closed.

Why didn't mum give us swimming lessons?

Eugh, I've got water in my whiskers!

Crocodile

quick, faster, faster! Faster Linus, quick.

We made it.

So that's why the Wanderers don't swim.

That was refreshing. I'll race you back.

I'm actually rather tired.

Okay. Which way is it...?

We were on a mission-

Have you any idea how worried I was?

You could have been trampled by elephants,

attacked by hyenas,

eaten by crocodiles.

Who told you about the...?

We're fine, mum.

And we discovered where the Wanderers got across.

Doesn't that make us heroes?

I'm your mother.

You don't have to do anything to be my heroes.

And now the bridge is down,

the Wanderers won't ever come back, will they?

No. Maybe not.

Fantastic day...best ever.

Growing up so fast.

What do you think my Wanderer's doing right now?

Remember how great he was, Linus?

Hyena on the left, our big lion takes him -aagh,

hyena on the right, he whacks her, aagh.

I enjoyed it more the first three hundred times you told it,

Suki. I thought you hated violence.

Violence is allowed if...

you're saving the life of the one you love.

He doesn't love you, you silly tart.

He likes killing things.

He'd've killed you if I hadn't been there.

No, he wouldn't.

And you're allowed to kill hyenas because they're ugly.

He is so cool. I wonder what his name is?

Cuddles?

Floppy?

Oh shut up.

He's amazing, really powerful.

The Wanderers are such free spirits.

Going where they want, doing what they want.

They're shaggy old tramps!

They're an embarrassment to lions everywhere.

And you're not?

Ow.

Sorry.

How many times do you have to be told?

Look at our lot, Linus.

Watch amazed as Eddie manages to roll over.

Gasp as James grumbles

that warthog isn't as tasty as it used to be!

Baboons!

You are such a boy.

Okay, I'm coming to get you.

Why do they have red bottoms?

Oh, I don't want to think about it, thanks.

Come here, you cheeky little monkey.

For goodness sake, Linus. You'll never catch her.

Course I will.

Good shot.

Ow!

Oh yes, and again.

Eugh!

When you gotta go, you gotta go. That will serve you right.

That is disgusting.

Poof! Do you mind walking ahead, Linus.

I don't think it'll catch on as a fragrance.

Now listen Suki, the easiest target is the throat.

But if you can help it, stay away from the sharp bits.

Don't give me that look.

Mum, I'm not interested in hunting.

It's boring and really mean.

Suki, hunting is not an optional activity,

Iike doing hyena impressions, or scratching.

It's the difference between living and dying.

Why can't we just eat grass?

Everyone else does.

I know it's frightening the first time.

I'm not frightened.

Yes you are, if you've got any sense.

Watch and learn.

Oh god. Mum.

Parents are so embarrassing.

Fine creature, that Macheeba.

Does something for the old loins.

She does something for the old lions?

No, loins.

Oh loins, yes. She does indeed.

You don't mind eating it, then?

Well, it's dead now.

Shame to waste it really.

See these?

Teeth? Er, yes.

Why do you think they're so big?

So we don't lose them?

They're not for nibbling watermelons, are they?

I know you think it's cruel

but this is what lions do.

You can scavenge for a while, but in the end

you have to pull your own weight.

Why? They don't.

Who?

James and Eddie. They don't!

Not forgetting our manners are we ladies?

Thank you!

Room for a little one?

Excuse me. Mind your backs.

Mmm, this is good.

How come the male lions get to lie around waiting for us

to kill their food for them,

just because they're guys?

Because...

You know, you're right, it is incredibly annoying.

Well done everyone.

First rate. Very tasty.

Just the job. This'll set me up.

Hey, can the rest of us have a go now?

Back off,

I'll not tell you again.

I love liver. I hope it hasn't gone?

Who does he think he is? Go on. Send him back.

Just get away, get off. Wait your turn!

Off with ya!

Who's rattled your cage?

Who's he?

Slush? Lush? Keeps himself to himself.

Mother's the skinny one over there.

You know, the one with the nice legs, what's-her-face.

I can't keep up. Who's the father?

No idea.

What am I saying - me, I'm the father.

Really? Congratulations.

All right Sukes?

Su-Kl, Flecks.

You know, I killed one five times this size the other day.

Oh, go away!

You know the trouble with you, Linus,

is you let your sister push you around.

Yeah, yeah, bleuhh bleuhh.

