A/N:Well who do you have in mind, CSIMentalistTLK lover? I mean I already have misses Kopa in mind but who do you think it is?

Authored Lion King II

Mavis and Kopa walked through the plains towards one of the borders where Nick and Heimdall walked over.

"Thank you, Mavis for escorting our guest here" Nick smiled at the young lioness

Mavis nodded before turning to Kopa and smiled. "Maybe later I'll show you around"

Kopa smiled before giving her a quick friendly nuzzle. "I'll like that"

Mavis bid her goodbyes before turning and making her leave. Kopa watched her go before turning to the older lions.

"So. How did you sleep?" Heimdall started

"Very well. Thank you"

Nick nodded before continuing. "For your exile to end and for us to show you the way home...you must show acts of a lion"

"A true lion" the auburn brown lion added

Kopa looked between father and son confused. "How must I do that?"

Nick chuckled. "Only you know"

Kopa watched as Nick and Heimdall walked away. The golden lion sighed before sitting and lowering his head.

"I thought they never leave."

Kopa looks up, shocked to see Loki walking out of some bushes on the other side of the border. Kopa couldn't believe his eyes.

"Loki? What are you doing here?"

The pale light brown lion smiled as he stepped closer. "I had to see you."

Questions started to fill Kopa's head. "What's happened? Tell me! Is it easterners? Let me explain to father-"

Loki looked glim as tears threatened to fall from his eyes. "Father is dead."

Kopa stares at him, stunned. "What?"

Loki looked down as tears slid down his face before looking up at Kopa. "Your banishment, the threat of a new war, it was too much for him to bear."

The implications of Loki's words dawn on Kopa, he's responsible for his father's death.

Loki draws close to him, looks in his eyes, consolingly. "You mustn't blame yourself. I know that you loved him. I tried to tell him so, but he wouldn't listen" Loki took a few deep breaths before continuing. "The burden of the throne has fallen to me now."

Kopa looked at his brother with tear filled eyes. "Can I come home?"

Loki shook his head sadly. "The truce with the eastern pride is conditional upon your exile."

"But couldn't we find a way to..."

"Mother has forbidden your return."

Kopa nods, lowers his head, beaten.

Loki nuzzled him. "This is goodbye, brother. I'm so sorry."

Kopa looked broken. "No, I'm sorry. Loki... thank you for coming here."

Loki sighed deeply. "Nothing could have stopped me." Loki looked up and seen the young lioness from earlier returning. "Fare well, brother."

Kopa watched his brother leave before whispering sadly. "Good-bye."

Mavis returned and was surprised to see Kopa weeping. Concern filled her eyes as she walked over to his side.

"Kopa? Is everything alright?"

The golden lion shook his head. "My father is dead because of me"

Mavis' eyes widen and before she knew it, she thrust her head under the cast out prince. Kopa was surprised, shocked even. But the warm feeling told him other wise, so he closed his dark blue eyes and returned the affection as tears fell from his close eyes.
