Zhi nodded, "that sounds fun! Let's go!" He said before following Jayson away from the monkeys.
Batari nodded and smiled, opening her water and taking a sip before answering. "Yeah. My dad had some sudden work come up and mom's also working, and since I haven't really been doing much lately, my dad hired me to watch him." She rolled her eyes, "A whole ten dollars plus money for eating and getting in the park." She smirked, "I get to keep what I don't spend though. So I made us a lunch and snuck it in." She explained, motioning to her backpack. "How'd you get suckered into it?"

Jayson smiled happily, leading Zhi the way out past the monkey's, as well as their 'babysitters', and started towards the hyena territory next, dodging every foot that nearly stepped on them, beginning to scurry along faster till they finally got to the hyena's cage. Jayson grasped hold of the bars of the cage, his mouth dropping in awe of the new animal they were looking at now. "Cooool." he seemed to say finally.
Eric listened to her story of why she was sent on babysitting duty, and only chuckled with a slight groan at it. "Aww, that sucks. Me? Oh, well," he sipped on his soda continuously, "lets see, oldest brother on a date. Oldest sister on a date. Other sister on a date. And twin sis texting her boyfriend complaining of how they haven't gone on a date in a while.(wink, wink lol). I'm next in line of babysitting duty, not to mention I had nothing else to do today but the usual video games. And eating." he laughed aloud, sipping on his coke again. "Oh, yeah, and both parents are at work. So yeah, my life pretty much sucks right now." he snorted out another laugh.

Zhi looked at the hyenas in awe. "They look so funny!" He squealed, getting excited as one of the hyenas looked over to them curiously.
Batari smiled. "I know what you mean... It seems like everyone in my family has plans." She laughed. "But actually, they just run off so they don't have to babysit if our parents have to work."
((I get it. :b You should start. *wink wink*))

Jayson laughed with Zhi at the hyena's, watching as one of them did indeed start over to them curiously, suddenly letting out a cry of their famous laughter people loved to hear from them. Only making Jayson laugh as well, enjoying what he was seeing even more. "I wonder if they're hungry." he asked more to himself, reaching in his little pocket finding nothing but bread crumbs from the ducks he fed a few days ago. "Hm.." he looked at the crumbs in his tiny little hand, before reaching into the bars of the wild animal's cage, dropping the food in front of them and reaching his hand back to himself in order to see the hyena up closer.
"Psh, story of my life." Eric mumbled out, letting a light grin slide on back to his lips as he took another slurp of his coke he seemed to be enjoying almost as much as the pretty girl he had been talking to. "So....new around here? Don't think I've seen you in this town before. Then again, I've only been here for a few months myself." he chuckled.
((lol, okies. ;D))

Zhi watched the bread crumbs and the hyena carefully, seeing if the hyena would eat them. As the animal approach the bread crumbs, Zhi let out a humored squeal. "Maybe he'll actually eat them!" He said to Jayson excitedly.
Batari laughed. "Well... I came here later than my family's been here, but I'm not totally new. I was just... outdoors shy, I guess? I'd rather stay inside than go out and meet new people." She explained.

Jayson watched as the hyena slowly approached the bread crumbs he left for the animal, squealing just as much as Zhi was now. The hyena looked up closely at the two little boys curiously, causing Jayson to stare back just as curiously and intensely, giggling uncontrollably sometimes. and soon enough, the hyena tilted his head back down, chomping on each one of the crumbs in front of him. "He likes it!" Jayson squealed, jumping on his toes excitedly.
"I see." Eric nodded, scoffing lightly at her last remark then. "Outdoor shy? Really? Ha~that's like, the complete opposite of me. If it were up to me, I'd live outside in the forest the rest of my life." he laughed wholeheartedly. "Just give me a mini fridge and video games, and I'm all set." he snickered.

Zhi also began jumping excitedly as the hyena began eating the bread. "He likes it!!" Zhi repeated, gripping the bars tightly as he kept jumping.
Batari laughed, "That sounds like fun. But... where you get the electricity?" She asked, joking lightly.