Like you really show her who's boss.

Mm. this is good stuff, this.

Girls. Huh.

Yeah, they are so...Iike us-?

No they're not-

No they're not.

Life's just one big party for them.

They just chase things and have cubs.

We males are supposed to go out

and fight for supremacy all the time, to the death.

Ha. Do we?

It could be the two of us one day, trying to kill each other.

Of course, I have had it especially tough,

because of course, I am an orphan.

...you're an orphan, I know.

I'm starving. They can't still be hungry.

Is it just me or is this slightly off?

Not bad...Very tasty.

Hi Suki.

Hello Fleck.

Why are you stalking me?

Stalking you? Oh no, believe me,

if I was stalking you, you'd soon know about it.

It wouldn't be very good stalking then, would it.

What's that in your mouth?

Nothing.

It looks like grass.

I'm thinking of becoming a vegetarian, actually.

Taste nice?

Great. Yum.

What are you looking at?

Nothing. Nothing. Well, you, I suppose.

Well pack it in, you freak.

Come on then. Let's have a bit of a play.

Fleck get off - God you're heavy.

Oww. Get your scuzzy paws off me.

What is it about teenage boys!

I only wanted a tickle.

Linus, what is it about the males around here?

Over there, the Wanderers are tough and strong;

they'd say "Tell me your problems, little Suki,

and I'll sort it out like a real lion".

More like, "I'm, stupid me,

but I manage to make it look like bravery".

Mm, warthogs.

Hunting lesson.

Oh no, do we have to?

Oh, not again.

Linus, Suki...there!

Aw, Hello, who are you?

I've brought you some homework.

What? Mum, no!

Hello. Ah look, it's really cute.

Ugh. I don't believe this.

It's all right; I'm not going to hurt you.

Don't play with your food Suki! It's not a toy.

Let me kill it mummy - Mum, I mean - you, lioness there.

I'll kill it.

Now go on, when she's not looking...run. Shoo!

No! Don't let it get away Suki!

Now shoo!

Suki!

Bye. Have a good life!

Don't swim in the river: there's a crocodile...

Cheeky pig, gave me the slip! Macheeba drags a wildebeest

Ok, you don't want to hunt.

You want to eat animals other lions have killed.

Well here you are.

Where are you going?

To sleep. It's all yours Suki. See how long it lasts you.

Okay. Bye.

I'll save this for later. I'll just go and sit in the shade.

Oh no, what are you looking at?

You know what, you birds badly need a makeover...

Ughhh, not a good look.

Oi, stay back.

Oh dear, they've come back again.

Thank you, Linus.

Get your own dinner!

Go get 'em huntress.

Stay away! This is ridiculous.

Don't all rush to help!

I would help you but...

I'm enjoying watching you struggle too much.

Get stuffed, you big turkeys.

I never really liked wildebeest much anyway.

Terribly rich.

Come on, Linus.

Show them you're better than Suki.

Kill something.

You can't show your face back there without a dead animal.

Preferably a huge great, fierce-looking- Ah.

You'll do.

Whoops. Buffalo.

Oh, here we go again.

I'm no good at climbing trees.

Yeah, you don't look so smart now.

Stop it! Just don't. Stop it!

Go away, there's nothing to see.

Go away.

This is so humiliating.

Um, are there any lions in the area? I need a bit of help.

Where've you been Linus?

Chased up a tree by a buffalo.

Just don't tell Fleck.

Fleck...

Suki!

Oh brother, you are funny.

You can laugh at me now

You're telling me

But you'll see. One of these days, you'll see.

See what?

So much still to learn.

What was that?

The Wanderers, Linus.

They're back.

They sound so angry.

It's fantastic.

You know, bad fantastic.

They're restless.

The rains haven't come. They need to stay near the river.

So will they be able to cross one day, like before?

I'm afraid they might.

Did you hear that? Yes.

Should we do a ferocious roar back, do you think?

I suppose we should really.

Tactically unsound, in point of fact.

Go away before you break something.

It's him!

Errrggh, how does that feel?!

Clear off and take your fat friend with you.

He's still as brave...

Hello.

Do I know you?

It's me who, it was me who you saved my life.

A while ago. I was a cub.

Oh, I remember. You've changed.

Yes, I've sort of... well I've thought about it ever since,

see and um...I mean,

you look like you probably do that sort of thing every day.

Oh, you talking to yourself?

Go away Fleck.

Why?

