Simba`s pride
I don't own any of the characters!
The sun rises over the famus Pride Lands, yellow and red lights chase away the darkness of night, and brighten the new day. All of the animals are gathering at the majestic and beautiful Pride Rock. What they were gathering for was the birth of the new heir to the crown, the cub of King Simba and his mate Queen Nala. The old Shamon baboon named Rafiki was calling them to come, he was to present the new cub to the kingdom. Soon the sun rises fully and Simba and Nala walk up the tip of Pride Rock to Rafiki and hand him their cub. He takes it and holds it high in the air. The animals cheer, and bow down for the new edition to the royal family.
The cub is a beautiful girl. Of corse the animals didn'tknow her name yet, the lions never anounced that, the animals had to find out for themselves. Soon the animals go about what they have to do for the day, and Rafiki returns the lively little cub back to Simba and Nala. Timon and Pumbaa, Simba's caretakers from when he was a ub were standing atop Pride Rock as well.
"Look at that Pumbaa, a chip off the old block, and ya gotta know whos gonna raise him..." Timon says directed at Pumbaa
"Aaa... his parents?" Pumbaa says confused
"Ok sure get technical, but gonna teach him the really important stuff, like how ta' belch" Timon gives out a large burp "Or how ta' dig for grubs? I'm tellin' ya buddy, it's gonna be like old times, just you me, and the little guy." He says pointing his had in the direction of the cub.
Simba, Nala, and Rafiki have all been listening to Timon and start laughing.
"It is a girl." Rafiki says through his laughs
"Girl." Timon corrects himself.
"GIRL!" Timon and Pumbaa say together looking at each other in shock. They both faint.
ooooooooooooooooooooooooo
Over behind all of the animals in the Pride Lands, a pre-teen lion and a lioness cub sit and watched the ceremony. The girl is in a tree, while the lion is playing with a cricket.
"Nuka come on! We have to get back to Mother!" The little cub yells at the pre-teen as she jumps down from the tree, as she hits the ground, it scares the cricket away.
"Aww Vitani, come on look what you did!" The lion complains
"You'll get over it, there are plenty of discusting little bugs for you to play with at home, now come on, we have to tell Mother!" Vitani yells as she takes off, in the direction of the Outlands, Nuka right at her heels.
They cross the river and race to find their Mother, both wanting to be the first to tell her the news.
An insect lands on the ground; immediately, Kovu appears, pouncing. KOVU: Rrrah! Kovu opens his paws to reveal the insect, buzzing; he smiles and opens his paws, releasing it to fly away.
"Kovu!" Zira yells, she was supervising, she grabs the bug from the air and squishes it hard on the ground "Don't let it go. What's the matter with you?"
"But Mother! He wasn't hurting anyone-- "
"There is no room for weakness here, my son. Remember... Scar took you in and accepted you as his own son." She says to Kovu as she draws him into her, Kovu is doubtful.
"But he wasn't my father."
"No... but he chose you to become the next King. When you rule, we shall no longer be forced to live in these dry, barren, disgusting, pathetic, termite-infested Outlands!" Zira is swatting at the ground, railing against fate. Kovu looks down, in quiet agreement. Suddenly, Nuka and Vitani come bounding in, fighting to be the first back with the news.
"Mother! Mother! Mother! They both start yelling over one-another fighting to get a word in.
"We were there-- in the Pride Lands. We saw the whole thing!" Nuka says excitedly
"At Pride Rock. We saw everything!" Vitani says from under Nuka
"We saw Simba's cub!" They say together
"What? Vitani-- what did you see?" Zira says directing her attention to Vitani
"Simba's new cub is a girl!" Vitani says proud that Mother asked her, Nuka gives her a jelouse angry look.
"A girl! " Zira laughs, "Scar, my beloved... did you hear that? This couldn't be more perfect."
"Who's she talking to?" Nuka asks Vitani
"Ssshhh. Scar." Vitani says not even looking at him.
Nuka gasps "Where? Where?"
"Scar's dead... genius." Vitani says through her already sharp teeth
"Yes! Because of Simba... if not for him, Scar would still be King. And I, Zira-- his loving, devoted Queen!"
"You know, speaking of kings... I was thinking, since I am the oldest... maybe I should be King! Huh?" Nuka says trying to look bigger and feirce
"Uh? Don't be a fool, Nuka." Zira almost laughs
"Heh heh... just a thought." Nuka says as he rolls over subserviently on his back.
"Kovu is the chosen one. We must fulfill Scar's dying wish, and train Kovu to become King." Zira says looking at Kovu proudly.
"Oh... yeah... oh, yeah. I can do that!" Nuka says but no one responds
Zira climbs up on a rock point to gaze out over the land. The others follow.
"Look... at the Pride Lands, my pets. So green... so inviting. That is our home... that is where we belong. And soon, my beloved Scar... we shall reclaim your kingdom." Zira says staring off into the Pride Lands, a smirk appearing on her face.
Vitani too smirks, she would fight hard to live in such a place. She had once, but barely remebers. All she could remember was another cub, with a brown toff or fur on his head, then one day he was gone, and the next they had to live here.
Kovu sat by Vitani, they were brother and sister... well half brother and sister... but best friends 'till the end. Kovu was happy to have her with him, she was older, but by a couple months. Sometimes Kovu wondered why Vitani wasn't to be the queen, she was Scar's daughter, tough and feirce, why was it him that had to be King? Or Nuka, he was the oldest, and also Scar's son, if Mother had given him a real chance from the start, maybe he wouldn't be like he is now, desperatly trying to get Mother's affection.
Some other lionesses that lived with them in the outlands had listened to the conversation, and went to tell the others about Simba's cub.
"Vitani and Nuka just returned!" Ashuka anounces to the lionesses that were gathered just outside the termite mounds. They all give their attention to her.
"And..." One lioness asks
"Simba's new cub is a girl." All of the lionesses look at each other happily, Zira would be in a better mood now.
"Can we play with her?" Ashuka's cub, Dotty, asks with wide eyes.
"No Dotty, they live all the way in the Pride Lands."
"Oh..." Dotty, along with her twin sister spotty, is younger than Nuka, but older than Vitani. The two sisters both have a line of dots under their eyes. Dotty's are on her right, and Spotty's are on her left. They play with Vitani usualy, when she wasn't with Kovu.
