Uru was playing with her firends at the top of pride rock. She was the princess and daughter of the great king of the pride lands , Mahotu. She had tan coloured fur and bright green eyes. She among the pride was recongize-even as a cub-for her beauty. Besides her name did mean diamond. And she was a diamond, the diamond of the pride. She was beautiful, advantageous, kind, and most of all loving. She really was a beauty.

" Hey , Uru wait up!" Her friend, Naima, called after her. She was really slow and did not know how to keep her stride. But she was calm and looked as if she was having as much fun as Uru, did. She was a reddish-brown cub with blue eyes. She was one of Uru's best friend.

" Naima, I thought the point of tag was to not wait up!" Uru said. She was laughing she had so much fun palying with her firend. But she forgot about her other firend that was hidding just behind the tree in front of her.

Wham! Uru was hit by something hard. She was now flat on her back and was pinned by a cub.

" Haha! Hey Uru why looking so down Huh?" the cub above her said. He was a mapley colour with white outlining his eyes.

" Hey, Jamil want ot let me up?" Uru said. Jamil was one of her other best friends. Though she sometimes preferred to be with Naima, Jamil was the fun adventrous one. Where as Naima was not. Plus he was always kind and funny. That was why Jamil was her other best friend.

"Oh, sorry." He quickly said.

" Aw, you two just had a moment didn't you?" Naima rolled her eyes and Jamil looked at her as if she was crazy. But he walked over to her and whispered something in her ear, that made her giggle and blush.

Uru loved her friends, but sometimes she got a little jelous. Jamil and Naima would sometimes just go off on their own and not invite her. She could tell that her friends had a crush on each other , they just didn't want to admit it.

" What ever Naima." Uru said.

Uru then walked over to the edge of priderock. She looked over her farther's kingdom. She could see from the gorge in the west to the elephannt grave yard in the east. But something caught her eye. There was a lion cub walking towards priderock. He looked about her age. He had golden fur and dark brown tuff ontop of his head.

Suddenley he collasped, it looked as if he fainted. Uru was really worried she hoped he wasn't hurt or anything. In the backround Jamil and Naima were still talking and giggling.

" Hey , we need to get down priderock right now!"

" Why?"

"Naima , I saw a stray cub walking towards priderock and he just collapsed! You can come with me or stay I don't care!"

Uru didn't wait for an answer. She rushed down priderock and took off running. All that was going through her head was ' I have to get to him' ! She didn't have to run very far. Soon she found the mysterious cub. He was definietly more gorgeous up close. His golden fur shined in the hot african sun. His tuff of brown hair was smooth and complemented his fur perfectly. There was no hair out of place , even though it was clear he has been running for a while.

" Hey you okay?" Uru said as she poked the new cub.

After a minute the cube opened his eyes. Uru was shocked with what she saw...His eyes. His eyes were a soft orangey-brown. They sparkeled and were memorizing.

" Who are you?" the cub asked.

" I am princess Uru. I am the daughter of King Mohatu, the king of the pridelands. What is your name?"

The younge cub eyes widen when he heard, she was the princess of the ignored the question." Can you take me to your farther, please?"

"Why?"

" Because i would like to join your pride. My pride was destoyed..." He had to take a moment. Uru even saw a small tear at the cronor of his eye." By an attack of rouges. They killed all grown male adults. They killed my farther the former king, of the mountain pride. His name was Abioya. The lionesses were force to hunt for the king. Everything he said was the law. But he was above the law. The other rouges that helped him were soon killed. The lionesses lived in the guest den. The cubs were force to live apart of another cave which was not apart of the main one. Also we weren't allowed to see our mothers more than once a day."

Uru felt like crying. He was forced out of his home. His friends and other young cubs in the pride were forced to live in a separate den away from their mothers. His farther was killed. And he was homeless. He was probally only a couple of days older then herself. It was terrible to watch.

" Then why aren't you with the other cubs in the pride? And why did you decide to come to the pridelands"

" A couple of weeks ago I was banished. The new ' king' thought I was a threat. I don't blame him I was. I was even starting to plan how to destroy him. As I was traveling I talk to some animals and ask what pride would be the best to go to. Every single one of them said priderock. The said the Pride Land's king was the fairest and wises of all. I didn't know what they meant by that at all. But now i do. You helped me even though you didn't know me for that i am in your debt."

" Your not in my debt. I saw you and you needed helped. Thats all." She said. " Follow me and i will take you to my farther. Oh by the way I didn't get your name."

" My name is Ahadi." he said. Then he continued to walk to priderock with a determine look on his face.
