VITANI'S JOURNEY:

Prologue:

It was dawn. She stood there. She had seen her mother's suicide.

'Why mother?' she wondered as she watched the river flow below, 'Why?'

Her mind and eyes were frozen on what had occurred.

"Kiara, you're safe." Nala said, as she ran over to embrace her daughter. This brought Vitani back to reality.

'Oh, the happy little family rejoices over their victory!' she thought, bitterly.

"Kovu, I was wrong, you do belong here. Now, let's go home, all of us." Simba said.

With that, the Pride Landers and the Outlanders went back to Pride Rock. All besides Vitani, that is.

She sat there for the longest time, lost in her thoughts and depression. This is what it had come to. Zira's own madness and hate had finally done her in, and not just her, but her daughter, too.

'This never should've happened.' Vitani thought, 'Never...never...never...'

(How'd you like my first chapter of my first sad fic? I can't call this a straight angst fic, although that will be one of its main themes, but this is going to cover A LOT of other genres, as well.)