I'm talking to a real lion.

He's gone. I wittered. I wittered!

You don't like me because I'm an orphan,

that's it Suki, isn't it?

Forget being an orphan, okay?

I don't care if you were brought up by wasps.

Sometimes I just...want to be on my own.

What are you-? What are you doing?!

What comes naturally!

Well it doesn't come naturally to me.

Not with you.

What's happening?

Linus! He just - oh never mind.

What did you do, Fleck?

It's none of your business.

Yes it is. She's my sister.

We look out for each other.

Oh yeah? Come on then, fight me.

Ok, anytime, Fleck.

Leave it, Linus. He's not worth it.

He'd make hyena meat out of you.

Sorry, I didn't mean it like that.

So which of these are yours?

Um.

They all look quite similar, don't they?

Oh, she is, definitely.

He.

Uh? Oh. He, is it?

Those two over there are mine.

They're mother and daughter, aren't they?

You got a problem with that?

No, no, no.

Well, they're all very lovely anyway.

Absolutely.

Fleck was looking very handsome today.

Fleck, Fleck, Fleck. Forget Fleck.

You and he would make a good couple, Suki.

Give me a break.

Be nice to him.

You can't trust him. He creeps around.

Fleck would look after you.

No he wouldn't.

I'm really sorry he lost his parents.

But he is the most annoying lion I've ever met.

Maybe if you spent more time with him.

I've had enough of this.

So much for the pride.

There are other lions in the world.

Like the...Wanderers.

The Wanderers?

Yeah.

They killed Fleck's mother.

They're marauding assassins who want to take over our Pride.

You stay away from them.

Are you two ever going to stop shouting at each other?

I'll show her.

Perfect.

Don't alert it.

Gently.

Hello. It's all right. I'm not going to hurt you.

Let's clean you up nicely.

Oi, keep still. Keep still.

Where are you going? Where are you going?

Stay here, I'm going to be your new mummy.

Aww, there. I'm a nice fwiendly lion.

I've got a surprise.

Oh dear.

What kind of surprise?

You'll see. Follow me.

Coming Linus?

Ok!

This better be good Suki.

Oh, well done, Suki.

Not bad, eh.

Who's going to kill it? Oh, I could.

Just give me a moment to get in the mood.

What? No, he's a pet.

A what?

I've adopted him.

I'm calling him Martin.

You are completely mad.

No I'm not!

We eat antelope.

Well you're not eating this one.

We are!

No you're not!

You are a lioness. Lionesses hunt.

Nothing works unless we all contribute.

And you contribute nothing. I've done my best with you, Suki.

But...

...But I'm tired of waiting for you to grow up.

I can't have the boyfriend I want,

at least I should be able to keep a pet!

Boyfriend? What boyfriend?

He's a Wanderer.

A Wanderer? Yes.

You stupid, selfish girl.

There are rules in this Pride, Suki.

Everyone has a role, a home and a welcome.

But you have to toe the line.

I'm warning you. Forget this nonsense, now.

Oh stop nagging.

Come back here.

I know where I'll be wanted.

Phew!

Bye mum, bye Linus.

Missed again.

There he is.

Hello.

I'm Suki. I don't know your name.

Dark.

What are your brothers called?

Tall and Handsome?

Ha ha. You turned out well.

Why did you leave your Pride?

Um...they don't...understand me.

What don't they understand?

Everything...me...wanting to be with you?

I understand you.

Yes, I think you do.

Come here.

Are you going to introduce me to your parents?

No, I ate them.

Eurghh!

That was a joke.

Good, very funny!

So, this is the lion's den.

They don't seem very friendly.

Cant you stop them growling and glaring?

Let them look. I'm proud of you.

Say hello to Suki.

"Hello Suki, how are you?

Delighted to meet you, Suki."

Hmm, I think they like me.

Do you remember my pal, Harry?

I'm afraid so.

Didn't you kill Fleck's Mum?

Not bad looking, apart from her mouth.

Don't worry. He'll get used to you.

Have you brought her back for good?

Suki. She has a name.

She's just another mouth to feed.

Kick her out.

No.

Where is Suki? D'you think she's with him, the Wanderer?

No.

I've driven her away.

How could I do that?

Stop it mum. Don't blame yourself.

Anything could have gone wrong,

especially if she's crossed the river.

She'll be back when she's hungry.

I'll never forgive myself if anything happens to her.

