"You're alive" cried Sarafina as she once again buried her face in the golden lion's mane

Mufasa groaned before slowly sitting up with the help of Safi and Sarafina.

"What happened?"

Mufasa looked at his long time friend and his lover's brother. "Scar...he pushed me back in"

Safi snarled at the thought. "We need to get back"

Mufasa nodded and with the help of the siblings he managed to climb the gorge. After catching his breath the three lions made their way to Pride Rock. Where most of the pride were gather around a boulder with Scar on it.

"Killer!" Sarafina roared

Scar and the pride looked and was surprise to see two of their pride with...their king and alive.

"Mufasa...you're alive"

Mufasa moved towards his brother but stopped as he almost lost his balance.

"No thanks to you!"

Scar sneered, "I'll be king. If I have to kill you with my own paws!"

With that the brown pounced and galloped towards the king. Safi jumped in the way and met the attack head on. The two brown lions rolled till the blue eye lion pinned the evil prince.

"Sorry" was all the larger brown lion said before slashing the king's brother throat

Safi turned towards the king who was limping over to him.

"I'm sorry"

Mufasa brung his good friend into a brotherly hug.

"You had to"

Sarafina walked up and nuzzled her lover after the pulled away.

"What now? Simba and Sarabi are gone"

Mufasa looked down, tears falling from his eyes.

"You're queen and our cub is the heir"

Sarafina smiled at that before nuzzling into Mufasa's red mane once again.

"Let's get some rest"

The pride nodded and helped the king up to the cave.

-X-

"Where are we going? Are we there yet?"

Sarabi smiled as they walked through some bushes.

"We're here"

Simba looked in amazement at the scenery in front of him.

"Ah, so this is my little nephew"

Simba looked up and seen a large faded golden-brown lion with lime green eyes and a dark gray-brown mane.

"Hi"

Aiwa smiled, "You can explore if you want"

Simba looked at his mother who nodded. Simba smiled before taking off.

Aiwa turned to his sister and lieutenants. "Follow me"

The three nodded and followed the jungle king into a nearby cave.

-X-

Simba was walking around when laughter reached his ears. He walked to some bushes and peeked through. There was two cubs, younger than him, playing in a lake with a teen lioness. A clearing of a throat made the ex-prince look up to see a teen brown lion with auburn eyes and a growing dark brown mane.

"Um...hi"

"Who are you?"

Simba went to say something when the teen lioness from the lake walked over.

"What's going on?"

"I'm trying to find out"

Simba gulped, "I'm Simba...um the king's nephew"

The lioness' green eyes widen, "Oh. You're King Aiwa's nephew"

Simba nodded and the lioness smiled.

"Forgive big doofus here. He wants to protect us but tend to over do it. I'm Jua by the way"

Simba nodded and took a moment to take in the teen lioness' appearance. She had pale cream fur, extra fur on her chest which was a lighter cream and she had green eyes. Soon a creamy beige cub with green eyes walked over with a pale golden cub with gray-blue eyes.

"These are my sisters Jewelz and Clarity" then Jua looked at the teen lion behind the golden cub, "This is Uzuri"

Simba looked at the teen with a raised eye brow. "Isn't that a girls name?"

Jua and her sister couldn't help the giggles that escaped their muzzles.

"Hahah. Laugh it up"

"Having a hard time making friends big brother" said a grey teen lion with blue eyes and a growing black mane

Uzuri growled under his breath as the gray teen chuckled before looking at the cub.

"You're mother is looking for you"

Simba's eyes lit up at the mention of his mother. He was hungry and hoped she had something plus. She was the only thing left of his father.

"Could you take me...I don't think I'll quite remember how to get back"

The gray teen lowered his extremely large body to the ground and smiled, "Get on"

Simba didn't have to be told twice. He climbed on and felt the older feline flinch.

"Hey. Little man, claws"

Simba retracted his small black claws. "Sorry"

The teen smiled and raise up before heading through the bushes.

"I didn't get your name, little man"

"Simba"

"Lion. Sweet. I'm Arcángel by the way. Zuri's little brother"

Simba giggled before relaxing and enjoying the ride back to his uncle's cave.
