Chapter 6: The Last Battle

When Kovu, Kiara, Gober, and Siyana opened their eyes the next morning,
the birds were chirping and the sky was blue.

Then they all went down to the waterhole for a drink. All of them
remembered the battle that night. They all thought they should go
practice. They couldn't practice in "Antelope Gorge," and they didn't
want anyone to see them. So Gober thought of the Northern Border
(Elephant Graveyard). Instead of fighting practice, it was more of
exploration and adventure!

The cubs ran off in different directions, crawling in the giant elephant
skull and hopping over piles of bones.

Kiara climbed atop the huge skull and discovered the "bone slide." She
gasped, "Hey, look what I found! It's a giant slide!"

Kovu, Gober, and Siyana rushed over and climbed atop the skull. They too
gasped at the giant elephant backbone slide!

"Come on, let's slide down!" she said. Then she lay on her back and slid
down.
"Whee!" she screamed.

Kovu eagerly flung himself down the huge slide.

Siyana however, was reluctant at first, as it looked dangerous, but Gober
lay on his back and pulled her down the slide by her tail.

"Yahoo!" the cubs all cried out happily as they enjoyed the bumpy, fast
ride.

Just when they flung into the air at the end, Simba and Nala leaped to
catch them. They had been looking everywhere for them.

Simba sprang up and managed to grab Kiara.

Nala leaped up just in time to grab a hold of Kovu.

But Gober and Siyana flew through the air and landed plop! Onto a pile of
bones. That's when they came face to face with an angry alligator!

Gober scraped his paw on a sharp skull, and Siyana's back was weak and
sore. They managed to escape, only to find themselves trapped in a
corner, injured and trembling.

Suddenly, out of nowhere sprang Kiara and Kovu. They fought off the
crocodile and helped their mates back to Pride Rock.

Moments later, Gober woke up to warm, soothing licks from Kiara. Then
Siyana woke up to Kovu. Each pair lay side by side comforting each
other.

Simba and Nala were overjoyed, that they joined them.

They all slept until dusk and then prepared for battle.

At dusk the battle began. Gober, Siyana, Kiara, Kovu, Simba, and Nala
set out for "Antelope Gorge." All six of them were as ready as ever.
They were early, so they waited awhile. But they all stood alert for any
traps.

A bug flew on Kiara's paw, and she bent down to flick it away. When she
did, Simba spotted a boar well-hidden in the bushes. He yelled to Gober
to get Kiara out of the way. Gober looked just in time tot see the boar
leap out of the bushes.

He quickly pounced, but Kiara rolled out of the way just in time. The
boar landed thump! On his stomach.

All of the sudden, a whole pride of boars appeared from the bushes.

Simba leapt in front of his pride. "We won't leave here without a fair
battle!"

"No one dares cheat and try to hurt Kiara!" Gober said stepping up.

"What? Who are you two...four?!" the leader boar, Nira demanded.

"These are our cubs!" Nala shouted.

"All four?" another boar yelled.

Gober began to explain. "I'm Gober, and Siyana's my sister. These are
our best friends, Kiara and Kovu, who live with us now."

"Never mind!" the second boar hissed.

Nira made a threat to them. "It's no matter; your four puny babies will
never survive against us! Then we'll take you two down easily!"

Simba couldn't stand insults about his brave, hard-trained, sweet cubs,
so he roared, "That does it! Let the battle begin!"

Six lions against 13 boars! This would be tricky for them. All at once,
the two prides attacked!

Kovu took down one already, only 12 more to go.

Then Gober, Siyana, and Kiara each took down one or two.

Simba and Nala were much bigger, so they were clawing right and left.
Once all the small ones were taken care of, Nira was not at all thrilled.
Only her and her two other larger kinds remained. She was ready for her
fight.
Finally, it was six to three; four small cubs and two big cubs
(adolescents) vs. three big boars.

"Why do you want revenge on us?" Kovu demanded.

"Yeah! What did we ever do to you?" Siyana questioned.

"You are rulers of Pride Rock and the Pride lands! We want to rule!"
yelled Nira.

"You don't deserve to rule! You are cruel and selfish! I banish you and
your two sidekicks from the Pride lands forever!" Simba yelled.

"Not without a fight!" Nira snickered.

Nira and her other two boars attacked, but the six lions jumped out of
the way. Then before the boars had a chance, Kovu pounced on the first
boar's back, and it fell to the ground, where Siyana jumped over to help
Kovu. Kiara and Gober leapt on the second boar and bit its hoof and
clawed its back.

Then when the six of them faced Nira, they all took their positions.

Kovu sped behind Nira and clawed her back. Kiara yanked her tail.
Siyana bit her legs, and Gober swiped his paw across her face.

She was weak, but Simba and Nala took it from there. She was nearly
dead, and limped away from the Pride lands and croaked. It was all over.

All of them returned happily to Pride Rock where they could once again
live happily in peace. Soon, another generation of cubs would be born,
continuing the unbreakable Circle of Life.

A/N: Hey everyone! How'd you all like the last chapter of this crazy
story? Sorry if I disappointed anyone, and you thought the ending was
crappy, but you know why at least—11years old, yes. Oh I did however
insert a new little part in this chapter I just wrote today, as a 17 year
old, because I re-read it and found out that I drew a picture to set-up
for the next event in the chapter, but without the picture, it didn't
make sense at all! So I wrote a new, little part to transition from
events. See if you can guess which part/dialogue is the new one! I'll
give you food from PANERA BREAD, because I work there! Please let me know
by reviewing, and speaking of reviewing, I want to thank all the people
who reviewed. Never before have I gotten so many reviews for only a few
chapters! This makes me very happy and I love you all!
Now that I'm done posting this story, I'm going to continue working on my
two current stories, "The Winds of Change," and "Hope and Pride." I'm
getting close to finishing "Hope and Pride," so then I can fully
concentrate on "The Winds of Change," for all you guys who are getting
impatient, I understand, but there's like what 25 days left of school?
Almost done! Yes! Thank You God! Anyway, just wanted to let you all know
that, for like the 20th time. ; P
