Thanks so much for the reviews, they mean a lot.

As the sun started to rise, the animals lifted their heads. The sound of a lion's roar caused the diurnal animals to start their journey through the lush green land as the nocturnal animals disappeared into their homes. Birds of different colours took to the sapphire sky. As the rest journeyed by groups or herds towards priderock.

At the peak stood Kovu, his dark brown pelt had a reddish tint as his darker brown mane tossed gently in the morning breeze. Besides him stood Kion. The prince's red mane blew in the wind. A pair of water buffaloes parted and two greyish mandrills passed through. They climbed up to the peak where they and the king embraced along with Kion. Then the two lions lead the mandrills to a cave entrance where the queen laid, on each side was a lioness looking on with proud smiles.

In the queen's paws were two newborn cubs. The oldest was a brownish-beige. The second was a dark gold, a mixture of the king and queen's family.

Rafiki smiled before waving his staff over the princes before cracking a groud on his staff open. He used the insides and marked the princes before sprinkling dust on their heads. With a nod from the king and queen the mandrill picked up the princes and walked to the peak, where he thrusted the princes in the air. The animals cheered, the zebras and other herd animals stomped the ground. The elephants trumpeted, before they all bowed when the sun began to shine on the princes.

After the presentation, Queen Kiara laid on the royal platform as the pride and her family congratulate her. Besides her was her mate's creamy tan grandmother and on the other side was her peachy cream mother. Besides Nala was Simba, the former rulers lovingly at their grandsons while a six month old Adrien sat between Simba's paws with interest in his light green eyes.

"They are so small,"

Kiara chuckled before giving her nephew a nuzzle. "So were you at one point, Addy."

Adrien pulled away from his aunt with a pout as his ears went back. "Antie Kiara,"

Nala laughed lightly in amusement and rubbed her head against her oldest grandson before moving her light green eyes on her second eldest. "What are their names?"

Kiara shared a look with Kovu before she turned her brown eyes on her parents. "The future king is Kono and the second born is Haydn."

Tiifu scrunched up her nose as she walked over with Kion at her side. "Aren't you worried about another Scar repeat?"

Sarabi who was close by and was adoring her great grandsons when her granddaughter in-law caught her attention. The dark beige lioness lifted her orange eyes. "Queen Isa is responsible for the actions of Scar. She hated that King Mohatu took a mistress. Isa wanted to destroy everything Mohatu and the founding kings built and she was willing to tare her grandson down to get it."

Kiara glanced at her sons with love and adoration as she thought on the information she just heard before looking up at everyone around. "That's in the past now. Things will be different..."

The golden orange queen looked at her sons and silently thought,

I hope..

...

Argus stood on a hill top, a evil shine in his grey eyes. With a dark laugh he looked behind him towards the large number of lions.

"Judas!"

A reddish cream lion with a dark red mane walked through the the crowd of lions, his yellow eyes plain. "Yes sir?"

Argus turned his attention back on priderock that stood in the distance. "Take your party and attack. Thorn will be following."

Judas dipped his head before nodding towards the group of lions behind him. Turning his head around, the reddish cream lion headed down the hill with half of the lions.

Argus grinned as he watched Judas and his group head into the Pridelands. The kingdom that he and his brother deserve to rule, by right of royal blood.

With a dark laugh the black lion headed down with a extremely large dark peach lion with a brownish mane and the remaining of the lions headed towards priderock.

The pridelanders won't know what hit them.
