Young Simba's Adventures

Simba visits the watering hole
Young Simba had been born fairly recently, but he was now able to walk on his own. One night, a terrible storm hit. There were loud crashes and thundering rain. Young Simba hid and whimpered, huddled between his father and mother in their small den. Simba's mother sang him a soft lullaby and he shortly fell asleep.
When he awoke the next day, his parents were still sleeping. He tried to stand and walk away, but was unsuccessful. His parents were squeezing him into a Simba sandwich. He decided to try to charge out. He shot forward with all of the power he could. It was far easier than he had expected, and he shot out of the den and off of the edge of Pride Rock. Simba yelled as he descended toward the ground below. Luckily, Zazu was alert and caught him just before he touched the ground. Zazu then flew Simba back up to his parents, who upon hearing Simba's screams, had woke up. The both breathed a sigh of relief when they saw that he was safe.
"I caught the little fellow just in the nick of time" boasted Zazu.
"Thank you Zazu" said Mufasa. Zazu bowed and was about to leave the cave when Mufasa stopped him.
"Zazu, would you take Simba to the watering hole today?" he asked. Zazu sighed and then agreed to do so. So, with Simba on his back, Zazu flew off in the direction of the watering hole.
