Kirobi entered the thicket, his golden eyes searching before they settled on the spots that danced in the grasses nearby. "Chi?" he called. "Kiro!" she exclaimed in reply, winding her slender body through grass and weed, running into his embrace. "I missed you last night; is everything okay at Stormpride?" she asked him, her eyes holding back a solemness. "Yes," he answered, "Sorry, Chi, Desta spotted me leaving and questioned me. I fooled her, but I have a feeling she still has her suspicions," he said. Chipo frowned. "Oh," she said, flatly.

"Is something wrong, Chi?" Kirobi asked, looking down into her sad, wet eyes. "We can't be together anymore," she murmured, her voice cracking, "What? Why?!" Kirobi demanded, deflated. "Shhh," she whispered, and Kirobi lowered his voice, "Because... I'm a lion and all?" he grumbled blandly, his heart sunken. "No, Kiro," Chi answered, again smiling for another moment before it faded once more. "Because Baako saw me leaving. He has suspicions, and now Desta of Storm is wondering about you, too." she said softly. Kirobi immediately began to think up a resolution. "Uhhh, maybe I can join Fangpride?" he said, Chi stifled a chuckle, "We're all Cheetahs!" she whispered, shaking her head. "Uhuh, ummmm.... Hmmm," Kirobi muttered, "Oh! You can become a loner, and so can I! Then it won't even matter anymore!" he exclaimed, "It'll be great! No rules, plenty of territory, lots of-" "Kiro!" she interrupted. "What? he inquired silently. "My loyalty lies here, and yours lies with Stormpride. To desert them for something so... so selfish would be wrong!" she pointed out. Kirobi's eyes looked solemnly at the ground, "Oh," he mumbled, "I guess you're right." he followed quietly. Chipo bit her lip and furrowed, "We can still try and visit, now and then." she said. Kiro unenthusiastically nodded, "Uhuh."
