The sun rose over the African Savannah and the songs of birds could be heard from all around. This was a new day, a day for fresh beginnings and a day for new challenges in life. Speaking of new beginnings, today was the first day of King Kovu and Queen Kiara's reign. The previous King, King Simba and his Queen called Nala decided to retire. Kovu was the first awake like usual. He streched his musclely body and let out a massive yawn. I wonder what could of happened if I followed in my mother's and Scar's pawprints Kovu thought, I would of never been King, and most importantly, I wouldn't be with the love of my life Kiara and...and, suddenly Kovu heard a voice behind him.
It was Kiara, she also let out a loud yawn
"Kovu, can we go and see Rafiki please?" she said excitedly.
"Why so excited?" Kovu replied, but he himself had ideas, Kiara had been complaning of pains in her stomach and generally feeling under the weather.
"We better get going then" he later added. They soon arrived at Rafiki's tree and the wise old shayman examined Kiara.
"I have news for you chile, you are expecting, two little lions are in that belly!" Rafiki said happily.
"Oh my god, Kovu, your going to be a dad" Kiara said in shock. Kovu needed telling twice, he was in pure shock. Finally when it sunk in he said,
"Kiara, never mind me being a dad, your going to be a mother!" he finally said excitedly.
A while after, they left Rafiki's tree and rushed home to tell the news. Kovu gathered everyone together and then Kiara shouted,
"I'm pregnant!" Everyone cried in happiness and then they heard the next bit of news,
"However, I have not one but two cubs on the way!" she added. Another cheer was let out and then the whole group of lions started chatting excitedly. Simba and Nala then approched Kiara. Simba said,
"Congratulations Kiara, and the fact you have two cubs, even better!"
"Yes, congrats darling" Nala also said.
"Thank you Dad, thank you Mum" she replied.
Simba then approched Kovu, Kovu turned towards him and said,
"I can't believe I'm going to be a father!"
"It'll sink in", Simba giggled,"Being a Dad is one of the most amazing things that has ever happened to me!" he added. Soon the celebration was over and Kovu and Kiara retired to the cave. Both had the same thought at that time, I can't believe I'm going to be a parent! But now the thing is, when will I/she give birth?
That was an eventful first chapter! Well I would call it an introduction really because it wasn't very long. Anyway when you review, please don't be to harsh because this is my first story. Thank You.
