Hello all, and welcome to my new story! When you are finished reading, PLEASE DO NOT FORGET TO LEAVE ME A REVIEW! I will try to update as much as I possibly can, but it might not be every day. I will answer all questions at the beginning of the chapter. Well, I have done enough blabbing, so without further ado, here is the first chapter!

DISCLAIMER: I OWN NOTHING

"You're almost there Nala, just keep pushing!"

The young, blue-eyed grimaced as she pushed. Soon, she felt a massive release, and her immense pain began to cease slightly. It was then when she heard the voice of her mother again.

"You have a son."

However, the comment went unanswered as the sharp pains returned, and Nala once again began to scream in a combination of pain and terror. The pains were much more intense, but they did not last quite as long, and eventually, the feeling of release returned. Nala sighed in relief, as her mother began to speak again.

"You have a daughter."

The young lioness narrowed her eyes, and looked at the two cubs in spite. "They're alive! After all the times I have cut my stomach, after all I have done for a miscarriage, THEY ARE ALIVE?"

Sarafina sighed, having expected a reaction such as the one she had just heard. "Nala, what Scar did to you was vile and horrible, but you cannot take your anger out on these two little ones. Remember, they are your cubs as much as they are Scar's."

Nala spat at her mother. "It's even more pointless now. He's already selected Kovu as his heir. Do me a favor and kill them!"

Sarabi now entered the den, a disgusted expression on her slowly aging face. "Nala, I am ashamed of you. These cubs are innocent! What would Mheetu think if he saw his big sister acting like this?"

"When he hears about what happened, HE WILL AGREE WITH ME!"

Sarafina sighed, before holding up the male cub. His eyes began to open, revealing their emerald green color. "Nala, what do you want to name your son?"

The young lioness grimaced, and then shuffled her paws slightly before responding. "Hamaru."

Both of the older lionesses recoiled in horror, and Sarabi spoke again. "You named him Bastard? Nala, the cub has done nothing wrong, please change the name!"

Nala responded through gritted teeth, narrowing her eyes at Sarabi. "You can't make me do anything. The name stands."

A single tear began to flow down Sarafina's cheek as she held up Nala's daughter, who opened her blue eyes. "Nala, what do you want to name your daughter?"

"Shetani."

Sarabi shook her said sadly. "That's what I expected. Simba and Mufasa are probably horrified."

"DON'T MENTION THOSE NAMES IN FRONT OF ME!"

Sarabi and Sarafina shared a knowing glance, before both of their faces contorted into worried expressions, as Mheetu walked into the den.

Mheetu was seven months old, the age Simba had been at the time of the gorge. His coat was a pale gold, and his chocolate brown eyes were excited at the prospect of becoming an uncle.

"Are you all right Nala?"

The young lioness sneered. "Define alright.'

Sarabi shot Nala a glare, and the blue-eyed mother sighed. "I'm fine, Mheetu. As fine as you can be when you have just given birth to two heathens."

"Nala, why don't you like your own cubs?"

Sarafina looked at her son, a depressed expression on her face. "Because Scar is the father."

Mheetu's eyes widened in limited understanding, before his eyes narrowed slightly as well. "Wow Nala, that's pretty cold."

Nala rolled her eyes as her little brother began to speak once again. "What are their names?'

"The male is Hamaru and the female is Shetani."

Mheetu sighed in disgust, before responding dryly. "Bastard and devil. How LOVELY."

Sarafina turned to her young son in shock as he rolled his eyes. "Mom, I'm not a two month old anymore. I know what all of this stuff means."

His mother nodded in understanding as Mheetu glared at his older sister. "Well Nala, I frankly disagree with your name choices, but they are your cubs. If their mother wont give them the proper care they need, their grandmother and their uncle WILL!"

Sarafina's eyes widened. "Who is this mature lion and what did he do with Mheetu?"

The seven month old shrugged, and stomped out of the room. Sarafina and Sarabi each took one of Nala's cubs, fearing for their safety, and followed the young male out of the den and into the Shadowlands. As they walked out, they could clearly hear Nala screaming behind them.

"HAS EVERYBODY DECIDED THAT THEY ARE GOING TO TURN AGAINST ME? IF NOBODY ELSE CAN SEE THAT THOSE TWO CUBS ARE A DISGRACE TO THE KINGS, I MINE AS WELL LEAVE THE PRIDELANDS! MAYBE I'LL FIND SOME ROUGE WILLING TO PUT AN END TO THEIR PATHETIC EXISTENCE!"

Mheetu turned to look back quickly before turning back around and shaking his head sadly. "That is not my sister. That is some other lioness that took control."

Sarabi nodded her head in agreement. "We have to find some way to bring back the old Nala."

Sarafina's eyes widened with an idea. "Why don't we talk to Rafiki about this? Maybe he will have some herb to make her less angry!"

Mheetu curled his ears back before nodding sadly. "I hope so Mom. I hope so."

The trio turned towards the large tree the mandrill called home, leaving a crazed lioness behind at Pride Rock, desperately trying to find a way to murder her own children.

Well, I think that that is going to be all that I am going to write for now. As I previously mentioned, PLEASE DO NOT FORGET TO LEAVE ME A REVIEW. I will try to have the next chapter posted as soon as I possibly can. Well readers, until next time, I'm signing off. Thank y'all so much for reading!
