The rouge hurried to his den. The cub was stone cold and needed to be warm quickly. The young lion laid down and began to lick the cub clean. The rouge then brought the cub closer to him. The cub stirred, but the lion knew the cub wouldn't be waking up anytime soon. The rouge kept having this feeling that he had met the cub before. Did they meet when he was part of a pride? The sound of the cub groaning got him out of his trail of thought. The rouge looked down at the cub to see that he was slowly opening his eyes.
"Where am I?" The cub asked.
"My name is Kopa. I found you in a river and brought you to my den." Kopa explained. "What is your name?"
"Kion." The cub answered.
Kion, his name is Kion, He he had met this cub before.
Flashback
A young cub with orange fur blue eyes and a black tuft came running in pride rock. Eager to meet his new baby brother. Kopa almost ran in to Nala his mother.
"Can I see him? Can I see him? Can I see him?"
Nala laughed at her son's excitement before opening her paws for Kopa to see.
"What's his name?" The cub asked.
"Kion." Nala answered.
"Hello Kion." The cub greeted
Kion meowed in response.
"I can't wait till you get older. You can play with me and Kiara, and we can go on adventures together!"
What Kopa didn't know was this was the first and last time he would see his brother in a long…
End of flashback.
Kopa stared at the cub. This was his brother. He knew it was him. He felt it was him. Kion lowered his ears. Uneasy that Kopa was staring at him. Kopa blinked, noticing he was staring at the cub.
"Uh sorry, um you must be hungry." Kopa said giving him a piece of the zebra.
Kion was not hungry, he was starving, and took a big bite out of the meat.
"Thank you for saving me." The cub said quietly
"No problem. But just wondering how did you get in that river anyway?" Kopa asked
Kion shuddered , "I was attacked by a lioness named Zira."
Kopa almost choked on the food he was chewing. Zira attacked the cub? Kopa growled, she did the same thing to him so long a go. And mom and dad, they must think they are both dead. And poor Kiara, she must think she lost two siblings. Why haven't he thought about going back? Kopa looked down and saw the cub snoring softly. Kopa brought his brother closer to him. He remembered when he was a cub and had to learn how to take care of himself after the accident. How lonely he was. He would make sure that Kion won't ever have to go through that.
Tomorrow they would start their journey back to the pride lands
