Hello fellow authors and readers! I got the idea for this story while I was watching The Lion King 1 1/2 and thought it was a great idea. The beggining is short I know but it's supposed to kinda be a prolouge. you'll see what I mean. Just SCROLL DOWN, READ, AND REVIEW! Happy reading!

It was an amazing day in the Pride Lands. The sun was shining, the giraffes were grazing, and the sky was a beautiful shade of cerulean. Simba was lying in the center of the hollow in Pride Rock. He stirred in his sleep as his vision continued…

-FLASH-

Simba saw himself as a cub watching his father fall to his death.

"NOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!" his younger self screamed.

-FLASH-

He saw his mother getting belted by Scar in front of the Hyenas.

-FLASH-

He saw his mother's eyes close slowly and her head rest on the ground as her chest heaved in for the last time. Simba roared in anguish as he took his right forepaw off his mother's chest and slammed it onto the ground.

-FLASH-

He saw himself lounging with Pumbaa in the hot spring.

-FLASH-

He saw Pumbaa walking through the grass. Sad, and...alone.

-FLASH-

He saw 2 warthogs, one male and one female, that he did not recognize, holding a baby warthog, both with tears in their eyes.

-FLASH-

He saw the same warthogs placing their baby in a river, belly-side up. The baby bawled as he floated away from the parents. They were waving good-bye, their eyes also brimming with tears.

-FLASH-

He saw those same parents walking together toward Pride Rock, but they seemed slower- older perhaps.

-FLASH-

He saw them heading in the direction of the Elephant Graveyard.

-FLASH-

He saw them running from hyenas.

-FLASH-

He saw them backed into a corner by at least 25 of the horrid beasts.

-FLASH-

He saw those same hyenas, plus about 100 more inside Scar's old lair, chewing on the bones of 2 warthogs. The image faded and everything went black...

Simba's eyes shot open as he leapt up to his full height on all four paws, panting heavily & looking all around.

"What is it Simba? Is something wrong?" Nala asked, opening one eye half way.

"It's... nothing... I'm fine. Just a bad dream." Simba said, hoping to avoid any further questions.

"Ok, if you say so, but go back to sleep. You need the rest." Nala said, falling back to sleep.

Simba, looked around the hollow, noticing Kiara curled up next to Kovu's belly fur. He looked out the opening to the hollow. Seeing it was still dark he decided she was right. He laid down,

"Man, not another one. They seem so real though..."

He said as he drifted back off to sleep...

Well theres the first chapter, I know it sound kind of mysterious but that was how i meant it...and in case anyone could not tell, that scene with Sarabi dieing was in the past not future...Please Review!
