Author's Note:Yes it's another rewritten story but this is one of my favorite stories that I started. I have chosen this story to update next and I need to start over. So those who have not read the original, this is AU of the Lion King and a Lion King version of Sofia the first.

A light cream cub with pale blue eyes laid under a large tree. The tree leaned as the leaves towered down. Giving a nice amount of shade. Her auburn tail tuff swished back and forth as she laid her head on her white paw. A sigh escaped her white muzzle as she continue to look out into the savannah. Soon her ears perked at the sound of rustling. Her pale blue eyes soon met a pair of light blue orbs. The cub stood with a smile until the light blue eyes came behind the tall grass and showed a pale cream lioness.

"No kill again?"

The lioness shook her head sadly before she nuzzled the cub. "No, Skye...I didn't."

A depress sigh left the cub's muzzle. Which made the lioness sigh."Why don't we go to sleep. Maybe we'll get lucky tomorrow."

The cub nodded and followed her mother back to under the tree. Where she curled up at her mother's stomach. With a deep sigh, mother and daughter went to sleep with empty bellies.

~O~

A large golden lion sat under a small tree, around the tree was blue and lavender flowers. By his chestnut color paws, sat two golden cubs. Who had tears falling from their amber eyes. One cub had brown tuff on his head as the other had a brown tail tuff. The lion's red mane blew gently in the after noon breeze as tears fell from his orange eyes.

"Simba..."

The lion looked from the tree to his left and seen a light beige lioness with orange eyes.

"It's time...I know it hurts. But it's time to go."

The lion sighed before looking down and sighed, "I know...Amani. I know."

The lioness smiled lightly before looking at the cubs. "Kopa...Kiara."

Slowly the cubs lift their heads and looked at the orange eye lioness."Want to come with me? I caught your favourite. Zebra."

The cubs looked at the lion who smiled and nodded. "Go with Auntie Amani."

With a sigh the cubs nuzzled their father's leg before getting up and following their aunt. Simba watched them go before looking back at the tree."Why did you have to go, Nala?!"

Sniffing up some tears, the golden lion got up and headed the way his sister and cubs went. To a large speck in the distance. As the lion headed home rain started to pour. Matting his golden fur and red mane. He climbed rocky slope before making a right into a cave where he shook his fur and mane dry.

"Simba, are you sure you're alright?" asked dark beige lioness with orange eyes.

Next to her was a dark cream lioness with light green eyes. Simba sighed before looking at his mother and mother in-law.

"I'll be ok. Did our other friends get here?"

The dark cream lioness nodded. "King Malka and Queen Kula are here with Prince Kovu."

Simba nodded, "Thank you, Sarafina."

The two lionesses watched the king walk further into the cave with sad expressions.

"He's going to need all the help he can get." sighed the dark beige lioness.

Sarafina nodded before looking out the cave, to the dark, stormy sky."Nala...my daughter, please watch over them."
