Hakuna stormed through the jungle, "I love her." The rogue had finally realised he loved the ex princess, "I'm going to fix this mess, tell her I love her and then we'll all be happy."
"I'm sure you will be, bud." A dark brown lion trailed after him, "So who's the lucky lioness?"
Hakuna smiled softly through his frown, "Adilah, Princess Adilah." The rogue didn't notice the lion stop, or his eyes going wide.
"S-She sounds like a fine lioness." The lion breathed, Maybe she'll remember me...
Hakuna kept marching through the think fauna, breaking into a run when he saw the Jungle's borders, his companion running behind him.
~O~
Adilah finished bathing Uzuri and lounged on a rock, her belly full from their hunt, Kopa asleep next to her ,while Rita bathed herself, Kali and Almasi were cuddled up under a tree, fast asleep. Seeing the two lions so in love caused Adilah pain, in her mind she hated Hakuna for leaving her though in her heart she still loved him.
The oldest princess sighed and rolled over, spotting two lions approaching them. Adilah squinted, not recognising them. The more the two lions got closer, the wheels in Adilah's head turned more.
"You. Next to the queen, come with me." Niji demanded, advancing on Adilah who was pressed against her mother. Kovu stepped in front of his wife and cubs. "She's not going anywhere." The king snarled, getting ready to attack.
"Oh really? And who's going to stop me? You?" That was the last straw and Kovu attacked, biting into the rogues mane, looking for his throat. Sita and Vita soon came and surrounded Kovu.
Adilah gasped, sitting up. Rita Her eyes wide she nudged Kopa, "Kopa!" The princess hissed, "Kopa wake up!"
"Huh..?" Her brother cracked a eye open, "What?"
"Kopa there's two strange lions heading towards us!"
Rita came over, her eyes widening when she saw who the lions were, "Adilah, Sita sent them!"
"Sita sent who?" Kopa was now awake, looking at the lions.
"Sita, the one who attacked Dad," Adilah woke her sister up, "Almasi we have to go." Adilah dragged the orange lioness up, Kali following.
~O~
Hakuna sniffed the air, snarling when he caught the scent of two males along the trail he was following, "Come on!" The rogue called back to the lion he was with.
"Coming!" The brown teen called back, trotting up to Hakuna, "The lions' smell familiar but I don't know where from."
Hakuna pursed his lips, "I have to find her! Those lions could be murderers or something!" Hakuna ran in the direction of the two lions' and unknowingly to Adilah.
~O~
Rita flexed her claws as the two lions approached, Kopa and Adilah on either side of her, Uzuri hiding in the grass under a tree behind them.
"Adilah? What's going on?" Rita heard Kali asked, his handsome face confused.
"I'll explain later." Adilah glared at the lions, who smiled seeing Rita. The two lions approached, smirking.
"Well, well, well, Niji. Look who we have here, Rita." The lion on the left spat, glancing at his brother, Niji who smiled.
"And who's her lovely lioness friend? Hm?"
Rita stepped in front of Adilah, "You stay away from her, or I'll tear you apart."
Sita stepped forward, "Now is that any way to treat your mate?" The honeycomb lion pouted, flicking her chin with his tail, "I thought we were going to grow old together."
Rita spat on his foot, "You said that, not me." Kopa went to step up but Adilah stopped him by putting her paw out.
~O~
Sita smirked, "But you were quick to lay down with me."
Rita went to say something but Kopa beat her, "You sick lion! How dare you force yourself on a lioness!" The prince stood a few inches shorter than the brothers.
Sita glanced at Kopa, bored, "And who are you? Her new lion?"
Kopa sneered at the lions, "I am one of the cubs you tried killing."
Niji's blue eyes went wide, The Lost Royals... Sita however smiled, "Then you," The blue eyed lion eyed Adilah, "Must be Princess Adilah. Kiara's a mere thorn compared to this rose."
Niji smirked, "She's mine, Sita. King Vita even said so." Niji glanced at Almasi, "You can have her though..."
Sita looked where his brother was looking, seeing a young lioness, her bright gold fur going with her blue eyes beautifully, "And who might this be?"
The young male next to her stepped in front of her, "My mate."
Sita glanced at the golden male, "I'll let you live if you give her too me."
~O~
Adilah had had enough, "No! You will leave or we'll attack, your choice."
The two rogues laughed, "Wouldn't you like to hear about your mother?"
Adilah closed her eyes, "No."
The rogue, Sita, continued on, "How she carried our brother's cub, a little prince called Chaka. How she never told him of any of you, or how she never mentions your names?"
"Shut up," Adilah felt her anger grow, "It's not true!"
Sita raised an eyebrow, "Oh really? Rita didn't tell you? That pride's a mess, the lionesses live to please me and my two brothers, Rita did that, your Aunt did, even your mother-"
Adilah pounced on Sita, ripping at his throat. The lion tried pushing her off but couldn't, Sita soon fell still in her jaws. Breathing heavily, she let go of the now dead lion, facing his brother, the princess snarled, "Leave before this happens to you, and tell your king I'm coming home."
Niji looked at his brother, lying in at the paws of a lioness. The rogue shook his head before turning tail and running in the direction of the Pridelands.
Adilah glanced at her sister and brother, before her eyes rolled in the back of her head and her world went dark.
~O~
Hakuna scanned the fields they were currently in, seeing a lion running towards them, leaping off the rock he bounded towards the frightened cat, his friend in tow.
"Hey! What's wrong?!" Hakuna tried calling out, the lion only ran faster hearing someone call out to him, soon he disappeared in the line of green that marked the start of the Jungle.
"Well that was weird." The brown eyed lion muttered as he sat down next to Hakuna.
"Something's wrong, that lion wasn't running for a reason. Something happened." Hakuna leaped off the rock he was sitting on, sniffing the air he found his lioness's scent, "Let's go."
~O~
It was well past night time before Niji got to Priderock. Panting the blue eyed lion dragged himself up the steps that led into the main den, seeing Kiara bathing Chaka while his brother lounged on the slightly raised rock that the royal family slept on.
"Vita!" Niji collapsed on the cold stone, his brother rushing forward.
"Niji! Where's Sita?" The current king of Priderock frowned, seeing his brother absent. Niji looked at the ground, silent.
"Vita... They're alive," Niji whispered low enough so that the Queen didn't hear, "The oldest princess killed him, ripped his throat out."
Vita stared at his brother, They can't be alive... after all these years... why didn't they come back? "Anything else?"
Niji nodded, "They're on their way here, Rita and some other lion's with them." The blue eyed lion frowned, "I only saw three."
Vita looked at his wife, "Kiara!"
The queen looked up from where she was laying, with her son in her paws, "Yes, Vita?"
"I have to discuss things privately with my brother."
Kiara nodded, grabbing Chaka by the scruff and heading out of the den, once her back was turned she smiled softly, her babies were coming home.
~O~
A bit rushed but yeah, OMG it looks like Hakuna and Adilah might just be reuniting.
Oh and who do you think the lion with Hakuna is? His name is mentioned in one of the first few chapters.