Come on, get up. Dark! Tickle me.

Er No.

Oh go on! You know you want to.

No, someone might hear.

Go on, tickle me. Come on, tickle me please.

No we don't tickle.

Okay, lick my ears then, I love that.

You do mine first.

No! No way!

Oh, forget it then.

You're so boring.

Ah, you'll get used to it.

Did you hear something?

I should have told them I was going.

Suki!?

Linus!

What are you doing over there?

I'm...well...I-I'm just...um...

Who's this?

My brother.

You must come home, Suki.

Mum'll forgive you.

I don't need forgiving.

We said we wouldn't be like the others

we'd stay together forever.

I can't go back.

I belong over here now, with Dark.

Come away, Suki.

I've got to go now.

You're doing a terrible thing, Suki.

You're betraying us...

We need to go hunting.

There's something you should...

We hunt as a team. Everyone has a part.

You'll take the outside flank...

Outside flank, my favourite position...

remind me where that is, exactly?

We'll drive the wildebeest towards you.

You head them off at the front and go for the kill.

But...

I don't do hunting.

Outside flank...as far away as possible.

Jolly good. Okay.

Yes this'll do.

Stay down,

Suki...oh no, they're coming towards me!

I can't do this! I'm sorry.

I'm not as confident as I look.

Get off me! You don't understand...

Leave her.

I said, leave her

What d'you think you were playing at?

I don't hunt.

I tried, I just can't.

Whatever you're used to, forget it.

Here, it's kill or starve.

Great date you turned out to be.

You're not with your cosy little family now.

You're one of us.

You let me down today.

So, Linus - Suki never came back then?

Well, she's probably been eaten by now.

Shut up, Fleck.

I always said she was weird. Well,

she's missed her chance with me.

I'm such a catch, it's frightening.

I'm at the height of my physical prowess.

Hyenas!

Oh, oh, ignore them, they'll probably go away.

They're heading straight towards us.

We'll have to drive them back.

Yeah, yeah we could...

or should we...slip away, do you think?

You don't want them to get the food, do you?

Well...

Come on!

Very unpredictable, your hyena.

And actually I'm not that hungry. See you later.

Fleck, we've got responsibilities now.

Ooh! Responsibilities.

Help me...

It's not really a challenge is it!

You do it yourself.

You're just a bad of wind really, aren't you!

Ahh, you kidder.

Go on, get out. Your not laughing now are you!

Well done Linus. So,

it took your sister leaving to make a lion of you.

It's made Fleck quite sulky.

I've had enough of this.

Well, I couldn't be a cub forever.

I'm proud of you.

I'm lonely. I'm missing my family.

They hate me here.

What do you expect? You won't hunt.

To them you're just a useless parasite.

See - you can be charming when you try.

I'll make a real effort to fit in. I promise.

Thank you.

Can we...spend some time alone?

If that's what you want.

I suppose I thought I was special to you and...

well, now I wonder if I am.

You are.

Really? What's special about me?

All my lionesses are special.

Excuse me?

But you are...by far the most...special.

There's a rhino behind you.

Please, this is important to me, Dark.

Look, a girl has to feel

that she's getting something back from a relationship.

Mm.

Otherwise it's all Are you listening to me?

Yes.

You see, we never talk.

What?

I've got something really important to tell you.

You know that rhino I was just-

I'm having your cubs. Please say you're pleased.

I am. But I think we should talk about this later.

Dark!

You could have told me there was a rhino behind me!

Dark!?

You're supposed to be protecting me!

Hey - spare yourself the pain of giving birth

go and drown yourself.

Shut your face, shaggy.

I will be so glad when this pregnancy's over!

At least I won't be short of babysitters - any volunteers?

You've got a bit of dirt on your face.

Let me just get that off.

Stop it, come on.

Any more of that and I'll put Harry in charge of you.

Come on cubs.

You're so cute!

Aren't they gorgeous? They've got your eyes.

Most of the cubs round here have got my eyes.

Good looking aren't they.

Very funny.

Maybe he does love us. It's all going to be fine.

Ohh, we are going to be happy.

Oh, there you are, James.

I've been looking for you all over the place.

I'll tell you something that never happened.

Lots of things never happened.

The Wanderers never came back.

Oh, they'll be back.

I smell them on the wind.

No, sorry, that was me. Can't be helped,

you know, perfectly natural.

Well congratulations. Four more mouths to feed.

Leave us alone.

