THE UNKNOWN BROTHER
SYNOPSIS:
Simba's young daughter Kiara is playful, and likes adventure. But her father is so strict that she can barely get out of Pride Rock, without her babysitters Timon and Pumbaa watching her every move. She finally gets irritated and complains to Pumbaa about how she can never be on her own. He accidentally mentions a name he isn't allowed to say. She eventually asks her mother who the mentioned one is; and she tells her the story of her unknown brother, and finds out that her father wasn't always that strict.
CHAPTER ONE: SIMBA THE STRICT
NOTE: I DO NOT OWN TLK.
Kiara wakes up very early, even before the sun rose in the sky. She goes off to the main platform of Pride Rock, and looks over the Pridelands.
"Whoa" she gasps," That's beautiful"
She suddenly remembers her father's promise to take her to the top of Pride Rock. She runs off to the den, accidentally stepping on the lionesses.
"Sorry!"
She goes off and tries to wake up her father.
"Daddy!"
"Your daughter's awake" Nala groaned.
"Before sunrise, she's your daughter" Simba groaned, showing no plans of getting up.
"DADDY!" Kiara pouted biting his ear, "YOU PROMISED"
"Simba" Nala sighed, "You did promise to take her up to the top of the rock "
"Okay, okay" Simba yawned, "I'm up"
"Yay!" Kiara smiled.
They both headed over to the top of Pride Rock, just in time for the sunrise.
"Look Kiara," Simba smiled, "everything the light touches, is our kingdom"
Kiara turned her head to a dark part of the lands.
"What about that daddy?" she asked.
"The Outlands" Simba sighed, "that is no longer part of our premises. And you are not allowed to go there".
"Why not?"
"Never mind"
"But daddy!"
Zazu suddenly came flying above them.
"Sire" he said," There're outsiders, in the Pridelands!"
"Zazu, take Kiara to the den," Simba instructed," I'll handle the outsiders"
"Daddy can I come with you?" Kiara pleaded.
"No Kiara it's too dangerous" Simba replied, "go with Zazu"
Simba then runs off.
"He never lets me go anywhere with him" Kiara pouted.
"I'm afraid he is right."Zazu reassured her," a fight between your father and the outsiders is too dangerous for a young cub like you."
"It's just no fair Zazu"
"If it makes you feel any better your highness, your father felt the exact same way when he was still a cub; his father never brought him to that kind of stuffs either."
Kiara finally got annoyed, and frustrated.
"Can we please just go back to the den?"
"Yes, your highness"
They both headed back to the den.
"Kingly duties again?" Nala asked as she saw her daughter disappointed.
"They always ruin my fun with dad" Kiara pouted.
"Well, what do you think would happen if your dad didn't do all those duties?" Nala asked.
"He'll have more time for me" Kiara answered.
"And what about the kingdom?" Nala asked, "If he didn't do his duties, the outsiders would invade us, the hyenas would be roaming the kingdom, there would be a drought, and a famine"
Kiara felt guilty all of a sudden.
"If he didn't do all his duties, we would go back to the Scar regime" Zazu added.
"Would you want that to happen to you young lady?" Nala said.
"No" Kiara bellowed.
"Good. Now stay here, while the other lionesses and I hunt for your breakfast. Okay?" Nala smiled.
"Yes mom" Kiara smiled back.
"Timon, Pumbaa, watch over Kiara while I go hunting" Nala called out.
"Our pleasure Nala" Timon smiled.
[LATER THAT DAY]
"Dad! Can I go out and play?" Kiara asked humbly.
"Sure"
"YAY! THANKS DADDY!"
"Your welcome. As long as Timon and Pumbaa come with you"
"Why?"
"They're your babysitters, it's their job to"
"Why do they have to come with me?"
"Because I don't want you getting hurt"
"I can handle myself you know!"
"I'm not taking any chances Kiara. It's either take them with you, or never go out at all!"
"But dad!"
"That's final Kiara! It's your choice"
"You are so unfair"
Simba got irritated and let out a loud roar.
"I am your father, and you do what I say!"
Tears formed in Kiara's eyes.
"Y-y-you've never r-roared at me before"
Tears rolled down her cheek.
"Kiara"
Kiara ran outside the den.
"Kiara! I'm sorry!"
She was out of sight, and there wasn't a chance that she heard him.
"Timon! Pumbaa!" Simba called out.
Pumbaa came over with Timon on his back.
"What is it Simba?" Timon asked worringly.
"I kind of roared at Kiara, and she ran off" Simba sighed.
"Well, would it make you feel better if we looked for her?" Pumbaa suggested.
"Yeah" Simba said, smiling a little.
"Don't worry Simba, she'll be okay" Timon reassured him.
"Nothing bad's gonna happen this time" Pumbaa added," if she stays in the pride lands".
"If only she knew why I have to be like this to her" Simba sighed.
