I'm actually going to finish this one x3 Set a few years after Simba's Pride.
The Pride Lands were overthrown by a dark, demonic species known as the Beasts, who are believed to be demons in feline-form. They're twice the size of a full-grown tiger, with rippling muscles covered by thick, long black pelts. They have long fangs and massive claws. Are deadly and have mystic powers beyond comprehension. Their over-rule has changed the Pride-lands into a dark, celestial ground full of strange happening and demonic shadow beasts. The Pride was whiped out, only a few survivors remained. It has been a year since the battle, all known survivors are dead, leaving behind new generations to carry out a dark Prophecy...
A small cub scurried up the tree, eyes glowing with determination. It made its way onto its high, sturdy, and relatively charred branches. Faint celestial light glowed through the whispering leaves that rocked gingerly in the thick, choking, humid air. The little cub sat in front of the trees glorious trunk, peering in wonder at it. Covering its dark bark were scribbles of lions, some with manes, some were cubs, some were black, some were gold. The cub stared in awe, and suddenly a voice croaked softly, "The Great Kings of The Past..." The cub whipped around in shock. The only creatures that inhabited this land were shadowy beasts! Surely they wouldn't speak so kindly to a lion, let alone one that should not be living! A lion stood before him. Its mane was long and raggedy, and his fur hung off his slightly muscular form. The cubs jaw dropped. "W-who are you?!" The old lion tilted his head and walked forward, not looking away from the tree. The lion smiled, "Grand, isn't it?" There was a sudden rustle and low hiss. The lion raised his head, he looked at the cub and hissed, "Go, hide!" The cub gasped and scurried up the tree, hiding among the many branches. Two ghastly beasts sauntered onto the branch where the old lion stood. Despite his ragged pelt, scars- most note ably the one across his eye- and poor form(compared to the beasts), the lion stood his ground with head held high, looking like the cub imagined he did as a lion in its prime. The first beast snarled, "Who are-?" It froze, a fierce smirk slid across its ugly muzzle. "Ah, its you! You know, we've searched for your body since the battle, since your beautiful little mate took the beating so that you could escape..." The second one snarled, "And you know what? She died. Your darling mate died, as well as your little brat of a daughter." The first laughed a deep, chesty laugh. "Yeah! Although, she did offer to help kill you and the other pride-members if we let her live..." The lion looked shocked. "No...she wouldn't!" The second laughed. "Yes, yes she would. Now, are we gonna do this this easy way, or the hard way?" The lion growled, "I will not die without a fight." The first smirked and hissed. "Good." There was a battle cry and all three creatures lunged forward. In a matter of seconds the old lion was down, blood trickling from its broken body. The beasts crowed with joy. "Shall we take his body now?"
"No, I want the others to wake up to good food and the last of The Mightys finally gone." With that, the two monsters dispersed. The cub dropped from where he lied and settled beside the lion. Its red eyes opened slowly. "Whats your name?" Asked the cub. "What is yours?"
"Tobiya."
"Ah..."
The lion smiled faintly, "Tobiya...My name is Simba." Tobiya gasped, "King Simba?!" Simba closed his eyes and let his smile drop, he breathed. "Those creatures, they could sense a lion 50 miles away...but you? No. Tobiya, you're the Pride-lands savior...You are the Blessed One the prophecy referred to...You will revive the pride-lands..." Tobiya stepped back, eyes wide. "N-no I..." Strong winds whipped through the branches, rustling the branches and the fur of both lion and cub. The lions body glowed faintly, then brightened. The body was healed, Simba's golden fur shimmered, and his muscles rippled. Tobiya turned to see one of the lions on the trunk glowing and shimmering softly. Tobiya scurried down the tree as the glowing stopped.
He strode across the shadow lands silently. His iridescent eyes flicked upward to see a shooting star slowly glide across the glittering black skies. He smiled faintly as the brilliant ball of silver light stopped, and took its rightful place among the stars...
I love this x'3 I thought it was actually a pretty good starter for the story. This is like a sequel, but I want it to come before the actually story about the battle and everything because I don't know x3. Sometimes chapters will be parts of the battle and stuff that I may not have in the next story, the actually beginning. Is this confusing? Then ignore me, next chapter coming soon!
