A/N: New Story! What does that cub Roka want with Nala? Well, the only way to find out is to read the story! Simba really isn't going to like him, that's a guarantee... Please Review! :)


Chapter 1: You're Coming Back

"Woah! Hold on a second!" Simba said, getting between Roka and Nala. "You're not taking her anywhere!"

"Oh, yes I am." Roka told him, getting frustrated. "She doesn't have a choice."

"What do you want with her?" Simba asked.

"We were betrothed." Roka answered. "She's coming back so we can get married."

Nala was glaring at him. "Roka, I told you before, I don't love you and I never will." she said. "Now, leave."

"How can you not love me?" he asked. "I'm awesome and good looking!"

Simba rolled his eyes, he had had enough of this. "I'm going to have to ask you to leave." Simba said to him. "Now."

"Who are you to tell me what to do?" Roka asked.

"I happen to be the Prince, buddy." Simba replied. "And her boyfriend."

"Oh, I'm sorry...but she already has a prince." Roka said, not really meaning it. "She's coming with me."

"How are you going to make me?" Nala challenged.

"I don't need to, because if you don't my father will come here himself and see to it that you come back." Roka said. "So, what will it be? Will you come with me willingly, or would you rather have my father and the rest of the pride deal with it, which would almost certainly cause a conflict between the prides."

Nala didn't know what to do. She really didn't want to get married to Roka, but she also didn't want to put anyone else in danger. Simba walked over to her and whispered in her ear. "Go." he told her. "We'll rescue you."

"So? What's your answer?" Roka asked.

"Fine. I'll go back." Nala sighed.

"That's what I thought." Roka said. "Let's go. The wedding will be tomarrow."

Roka led Nala out of the Pridelands and back to his pride. He had won.

"What are we gonna do?" Kora asked. "You do realize if we rescue her, they'll just come back to get her."

"We'll worry about that later," Simba said, "but right now, we have to save her. That creep can't marry her, he's way too... well, creepy!"

"How do we get there?" Tora asked.

"I can get us there." Mheetu said. "It's not too far."

"How long will it take us to get there?" Kora asked.

Mheetu had a nervous smile on his face. "You know... only... six hours..."

"Great... but we don't have a choice." Simba said. "We'll leave tonight, after everyone's asleep."

"Won't Nala's mother wonder where she is tonight?" Kula asked. "If she's suddenly gone it'll look suspicious."

"I'll just say that... um... she's upset and wanted to be alone, or something like that. We obviously can't tell the truth, the last thing we need is a war between the prides." Simba answered.

They all agreed on the plan, so in the morning, everyone would think that they just got up early. They waited out the rest of the day. Simba wasn't about to just let Roka take Nala like that. He would kill him if he had to.


It was getting late in the day when Roka and Nala got back to his pride, the Lake Pride. "How's it feel to be back home?" Roka asked.

"Like sitting on a colony of fire ants..." she muttered.

"Come, we must go see my father." Roka said as he led her into a den. "Dad! I found her!" he exclaimed as they walked in. A dark brown lion with a black mane and white paws approached them. "Nala, it's nice to see you again." He said to her. "So, you've finally decided to marry my son?"

"Y-yes." she said reluctantly.

"Good." the king said. "Tomarrow you will become the princess of this pride. You two go and play or something."

"Let's go, Nala." Roka said. She followed him out of the den, she really hoped Simba and the others would get there before the wedding tomarrow...

"So, Nala." Roka said, "What do you want to do?"

"Die." she answered.

"Oh, don't be like that." he said, pulling her a little closer to him. "We could make out."

Nala raised a paw and slapped him in the face, drawing some blood with her claws. "There's only one cub allowed to kiss me, and it isn't you!" she growled at him.

"Heh... You can't deny that you love me." he said, ignoring the burning pain on his face,

"I think I can." Nala said. "Now, just leave me alone." She walked away from Roka, she didn't want to be anywhere near him. She walked over to the lake that was near the den, she lied down by the edge of the water and closed her eyes to take a nap. Please hurry, Simba. She thought to herself before falling asleep. She just hoped that it was all a dream and that she would wake up back in the Pridelands. She really didn't want to be here, especially after what the king had put her family through...


A/N: Boy, Roka sure is a creep, isn't he? No wonder why Nala never loved him... What did the king put her family through? It must have been pretty bad if it forced them to leave. What will happen when Simba and the others get there? Hopefully nothing bad, but you're not getting any answers now. :P Well, the next chapter will be up tomarrow. Remember to Review! Thank You!
