"Stupid Simba. Hyenas to!" Dad said, that since I was older now, I should be queen but, only over the hyenas. My tail lashed around behind me and I was startled when I heard dad's voice.
S- "I never thought hyenas essential. They're crude and unspeakably plain. But maybe they've a glimmer of potential, If allied to my vision and brain." I watched him jump down and I walked next to him. "I know that your powers of retention are as wet as a warthog's backside. But thick as you are, pay attention! My words are a matter of prideIt's clear from your vacant expressions, the lights are not all on upstairs."
X-"But we're talking queens and successions Even you can't be caught unawares! So prepare for a chance of a lifetime! Be prepared for sensational news!
A shining new era, is tiptoeing nearer!"
Sh-"And where do we feature?"
Z-"Just listen to teacher. I know it sounds sordid, but you'll be rewarded
When at last I am given my dues! And injustice deliciously squared
Be prepared!"
I sat proped up on an edge and dad led the hyenas.
H-"It's great that we'll soon be connected
With a queen who'll be all-time adored!"
S&Z-Of course, quid pro quo, you're expected...to take certain duties on board.
The future is littered with prizes

The point that I must emphasize is, you won't get a sniff without us!" We got in the hyenas face and I laughed.
S&X-"So prepare for the coup of the century Be prepared for the murkiest scam! Meticulous planning! Tenacity spanning!
Decades of denial Is simply why I'll
Be queen undisputed, Respected, saluted
And seen for the wonder I am
Yes, my teeth and ambitions are bared! Be prepared! Yes, our teeth and ambitions are bared! Be prepared!"
I almost fell from the height but dug my claws into the platform. Laughter erupted throughout the whole 'kingdom.'
