Chapter 2- "Human or feline?"

She is offered a choice. She can remain with the Pride as a lioness or raise her family in a more human environment by becoming one of them but then the cubs can become lion cubs and won't have to go through any changes. She picks them up and looks up at the sky for the great wise Mufasa's guidance and the guidance of the many great kings of the past.

Rafiki is standing there waiting with another shaman- his nephew Mahiti. "Well queen, what is your answer? Staying a lioness or become a human?"

The man cubs scooted closer and she looks at them and makes a decision. "I'm ready to make them cubs."

Rafiki bounces up and down excitedly while laughing. "E he he he e hoo hoo hoo! This is wonderful!" He places and smears some juice from one of his gorbs and rubs them over the babies' foreheads. Then, he chants some weird language in Swahili and places the round star shaped necklaces around their necks as the spell begins to wear off. So, Kasia turns into a Nala cub and Adi turns into a Simba cub but when he grows older, he will have a brown and red mane with a matching tail tuft.

Wise one

Don't fray

Don't cry

Mama hears your calls

We see up here

We see everything that the light touches

Even the Northern Border where the nomad goes

We live inside our pride

We stay in the mind's eye

Oo oo oo oo

We see the mind's eye

We hear it calling

Come

It's P-R-I-D-E
