Story[]

Badru and Penda were hanging out outside Pride Rock, while their parents talked. Tani watched nearby on a rock, half-heartedly.

"So, what do you like to do, Penda?" Badru asked his new friend.

"I LOVE to run," Penda said. "Especially racing."

With that, Penda jumped onto a nearby flat rock, and began....

Penda: You won't catch me waiting,

Wondering where to go

*jumps off rock* When I can get most anywhere

There's no point in going slow *points to self*

Tani: *tilts head*

Penda: *runs around the cubs*

*skids to stop* *points to self*

The faster I go,

The more that I see

It's part of the thrill

To be everywhere that I can be

There's so much out there

Waiting for me

Tani: *rolls eyes*

Penda: The faster I go

The more that I see

Badru: *widens eyes* *watches in delight*

Penda: *looks towards Pride Rock* *frowns*

So don't tell me stories

Of strolling all around

Badru: *notices caterpillar*

Penda: *smiles at him*

No need stopping every step

To see what's on the ground

Badru: *looks at her in fascination*

Penda: *runs in circle, kicking up dust*

The faster I go

The more that I see

It's part of the thrill

To be everywhere that I can be

Tani: *groans* Ugh.

Penda: There's so much out there

Waiting for me

The faster I go

The more that I see

Penda: *walks up to Badru*

Badru: *smiles*

Penda: *places him on her back*

Tani: *frowns in annoyance*

Penda: *places her on back also*

Penda: *begins running*

Cubs: *hold onto her scruff*

Penda: Everything's all that I see, yeah!

Everything, yes everything, is racing right past me...

Tani *jostled* I think I'm gonna be sick...

Penda: The faster I go

The more that I see

It's part of the thrill

To be everywhere that I can be!

There's so much out there

Waiting for me

The faster I go, *slows down*

*places Badru and Tani back on the grass*

*smiles* The more that I see...


"So, how'd you like that?" Penda asked the lion cubs.

"That was awesome! That was the most fun I ever had!" Badru exclaimed.

"What about you, Tani?" he asked his friend.

Tani groaned. "Yeah, it was great."

"Thanks for the ride, Penda." Badru said.

"No problem!" Penda said. She raced back towards Pride Rock. "I'll see you two later!"

"Ok, bye!" Badru said, waving with delight.

Good riddance, Tani thought angrily.
