Sorry for the long wait. I lost access to the net for a while.;
A/N: This chapter may be a bit short, and the lyrics to the song in this chap may be wrong but I had to listen to the song on my Lion King 2 tape as best I could so work with me.
Kay' nothing else to say so I'll get to…
Chapter 2 He Lives In You
So early in the morning it was still dark; animals of all species made their way to 'pride rock'.
A lion of a chocolate brown color sat on a huge bolder embedded in the ground to where he was lifted high above the passing animals, leveled with any elephants that came by. A breeze carrying fragments of leaves, feathers, seeds, and dust blew his mane. He smiled and closed his eyes at the cool sensation.
Far in the distance he could see the place that was referred to as 'pride rock. He'd never been there himself, but he'd heard stories about it from his mother.
His mother
He hadn't seen her since he had been run off away from his pride. But that was so many years ago. He remembered on a morning like this when he was a cub, his mother sang a special song, just for an occasion like this. And that's what he was here for now, to sing a special song for the new heir to the thrown.
He didn't even clear his throat. H started off proud and strong.
Night!
Now a little softer.
And the spirit of life…
calling In the night
As he sung he witness a baby wildebeest take it's first steps.
Wait!
The sun began to rise.
With the mountain so great!
Hear the mountain have faith
He could see a crowd forming.
Have faith…
He could just make out the figure of a baboon. And the King and Queen of pride rock. The baboon toke something from the Queen, and then held it up for all to see.
He lives in you
All the animals made their selective sounds as the sun rose higher.
He lives in meInto the future
Everything we see
Into the water
Into the truth
In your reflection…
…he lives in you
Another gust of wind blew upon the face of the king, then the Queen. Then it swirled around the infant cub in the baboon's grasp, and it pawed at the debris in it. This was Mufasa's way of blessing them.
He lives in you!
And if you were to look up in the sky at that moment, where the sunlight shed through the clouds, you'd swear you could see Mufasa's face shining down upon earth.
He lives in meInto the future
And everything we see
Into the water
Into the truth
In your reflection
He lives in you…
And the song was done. He savored the sound of the last few echoes of his voice in the wing. He climbed down from the bolder, his need satisfied…but his stomach wasn't.
His stomach grumbled as if it were begging for food. He spotted a wandering antelope that looked like a promising meal, and easy enough to take down himself. But today was supposed to be a joyous day, so he would cause no harm.
At least, not until he was out of this territory. He kept walking, disappearing into the distance.
That's it for this chapter! Sorry it's so short. The next chapters gonna be short to, but the one after that will be better. Okay You guys might hate me for this but, my orignal plan was to have Muenda meet Simba again while he was king, which means it would take place after TLK 2. But also, I wanted to make it slash between Muenda and Simba . VERY slight slash activity! I won't Muenda and Simba making out or anything.
So what do ya say should I leave the slash out, or keep it? Please reveiw!
