Author's Note: SLSPNOUATTLKFan; Thanks, that cub is very important, so keep your eyes open. Enjoy!
Kovu ran blindly through the savannah. Why did his father hit him? Did he hate him that much? He wasn't sure where he was going but he knew that he had to get away from the pride, at just awhile. He hadn't noticed he crossed borders until the scorching ground caused him to jump with a yelp.
There was a rustle in a nearby bush. The dark brown cub turned with wide, cautious green eyes. "Who's there? Show yourself...I-I'm not afraid."
After a few minutes a golden yellowish cub walked from behind the dry bush. His pale blue eyes on the older, unfamiliar cub. "You got some nerve showing up here, Pridelander."
Kovu took a step back, unsure what to do. "I'm...sorry..."
The golden yellowish cub sat with a glare before bursting out laughing. "You should seen your face! To die for!"
Kovu looked confused but before he could ask what's going on two more male cubs walked over. He shrunk back and crouched to the ground. "I don't want any trouble."
The golden yellowish cub laughed before waving a pale yellow paw. "It's okay. We're not going to hurt you. I'm Sahil, these are my friends Aniu and Darko."
Kovu sat up and smiled a little. "Kovu."
A white cub made a stick face before narrowing his dark golden eyes. "Kovu? Don't that mean scar?"
A black cub frowned, "What type of parents do have?"
Sahil growled at his black friend before looking at Kovu. "I know about your parents mistreating you." Kovu gave him a confused look. "My aunt stays your pride. She says that they are awful."
Kovu looked away with his ears pinned. "They aren't that bad." choosing to ignore the fact that his father did hit him.
A loud roar caused the cubs to look towards the director they heard the roar, to see a large dark tanned lion walking around, his red eyes searching.
Sahil groaned before nodding to Darko and Aniu. Before looking at Kovu and sighed. "I'm afraid I have to go. But you can come back tomorrow."
Before Kovu had a chance to say anything the golden yellowish cub turned and ran in the direction the two other cubs ran. The dark brown prince sat where he was before sighing. He turned and saw that the sun was beginning to set, with heavy sigh, he stood and headed back towards the Pride Lands.

Kamaria sniffed the ground before sighing heavy as she stomped the ground with her paw. "Where could he be!"
Malka, who was not far searching as well, lifted his head and frowned. He walked over to the younger lioness and nuzzled her. "Don't worry. We'll find him."
Kamaria smiled lightly before turning her attention to the approaching brown teen lioness. "Imani, did you find him?"
Imani lowered her head and shook it. "No. I have been searching since he ran off."
Kamaria turned her head away as her ears folded back. She really hopes that Kovu is alright. The sounds of approaching paws caused the three to turned and see Simba and Nala with Sarafina and Sarabi.
"No sign of him yet?" the former queen asked with concern in her orange eyes.
Simba grunted as Nala rolled her turquoise eyes. "Why do you even care!? We are finally rid of that spawn!"
Kamaria glared at the queen. Her red eyes blazing with anger and disgust. "That's your son you're talking about! Your son and Simba's!"
Simba growled in his former lover's face. "That's not my son! Never would a seed of such a disgrace be my son!"
Sarabi looked at her son and growled. "Simba! Taka may have done some pretty horrid things but he's your uncle!"
Simba just snarled before turning with Nala at his side. "The way I see that son of a bitch was no longer my uncle the day he killed my father."
Feeling that he had nothing else to say, the king and queen continued up the rocky slope. Sarabi looked away and shook her head as tears fell from her closed eyes. She had never felt more ashamed in all her life. Even when she found out that her brother in law raped young Nala and disowned little Nuka. But the way her son is treating Kovu, she feels as though all the lessons that she and Mufasa did get to teach him was for nothing.
Kamaria frowned, she could see the hurt on the older lioness' face. Her ears folded back as she stepped forward and nuzzled the dark beige lioness. "Are you alright, Sarabi?"
Sarabi shook her head. "I'm ashamed...ashamed of Simba and Nala. They're repeating history."
Sarafina looked away and sighed. "I don't blame my daughter."
Sarabi looked at her friend who was like another sister. "You can't be serious Sara'! You have a son that's sired by Taka!"
Sarafina looked over at Malka, who was waiting for his mother's answer. "I don't know. I haven't been around him for a long time. He's Scar's son after all."
Sarabi glared at the dark cream lioness. "He's also Mufasa's nephew! As well as Mohatu's great grandson!"
Sarafina folded her ears back as her light green eyes narrowed. "He's also Kunta's grandson!"
Malka couldn't believe that his mother thinks he'll turn out like his father...no! Scar is not his father, Kamili raised him, so he is his father as Simba is Kovu's father. Kamaria felt bad for the dark golden, but they need to focus on the important task at hand. Finding Kovu...
