This is is the only chapter with only characters from the original two movies.
Charters in Disney's "The Lion King" and "The Lion King: Simba's pride" belong to Disney. Ahadi, Kopa, and Uru are not mine, they are mentioned in many places around the net if you do some poking around, just figured I'd use them to stay consistant with names people already know. Everyone else is mine (about eight charaters with names).
"He's gone?" Simba yelled at Zazu "what do you mean he's gone? Lions don't just disappear into the air!"
Zazu wished that he has waited for Timone and Pumbaa to arrive before confronting Simba. "No one has seen Kopa since he left pride rock yesterday."
"He's gone away for a day before, but never this long…" Simba said as he paced back and forth over the floor in the cave. It had been two days since Kopa had disappeared, and he hadn't told anyone on pride rock where he was going. Kopa had been gone for entire days before, but always returned to pride rock for the night. He had not been back when Simba had gone to sleep, he had been worried yes, but never thought Kopa wouldn't be back when he awoke. Something was wrong, he knew it. Had he gone to the outlands? Maybe one of Zera's pride knew where he had gone.
"Zera!" Simba called.
"Yes?" responded the deep voice of the leader of a small group of females who had entered the pride under Scar's rule. They felt as if Simba had stolen the position of king from Scar, but appeared to accept Simba as the new leader of pride rock.
"Zera, do you know where Kopa is?"
Zera saw her chance to strike at his heart present itself to her as if on a silver platter. No, she had not managed to kill the brat that Simba called a son, but he had left the pride lands yesterday after somehow hearing of her plan to kill him. She cared not for his fate, and the fact that Simba had come to her showed that he was desperate for any information.
"Yes, I do believe that I have, Simba." She said slowly, to drag out the time that she could see the look of hope on his face that she knew would soon turn to despair. "The vultures will have picked the carcass of that hairball you called a son clean by now." She said and stayed only long enough to see his face transform to despair. Then came the anger, but she was already out of reach with the rest of her followers. Simba roared in anger, they had gotten away; they all knew that they were banished. He didn't need to tell them that. He hung his head in despair once more…Kopa was dead. All that was left was his daughter. He would not lose her not like he lost Kopa…never…
