Author's Note:Asaf, yes I seen the message. Was you talking about Somewhere Out There? Also you'll be saying Poor Sherise alot. Gary2000, I have something much better.
She blinked her eyes opened to see that she was in the savannah. But everything is extra bright.
"Where am I?"
She heard a voice giggle, "You're in the Pride Lands."
She looked around and saw a light golden cub with amber eyes.
"Who are you?"
"I'm James, son of Kiara and Simba."
Her eyes widen, "You're Solange's brother?"
The cub nodded.
"But aren't you..."
"Dead. Yes I am"
"But if you're dead, that's means I'm dead..."
The cub chuckled and said, "Nah. You're just dreaming."
She nodded and said, "Is there anything special or important you want to tell me?"
James nodded and said, "Actually there is, trouble is brewing in the African plains and me and Javier..."
"Javier can speak for himself! "
She looked from the cub to see a handsome light cream lion with pale green eyes.
James rolled his eyes, "Any ways, we want you to be a..."
"Just spit it out kid..." Javier said with a roll of his eyes.
She looked back at James, "Want me to be what?"
"A guardian to my son!"
Her eyes widen as a smile formed, "Solange's cub is going to be a boy?"
Javier and James nodded before Javier grabbed the light golden cub and gave him a nuggie, "and the pipsqueak here, wants his nephew to be named after him!"
James pulled from his 'brother in-law' and said, "I do not!"
She giggled and said, "I think that would be a great name for the prince."
Just then the area started to get brighter.
She closed her eyes and said, "What's going on?"
"Its time for us to go." said Javier, his voice fading out.
"Before we go, remember the prince's safety is on you!"
She nodded, "I'll protect him, I promise!"
Javier and James smiled, before everything went competly bright where she couldn't see anything.
-O-
A six month old Sherise woke up to a nuzzle. She blinked her eyes opened to see Solange looking down on her.
Sherise yawned, "Morning So-So..."
Solange nuzzled the cub's head and said, "Come on, I want to show you something."
Sherise streathed her cubby body and followed her friend out of the cave. The two friends climbed to the very top of Pride Rock. Once on the top they sat looked out into the savannah.
"Wow, this is all yours!" Sherise said as the sun began to rise over the kingdom.
"And yours." Solange said bending her head down to Sherise's level.
"But...I'm not your cub."
Solange chuckled and said, "Yea, but in case anything happens you will be the next one in line for the throne."
Sherise looked at the queen with wide eyes, "What about your sister?"
"What about...arrgh!"
Solange had gotten up and headed down the path when the queen felt a sharp pain in her stomach.
"Are you alright?"
Solange groaned when another wave of pain shot through her. "I think its time, Sherise get my mother!"
"But I don't want to leave you!"
Solange managed to smile, "Thank you..."
The queen took a deep breath and roared before wincing from the pain.
-O-
Kiara just woke up and got finish stretching when a roar reached her ears. She looked around and gasped. Solange was missing and so was Sherise. She let out a loud roar, and everyone woke up and looked at their ex queen.
"Everyone the queen and Sherise is missing. Fan out and searched for them!"
The pride nodded before running out of the cave, but stopped when a roar reached their ears.
-O-
Solange clenched her teeth and said, "Reese, you got to help me til help comes..."
Sherise's face went pale, "But...But...I can't!"
Solange managed to nuzzle the stuttering cub, "I have faith that you can do it..."
Sherise looked unsure but gulped as she moved over to help her friend.
Author's Note: So what did you think? Let me know if you're confused by the dream. I'll set it straight in the next chapter.
