Zambezia Page #5

concept of what a team is...

You can not be part of ours.

This is a bad idea.

As a deeply bad.

Marabous. Marabou's invasion.

Hurricanes.

The next time someone says

'stop' it might be a warning.

This intensive care is intense.

I see someone feel better.

Another cramp. Hi my fella.

That's nice. Such pain.

I think he's gonna be an

injured in a regular basis.

I'm sorry about the Hurricanes, I

know how much it meant to you.

Yes, I'm so used

to fly in solo...

I have hurt the team.

We're in this together.

I'm in trouble too.

Yes, but I've just got kicked off the Hurricanes.

You wouldn't even know how that feels.

You're right. I guess I wouldn't.

Sorry I slow you down last night.

Nobody asked you to come.

You're welcome.

- I can't believe how sensitive everyone is.

- Maybe "everyone" isn't the problem.

Wait, my fella just don't

leave me, Wait I'm feverish.

Excuse me, which one of

both ordered a massage?

- How many jobs do you have?

- Well, I don't like to be pigeonholed.

There you are. Come, Kai. I'm

Sorry Gogo, I'm leaving.

What? You cannot leave now, Tini needs you.

Zambezia needs you.

Zambezia and me don't mix, Gogo.

My Dad was right, I

never belonged here.

I do not have time

for this nonsense.

Let me go you lunatic stork.

Don't lose them, Hurricanes.

Don't let them lose us.

It's a trap. Too late to warn.

Nice moves, old chap.

Yes, call it good show.

Gogo, let me go, Gogo. I should

never should have come here.

My dad would...

Sekhuru, no more secrets.

Tell the child the story.

Or do you want history

to repeat itself?

Yes, perhaps it's time.

Time for what?

That you to learn the truth. This

is where you started out of course.

Wait, I was born in Zambezia?

Welcome home, Kai. Come inside.

What is this?

Dad? And?

My mother.

Amai. They lived here?

They founded the Hurricanes together.

To guard Zambezia...

And to offer protection to all

birds in the river valley.

What happened to her?

Murderer, she was my wife.

You're not still upset about

that one little thing...

That happened that one time.

It's just what I do.

You could say:
It is my nature.

When nature calls, I answer.

Step it up, Weavers. We are

going to make this valley...

into one big egg omelet.

- You Monster.

- Thank you. One does what one can.

We came across a nest under

attack, by an iguana named Budzo.

Your mother fought so bravely.

I may have lost a wing,

but she gave her life.

We managed to save

one egg that day.

And that was me. If it wasn't

for her, I wouldn't be here.

Zoe?

Now I understand why your

are so interest in Kai.

That was only a part of it. I

know good talent when I see it.

But, Why didn't my dad

tell any of this?

And why are you only

telling me now?

Your father was

blinded by grief.

He made me promise, to

bury the past forever.

So, he took me to Kathungu.

Away from everything.

Tendai could no longer see

the value of Zambezia.

Only the cost.

When you stick your neck out...

Good things happen.

There, Gogo. So,

history lesson over?

I saw Budzo. What, Budzo?

Where? Last night in the forest.

That lizard was missing a claw. That's

what the Marabous where talking about.

They must be working with Budzo. I

don't know what they're up to...

But if Marabou's are helping Budzo

we could be in great danger.

That brute better not lay

a single claw on my Tini.

We have to go back

to that forest.

The Marabou could

have flown anywhere.

But Budzo must

have left a trail.

And that can lead

us to the Weavers.

No, it's too dangerous. You don't

know what you're flying into.

We should wait for

the Hurricanes.

It could be too late by then.

They all should be back by now.

We need to go, father.

I know it's risky, but what

choice do we have, sir?

It's just like you say,

Zambezia comes first.

You always wanted to be

up there, haven't you?

I'm ready, Father.

I'll find them.

Go. You think I'm crazy now...

You have not seen crazy.

Don't make a sound.

Are you serious? What was that?

What? I've got old bones.

Hey, check that out.

Lizard toe minus one claw.

Soon he will be missing a few more claws.

Alright, alright, a little down on that.

Don't worry little Tini, mama Gogo

is gonna save you little Tini.

- My little Tini.

- You know what.

- Maybe I should check it out first.

- Good idea.

Just stay focus, I think.

We are celebrating already.

Where do you think

it comes from?

Without us it would

just be an empty tree.

- She's got a point.

- Well, off course she's got a point.

- Kai?

- Tini? What is going on?

It's Budzo. He made us to build a

bridge to get him on Zambezia.

- Kai, they left ages ago.

- We have to get there before they do.

- What about your dad?

- What about him?

- He's here.

- What?

You know, to be a Zambeziaan

I would even take a bath.

There, I said it.

Yeah. Of course they gonna trust us.

I barely trust myself.

Dad.

Did you hear that?

I can hear noise, is

yes that was a noise.

Go have a look. Why do I

always have to have the look?

See yourself. Kai has arrived.

OK. You look, I'll see.

Acceptable.

Kai, what are you doing here?

What are you doing here?

- I came after you.

- It's my fault you're in that cage.

I shouldn't have left like that.

No Kai, you were right to leave.

Sekhuru told me what

happened to Mom.

We broke formation to

go after an iguana.

To save Sekhuru.

We all get separated.

I left Amai to

fight Budzo alone.

Kai, I have robbed

you of your mother.

I could not bear

the thought of it.

No, Dad. Budzo

robbed of my mother.

You saved Sekhuru and Zoe.

Dad when you meet Zoe you'll see it.

You're a hero to everyone. To me.

From where I'm standing,

you're the hero now.

Let's get outta here.

- Did you hear that?

- Alright, just you heard it.

Tini. Where is my Tini.

- Gogo.

- Tini.

Tendai. What is he doing here?

Gogo, I've been trying...

Wow. That works.

We are leaving, you have

a problem with that?

An exit is on the left.

Don't be a stranger.

Worms.

Budzo, old chap, a splendid

day for a coup. Huh.

Consider this a

hostile takeover.

Oh no, It's up already.

- Budzo!

- Tendai.

What is this? You betrayed us.

You Marabous are just

as naive as Zambezians.

No.

Sekhuru, Sekhuru, come quickly.

Iguanas in Zambezia.

No, impossible.

Gogo, they must not

reach the eggs.

Look what you've done. They'll

destroy Zambezia and you with it.

That treacherous reptile, that was not part of the plan.

He was just meant to be him.

Wait, Marabous are also birds too.

No birds like us.

Not after what they've done.

No, Zambezia is more than a place.

It's an idea.

The idea is that all

of us are important.

Even Marabous. Well said.

If they are willing to help, they

earn the right live here too.

We've never trusted trusted them before.

Why start now.

Because we can't call ourselves

Zambezians until we do.

We're with you. Are we with you?

Yes, we are.

- Grab your eggs and gear on.

- We must stand together.
