Nala's ears folded somewhat at the questions Kiovu was asking her. She had thought Kiara already told him the story at least a few times. She opened her mouth to tell the story again, but it looked like Kiovu had answered his own questions to the other cubs. Perhaps he just asked them for the sake of the newcomers. Nala, too, listened to the story. Even if what her grandson said wasn't the half of it, she didn't add anything. "No," she spoke up passively, still looking ahead, "I think you got everything."
Nala took a sideglance behind her at Kiovu turning his attention to the female cub, Safila. She arched a thin brow as a knowing smirk came to her face. She recognized the techniques of flirting that Safila used, instantly. As a cub, herself, she didn't show any matter of love interest in Simba. They were friends, it would've been so weird. Nala gave a soft laugh through her nose at the memory. And now look where they were.
Suddenly, the old lioness came to a stop. She lifted her head, analyzing the obstacle in front of them. They were now at the border of the Outlands and the crocodile infested river lay below them. Nala looked to her left, seeing a log that spanned the gap of the river(the one Kiara used when first getting into the Outlands). Rather than risking so many cubs in crossing the river through the water, itself, she had a better idea. "Everyone, get on my back," she said down to the cubs, "we're going to cross that log over there." She nodded her head to the "bridge" as she said this, waiting for the cubs to, hopefully, obey her suggestion.
Dani thought about what Nala had said and then looked at the long across the river. He got across the swamp before but it wasn't him he was worried about it was the others and what about Yianni. Dani couldn't endanger Yianni like that. "Are you sure you could handle 5 cubs on your back? I don't wanna end up hurting you. " Dani said. But instead of arguing with her. Dani was the first one to leap onto her back and gave Yianni a hand getting on Nala's back too.
