Chapter 1: The Ceremony
The animals walked slowly, for it was still night. The zebra's gathered their youngsters and cantered towards Pride Rock. The elephants felt the light breeze that carried the message and turned themselves so that they to were headed for Pride rock. Soon all of the animals that lived in the beautiful pride lands were headed towards Pride Rock. Today was a special day. Today the heir to the thrown had been born. True there had been two births, but only one would rule when the King's time came.
The animals gathered around Pride Rock and looked up expectantly. Rafiki kindly asked for them to part so that he could get through and they did, knowing that he was a key part in the ceremony. They watched as he climbed up Pride rock and then waited patiently for him to appear at the top.
Meanwhile Ahadi, the great King watched as Rafiki spread mashed passion fruit on his son's forehead. He smiled as Rafiki sprinkled sand over the passion fruit and then smiled at Uru, the queen. Rafiki picked up the young cub and holding him tight against his chest he walked to the very tip of Pride rock. The sun seemed shine only on Rafiki and the young cub in his arms. Rafiki smiled and held out the young cub for all to see.
The animals reared and bowed and made noise, letting it be known that they respected the heir. The young cub seemed unsure at first then he squirmed and batted at nothing but air. The ceremony ended and Rafiki turned to the King. Ahadi smiled and licked his cub. Uru laid a little ways back, tending to her other cub. "What are their names?" Rafiki asked. "The heir is Mufasa and the other one is Naka." Rafiki carried Mufasa back over to Uru and set him down next to Naka. "Mufasa and Naka." He said. He smiled and spread a bit of passion fruit over Naka's forehead. He did not however sprinkle sand over the passion fruit.
Uru nuzzled her two cubs and looked up at Rafiki. Ahadi rubbed heads with his mate and smiled. Zazu, the hornbill assistant, looked at the two cubs. "Naka and Mufasa?" He said. "Mufasa is the one who will take your place correct Sire?" He asked. "Correct Zazu." Ahadi said. "The circle of life will continue with Mufasa."
Chapter 2: New Friends
Naka watched helplessly as his parents favored Mufasa. Mufasa was the chosen one. The one to rule. Naka could do whatever he wanted. Mufasa was the sheltered one. While Naka could go down to the watering hole by himself, Mufasa had to be escorted by one of the other pride members. Naka growled to himself. It wasn't that he didn't like being able to do whatever he wanted. It wasn't that he wanted that much attention. It was just that his parents didn't even seem to think he existed. To them he was just another cub. This was what annoyed him.
He growled again. The hair on the back of his neck rose up and he half stood, half crouched. "Whatcha doing?" The voice scared him so much he nearly jumped out of his skin. He growled. "None of your business." It was just another cub. The cub didn't give up. "Well, whatever you were doing it sure looked funny. My name's Howler, what's yours?" Naka hated his name. Hated saying, hated hearing it, hated telling other lions it. "Naka," he said in a low voice. Howler seemed to understand not to make a big deal out of it.
"Ok so do you want to go do something?" Howler asked. Naka was about to say "Like what" when another cub interrupted. "Howler! Mom says it time for your bath!" Howler cringed. "Come on, let's run!" He said and ran off. Naka glanced up at the other cub. It was a light colored female with almond eyes. "Come on!" Howler urged. Naka turned and followed him.
Howler led the way to the watering hole and jumped in as soon as he got there. He rolled and laughed. When Naka got there he splashed water at him. "Hey!" Naka said. He jumped in and rolled around with Howler.
Once they were completely covered with mud they walked out and sat in the sun. "So who was that anyway?" Naka asked. Howler rolled his eyes. "That was my stupid sister Sarabi." He said. He spat the name out as if it left a bad taste on his tongue. Howler was a bigger cub, with big rounded shoulders and a tough looking face. He had a shaggy tuft of hair on his head and big green eyes. He was the color of rust, much like Naka. Naka was skinny and thin, he had a tuft of hair on his head, but it was little and unnoticeable.
"Hey is either of you two 'Howler'? Some cub was looking for him." Another lioness cub walked up. She was lean and thin, not to thin, but just enough. She had a dark stripe that ran from her forehead to her shoulders and she had a long face with mean eyes. Her whole figure said she was a force to be reckoned with.
Howler growled. He stepped forward. "That's Sarabi, just ignore her." He said. Again he spat out her name. The lioness looked at Howler and Naka's muddy forms and laughed. "I see why you ran. It was bath time and you weren't dirty enough huh?" she said. "My name's Zira, what's yours?" she presented the question to Naka. "Naka." He said. He growled. Two times in one day he'd had to say his name. How lame was that?
Zira smiled at him. "Well if it's okay with you guys I'll hang out with you." She said. Naka wanted to scream. No one had ever offered to be his friend before. They always wanted to be Mufasa's friend. He was just the lowly brother. Howler shrugged. "It's fine." Naka said. Zira smiled and Naka could've sworn she batted her eyes at him. "I guess its settled then."
