TMNTTLK lover; Not the slightest.

This chapter is for all of you awesome readers, since the last few chapters were pretty short. Thank you and enjoy.

"Beautiful, isn't it?"

Nala looked around the oasis in awe. "Amazing. More beautiful than the Pridelands."

Malka looked at the tawny lioness with confused brown eyes. "What do you mean? There's nothing compared to the Pridelands."

Nala sighed deeply. "Oh Malka. We did something terrible."

"And what that be?"

Nala and Malka looked up to see a young golden lion with a young light beige lion. Their orange and dark brown eyes burning into Nala.

"More importantly...what are you doing here!" Simba growled.

Nala sighed as she pinned her ears against her head. "It's good to see you guys."

Jaser snarled. "Because of you we lost our father!"

Nala's green eyes widen before she turned to the orange lion next to her. "Malka? You and Chumvi didn't tell them?"

Simba looked from Nala to his friend. "Tell us what?"

Malka sighed. "That your father is alive."

Simba and Jaser gasped before roaring. Malka actually flinched from their loud roars.

"We didn't tell you was because we thought Scar was going to kill him after we left."

Nala and Malka waited a while for the brothers to say something.

"We're going back!" Simba demanded.

Malka's eyes widen before as he began to protest. "You're not serious? Are you?"

Simba and Jaser gave the orange lion a look that told him other wise. Nala stepped up with a smile.

"I think it's a great idea."

That caught the brothers by surprise. They turned to look at the tawny lioness.

Jaser raised a eyebrow. "You do know what this means?"

Nala took a deep breath and nods. "I know. But you got to listen to me...my father is a terrible king. There's no food or water and the cubs are starving. Not to mention my father raped Vitani's mother, his cousin. So you know my father's reign has to end. I'll do anything to help bring back the peace."

What surprised the three lions was Nala bowing. Simba and Jaser shared looks before Simba walked over and lifted her head with his paw.

"I believe your loyalty."

Nala smiled grateful at the rightful king.

"Now we must gather the pride and announce tomorrow, we are getting my kingdom back."

...

"What?!" Chumvi cried. "You can't be serious?! This is suicide!"

"We're a little bit over a year and the Pridelands needs our help." Jaser stated.

"Why? Because she said so? Hello, this could be a trap!" the young dark brown lion growled.

"We're going!" Simba growled before looking at the others. "Any body else want to say something?"

The small oasis pride shook their heads.

"Good. Let's move out."

With Simba and Jaser in the lead, Malka and Nala behind them, then Chumvi in the back with the rest. They journeyed towards the Pridelands not knowing what to expect when they get there.
