A LION THING BY SERENA SHUMAKER

Once there was a lion named kovu.
And another lion who Kovu really hated,
his name is Kendall. He used to go out with

his wife, and he also had a cub with his wife.
Kovu's wife is named Serena. Kendall had a daughter named Raina. She has white and gray fur. She is still a cub with a big adventurous life. She is also smart and irre-
sistible to every male adult and cub.

KOVU-"Raina your filfy!
Didn't your mom just clean you?" RAINA-"yeah but, I wanted to go and make new friends daddy! PLEASE can you not tell mom PLEASE!" KOVU-"How do you think your mom is going to give you a bath"
RAINA-"Can't you clean me? PLEASE!
I'll do anything not to get in trouble"
KOVU-" I would but that is a mother's job"
he explains.
RAINA-"Can't I just go to the water hole and take a bath"
KOVU-"Oh, OK but its just our little secret,
OK" he said in a hushed voice.
RAINA-"OK"
So on her way to the water hole Kendall shows up and tries to watch the commotion but it was to late her mom already got there.
So when she got there she says SERENA-"hi honey, what are u doing"
RAINA-"just taking alittle swim"
SERENA-"well when you are done come straight home OK"
RAINA-"yes mom"
she says disappointedly.So while Serena leaves Raina was still in the water Kendall comes up and said KENDALL-"hey Raina RAINA-"my I ask who the heck you are"
KENDALL-"my name is Kendall. I'm your father"
RAINA-"no you aren't, my dad is Kovu"
KENDALL-"no i am your dad, Kovu just took over"
RAINA-"MOM!" yelled, running to her mother SERENA-" what happened Raina"
RAINA-'' there was a lion that said he was my dad"
SERENA-" what was his name?" worrying if it was Kendall.
RAINA-"he said his name was Kendall"
SERENA-" WHAT?! KOVU!"Serena yelled Kovu runs over (wondering)
KOVU-"WHAT! WHOA!" (falling from running to fast)
SERENA-(whispering in his ear)"she knows about Kendall"
KOVU-(eyes widen)"HOW"
