Chapter 2: Serenity

A few months passed and Kiara and Kovu's daughter grew a little but still stayed fairly small for such an active cub. Serenity ran out of the cave and stood at the edge of Pride Rock. She looked over in awe.

"Wow!" she whispered, awed. "Adventure awaits me."

Serenity was just about to run off when someone placed a paw in front of her, holding her back from leaving. Serenity grunt and looked up. Kovu was smiling down at her.

"Daddy!" giggled Serenity, as she tried to claw away from Kovu's paws. "Let me go. Please?"

Kovu gave a laugh.

"Now, now Serenity," started Kovu, placing his young cub in front of him, "I was just making sure you were okay. Your mother is still asleep and she'd kill me if I didn't check on you first."

"I'm fine daddy," replied Serenity, her blue eyes shining with anxiously. "You and Grandpa are always giving me the same lecture."

Kovu shook his head and gave Serenity a slight push with his paw. She bounced off and took off into the Pride Lands. Simba had just awoken and was now starting his way to the watering hole.

"Where's Serenity?" he asked Kovu.

"She's gone out to play," answered Kovu, titling his head towards his little cub. "Don't worry; no harm will come to her."

"Hmm," grunted Simba. "Well, I'll be at the watering hole. I'll check her then."

With that said, Simba made his way to the water. Serenity was jumping up on rocks with excitement. She jumped onto a large rock and her eyes gained big. She hung her mouth wide open.

"Coolie!" She gasped. "I can see almost everything up on this rock."

Serenity heard rustling in the bush near her. Her ears slid back and she looked frighten. Serenity slowly made her way towards the bush. 'I gotta be brave!' Serenity told herself. It rustled again. She lend foreword and then-pounced. She hit something. Someone.
