The warriors carry Kaban and Serval to a dojo where they are told their mysterious general resides. They enter a room where they see two yellow eyes in the shadow belonging to [[Lion/Anime|Lion]], who is waiting in the middle of the room. Lion interrogates them, with a deep voice, on why they came to the [[Plains]], where they came from and what their birthplaces are. Kaban, still suffering from amnesia, hesitates on the last question, causing Lion's bodyguards to get suspicious. Lion orders Arabian Oryx and Aurochs to leave the room, and as they do so Kaban and Serval start fearing the worst. Lion, however, relaxes and invites her guests to do the same, this time with a laid-back tone of voice. She explains that she has to act like a leader when her minions are present, mostly because of their war against [[Moose/Anime|Moose]]'s army. Lion herself doesn't, however, care much about it, and would rather be lounging around. Unfortunately for her, Moose's side refuses to surrender, even though their 51 previous attempts at attacking Lion failed. Even when she tried to lose intentionally, Moose's "tactic" to keep attacking in a straight line gets beaten by Lion's minions every time before they even make their way to the dojo. Kaban proposes a different kind of war with a safer way of deciding the outcome. Each Friend would be given a safe weapon and a baloon, and to achieve victory they need to burst enemies' balloons. When one's balloon bursts they're out, and if the balloon of a general bursts, the opposite army automatically wins. Lion excitedly accepts these new rules.