Jayson continued hopping up and down on his toes, also gripping the bars. "Ohh! You wanna see another animal?" he asked enthusiastically.
Eric frowned then. "Oh, um.." he scratched the back of his head, laughing nervously. "Well, I'm still, working out some of the details." he shrugged, biting back his lip about to change the subject when he turned his head to see how Jayson was doing, only to find that both he and the other little boy was gone. "Oh, shit!" he gasped, jumping up onto his feet, clenching his teeth and fists tightly. "Mom's gonna kill me..." he mumbled to himself, before turning back to Batari quickly. "Um, wasn't your little brother with my little brother?" he asked nervously, already ready for the frustration to come out of her next.

Zhi smiled widely and nodded enthusiastically, "Yeah! More animals!" He replied excitedly.
Batari quickly looked over at where Zhi had been. "Oh my god! Where could they have gone?!" She asked to no one in particular, standing up and looking around to see if he was nearby. "Should we go to the lost children area? Try to find them ourselves?" She asked Eric, still frantically looking around.

Jayson grinned, grabbing Zhi's hand pulling him along towards the next set of animals. "How 'bout the lions?!"
Eric kept repeatedly searching around themselves looking hectically for the missing kids. He nodded to Batari then, agreeing with her suggestion. "Right away too. There's no way I can go home again without my little brother." he told her, waving for her to follow him to the lost children area. Luckily, it wasn't too far.

Zhi nodded, "I like lions! Like in Lion King! I wonder if there (are) any babies." He wondered aloud, still just as excited.
"Same, mom and dad would kill me." Batari agreed, also looking around for any signs of her brother, not seeing him.

"Oh! That's my favorite movie! Er, well one of them anyway." Jayson squealed with delight, practically pulling him with more of a run than a jog towards the lions cages, stopping quickly once they were at the front of the cage where they kept the lions at. "Whoa...they sure big." he awed to himself, watching what seemed like the leader of the lions sleeping in the middle of the lionesses. And then he noticed two little baby cubs come running out to play with each other. "Ooo! Look! Lion cubs!" he squealed, gripping onto the bars as he jumped up and down excitedly.
Meanwhile, Eric continued looking around frantically for his little brother and his new friend. He thought he had looked everywhere, numerous animal cages, under benches, snack bars, even peaking in the bathrooms. Still no sign of him. "Man, this sucks." he groaned, rubbing his hand through his hair to the back of his neck in more in frustration than anything. "Um..do you know where the lost kids booth thing is? Maybe we can ask them to help us or something." he asked Batari, hoping she would know a thing or two about this zoo.

Zhi giggled at the two lion cubs. "Me too, I love that movie! Maybe it('s) Nala and Simba!" He said, pointing to the lion cubs.
Batari tried to think hard, "I know I saw it at one point, but I can't remember where..." She told Eric with a frown. She let out a frustrated groan, "He should know better than to run off!"

Jayson continued hopping up and down on his toes, gripping the bars tightly in his tiny fists, giggling with Zhi. "Yeah! They look just like them too!" he squealed, pointing to the two cubs rolling around in the grass and dirt having the time of their lives. Jayson giggled some more. "It makes me want to play with them!"
Eric sighed. "Maybe we should, walk around. You know, see if we can find them ourselves, if not that, then we'd run into the lost children area." he suggested with a small shrug in his shoulders, crossing his arms then. "Besides, I don't think its completely your brothers fault. Jayson has been known to run off on his own, let alone with some other kid. Sorry 'bout that by the way. I'm sure your brother didn't mean to run off."

Zhi nodded, "Yeah, they're so cute! I want to play with them~" He repeated, also holding the bars tightly.
Batari nodded, trying to think of where the boys could possibly be. "Let's see... Zhi wanted to see... the monkeys... and..." She tried to think hard, sucking in air through gritted teeth. "the lions? Should we try by the wild cat area?" She suggested to Eric.
