Hey guys, Im back. Sorry for the wait. Well here is a new chapter for you all. Enjoy! Remember, Disney owns The Lion King. I only own this story and my OC's.

Ajani was the first one to wake up. He yawned and felt and felt something against him. He looked over and saw Sapphire still fast asleep against him. He smiled and got up without waking her and walked out of the den to watch the sunrise at the tip of Pride Rock. He sat there for a few minutes just watching the scenery. He then heard a voice behind him. "You're up too?" He turned around and discovered that Simba was one behind him.

"Yeah," replied Ajani.

"Hey," Simba said with a smirk on his face. "I saw you and Sapphire last night."

Ajani got red in the face, "How much did you see?"

"Oh, I saw enough to tell that you two are more than friends."

Ajani smiled nervously, "Oh."

"Nice going man," Simba said as he playfully punched Ajani in the arm.

"Hey guys." The duo turned to see Sapphire and Nala.

"Morning," Simba and Ajani said at the same time.

Sapphire sat next to Ajani and Nala sat next to Simba. "So what are we gonna do today?" asked Nala.

"Lets go see my Uncle Scar," Simba suggested. He'll give us an idea on what we should do."

"Okay," they all said.

Scar was lying in his cave trying to get some sleep. That is, until he heard a voice. "Hey Uncle Scar!"

Scar popped one eye open. He saw Simba and his friends coming his way. "What is it Simba?" he asked tiredly.

"We are bored and don't know what to do. Can you give us an idea?"

Scar's brain hatched an idea. "Well you could always just explore the Pridelands. But whatever you do, don't go near the rise at the northern border, only the the bravest lions go there.

Simba felt a little offended. "Well we're brave. What's out th-"

Scar cut him off. "I'm sorry Simba, I just can't tell you.

"Why not?"

"Simba, Simba, I'm only looking out for the well being of my favorite nephew and his friends," Scar said as he patted Simba on the head.

"Yeah right, I'm your only nephew."

"All the more reason to be protective. An elephant graveyard is no place for young cubs. Oops!"

All the cubs were surprised. "An elephant WHAT? Woah!

"Well I guess you would've found out sooner or later. With you being so clever and all. Just do me one favor." Scar said as he pulled Simba in for a hug. "Promise me you'll never go near that dreaful place."

Simba thought for a moment, then smirked, "No problem."

"There's a good lad. You cubs run along now and have fun. And remember, it's our little secret. The cubs nodded and left the cave. When they were gone, an evil smirk formed on Scar's face

"Well, you guys know where we are going right?" SImba asked.

"Duh. We're going to the elephant graveyard!" Ajani said

"Yeah, let's get going," said Nala.

"Wait a minute," Sapphire said. "How are we going to get past our parents? They'll see us when we try to leave."

Simba thought for a moment. "I got it!" he announced. "Just follow my lead." They all ran together to find their mothers. As always, they were all together chatting about who knows what at their favorite hangout. Simba ran up to his mom. "Can we go to the waterhole mom?" he asked.

"Yeah mom, can we?" Sapphire asked her mom, Jamila. Jamila looked just like her daughter. The only difference was that she had green eyes.

"Can we?" Ajani and Nala asked their mothers in unison.

"As long as it's ok with Simba's mother.

They all turned to Sarabi, put on their best smiles and asked, "Pleeeaasseee."

Sarabi smiled and said, "It's alright with me."

"Yeah!" they all yelled as they started to run off.

"As long as Zazu goes with you," Sarabi conntinued.

All their faces dropped at what they just heard. Simba looked at Nala and whined, "No, not Zazu!"

While they were walking to the waterhole, the four tried to figure out a way to get rid of Zazu.

"So how are we gonna ditch the dodo?" Nala asked.

"I know how we..." Simba started, but was interrupted by Zazu.

"Ah, just look at you two. Little seeds of romance blossoming in the savannah. Your parents would be thrilled. What with you being betrothed and all."

Simba didn't get the last part. "Be- what?"

"Betrothed," Zazu said. "Intended. Affianced."

Nala still didn't get it. "Meaning?"

"One day you two are going to be married!"

Simba and Nala just looked at each other. They looked into each other's eyes and smiled. Ajani and Sapphire took note of this.

Before Zazu could say anything else, Simba said, "Hey Zazu, since I'm the prince, aren't I able to boss you around?"

Zazu laughed. "Nice try, but only the king can do that."

Nala stepped in, "Well, he's the future king."

"Yeah," Simba said. "So you have to do what I tell you," Simba said poking his paw to Zazu's chest.

Zazu started to get irritated. "Not yet I don't, and with an attitude like that I'm afraid you're shaping up to be a pretty pathetic king indeed."

"Huh, not the way I see it."

"Just then, Ajani came up behind Zazu and flicked him in his head so hard that it knocked him out. "Finally! He was starting to annoy me!"

"Alright it worked!" Simba yelped in triumph. "I am a genius."

"Hey genius, it was our idea," Nala said motioning to Ajani and Sapphire.

"Yeah, but I pulled it off!"

Simba was really starting to push Nala's buttons. "With us!"

"Oh yeah," Simba said and then he pounced at Nala. All of a sudden, Nala was on top of Simba.

"Pinned ya!" she laughed. Ajani started to snicker in the backround.

Simba glared at him. "Hey, let me up." As Nala was about to walk off in victory, Simba pounced at her again. They rolled all the way down a hill until Nala was on top of him again.

"Pinned ya again." Simba was about to protest but then a crater spit out gas which made them look up.

They were surrounded by elephant skeletons.

Sorry it took so long to update. Next chapter will hopefully be up tomorrow. Remember to review. Until then, PEACE!
