Chapter 1
It's been a month since Zira's death & the outlanders joined the pridelanders. Kiara had a new cub on the way, all was well, for most it was anyway. There was one lioness who didn't approve of Simba's ways of leadership, her name was Weusi. She was a pridelander who had joined up shortly after Kiara had been born. She was brown in colour & had maroon eyes. She also had a deep scar down her left front leg where she had been attacked by a pack of hyenas back when she had no home, she had never seen her mother, her father Adui had raised her but was killed by his old pride, he had betrayed them & almost caused the death of their leader. Weusi knew that he had fallen in love with her mother who was from another pride, but she always wondered if this was the real reason behind his death. After her fathers death she felt that she had to leave that pride. She had searched for her mother for months but never found her, she sometimes wondered if her old pride had killed her too. Weusi didn't have a home for the next year, she kept searching for a new pride to join but had no luck until one day, she had seen lots of animals moving towards a odd shaped rock, she had followed them to find out what this was all about. When she reached this odd rock with the other animals, she had seen a baboon holding up a lion cub at a ledge on this rock.
Wesui had pushed to the front of the crowd to see
if there were other lions around, this is when she had bumped into
Njozi, a lioness with golden fur who looked slightly older than
Wesui. "Who are you?" Njozi had asked Weusi.
"I'm Wesui"
she had replied. "I have no home."
"I see, you wish to join
the pridelanders?" Njozi had asked.
"Uh, yeah I guess, if you
don't mind me staying." Replied Weusi.
"Well as you can see,
there is a major event happening right now, & only our leader,
Simba, can decide whether you stay or go, he will be able to talk to
you later today." Njozi had told Weusi.
"Ok, if you don't
mind me asking, what is this major event?" Asked Weusi
curiously.
"The ceremony for the birth of the new princess,
Kiara." Njozi replied.
"Ah, that's good then. I'll come
back in a few hours to talk to this Simba." Wesui said before
walking off to the outskirts of the pridelands to take a nap.
Later that day, Weusi had returned to the weird rock & talked to Simba, who was very interested in Weusi's past & asked her many questions. After Simba had thought for a while, Weusi was accepted into the pride & made good friends with Nala over the years, but she also grew to dislike Simba, he seemed bossy & not very friendly towards her, she didn't hate him, she just didn't like his ways of leadership or his personality. Weusi lived a good life in the pridelands, but over time craved more action than just the hunting party, she was growing very bored of doing the same thing everyday.
Just then, Weusi was interrupted from her thoughts
by Vitani, who had come to tell Weusi that Kiara had finally given
birth to her & Kovu's first cub. She made her was over to pride
rock with Vitani & saw Kiara & Kovu sitting together at the
entrance of the cave, a newborn cub between Kiara's paws. "Hello
Kiara, hello Kovu!" Vitani & Weusi both said.
"I can see
your morning has been very uneventful." Vitani said in a sarcastic
voice.
"Yes, not much happened here, just the birth of a new cub
& all." Kovu replied grinning.
The cub was a slightly
lighter shade of brown than Kovu was, he had green eyes & looked
allot like his father. Just as Weusi & Vitani were looking at the
newborn cub & taking in his appearance, Simba & Nala came up
pride rock to where the others were sitting. "Good morning &
congratulations!" Simba said to Kovu & Kiara.
"He's
beautiful, good morning to all of you." Nala said as she took a
seat next to her daughter.
"So what is he going to be
named?" Asked Simba.
"Monu" Kiara replied.
"Very nice
name" Said Simba smiling towards Monu. The others nodded in
agreement.
10 minutes passed while the lions chatted, then Rafiki
walked into the cave. He said hello to the group & then walked
towards the newborn cub. "What have you decided to name him?"
Rafiki asked Kiara & Kovu.
"Monu" Kovu told Rafiki.
"Good
choice" Rafiki replied. Rafiki then picked up Monu & took him
to the end of pride rock before holding him up for the creatures of
the pridelands to see. There was a huge cheer that rang out through
the pridelands as the animals bowed to their future king. Rafiki then
lowered Monu, smiling at Kovu & Kiara, who were standing next to
him. They smiled back & Kiara took Monu in her mouth back to the
cave, where Vitani & Weusi bowed to the three of them.