Come and play with your Uncle Harry.

No? Or maybe you'd rather play with the hyenas.

Come on, come to me.

Cubs!

Get back!

Mewling, puking little spongers.

There, it's all right.

Do take care of them, won't you.

The thing about you, Linus,

is you're too much of a mummy's boy ever to leave the Pride.

Shut up and kill something.

But me, I'm ready to leave. I've had enough.

Well, go on then.

Nothing anybody says will stop me I'll be off and on my way.

Why not go now?

Oh yeah, I know what this is about,

this is because I'm an orphan, isn't it.

Fleck, if I have to hear the word "orphan" from you one more time

I'll bite your legs off,

one by one, and eat them.

Ooh, what's got into you.

Cubs! Where are you?

Don't play around now... Mummy's getting scared...

I love you so much, don't do this! Cubs.

What have you done with my cubs?

Have you lost something? How careless.

No, no. How could you?

They were my babies - they were innocent.

There's not enough food.

What will Dark say when I tell him

you've murdered his cubs?

Oh, I wouldn't tell him that,

unless you want your last baby to go missing as well.

Oh, Rory. You're safe. Oh, my sweetheart.

My darling.

Stay away from us!

Come on, come on. Stay with me.

You'd better have not killed my cubs,

Harry.

Come on, Dark.

I may have psychopathic tendencies

but I'm not an idiot.

...we should attack them and do it now.

Not yet.

Why not? They've got the best land, the best everything.

We're living on scrub here.

Any day now, Harry.

The river's drying up. Soon we'll be able to just walk across.

We should take them by surprise.

Kill them all. Mother's and cubs included.

We'll do what needs to be done.

There, it's all right.

We don't belong here, Rory,

but we'll be all right because we've got each other.

We're like the stars, you and me;

so much the better for being together.

Come on.

Just stay close to me and it'll be all right.

Come on, be brave.

Just put one paw in front of the other.

I've done this before and it's much easier than it looks,

I promise.

That's it, big step.

Oh, you just wait till we get to the other side.

Ooh, spit it out, spit it out.

Don't worry.

Well done.

Here we are, Rory, we're coming home.

Oh no you're not.

Hello Fleck. Still creeping up, I see.

Hello Linus.

Hello.

So, it didn't work out, then.

Oh, I wouldn't say that.

We're not letting you back.

Why not?

We're hungry.

We only need good hunters now, lions who help the Pride.

Do you feel the same way, Linus?

Yes.

In that case all I can do is warn you

that the Wanderers are planning to attack you soon,

so be prepared.

Where will you go?

Oh, don't you worry about us. We're as tough as they come.

Take care Suki.

She's gone.

Do you think she heard?

I don't know.

It won't make any difference in the long run.

This will be as easy as snapping a mongoose's neck.

Listen up, everybody. They're going to have to cross the river.

But they could attack from the back.

If they come from the scrub, Fleck will see them.

We mustn't be picked off individually like last time.

You're covering that approach, Eddie.

Oh, you're in charge now are you?

Oh well, fair enough.

James will spot them if they approach from the other direction.

All right up there, James?

I feel a bit peckish, to be honest.

Stand up and walk around if you feel yourself falling asleep.

Sleep? Don't know the meaning of the word.

It's hard enough to fight off the Wanderers with food in our bellies,

but hungry...our strength is ebbing away.

Let's eat Fleck

Very funny. See you chaps.

Hey, where are you going?

Oh, I'm leaving the Pride.

Now?!

What?!

Yeah, you should come too.

No-

Or are you too scared to see what's out there in the world?

I didn't think I'd ever hear myself say this,

Fleck, but we need you.

You can't hide away here all your life, you know.

I'll move on when the time is right.

You're a coward.

Why leave the Pride now, just when we need to fight?

I am not a coward.

We are staring extinction in the face and all you can do is run.

Suki was right.

You only ever think about yourself.

Ha. Linus, if I don't, who else will?

Careful. It's a strange lion.

Stay close to me.

He could be dangerous.

Who are you?

Lush. Who are you?

Mew.

I think he means me.

I'm Suki. Weren't you in the pride?

That was a while ago. I left to see a bit of the world.

What about you? Why aren't you still with the pride?

Haven't you heard, it's a jungle out here?

It's a long story. The Wanderers are threatening us.

A lot's happened since you left.

Typical

I turn my back for two years and I miss all the fun.

