Chapter Two
A lone lion walked the Pridelands. From the view of an outsider it would have seemed as though he was wandering aimlessly, but this lion had a purpose.
'Where is he?" the solitary lion thought to himself.
'He said he would be here ages ago...'
The lion stopped unexpectedly and looked over onto the setting sun. It reminded him of a time long ago. Before he was marked by darkness... before his life had descended into night... All he could remember now was her name... his memory had fallen into shadow, just like him. A mere ghost of his former self reflected in his name, Kivuli.
"Kivuli," suddenly spoke a voice from behind him.
Kivuli turned around to face a lion almost the exact opposite of himself. A light reddish brown mane opposing his own of dark brown. A pale golden pelt versus his of darkened tan. and radiant blue eyes opposite his of sunset hazel. The contrast between the two was so great, one could only wonder how the two could have any relation at all.
"What took you so long Leo?" asked Kivuli slightly annoyed.
"I had another thing to look after, live for today you know?" simply replied Leo.
Kivuli remained silent as he turned his back to Leo and continued to gaze out onto the horizon, his mind still elsewhere...
"Is something wrong?" asked Leo after a long pause.
"No," lied Kivuli, "Nothing at all"
Leo looked at Kivuli unconvinced, but decided not to pursue the matter.
"So, did you find him?" asked Leo.
"Yes," replied Kivuli, "The name of the cub is Taka"
"Finally we found the Ulia's next target" said Leo with an air of relief.
"Yeah" said Kivuli as he growled through his teeth. The Ulia were a group of lions, a group of evil lions. not the kind of trivial evil one would normally think of, but of pure evil, of demonic evil. For all of them were servants of death, slaughter, and ruin. It was them that had stolen away the love and purity of his heart and soul.
"But what possible interest could they have in a cub?" asked Kivuli puzzled.
"I don't know,but, I need you to promise me something Kivuli" said Leo.
"What is it?"
"I want you too look after Taka," directed Leo.
"What! Why?"
"There must be a reason the Ulia have traveled out to here in the Pridelands find out why, and what they intend to do with Taka." Leo explained, "Once you've found out meet with me again, but until then follow Taka like a shadow, you're good at that."
"I know," said Kivuli simply.
"Until next time Kivuli" said Leo as he departed into night.
As Leo vanished into the calm of the night, Kivuli's thought's returned to the Ulia, and he more remembered, the more his rage for them grew inside feeding his wrath that he would one day soon unleash upon Maliza, The leader of the Ulia. His fury for that one single lion was unsurpassed by any being to ever walk the Savanna. All of that anger darkened his already blackened soul. But he would seek his redemption for his sins by spilling the blood of that bastard lion.
Kivuli sighed as he lowered his head, he could he have been fooled as he was? He should have know all along that Maliza was the one who stole her away from him... That it was Maliza who was responsible for all his pain, his suffering, his heart break... he closed his eyes as the memories came flowing back to him however blurry...
