Author's Note: So I decided to finish this between today and tomorrow, so enjoy!

~TLK:II~

The Pridelander pride gather at the base of Pride Rock and stud in two lines. Simba walks down the line toward Nala, who is sitting at at the end of the assembled pride. She looks quite worried and sad, but forces a smile with when Simba reaches her.

"here he is!" shouted a tan lioness

Kopa emerges from over a hill on the trail. He looks at Rafiki, who is standing next to the path. The prince looks worried until Rafiki speaks to him.

" Kopa"

Zazu lands nearby as Timon and Pumbaa embrace goofily. As Kopa made his way down the path the pride began to whisper.

"My, how you're grown" purred Sarafina

Kopa reached the bottom and hugged Simba before looking over at his teary eye mother.

Nala smiled lightly and said "Kopa...my son-you have grown into a fine lion"

Kopa smiled and nuzzled his mother before running over to the edge and looking back. Nala and Simba noddy and smile. Kopa smiles back before running off into the field.

Simba nuzzles his queen and said "Don't worry dear, he'll be fine"

Nala nodded and watched her mate walked over to their mothers. Deep in the Elephant graveyard was Victor and Nuka standing on a ledge. Over the years Victor has grown well, he's buff and has a fine black mane.

"Yeech. This place is even creepier since most of they hyenas ran off"

Victor rolls his eyes and jumps down. While Nuka stayed up for a bit with annoyed look.

"I'm not scared, okay?" and jumps down

They walk over to one of the spouts and Victor drops the sticks against the edge.

"I just don't know why we have to be here, that's all. If Kovu was so special, why do he need us?"

Victor rolled his eyes and and said "You complain more than an pregnant lioness"

Nuka frowned and was about to say something when the spouts bursts and lighting the sticks ablaze.

Victor smirked "That's it! Now come on...Kopa already started his patrol. We have to move quickly"

Nuka grabs his burning stick and leans over the vents edge; it goes off scorching the small mane lion's face.

"Oooh! Fire!" laughed Nuka crazily and bounds off after Victor

Kopa made it to the northern border and started patrolling. Just as he started to head home a herd of was galloping his way. Kopa looked up and saw the plains in flame, he panics and run the ran he came. On a high knoll above the flames, where Zira and the young dark brow lion sat watching.

"The plan is in motion...Go!"

The young dark brown lion runs down the slope, toward Pride Rock. On Pride Rock Nala was pacing as Simba sat not far.

Simba chuckled and said "Love, relax I'm sure he's fine. What could happen?"

Nala rolled her eyes and looks up and gasped loudly.

Simba walks over and said with a smile "I was only kidding, but-"

Simba stops talking when Nala lifts her paw and points out onto the savannah.

The king's eyes wide as he roared "No! Kopa!"

In the back of Pride Rock was a teen Mheetu lying on his lighter cream belly. When a young adult Afua walked over.

"What are you thinking about?"

Mheetu sighed and said "You'll laughed and more"

Afua raised a brow and sat, "Try me"

Mheetu sighed and took a deep breath before sitting up and pushing his head under the older the lion's head with a purr. Afua was surprised, but soon smiled and nuzzled the younger lion with a purr of his own. They stayed like that till they heard the king and the pride's roars.

Author's Note: What do think of the little fluff between Afua and Mheetu? So review and tell me what you think, I also might post two chapters of the sequel, I'm sure...but you let me know if I should.
