Lion king

The tale of Mafanikio

Chapter one. The awakening of the lion.

Darkness and muffled voices, that's all he can hear. He tried to open his eyes, but they felt like they have been glued together. When he finally opened his eyes, his vision was filled with lots of burred colours. After focusing, he noticed the burred colours actually were faces of many lionesses. His body hurting, his head spinning, he looked around. He lay in a brightly lit den, paintings covered the walls around him.

"How are you feeling?" came a voice. He looked to his left to see a beautiful lioness stood next to him. She had purple eyes, pale cream like fur coved her slender body.

"Err..fine", he crocked, his voice wasn't recognisable.

"I understand you're confused. You've been in a coma for two months…", before the purple eyed lioness could continue, she was interrupted by a growl from behind him.

He looked up to see a large lion standing in the entrance on the den. He had a large muscular build, dark green eyes. His powerful body supported a long, thick brown mane and cream fur.

The large male snarled, "I am king Hatua, May I asked a few questions rogue", it sounded more like a demand.

"Ok", that all he could say.

The large lion strolled up to him and sat in front of him, the brown maned lion's eyes remanded on him through all the slow process of the movement.

"Who are you and where have you come from?" the lion growled.

He opened his mouth to speak, that was when he found that he actually has no idea who he was.

"I..I don't know", he found himself stuttering. He thought harder and harder, there was no memory of who he is and where he came from.

The lion in front of him, looked him up and down before speaking, "any other circumstances I would not believe you, but as you suffer from serious head injuries I would be more likely to believe your current statement lion", the lion announced, "for now I will save judgment until you recover physically. As for you memories, I shall leave that to the great kings of the past. As for now lion, I shall name you Mafanikio". I lion smiled before leaving the den.
