Chapter Two~ Getting older
A young lion ran out of the lion's den to the edge of Pride Rock. This cub had light brown fur. And on top of his head he had a small darker brown mane growing. This cub went be the name of Mufasa. He looked over the kingdom carefully and smiled at the scene. Then he looked back at the lion's den, knowing everyone was still asleep, he knew he could sneak off. He ran over to the path that lead down off Pride Rock and before he could leave he heard a voice.
"And just where do you think you're going?" a young female voice said.
Mufasa's ears fell back as he turned to see a cub his size behind him. She was a light tan color and she stood with her head held high. She was known for her poise and adult like manner. The boy cubs found her to be a tattle tail. Tghis cubs name was Sarabi.
"Not you," Mufasa snapped. "Don't you have a life or something, Sarabi?"
Sarabi smiled then jumped in front of him to block his path. "Just making sure you don't get killed. And when I say killed I mean by your father."
Mufasa stood up straight. "Stand aside."
"No," Sarabi told him.
Another young cub walked out of the cave. He was a darker brown, much darker. His extremely small mane was almost black. He didn't have as much poise as Sarabi. But he did try to seem like a prince. This cub was known as Taka, Mufasa's younger brother. He stretched before walking over to the other two cubs.
"Guess I'm not the only one who wakes up before sun rise," Taka noted.
Mufasa grinned. "Not for today."
"I think we should all go back in until the king wakes up," Sarabi told them. "At least that way our parents all know where we are."
Mufasa growled. "No way! Taka's up now. We can go out together."
"Don't tattle," Taka told her.
Sarabi watched as the two brothers walked around her. She then turned around to watch them leave. Then she went back into the lion's den, running. When she saw King Ahadi waking up she smiled and approached him.
*~*~*~*~*~*
Mufasa ran ahead of Taka, both of them laughing as they did. Suddenly Mufasa tripped and tumbled down a hill, taking his brother down with him. When they both stopped rolling at the bottom the flipped onto their stomachs and laughed harder. Then they stopped, looked at each other, and continued.
"Hey," Mufasa said jumping into pouncing possition. "Wanna fight?"
Taka sat up straight holding his head high in the air. "When it comes to brains I've got the upperhand. But when it comes to bruttle strength... I'm afraid I'm at the shallow end of the gene pool."
"Your so weird," Mufasa laughed.
Taka leaped foward, tackling his brother and pinning him on the ground. "Pinned ya!"
Another lion cub approached. She stood over Mufasa and face to face with Taka. Taka backed off Mufasa while staring at her. While Mufasa twisted onto his stomach and stared at her. She was beautiful. She took a few steps back and sat down, giggling under their stares. This cubs name was Sarafina.
"What are you staring at?" she asked, still giggling.
Mufasa shook it off. "Nothing much."
Sarafina stopped giggling and straightened up. "And I thought you were a prince." She looked at Taka who still stared. "Hey, Taka."
"Hi," Taka said finally.
Two other female cubs ran over. One of them was Sarabi. The other was darker then Sarafina and Sarabi, but only by a little. She didn't seem to like the Pride Lands. She always said that she wanted a new life somewhere else. This cub went by the name Zira.
"Your father is looking for both of you," Sarabi told Mufasa and Taka. "He's upset that you left before the sun even rose without telling him or your mom."
Mufasa stood up and got right into her face. "And I wonder who let him know we were gone."
A male cub cub approached unnoticed by the others. He walked slowly toward them, in pouncing possition. Ready to pounce on Sarafina. He was the color of Mufasa. This cub was named Bonji.
"Don't blame Sarabi for your stupid mistake!" Zira snapped.
Taka growled. "And when did going for a walk become a mistake?"
Suddenly Bonji tackled Sarafina, making them tumble a few times. But when they stopped Sarafina had him pinned to the ground.
"Ha, pinned ya," Sarafina told him and climbed off.
Bonji sat up, shaking the dirt off him. "Not fair."
"Let's go guys," Mufasa said.
A bird flew over top of them then landed in front of Mufasa as he went to walk away. "The only place you'll be going is home." Mufasa rolled his eyes. "Your father is looking for you."
"And he sent the dodo to get me," Mufasa laughed and walked around him. "Go away, Zazu."
Sarabi jumped in front of him, blocking his path. Everytime he would try to walk around her she would jump in his way. The rest of the cubs and Zazu watched the two. Finally Mufasa got around her and turned so he could talk to her face to face.
"Ha," he snapped. "You can't stop me. No one can." When he went to turned back around Ahadi stood in his way. Mufasa's ears fell back and he backed away.
Sarabi smiled and walked back next to Sarafina, sitting down to watch. "No one?"
*~*~*~*~*~*
Akase watched five cubs run into the den playfully. Then she saw Ahadi walk in with Mufasa trailing behind with his head down. She walked over to her son and nodged him playfully with her nose. He perked up a little bit but once he looked at his father, and saw his gaze he sat down and let his head fall again.
Ever sense Ahadi's brother was killed by the hyenas he kept a close eye on his sons. He never made Taka promise to stay home unless they had an adult because he thought if Mufasa made the promise he could keep his little brother out if harms way. Akase wished it wasn't so bad for her son. He was expected to do so much.
"Ahadi, can I see you outside," Akase said calmly and walked out of the lion's den. Ahadi followed her carefully. "He's just a cub. You need to lighten up."
"As future king he has to know rules," Ahadi told her.
Akase walked to the edge of Pride Rock and he followed her there. "Your brother's death was not your fault. And if you keep blaming yourself, Mufasa is not going to want his birth right. I know my son. He's as stubbron as you were when you were a cub. And remember you ran away from it."
"But I came back," Ahadi noted.
"He might not," Akase roared. She turned around and walked away, leaving him to think.
