After an unnecessary fight between Scorpio and Kion, they have finally made a peace deal and will now work together to get Karla back, this also suits Scorpio, after his horrific past the Siberian Tiger looks for revenge, to avenge his family after being killed by Nuro, Makuctha's father back when Scar was wrongly placed as king, Nuro is somewhere in the savanna but Scorpio made a promise to hurt and possibly kill everyone he cares about, even if it means Makuctha, plus Kion made the deal, if he doesn't help they'll hand him in to the PPO, after all, the PPO has countless warrants for his capture, being a vigilante comes with it's downfall and with it is the fact that Scorpio is on the good side but some animals don't see that and why should they, Scorpio killed innocent and evil animals but all for his protection and the fact his past effects his present encounters with other animals, including the PPO. Kion sees what Scorpio is doing, some animals see that Scorpio is trying to make things right and so Kion is teaming up to help and defeat the evils of the past and to rescue Karla, heading back towards the tree Rani greets them, welcoming Scorpio, he still has respect and bows at her presence, "thank you for helping us find my daughter, if we do well i promise that i will personally talk to king Kikau to downgrade or drop all chargers laid against you", " thank you my queen, all i want is for your daughter to be safe but also to do finish my task and end the suffering i have to carry since i was seven, since my family died in the paws of Nuro", Rani nodded but her eyes show that she is worried about taking it too far, that his emotions will get in the way of his judgement and overkill, "we are sorry to hear that but we can't let you just kill him or anyone just because of vengeance", " sorry but you need to understand, before I ran away i went up to my father and mother and as i am crying, anger built up and i promised them that i will avenge them and i can't disrespect them, i bet you or Kion would will do the same thing if you were in my situation?", It is true, if this was Kion, knowing him he wouldn't stop till everyone he or she cares about is dead, especially if a family or friend dies. Kion and Rani share a look, " hay Kion? may i speak with you in private please?", " sure", Kion follows Rani into the tree, they sit down facing each other, " Do you really think it's a good idea to bring Scorpio into this?", " yeah, we could someone like him to help, plus if we help him and help us, maybe he can open up and maybe the pain will go away", " yeah, i understand his story and why he wants to do it but... what if he goes too deep and ends up hurting us, himself and even anyone else? plus we know that we can't just kill someone cause what they did, that is up to the PPO and elders", " true, but also we know that when an animal needs help, physically and mentally we need to help them out whether they like it or not", " okay, but if he gets to out of hand, i want you to bring him in", Kion tried assuring Rani that nothing will go wrong but the stern look on her face told him otherwise, " remember, try and keep Makuctha alive, even if you or Scorpio wants to kill him, as queen, i say to bring him in, " aw, so i can't even torture him a little?' Kion smirking, " depends", they chuckled and share a look, " bring her home safe will you?", " of course i will, don't worry", Kion got up and hugged her, embracing each other for a long time, they broke and headed out, " so were good?", Fuli asked, " yeah, were all good".Scorpio wanted to go badly, Kion saw how impatient he was and announced the plan, " so, since this is my problem, me and Scorpio will be the ones to go look for Karla", " WHAT?, No way, were all coming with you", " no, it's only a two animal mission, I would go alone but with exemptions with our new friend, we will go and save Karla", " but what if you get caught? if your in trouble?", " we won't, and if we are you know what to do, if were not back in a week than you may come look for us", Kion made that up, he would only need only a few days but to stop the arguments Kion finalized the plans, still not happy the Day Pride and Night Pride were worried, even Rani was worried about the plan, but they need to try, " everyone, i know it may sound unpleasant but Kion is right, plus too much of you could make things wrong, we want to rescue her safe and sound, from now on this is a covert operation, no one speaks about this outside these lands and Kion and Scorpio will do their jobs and retrieve Karla", Rani made it sound like she was some commander, well to be honest she is still leader of the Night Pride and so her orders were clear, but Fuli didn't seem to like it, " don;t worry, we'll be back safe and sound", Kion looked at everyone, basically saying goodbye, using eye language", " be safe and bring everyone home in one peace, and keep Scorpio in line", " okay, the plan is set, we will leave at dawn tomorrow, for now, we need rest and time to work out an extraction plan". " Also i would like to question Scorpio about his past", " i think we all do", Bunga said as he came walking to the group, " how are you little B?", " i am fine", Scorpio went up to Bunga and apologized, " don't worry about it, Zuka Zama", " Zuka what-a?", " Don't worry", Bunga was briefed about the plan and so was King Kikau. Tomorrow is the day that Karla returns, well that was Kion's objective, Scorpio's was still hopefully kill Makutha, if not at least give him pain.
