*Zira had decided to use Mtoto in her revenge plan. Mtoto was Scar's eldest son – he should have been the king. Unfortunately to her, Mtoto was in friendly terms with Simba.* "I'm sure that, deep down, Scar regretted chasing you off. Maybe he just wanted you to find your own life and start a family?" Zira suggested. "Well, it is true that no girl in the Pride Lands was interested in me… I was too small and weak." Mtoto told her as he looked at all the other couples and then continued, "But it's the same wherever I go! I'm always the smallest and weakest male… I guess I'll just be alone forever…" "Oh, don't worry. Not all lionesses look for brute strength in males…" Zira told him. "Yeah, right… Oh, by the way… If you are a half-sister of my mother's half-sister Sarabi, what does that make you to me? Half-aunt?" Mtoto asked her.
*When the time came for the others guests to leave for their homes, Mtoto decided to stay in the Pride Lands. He wanted to be close to his family and get to know his new sisters. Zira was pleased about Mtoto's decision. Now she could continue manipulating him. Most of Scar's daughters were already on her side. Soon, Simba would suffer… Months passed… The young prince Kopa grew fast, and he was full of curiosity and energy.* "Yay! It's morning! Dad! Wake up, Dad! You promised to show me the Pride Lands today! Dad! Daaad, come on! Let's go! Dad, Dad, Dad! Wake up!" Kopa called out from outside before running inside the cave to wake up his dad. "*sigh* This sounds familiar, or what do you think, Sarabi?" Nala asked her as she gave a knowing look to Nala. "Okay, okay, Kopa. You win. I'll show you the Pride Lands." Simba said to his son. "Yay! Get up, get up! Let's go!" Kopa cheered.
*Just as Simba and Kopa were walking out of the cave Zazu landed in front of them.* "Good morning, sire! I'm sorry to inform you that there seems to be a problem at the Water Hole. The hippos and rhinos are quarrelling again." reported Zazu. Oh no… Can't you handle it by yourself, Zazu? I promised Kopa to show him the kingdom." Simba asked him. "I'm afraid they don't listen to me. Maybe if I grew a mane and learned to roar… Ah, your father always knew how to handle situations like this." Zazu told him. "*sigh* Yes, my father was a great king… Okay, fine. I'll come with you." Simba said given in to Zazu. "Follow me!" exclaimed Zazu. "But Daaaad, you promised!" moaned Kopa. "I'm sorry, Kopa, but this is important. I'll show you the Pride Lands some other time." Simba told his son as he was running after Zazu. "*sigh* I'll wait. Again…" Kopa said to himself sounding disappointed.
*Meanwhile Kopa run out to fine something to do when he came across Nuka and Dotty.* "Hmm… Hey, there's Nuka with his girlfriend Dotty. Hey, guys! I'm bored! Wanna play with me?" Kopa asked them. "*sigh* Oh joy, the brat's awake." Dotty said sarcastically. "Listen. We're not interested in playing with little babies." Nuka warned him. "I'm not a little baby!" Kopa snapped at him. "Oh yes, you are!" Nuka snorted back. "I'm NOT!" Kopa stated back. "You ARE! And now… Go bother someone else!" Nuka shouted at him. "Fine, like I wanted to play with you anyway. Why would anyone want to play with? You guys are so boring!" Kopa told them while he walked away. "Haha, and you are sooo interesting!" Dotty said ignorantly.
*Kopa often felt lonely and bored. His father was almost always busy with his royal responsibilities, and Kopa was top young and small to accompany him. His mother was busy too, as she was the leader of the hunting party. Kopa was allowed to go with her and watch the hunting, but he wasn't really interested. He wanted to wrestle and play tag and hide-and-seek… But Kopa didn't have anyone to play with all day. All the other lion were either too young or too old, or too busy or too lazy to play with him. That's why Kopa's first friend was of another species. One day, he saved a hyena cub called Asante from an angry snake.* "Die, you egg thief!" said the snake to Asante. "Let me go! Help!" screamed Asante. *Kopa and Asante became best friends. Finally, Kopa had someone to play with.* "Hahaha!" laughted Kopa. "Hee-hee!" giggled Asante. *At first, Kopa wanted to keep his new friend as a secret because he feared his parents' reaction. Lions and hyenas had always been enemies. The evil king Scar had formed an alliance with hyenas, which led the Pride Lands to disaster. When Kopa finally introduced Asante to his parents, the reaction was what he had expected.* "Oh, Kopa… What were you thinking?" asked Nala. "She's a hyena! Haven't you listened to anything we've tried to teach you?" Simba scolded him.
