Chapter 1: A New Prince

Kovu and Kiara where depressed. Why? Because Kiara was barren and could never have cubs. Meaning Kovu would have to appoint a new King when the sun set on his time as ruler of the Pride Lands. Unless they adopted a cub of course. However, no cubs needed parents in their Pride. And they supposed they should be grateful. One Evening, Kiara was out hunting.

"Unnatural little beast." She heard a disgruntled human voice say. She curiously crept forward and stayed in the long grass.

Hours previously...

Vernon Dursley of Number 4 Privet Drive was happier than he'd been since a month ago when his wife had been forced to take in her blasted sister's abnormal child. His plan was simple. Take the brat with him when his boss took him on Safari in Africa, and dump him in the brush. He'll be lion food.

He smiled an awful smile as he hid the drugged infant in his bag and climbed into the jeep. They drove around for hours. He was beginning to regret coming to this god forsaken country in the first place. It was hot, humid and it smelled. Which wasn't surprising as he saw an animal carcass every few miles with a lioness dragging it home.

Then the guide showed them that particular part of Africa's pride and joy and biggest tourist attraction. Pride Rock. It was named that because a pride of lions lived within its caves. He snapped a picture for Petunia and Dudders to enjoy and admired the natural rock formation's beauty and they even saw a rare black furred lion with its mate lying beside him. An older male making lion sounds as if it where talking to them. He zoomed in on his camera so he could get a good shot of the black lion. SNAP.

Pfft, be reasonable Vernon. The obese man told himself. Lions are animals. Incapable of emotion or thought except for hunting and eating and mating.

"This particular area is famous because it was destroyed by a plague of some kind, the grass, trees and animals began dying for seemingly no reason. And then suddenly, after a terrible thunderstorm where a lightning bolt set the land on fire, and the land began to flourish again." Their guide said. He even showed them photos of the barren wasteland that the area had become for a few years. "There's a popular children's story among our people that the king lion's brother, killed him to become king of his pride. And destroyed the land's spirit in doing so. But, the murderer lion's nephew, the former king's son, avenged his father's death and restored the natural balance in nature here."

Preposterous. Lions have no concept of revenge. Their mindless animals. And mindless animals deserve each other.

Click!

An idea popped into Vernon's mind. An awful, brilliant idea.

"Er, would you please excuse me? Have to take a leak." Vernon said casually.

"Of course Mr. Dursley, just be careful in the brush." The guide said as his boss watched the animals of the area graze and play.

The boy was waking up and mewling. It had been hours since he had eaten last. He was hungry.

"I hope you starve to death freak." Vernon hissed to the infant as he dumped him onto the ground and he started whimpering. "And your corpse is eaten by the lions.

Current Time...

Kiara growled at the disgusting human. Abandoning an infant who was helpless. She waited until the human jeep left the Pridelands and took the infant into her mouth by its clothes. She carefully carried him back to Pride Rock.

Kovu sniffed the air. His beloved was coming back home. And she was bringing something with her. Dinner perhaps? It smelled young. And...human...

"She didn't." Kovu said. She wouldn't kill a human would she? Her great grandfater prohibited human hunting in the Pride Lands ages before he died.

"Kiara." He nuzzled his mate and Queen in greeting. He then noticed the human infant in her muzzle. "You didn't?"

"Don't be stupid Kovu, I know the laws." Kiara said as she nuzzled her beloved back in return. "He was abandoned by this disgusting human male in the brush. I think he was hoping he would die."

"How do you know-" Kovu started before a little fountain of urine shot up between them. "He's definitely a boy." He recanted his previous question as Kiara giggled.

"So what are we going to do with him? Give him to the local human village?" Kovu suggested as he curled around the infant human who was mewling with hunger.

"Actually." Kiara whispered her idea into the black lion's ear.

"You want to adopt him as our son?" Kovu asked in confusion.

"What's going on?" Simba asked as the aging lion walked up to his daughter and her mate. He saw the human infant between them. "Kiara." He said sternly.

"I know daddy, we're not going to eat him." Kiara said. "We're adopting him."

"Excuse me?" Simba asked.

"He was abandoned daddy." Kiara said as she walked up to her father and planned on buttering him up. "And we need an heir to the throne."

"But a human?" Simba asked skeptically. There was only one member of the pride that had been human. A boy named James. He had been found by a british couple on Safari when he was young and taken away. Simba missed his little brother. That had been years ago. Then he got a good look at the infant. And gasped. It was as if James had been de-aged. He had his same messy hair. But, he had bright green eyes while James had hazel eyes.

Could it be? Simba wondered. He sniffed the infant. He had James's sent alright. But he also had another human's sent on him. A females.

James' son. Simba said to himself in realization. He smiled. But what happened to his little brother? Why wasn't he with his son?

"I think I heard the human name the infant before dumping him." Kiara said thinking back. "He said. Harry James Potter."

It is his son. Simba thought sadly. Something must have happened to him. Well, since his father took in James, he would take in Harry.

"All right, I give my blessings." Simba smiled.

Kovu smiled and laid down next to his new son. "Are any lionesses nursing? I think he's hungry."

"I'll take him." Kiara said. "Vitani's nursing her son I think." She picked him up in her muzzle and carried him into the cave as he squirmed uncomfortably. She sat him down before she got to Vitani who was acting as a wet nurse for other cubs as well.

"Welcome to the family. My son." She nuzzled the mewling infant and kissed his curiously shaped lightning shaped scar.
