Forbidden
"Hey check it out"
Alex said as he held up an old map in the book. He opened it and slightly frown at the x mark.
"What is it?"
Zoey asked with Iggy on her shoulder.
"It's a map of all of animalia but what part I'm not sure. There's look to be an island scribble off"
"Hmmm, maybe Livingston will know"
Zoey suggested. The two walked to the center of the library where the Core was located.
"Livingston do you have a moment?"
Alex asked. Livingston lifted up his glasses and smiled.
"Certainly, Reenie I'll be back a moment"
He said to his companion as he made his way up.
"There's this old map I found"
Alex said showing it to Livingston as he looked to it for a moment before quickly rolling up the paper.
"I don't know where you found it, but it's forbidden"
He said quickly as he darted away from the guardians of the core trying to avoid any other questions.
"Well that was strange"
Iggy stated.
"Tell me about it, did you see the look on his face"
Zoey said to Alex.
"Yeah"
"It's like he was scared of something"
"Livingston said it's forbidden but I think he's probably talking about the island itself"
Alex said thoughtfully.
"But why?"
"Let me take a look"
Iggy said as he hopped off Zoey's shoulder and grabbed the rolled up paper and immediately gasp.
"I think I may have a theory my friends"
He said triumphantly.
*G'bubu's Treehouse*
"I've read legends about this island"
G'bubu stated as he tried to take a closer look at the scribble off island.
"Apparently there are other animalians there but they're not like us"
"Who put them there?"
Alex asked curiously.
"No one, they put themselves there"
"So they're an outcast"
Zoey concluded.
"Legends say that they were the ones who put the The Creeper away from civilization"
"Because The Creeper tried taking over Animalia along with the Core"
Alex said
"But why don't they just come back"
"Because they're different. I'm surprised Livingston didn't want to tell you, I mean after all his mate is in charge of the island"
"Mate?!"
Alex and Zoey shouted in shock.
"Wow, who knew?"
Alex said in surprise.
"This is exciting, I mean what if Livingston actually have baby cubs walking around"
Zoey said happily.
"We should go tell him"
She said pulling Alex arm to head to the library but Alex refused.
"Wait, we can't let Livingston know that we know, he will be furious"
"Oh yeah, you're right"
She said in disappointment.
*Few Days Later*
"Alex, Zoey can you come down here"
Livingston said nervously up to G'bubu's Treehouse. Alex and Zoey simply jumped down towards Livingston.
"What is it Big L?
Zoey asked.
"Is it another corespore?"
Alex asked. Livingston shook his head as he signaled them to follow him.
"Where are we going?"
Zoey asked.
"Well, it's about what you found a few days ago"
He said slowly. Alex and Zoey looked to each other before following.
"The island?"
Alex asked
"Yes. I mean are you two willing to see it?"
He asked causing Alex and Zoey's eyes to light up.
"Yeah!"
Zoey said in excitement.
"That would be awesome!"
Alex said. Livingston slightly smiled.
"I thought that maybe it was time, I show you what the real animalians is all about"
He said.
"But you have to be very careful, they are not like us"
He warned as he led them to Zee and Zed who were waiting for them.
"Is it far?"
Zoey asked.
"A bit far"
Livingston answered.
"We can only take you as far as we can"
Zed said as they were finally off the ground.
"We are not very much like around flying there"
Zee said with a sad sigh.
"All in good time"
Livingston said trying to cheer up the zebras. They soon landed at a coast as the zebras said there farewell.
"Now how do we get to the island?"
Alex asked.
"We're not gonna swim over there exactly right?"
Zoey asked not wanting to get her hair wet. Livingston chuckled as he showed them to a small boat at the dock.
"I usually come by myself, so those 'meetings' I be going off to were actually my trip to the island."
He said informing the guardians, who were sitting across from him as he row the boat. They soon arrived to the shore.
"Now I need you two to stay hidden until I give the signal that everything is clear"
He said sternly. Alex and Zoey nodded as they entered the jungle. Livingston quickly hushed Alex and Zoey into a bush as he made his way out to the open field. He looked to make sure the coast is clear but unfortunately he failed to notice a lion jumping out of the tall grass tackling him to the ground. Alex and Zoey gasp in shock as she baring her teeth towards him as she stood over him pinned to the ground. The lioness let out a growl as a warning before blinking in surprise when she notice who it was. She immediately began licking his face with excitement before finally getting off him.
"Well it is good to see you too, love"
Livingston said happily to the lioness.
"Love?"
Zoey said in a whisper to Alex in the bush. The lioness heard them loud and clear, immediately growling towards the bush they were hiding in.
"It's alright, she knows you're there, come on out"
He said with amusement. Alex and Zoey looked to each other nervously before deciding to come out together with Zoey hiding behind Alex. Livingston happily smiled to the lioness.
"Alex, Zoey, I would like you to meet my mate, Vitani"
He said. Alex and Zoey looked to the lioness who stood up on her hind legs.
"You're not Animalians"
She stated before getting on all fours and taking a circle around the two childrens.
"What are you?"
She asked.
"We're humans, a boy and a girl"
Zoey answered. The lioness remained silent as her ear twitch at a noise.
"Quick, you can't be seen here"
She said motioning for the kids to hide back on the bush as she and Livingston remained put as a herd of zebras prance across the grass. Livingston and Vitani waited for them to pass and soon let the childrens out once again.
