I have been thinking and I have came up with some ideas about the history of the Pridelands. This is how this story came to be, it's starts with the birth of Uru. So without further ado here's the first chapter. Please remember to leave a review, thank you.
The stars shined brightly across the night sky. Everything is sounds peaceful and quiet, until a loud roar echoed through the air. Animals nearby looked in the direction of a large mountain structure before running off into the dark plains. On the rocky fortress was a large frame dark golden furred lion. His yellow eyes was full of concern as he paced back and forth.
"Mohatu, your pacing isn't helping anyone."
The dark golden male ignored the rusty brown lioness. Who shook her head and looked to the small nursery cave entrance. A golden blonde furred lioness exited the den.
"Mohatu."
The dark golden lion stopped pacing and looked at the older lioness with hopeful eyes. "Is Ishani alright?"
The golden blonde lioness smiled sweetly before stepping aside. "Why don't you find out."
Mohatu looked at the den entrance and took a deep breath before entering the nursery den. Bright amber eyes stared up at him. The light golden lioness smiled lovingly before closing her eyes as she received a nuzzle. "Are you alright?"
Ishani smiled lightly before pulling away from the affection. "Been better but there's some one that once to meet you."
The dark golden male smiled before looking at his mate's side to nearly forget how to breathe. There was two cubs nursing, both beautiful but he wasn't expecting to have more than one cub. Who's going to inherited the throne? Even though it's not his decision, Ishani is the royal queen. He's only king from marriage that was set up when they were cubs. But Imani had a uncle who became selfish and greedy because he didn't become king. Will his cub turn out like that?
"You think too much, Mohatu." Ishani sighed. They have known one another since they were cubs, it's a habit of knowing what the other was thinking. "One step at a time. Now come meet our daughters."
Daughters? He took a deep breath and looked at the princesses. One was a rich golden as the other was light golden like Ishani. "They are beautiful. What are their names?"
Ishani gave her daughters' heads a lick before looking up at the dark golden lion. "I have been thinking and the only names I like are Uru and Mahail."
Mohatu smiled at the cubs, he liked them. "Those are perfect."
Imani smiled before yawning. Mohatu stood and gave Imani and the princesses nuzzles before heading for the entrance. He gave his family one last smile and exited the den.
-O-
A bulky pale white furred lion growled before swiping at nothing but it caused a pale grey hyena to duck. "I should be king! That should be me, with Ishani not that fool."
"Maybe you could get with the princess or have your own cub and betholed them." suggested a light grey hyena, she blew some of her brownish mane out of her brown eyes.
The lion growled before grabbing the hyena by her throat. "You-" he stopped and grinned devilishly. "You are a genius." he dropped the hyena before walking off and lept on a ledge. "I have the perfect plan."
A few hyenas stepped up and looked up at the pale white lion with curious eyes. The pale white lion narrowed his sapphire blue eyes at the speck of the mountain structure. "I'll find the perfect lioness to bare a magnificent king. Then he'll be the princess' friend and later mate. Then we'll have power!"
The hyenas laughed and yelped, causing the lion to grin. Nothing will stand in his way of power.
