Ch 11 Adventure Time

The next day Simba and Nala took Kovu off to the side so they could tell him the good news. "Kovu we have a little present for you," Nala said with a smile.

"You do?" Kovu asked, his amber eyes lighting up. "What is it?"

"How would you feel about having a little brother or sister?" Simba asked.

"That would be awesome!" Kovu exclaimed with a smile.

"Well I'm glad you said that," Nala said. "Because in a couple of months you're going to have a little brother or sister."

"Awesome!" Kovu said happily. "Am I still going out today?"

"Of course you are sweetheart," Nala said. "In fact I think Nuka is waiting for you outside." With that Kovu started to run outside to meet Nuka.

"Hold on there Kovu," Simba said putting his paw on the brown cub's tail. "I want you to promise me you'll be careful and not run away from Nuka and the others."

"I won't Dad," Kovu said. "I'll be careful I promise."

"Ok then," Simba said bending down and giving Kovu a nuzzle. "I love you son."

"I love you to Dad," Kovu said returning the nuzzle.

"Have fun sweetheart," Nala said as she watched her son leave the cave. After Kovu was gone Nala let out a sigh.

"What's on your mind Nal'?" Simba asked looking at his mate.

"I was just thinking how fast he's growing up," Nala said. "I can't believe he's already two months old."

Simba opened his mouth to respond but before he could do so a voice said, "Yes they most certainly do grow fast." Simba and Nala turned and saw that Zira had returned.

"Zira you're back," Simba said.

"Yes and I have my daughter with me," Zira said as she reached around and gently pulled Vitani off her back and placed her on the ground. "This is Vitani," Zira said simply nodding at the tiny cub.

"She's beautiful Zira," Nala said with a smile.

"I agree," Simba said also smiling at the cub.

"Yes well thank you," Zira said as she picked Vitani back up and put her on her back. "And may I say that young Kovu is certinly turning into a handsome young lion. He looks just like Scar." Without waiting for a response Zira carried Vitani up to her secluded spot so she can nurse.

"Ugh that lioness makes me so mad sometimes," Nala said with a growl.

"Ignore her Nala," Simba said. "She's just trying to get a rise out of us."

"Dosen't she think we already know Kovu looks exactly like Scar?" Nala said her voice low. "Heck I even overheard my mother say that Kovu even sounds like Scar did when he was a cub. I don't need Zira to point out the obvious. That Kovu is most likely going to be the spitting image of Scar when he grows up."

"That dosen't mean he's going to be like Scar when he gets older," Simba pointed out. "You're forgetting Nala he's your son to. He has your goodness and we won't let him turn into a monster like Scar was."

"I hope not," Nala said with a sigh.

"You have to think positive," Simba said. "No more negative thoughts. Ok?"

"Ok," Nala said with a smile.

"That's my girl," Simba said giving Nala a nuzzle. "Now I'm going to make my rounds. I should be back before Kovu returns." With that the King took his leave.

"I hope Simba's right about Kovu," Nala thought. "I can barely tolerate Kovu as it is. I don't think I could take it if he becomes anymore like his father." With that Nala went off in search of her mother and the other lionesses.

Meanwhile Kovu was having fun playing with Nuka and his friends even though he had to struggle to keep up sometimes because they were so much older than him. "Come on Kovu keep up," Nuka called impatiently.

"Yeah we don't have all day shrimp," a sandy brown cub with brown eyes named Kinta said.

"Man why do we have to be the ones babysitting him?" a greyish brown cub with blue eyes named Cusmo said.

"Yeah it's not like he's our brother or nothin' like that," Kinta said.

"Well he is my brother sorta," Nuka said.

"He is?" Kinta said his brown eyes wide with surprise.

"I thought he was King Simba and Queen Nala's son," a tan cub with light brown eyes who was the same age as Kovu, named Jayla said wrinkling her brow.

"My mother said that King Simba isn't really Kovu's father," Nuka said. "She says that my father, Scar is Kovu's real dad and so that would make him my half brother."

"That would explain why he dosen't look very much like King Simba," Cusmo said flicking her blue towards Kovu who had just joined the group.

"Why is everyone staring at me?" Kovu asked confused.

"No reason," Nuka said quickly. "Come on let's go down by the river. I can teach you how to swim Kovu."

"That would be awesome!" Kovu cried happily. "My Dad says I'm too young to learn yet."

"How can your Dad say that?" Kinta asked ignoring the glare Nuka gave him. "Isn't your Dad dead?"

"What the heck are you talking about Kinta?" Kovu asked giving the sandy brown cub a funny look. "My Dad isn't dead."

"Your real Dad is," Kinta said.

"Huh?" Kovu said. "What are you..." Before the brown Prince could continue Nuka said quickly. "Hey are we going swimmin' or what?"

"Yeah let's go!" Jayla said as she and Cusmo went running down the embankment and jumped into the river. Kinta was about to fallow suit when Nuka quickly pulled him off to the side, "Don't ever tell Kovu the truth!" he hissed.

"Why not?" Kinta asked his voice also low.

"'Cause my mother said that if King Simba hears anyone told Kovu the truth they'd be exiled," Nuka hissed. "You don't want that do ya?"

"No," Kinta said soflty.

"Then keep your trap shut about it," Nuka hissed.

"Ya know if ya wanted it to be a secret then you shouldn't have said anything about it stupid," Kinta said slapping Nuka upside the head. "But I'll keep quiet. Come on let's go swimming." With that the sandy brown cub jumped into the water and swam out to join his friends.

"Come on Kovu we'll go in slowly," Nuka said gently guiding his friend into the water. "Don't be afraid," Nuka said after Kovu tensed up after his paw touched the water. "I won't let anything happen to you," Nuka said. "I promise."

"I know you won't," Kovu said with a smile. With that Kovu and Nuka began to slowly wade out into the deeper water. Once they were in for a few minutes Kovu began to gain more confidence. "I think you can let go," Kovu said.

"Are you sure?" Nuka asked.

"Yeah I'm sure," Kovu said. "Let go."

"Ok," Nuka said. With that the six month old cub let go and Kovu began swimming around on his own. However this moment of triumph was short lived. Soon Kovu heard a very angry voice shout, "Kovu! You come out of there this instant!" Kovu looked over at the shore and saw a very angry Nala standing there. "Coming Mom," Kovu said as he began to swim towards the shore. But he didn't have as much energy as he thought and soon he found himself going under and not having the strength to swim up. But luckily for him Nuka was watching him and quickly pulled him above water and helped him get to shore. Nala ran up to her son fear flicking in her blue eyes. "Kovu!" she cired nuzzling her son. "Are you ok?"

"I'm ok Mom," Kovu said after catching his breath.

"Kovu what were you thinking going into the river like that?" Nala cried. "You could have drowned."

"Nuka was teaching me how to swim," Kovu explained.

"Yeah and he was doing really good," Nuka piped up.'

"Nuka you should not have done that!" Nala cried. Then she turned towards her son and shouted, "And you should not have disobayed me Kovu! You are coming home with me right now."

"But Mom..." Kovu began.

"No arguing Kovu!" Nala shouted picking her son up by his scruff not so gently causing his to yelp in pain. "And I'm sure your mother will want to have a word with you too Nuka," Nala said her voice muffled. Without another word Nala turned and carried Kovu back to Priderock leaving a sullen Nuka behind dreading what his mother would say when he got back home.
