Trouble
[Mitten's Point of View]
cobra and I were searching for the perfect spot for Bolt and Maria to hold the ceremony. It is going to be a week before the wedding takes place, but nothing can contain the excitement I have for him. Bolt already told us about that spot they found on one of the hills, but they couldn't risk getting spotted kwa Bruce, so we decided to look somewhere in the forest. I know there was this one spot that works just as well, so we decided to check that out. When we got there, we saw that it was even better than I remembered.
"Well," I said, "I think this will work well."
"Well," cobra replied with swali in his voice, "It's perfect! I mean, I can envision the whole thing happening right now."
"You too? I guess that means this is the spot."
Our tails then crossed. We looked at our tails, then at each other. We both blushed. For weeks now, I began feeling the same way for cobra as Maria feels for Bolt. I need to tell him, but I'm not sure how he'll react. I know I can tell him anytime, but right now is my best time to tell him.
"Cobra, there's something I need to tell you."
"Yes?"
"We've been Marafiki for weeks. I'm not sure how you're going to react, and I know this is a little unexpected, but I have feelings for you."
"Really"
"Yes."
"Mittens, I have the same feelings for wewe too. I just wasn't sure how wewe were going to react. So wewe already know my inayofuata question?"
"Are wewe asking me to be your mate?"
"Yes."
"And would wewe be upset if I alisema yes?"
"No way. I upendo wewe too much to turn wewe down."
We nuzzled each other for what seemed like hours, but we were interrupted from our thoughts when we heard a noise. We hid behind a bush. sekunde later, we saw Bruce appear. He scratched something in the ground before saying, "Bolt, tonight wewe will be sorry for crossing my path. I will never forgive wewe for stealing Maria from me."
When he walked out, we padded over to where he was scratching and saw a crude drawing of Bolt and Maria with an "X" over it.
"Oh no," I alisema under my breath.
"We need to warn them immediately."

[Maria's Point of View]
Bolt and I were still asleep, but I woke up when I heard a scratch at the door. I walked up to the door and poked my head out of the doggie door. I'm sorry I did because I saw Bruce on the other side! I tried to pull my head back in, but he already grabbed me kwa the scruff of my neck. As a puppy, I would find that relaxing; but now it's painful, especially with his sharp teeth. I yelped several times, but there was no response. Bruce pulled me out and threw me over the porch and on the ground. Bruce stood over me and growled, "I am going to enjoy this. It's too bad your 'mate' isn't here to save you."
"That's what wewe think." We both looked over and saw Bolt standing on the front porch. "Listen, I know you're upset that Maria chose me over you, but if wewe had a better attitude, things might have turned out differently."
"Have wewe even met me? I am the king of the streets. If wewe think I'll let up for anyone then wewe have another thing coming." Bruce put his paw on my chest. He applied pressure until one of my ribs broke. I screamed in pain. "You know, it's ironic: on the show, wewe save many lives, but wewe won't be able to save your own life, let alone your mate…"
"Let… her… go…"
"No."
Two zaidi of my ribs broke. I yelped. Bolt could see the tears in my eyes. We could both see what Bruce was planning: he's going to kill me before he kills Bolt.
