Hello all, and welcome to my story! I hope that all of you enjoy reading this as much as I enjoy writing it. PLEASE DON'T FORGET TO LEAVE A REVIEW! Anyway, I have done enough blabbing, so on to the story!

Background information, courtesy of the United States Database:

In 2217, the all of the nations of Africa joined together to form the African Union in the hopes of garnering more global prestige. The government was a fragile republic, and it was unable to control the continent. After twelve years, military general Paul Nabatu led a coup that overthrew the republic. He established an ultra-nationalist military junta, and ruled the country with an iron fist. The African Union soon became a military superpower, with 60% of its citizens in the armed forces. Human rights abuses became commonplace, horrifying the developed world. Three years after the coup, the USA led a coalition of itself, the United Kingdom, Germany, Poland, France, Denmark, Norway, Sweden, Turkey, Spain, Italy, Greece, Israel, Australia, South Korea, and Japan in a military invasion of Africa. Two years later, Nabatu was captured and executed for crimes against humanity. Three vital military bases, Fort Russell, Fort Parker, and Ocean City became metropolises, and they joined them and the surrounding areas around them into America's 51st state, called American Africa. The remainder of the continent was left too weak to form their own nations, so they fell under the jurisdiction of the United States Military. Not only did the US govern and manage the continent, they also ran frequent anti-poacher operations, causing the industry to decline slightly.

In the plains of the Savannah, with the animals living out their lives, and large trees dominating areas of the landscape, a lone vehicle was traveling through the region. A large Ford truck tugging a mobile home barreled through the region, leaving track marks wherever it went.

Inside the vehicle, sat twin brothers, both of them with brown hair and blue eyes, but with different facial structures and hairstyles. The man in the passenger seat had his hair buzzed, and heavy stubble as facial hair. A large map that he was holding in the air shrouded his face. He turned to his brother, who was driving, and began to speak.

"Tim, are you sure that you got everything we need?"

"Yes Cody, we've been over this like, seven times."

"Laptop?"

"Yes."

"iPhone?"

Tim held out is iPhone 44, and sighed in annoyance.

"Yes Cody, I have that too."

Cody was about to ask another question when Tim interrupted him. "I also have my money, my assault rifle, our refrigerator, the TV, and even our own Wi-Fi generator!"

"Okay, okay! No need to act like a bitch!"

"Sorry Cody."

"Hey, it ain't any issue, bro!"

The brothers chuckled to themselves at their bantering. Tim leaned to his left, and then spoke. "Hey! Seems like there is a large rock structure over there. Want to live under that? It would provide quite a bit of shade for the trailer."

Cody leaned over to have a look for himself. "Yeah, that's good reasoning. Decent plan. A little nervous though, I mean, we're deciding where we are going to live for God knows how long!"

"Ha-ha! Now that you mention it, I'm a bit nervous myself!"

The brothers one again chuckled to themselves, and they directed their trailer towards the large rock structure.

Mufasa, king of the Pridelands, sat in the middle of the pride's den, resting after a long day of ruling the kingdom. He sighed, as his mate, Sarabi, walked in and sat right beside him, and then nuzzled him affectionately.

"Mufasa, I have great news!"

"And what would that be?"

"Well, I was just at Rafiki's…"

"And?"

"Well, he told me that I am with cub!"

"That's fantastic news! I'm so happy!"

"What do you think its name should be?"

"Well, if it's a boy, I think that his name would be Simba!"

"I like it! And what about if we have a little girl?"

"How about Sasha?"

"I could go for that! Well, we'll just have to wait until I give birth!"

"Yup."

It was then that a blue hornbill with streaks of red on his wings flew into the den in an absolute frenzy, his eyes gleaming with absolute worry.

"You have news, Zazu?"

"Indeed sire! The cheetahs have reported that a giant monster was spotted in the Pridelands, and that it is heading right for Pride Rock!"

Mufasa stood up quickly upon hearing the news, his face showing the great fear that he had at that very moment. He turned to his mate, and then spoke. "Sarabi, tell the cubs to get back in the den along with the lionesses, and tell them to stay there until I say that it is safe to come out."

"Yes Mufsasa, I'll go right now!"

The king nodded, and then turned to his most trusted advisor. "Zazu, you are with me. We're going to confront this monster head on."

Zazu nodded. "Yes sire…wait, what?"

"Come on Zazu, we are leaving at once!"

The small hornbill began to shiver uncontrollably as he followed the king out of the den and directly in the path of the monster, which was now in view.

Well, that is going to be all for now! PLEASE don't forget to tell me what you thought in the reviews! I will try to have the next chapter up whenever I can! Well, until then, goodbye, and thank you for reading!
