Chapter 18-Dissapointment
Back in the Pride Lands, Tirria was hiding behind some tall grass. She had grown a lot over the months into a beautiful full grown lioness. Right now, she was watching Kiara practicing her hunting skills. Kiara had grown a lot and had already got into trouble for going to the Out Lands. Tirria had been worried sick incase the same thing happened to her as it did to Minu and Sukina. Kiara was still a cub and wasn't really a real hunter. She would just catch rabbits and lizards as she was still a cub, but not really a cub cub. She was more of a very young teen and her legs had lengthened the slightest bit.
When Kiara had gone to the Out Lands, she had met Kovu. This worried Tirria, so from now on, she would watch Kiara as Timon and Pumbaa always lost their concentration. Tirria felt the rage building up inside her at the thought of Kovu. It was now or never, she thought, she had to do the job and get rid of Kovu right now...
Minu took a deep breath and walked towards Kanami after finishing his meat and when Heira had left them. 'So, you gonna tell me now?' Kanami said as she arose to her paws. Minu looked into her beautiful dark brown eyes and he saw kindness in them. He gulped and took another step forward.
'I've been doing some thinking Kanami,' he said, 'and I've realized...over the time we've been living together, I've just realized that...well...' he broke off, unsure of how to say it.
'I don't understand,' Kanami said, swishing her tail. Minu cleared his throat.
'Ok, I don't know how to say this, so I'll just say it. I really like you Kanami, and I was wondering if...if you'd like to be my mate.' He said it quickly and as soon as he said it, he wished he hadn't and he looked at his paws.
'Oh,' Kanami said, 'oh Minu. I like you a lot too, but not in that way. I like as a really good friend, but...' she broke off, seeing that Minu looked upset. 'I'm...sorry Minu...' she said. Minu looked up at her.
'That's ok,' he said, 'I wasn't expecting you to like me anyway,' he said as he walked off.
'Minu I never said that!' she called after him, but he continued to walk away. Kanami sighed and pinned her ears, growling at herself for what she had just done.
Minu reached the border of Heira's lands after realizing he had been walking too far. He stopped and looked at the morning sky. He yawned widely, for he hadn't slept the previous night. So he lay down and closed his eyes, allowing the gentle morning breeze the sweep over him. He would just rest his eyes for a few minutes...that's all...
Minu was standing in front of Pride Rock. His legs were shaking but he was somehow forced to go into the cave. But before he reached it, a lion and lioness emerged on top of Pride Rock. 'Mum, dad, down here!' Minu called before he could stop himself. Simba looked down at Minu, but didn't even look surprised to see him.
'Who are you?' he called down to him. Minu's smile faded and he took a step forward.
'It's me, Minu! Your son,' he replied. Nala raised an eyebrow.
'We only have one child, and she's a girl.' She said. Minu pinned his ears.
'Don't you remember me?' Minu asked, his eyes filling up. The lions exchanged glances.
'We have never come across any lion called Minu.' Simba said simply. Minu hung his head. He looked up as a small cub came bounding out.
'Who's that lion daddy?' she asked. Simba smiled down at her.
'He's nobody, dear, now let's all go back inside.' He said. Minu felt his heart breaking.
'Mum! Dad!' he yelled, tears streaming down his face. Simba, Nala and the cub were fading, and so was Pride Rock. Everything around Minu was now black. 'It's me...Minu...your son...'
Minu jumped up and gasped for air. He looked around him; he was still in the border of Heira's lands. He took a few deep breaths and stood up; his legs felt like jelly. He looked at the sky again. Then he turned to leave but-
'AHHH!' Minu fell back as the face of a young lioness was staring at him. He fell to the ground but got up again. The lioness laughed.
'Man, calm down!' she said. Minu growled.
'Yeah whatever, now I've got to go,' he said as he walked away. He reached the fields but turned to see the dark-golden lioness standing there again. 'Look, what do you want?' he asked rudely. The lioness pinned her ears.
'Oh well sorry for being concerned! I was only making sure you were ok,' she growled. Minu sighed.
'It's ok, I just had a bad dream,' he replied. He hung his head.
'Ha!' Minu looked up. 'Bad dream are for babies,' the lioness said. Then she got up, 'well just as long as you're ok. Bye now!' and she sprinted off. Minu stared at her in surprise. Then he remembered...
FLASHBACK
'Calm down, what's the matter with you?'
'I had a nightmare, Zira came after your mom and dad but before that we...'
'Come on, bad dreams are for babies, let's go!'
END OF FLASHBACK
Minu gasped. The lioness was walking further and further away, and he was letting her go! He stared after her. It couldn't be...could it? Then he finally sprinted off after her, as fast as he could. The lioness came to a halt and turned around at stared at Minu while he caught his breath.
'What is WITH you?' she asked. Minu looked up at her.
'Do you remember me?' he asked. The lioness stared at him but then her expression softened.
'No way,' she whispered, 'it's you, isn't it? MINU!' she yelled. Minu yelled too, happy that she was the lioness he thought she was.
'SUKINA!!'
