(We get a Spiral in transition that transitions to Nirmala an Kion in the tree of life)

KION: (Sighs sadly) Why does this always happen to me?

NIRMALA: Whats wrong Kion?

KION: Why do I always get hurt? It's not fair nor fun.

NIRMALA: I feel ya. It's not fun bein hurt but that's what I'm here for.

KION: Yeah, I guess so.

NIRMALA: Here hold out your paw.

KION: Ooo... Kay (he holds out his paw an Nirmala holds onto it) Ow, ow, ow.

NIRMALA: Sorry Kion but just hang on a lil longer.

KION: I'll try

(Nirmala takes out a gentle wrap bandage)

KION: What is that?

NIRMALA: It's a gentle wrap bandage. I'll wrap this around your paw to keep it from gettin hurt more.

KION: Oh, okay.

NIRMALA: Now hold still so I can wrap it around your paw.

KION: Is it gon hurt?

NIRMALA: (Chuckles) No it won't Kion.

KION: (Gulp) Okay.

(Nirmala wraps it around Kion's paw. After shes done she sticks it together)

NIRMALA: There. How's that feel.

KION: A lil tight but better.

NIRMALA: Sorry Kion but it has to be tight in order for you to heal properly. If it's too tight I can loosen it up a lil.

KION: No it's okay.

NIRMALA: You sure? It's not cuttin off your circulation or anythin is it.

KION: No it's not.

NIRMALA: Okay. This needs to be changed daily so come back tomorrow an I'll change it for you.

KION: I will. Thanks Nirmala.

NIRMALA: Anytime.

(Kion yawns)

NIRMALA: Tired?

KION: A lil but I don't wanna miss The Hunters Moon tonight.

NIRMALA: Yeah it's a beautiful sight.

KION: Yeah. (Kion smiles at Nirmala)

NIRMALA: What is it Kion?

KION: Nothin, sorry.
(He looks away)
It's gettin dark outside now I wonder where everyone else is at.

NIRMALA: I'm sure they're comin don't worry.

KION: I hope you're right. (He lays down an chuffs)

NIRMALA: You must be happy bout somethin.

KION: Oh, sorry

NIRMALA: It's okay

RANI: Anyone home!?

NIRMALA: Sounds like they made it back home.

KION: Yeah.

NIRMALA: We're in here!

(Rani an the rest walk into the tree)

KION: Hey guys.

OTHERS: Hey.

KION: Fuli, why Beshte carryin you?

FULI: Leech inncident. Sucked some blood ouda my body an made me dizzy.

KION: Oh.

FULI: Thanks for the lift Beshte.

BESHTE: Anythin for a friend.

(Fuli hops offa Beshte an lands on her feet without gettin dizzy an fallin down again)

FULI: (Sighs) Much better I'm no longer dizzy.

BESHTE: Good.

RANI: How's Kion comin along?

KION: I'm fine just need to wear this gentle wrap on my paw til I'm healed. (He shows them the gentle wrap on his paw)

RANI: Glad to hear that.

(It's now dark outside)

SURAK: It's dark outside now so The Hunters Moon should be risin soon we better go an get ready to see it.

NIRMALA: Good Idea.

KION: (Sighs) Have fun. I'll just be in here.

NIRMALA: You don't wanna see the moon Kion?

KION: Why bother, with my luck, I'll just trip over whatever tripped me up earlier again an end up breakin my paw instead of sprainin it but hey at least the rest of you can the moon.

BUNGA: Works for me.

FULI: Bunga.

KION: (Chuckles) It's okay Fuli. Go an have fun I'll just sleep for tonight. (Kion yawns an goes to sleep)

RANI: Uh Nirmala a word?

NIRMALA: Sure

RANI: (Quietly) Are you sure Kion is okay?

NIRMALA: (Quietly) I don't know anymore. It seems like everytime he gets hurts he gets down on himself.

RANI: (Quietly) I know right.

NIRMALA: (Quietly) I hope he's not gettin hurt on purpose. I like healin people but this, this is just ridiculous.

RANI: (Quietly) I agree. Will halfta figure this out later the moon is almost up.

NIRMALA: (Quietly) Yeah. Let's go.

(They all run ouda the tree of life but Nirmala stops an looks back at Kion)

Oh, Kion I really hope you're not gettin hurt on purpose cuz that would be a betrayal not to just me but to everyone on The Night Pride.

(Nirmala sighs sadly then runs ouda the tree of life after she leaves Kion wakes up an sighs sadly)

KION: I didn think me gettin hurt constantly would make them think I was doin this on purpose. I'm just clumsy. Probably best if I leave an never return.

MAKINI: No Kion don't go (she appears out from behind the vines)

KION: Makini? How much of that did you hear?

MAKINI: All of it.

KION: Oh.

MAKINI: Don't go.

KION: Why not? Nirmala thinks I'm gettin hurt on purpose when I'm not.

MAKINI: I know you're not.

KION: Thanks for believin me but they don't believe me so it's best if I just leave.

MAKINI: Runnin away is never the answer.

KION: Well this time it is.

MAKINI: But what about the roar. The Night Pride would be devistated to know that it left the tree of life when they just got it back.

KION: I know but I've made up my mind. Bye Makini tell The Night Pride I'll miss em especially Rani.

(Kion walks away)
