The unexpected friendship ch. 3 (Dutch06)

(This is going to experiment with a new, less boring style for my fan fictions. I want to move away from a "screenplay" style and do more of a descriptive "chapter book" style.)
Dutch did not realize that his fall would actually get him where he needed to go. As he woke up, he realized that he was on a familiar part of the backlands, but he didn't know why, until... "Well, now we know he isn't dead." "Ugh, my... hey, wait a minute..." He took a moment to scan the unusual Hyena, until he realized who he was looking at. "Your name isn't... ugh... Korofi, is it?" "Actually, it is! Now, who are you?" "My name is Dutch." "Hmm, I think I recognize you. I don't think we've seen each other in a while." "What do you mean by that...?" "C'mon, let me show you the rest of my clan." Dutch and Korofi took a few more steps before they reached a cave filled with Hyenas that were of the same color as Korofi. He had then realized that he was standing in the presence of someone he hadn't seen in years. "Wait... I remember you now! You're... you were the next in line for leadership, right?" "Correct, although I don't know how we haven't seen each other in so long." "Maybe it's another thing I should look for..." Korofi chuckles, but realizes he isn't responding. "What do you mean?" "You could laugh at me for it, even if you will listen to me." "Just tell me and I promise I won't." "Alright, but I can't promise anything. I was in the outlands, when there was a Lioness who said she was from the Pridelands. Her name is Nala, and I think you know what that means. Regardless, she particularly wanted help from someone, at least. From what I infer, her land was overrun by some evil force and now she wants to do something to make their situation better." "Well, we have seen some Lionesses out more often lately, do you think one of them could be your friend?" "Maybe... when you found me, was I alone, or was anyone else there?" Korofi gestured over to the team she sent out to come near. "I won't go into formal introductions, but did any of you particularly see anyone else where he was?" One of the hyenas responded, "I don't believe so, but some Lions were seen leaving the location in quite a rush it seemed." "That's... odd. I wonder if they were running from something in particular or just the fear of discovery." "I never thought I would hear you talk that way about the literal top of the food chain." Dutch chuckled. "Well, I don't always see eye-to-eye with some of them, but I still hold some decency and respect towards them. I'm not evil, I just mind my own business most of the time." "I see." Korofi looked over at Dutch, "Look, I know you are new here, but do you mind coming along on a mission with me?" "Sure, I don't mind. Anything for a friend." They both look at each other with slight grins. "Squad, let's move out!"
