I got the idea for ths story from a picture I saw on Deviantart. I love the idea of the two of them as lion, i dont know why. I'm writing my Mamimum ride story but that shouldn't slow me down from updating this. If you like please review, for the cookie monster!

I don't own kingdom hearts, nobody would like that.


Timon stood on Pride Rock. Simba and Kovu were having a meeting as it seems that the hyena were trying to, once again, take over the Pride Lands. Most of the animals that lived in the Pride Lands were gathering at the bottom of the giant rock. Timon looked down at all of the gathering animals, thankful that they were not down there cause of Pumba's strange digestion in crowds.

A flash of gold caught his eye. He knew there were no golden furred animals in the Pride Lands except for the lions, but none of them have that golden of color in their fur. He looked over to where he saw the flash just in time to see a lion tail flick behind a rock.

There could be only one explanation; an intruder.

Timon ran into the cave that all the lions slept in. One lion sat inside, his dark brown fur hid him well in the darkness. He had some red patches in his fur; he also had a black necklace around his neck in the shape of a roaring lion and a thick black ring around his tail. He obtained them both from the humans.

"Leon!"

The dark lion turned at his name, revealing a scar running across his face that he got from a battle against the hyena.

"What can I help you with Timon?" Timon was an old friend of his grandfather's; Leon knew it was best to respect him. Even if he was only about a foot tall.

"There is an intruder! I saw them with my own eyes!"

An intruder? Leon flattened his ears as he thought. His father was busy with the meeting, as was Simba. And he couldn't go to his mother for help with this. He got to his paws and ran to the cave entrance.

"Show me where." He called over his shoulder.

Timon quickly ran after him.

Cloud raced across the Pride Lands, he had to get away from the meeting as fast as he could. Cloud had golden fur with a white/blond mane; his under belly and the tips of his paws the same color as his mane. He was a small, lithe lion. He wasn't very good at battles, but his small body made him fast and a great spy. Which was why he was so horrified that he had been caught spying on the meeting, by a Meer cat no less.

How could he be so reckless?

He already made one too many mistakes in his live. Even though he was a stealthy lion, he was very clumsy and seemed to mess everything up.

Which was why he no longer had a pride of his own.

He shook his head to get rid of his thoughts, now was not a time to think of that. Being as fast as he is, he was sure that if someone was following him there was no way they would catch him, but it was better to be save then sorry.

And that was the reason why he kept running, and why he almost lost his life that faithful day.

He was running alongside a large cliff that, after a long drop, was a rushing river. It happened to be the same river that Zira lost her life in all those years ago. Cloud didn't realize that the ground under his paws was weak. As he ran at top speed the ground under his feet gave way, sending him cascading down the cliff. He reached out desperately for a hold, but every time he grabbed hold of rock it ripped out of the cliff wall.

He slammed into a ledge sticking out of the rock wall, knocking the wind out of him. The force of the hit sent him rolling off the ledge and tumbling down the cliff once again. But that small stop slowed him down enough to grab onto a paw hold in the cliff wall, completely stopping his fall. He dangled there with his front claws digging into the stone and his back paws dangling. He quickly dug his back claws into the stone wall. He looked up at the ledge that he hit that was about an arm's length away from where he was. The rocks crumbled around his claws, making him slide down.

Great, just great.

Leon raced across the Pride Lands, his home. No one would step paw into his home and get away with it. Timon and Pumba ran behind him, well Timon rode on Pumba. They had picked up Pumba before they left because Timon was slow and they didn't know how dangerous the intruder was.

They had gone to where Timon said he saw the intruder. No one was there, but faint lion footprints were scattered in the dirt and the fresh scent of lion was in the air. Leon was easily able to follow the scent trail, whoever it was didn't try very hard to hide the fact that he was there.

The intruder had to be fast because they had already run through most of the Pride Lands with no sign that they had stopped for a break. Pumba was getting tired of running but there was no way Leon was going to stop running. What if the intruder was like Scar and working with the hyena?

They soon made it to the cliff where his father's mother, Zira, died. The sight of the river dampened many of his prides resolve because of the battle that took place here. But Leon was a determined lion and kept following the scent even when Timon and Pumba stopped.

He ran a good ways before the scent suddenly stopped. He looked around for any places that the intruder could be hiding but there was no sign of any place to hide in.

"Hey!" A voice called.

Leon looked down at the river in confusion. It sounded like the voice was coming from down there….

"Can you help me or what?"

He followed the sound of the voice to see a golden lion holding onto the cliff wall, obviously trying not to fall.

Of course he is trying not to fall you moron!

Shut up you.

I am you, so you just told yourself to shut up.

Leon chose to ignore the voice in favor of jumping down on the rocks that stuck out of the cliff. He stopped on the ledge that was just above the golden lions head. He looked at the distance between the two and figured that if they both reached they would be able to grab each other's paws. He lay down on the ledge and held out his paw to the other.

Yes, he knew this was the intruder, but even so, he could not just let him die.

The other lion looked at his paw as if it were a foreign object.

"Just grab it, it's not gonna bite!" Leon snarled.

"I know that! I'm not a complete idiot!" The golden lion snapped back. His voice was smooth and deep, though not as deep as Leon's.

Cloud leaned some of his weight onto his left paw so he could reach out with his right. Right when his grip left the rock, the rocks under his left paw gave way to the sudden weight. He quickly latched onto the wall with both his front paws again. He slid down a couple more feet before stopping. He looked up at the dark lion above him and knew there was no way he would be able to reach him now.

He was going to die.
