I once was standing tall / Now I feel my back's against the wall
"An... alligator?" the word rolled rough off his tongue, and he hesitated in following her. He hadn't had much luck recently after all - he'd managed to escape the New King only to nearly be eaten by this 'alligator', though he had been saved... but who knew what this woman would do? She had magic, which none of his Pride had had, and he, well, he had nothing. Then again, it was turn around and face the New King, jump back into the alligator's mouth, or go with this woman and... well, he didn't like surprises, but at least there was a slight chance nothing bad would happen.
And then oh god what was that was it on FIRE he puffed up but... wait, that was a lioness? a lion? but it had a mane and that mane was on fire? but it was a lioness and that was familiar and he could have cried, even at her strange speech he gasped "Okay," and leaped down - an auntie! she wasn't related but she was a lioness and lionesses are aunties and aunties are to be obeyed and it was familiar. He scrambled behind her, looking at this... what's with her long name? But he was to be polite, there was an auntie and it was only polite to introduce himself, "'m Baylock, I don't have a second name." and he was sorry not to have such a long name to introduce himself with.
