Hello Lion King Fans! First of all, I would like to thank superstarampharos and GuardianSaint for reviewing. It means a lot. Anyway, I actually have a question for you all. Which Lion King was your favorite? 1, 1 and 1/2, or Simba's Pride? What was your favorite song from each movie? Review or PM your answers. If you haven't seen all 3, then just pick the songs from the one or two that you have watched. Alright, I have talked for long enough, on with the story!

"Move it!" Kiara, daughter of Simba, yelled as she landed on the alligator's (crocodile's?) mouth, thereby snapping it shut. This adrenaline fueled action bought Kovu, a brown and black lion from the Outlands, enough time to climb a tree branch to reach safety with Kiara in tow.

The two cubs breathes heavily due to the experience they had just went through. To be certain they were safe, they peered over the edge to indeed find the reptiles could not climb the bank. They were safe.

"I did it." Kiara muttered, "I did it!" the gold cub repeated, sticking her tongue out at the quadrupedal reptiles.

"HA!" Kovu gloated while the pair backed away from the edge.

"Oh, man. Did you see the size of those teeth? They were going..." Kiara began to imitate what she thought a chomping croc sounded like.

Little did the pair know that they were being watched, by Kovu's mother the wickedly zealous Zira.

"He was totally eatin' me up right there. And I jumped on his head and I bopped him so good..." Kiara continued her spiel.

"We make such a good team." She realized, "And you..." She addressed Kovu, "You were really brave."

"Yeah? You were pretty brave too" Was Kovu's reply.

"My name's Kovu." Kovu introduced himself.

"I'm Kiara." The golden cub replied, unaware that this made their spy angry. Somebody needs to see an anger management counselor.

The two acquaintances were about to exchange in a new topic of conversation when a loud groan, from the grass away from Zira, interrupted them.

"Huh?" Kiara asked herself. Being the adventurer she was, she walked toward the sound. Kovu was a bit hesitant.

"You coming or what?" Kiara asked.

'Please say no.' Zira thought to Kovu. Unfortunately, lions don't communicate through thought.

"Alright." Kovu caved as he followed Kiara into the tall grass and out of Zira's sight.

'Darn that child.' Zira thought/cursed.

As the two cubs proceeded the sound increased. After walking around in there for about 2 minutes, they found something quite unexpected. It was an unconscious cub. By the looks of it, he was male, had a jet black small mane that hasn't fully grown, and had brown fur, though a lighter shade than Kovu's. The cub's eyes began to flutter open.

"Hey. You okay?" Kiara asked.

"Oh, everything hurts, what?" The cub breathed.

"She asked if you were okay." Kovu clarified. Immediately, the cub's eyes shot open. He let out a short scream.

"Ahhhh!" He yelled in surprise. He tried to get up, but fell down again.

"What the..." He said in confusion. He looked at his paws. He looked like he'd seen a ghost.

"What in the name of..." He muttered.

"Hey, you alright?" Kiara repeated.

"Me? Oh yeah, I'm fine. Thanks for asking." The cub replied, though in reality, he wasn't.

A Couple Hours Earlier...

It was nighttime in savannah. All animals were asleep, except a certain baboon. t was this reason that no one, outside of high m, noticed a tiny orange light appear in the sky. However, what the baboon didn't see was a small figure emerging from the portal. It was an unconscious cub. He was male, had a jet black small mane that hasn't fully grown, and brown fur. The cub landed on the ground with an all mighty crash, and he lay there, unconscious in the grass.

Back to the Present...

'If I am where I think I am, there is only one animal that can even consider my situation.' The unidentified cub thought.

"I do have a question." The cub announced.

"What?" Kovu asked.

"Do you two know where Rafiki the shaman's tree is?" The coffee colored cub ascertained.

"Oh, oh, I know where it is! Daddy takes me there sometimes.(1)" Kiara answered.

"How do I get there?" the cub asked.

"Just walk straight in that direction," Kiara pointed to a tree in the far distance that had a very distinct thick trunk. " and you'll be there." Kiara informed.

"Thanks." The cub said as he got up and began walking with a bit of a limp in the direction Kiara pointed.

"Wait." Kovu halted the coffee colored cub's motion.

"Who are you?" The Outlander asked.

The cub turned his head as far back as it could go.

"My name is Beckham, but you can call me Beck." The now identified coffee colored cub sauntered further into the tall grass, set on reaching Rafiki's tree."Well, he seemed pretty alright." Kovu told Kiara.

"Yeah, he seemed cool." Kiara agreed. Suddenly behind them, the grass rustled and none other than Simba appeared, growling at Kovu. Subsequently, Zira revealed herself, finally finding the duo, by tailing (2) Simba. She solidified her presence with a full blown roar.

Alright. That's a good place to end things, right? If you want to know what happens with Zira and Simba, watch Lion King 2: Simba's Pride. It happens roughly 13 minutes in. The reason why I am not finishing that scene is due to it being a part of the movie, therefore, the readers don't need clarification on that topic. However, if you think this mentality is less than effective, just review or PM me expressing your concerns. Also, review or PM me if you have other questions or comments. Now, the footnotes:

(1): I don't know for sure if this happened or not. For the sake of the plot, if you could let that go?

(2): It's a pun, get it? Tails, tailing?

Remember, R&R and F&F! Fanfic920 is out, Peace!