You look like the kind of lion who makes his own fun.

You don't always want to make your own.

Yes, I know. You're hungry.

This was once the riverbed Rory.

An old friend of mine.

It's okay. He won't bite.

I used to think I knew it all,

and that everything needed changing.

Now I know that the most important thing is to contribute,

to be part of a team.

We're good at that, lions.

Don't move from here.

Time I did my bit to help.

At least being with the Wanderers has taught me that.

There's no pleasure in killing. It's just what we do.

That's what these are for.

Come on. It's not for us.

I've got a delivery to make.

Come on, all aboard. Are you on?

Hold on tight. Off we go.

God it's heavy.

This should give them strength.

Good morning. Anything happening, James?

No, nothing, nothing. All very quiet. Nothing happening.

So what's that then?

Oh that. Uh, yes, that is rather new, isn't it?

Are you a breast lion or a leg lion?

Ha ha! Just a hungry lion.

Ooh, these ribs are so good!

Aren't they, though.

I think I know who brought us this.

I hope so, Linus. I really hope so.

I'm sorry Rory, it's not just the river that's drying up.

Something's happening.

Oh my word. It's them, isn't it?

Come on Linus.

Right this is it. Are you ready James?

What? Now you mean?

Come on Eddie.

We don't want to fight up here do we?

Someone's bound to fall off.

Remember the plan,

stay back until you are needed and good luck everybody.

Good luck indeed. I think we might need it.

Shall we get on - you're not getting any younger.

You'll regret that.

I am so looking forward to this.

Fleck, you've come to help us.

Linus, I've joined the Wanderers.

I've had enough of being treated like your family's hanger-on,

the poor relation.

They killed your mother, Fleck.

They are the future. You've never got it, have you?

All of you lot here think life's about "togetherness".

Well, it's not - it's about survival, of the strongest, of the cruellest.

So, I haven't missed the party then.

Who are you?

Lush. Your sister said you could use some help.

Suki!

Mum!

What a touching reunion.

Suki. Get out of the way.

Don't do this, Dark.

Look what I've found, some light refreshment.

No! My baby. Let him go.

No, no. You killer. Let him go.

Drop my cub, Harry. So you did kill my cubs.

Fight me.

Leave him, Suki. He's mine.

Oh, very good, sonny. Come on then.

The edge. Watch the edge Linus.

I'm sorry, did you slip.

Let me hear you beg for mercy.

I'd rather die.

Leave my brother alone, Harry. Roar.

It's all right Suki, leave him to me.

You can do it Linus.

You've got him Linus.

Save me, Dark.

You murdered my cubs, Harry.

Save me!

Killer!

Enough. Back to the river. Come on Fleck.

Just me then. Who wants to fight me?

No, this is not the time to be wasting more lives.

Even yours, Fleck.

Don't you worry - I'll be back.

With...a big team of highly trained lions.

Oh, yeah, run along now.

Yeah, I will run along and then I'll be running back.

You wait and see...

Well done Linus.

Didn't I say that someone would fall off.

Linus, have I said this before?

"I'm proud of you".

You've said it. But I don't think you've meant it.

Well, I mean it now.

I don't know where to start, Mum -

Oh, oh Suki, Suki-

I'm sorry. It was my hormones, they were-

Sh, sh, sh enough

introduce me to my first grandchild.

Thank you Lush.

I gather you know my sister Suki.

Yes. We've met.

I normally look better than this.

I find that hard to believe.

You're really quite the big brother, aren't you Linus?

Oh, stop it!

I'm leaving Suki.

Leaving? That's so "last year".

We're safe now. You've got Lush.

I need to go out and enjoy the world.

You know what we said:

"We'll always stick together, whatever the world throws at us."

Well, if you need me just open your mouth and roar.

You know what?

Everything's back to normal here.

It's all a bit too comfortable.

I think it's time to move on.

He he. I agree, time to seek new pastures, new challenges.

Good one, good one.

Mm. The trouble is we're driven, got too much energy.

Uh oh, here we go again. Look fierce.

Matter of fact I think it's your turn to look fierce.

No it's your turn.

I did it last time, if you remember correctly.

I'm absolutely certain it's your turn.

Ow, ow. Excuse me. Claws, claws. Thank you.

Cubs! Come on. Come over here.

Yes, you too Rory.

Suki! Are you coming? Let's go...

Okay. You're the boss...

although this is not entirely true!
