Hey People i'm back with another chapter, not going to kepp u long just want to say thanks to my first reviewer MorpheusDreamer.Anyways on to the story!

Disclaimer- I do not own the Lion King nor do I own the characters butI do however own Aramis and other characters!

Pride rock was set in her sights. Fear led her to running faster. Aramis knew deep in her heart it was the rogue, but her father would not believe her. Her acking paws finally touched the hard, warm stone of pride rock. She caught the attention of Kala her best friend. She had arrived two days after samba's death, her pride banished her for mating with a rogue lion, it was forbidden since she was the to be queen.

The pale peach colored lioness quickly padded over to her panting friend. Her lavender eyes filled with care.

"Aramis, what's the matter?" Kala asked, as the two bumped heads in greeting," you look like you have just seen a ghost?"

"Kala…he's here," Aramis whispered, eyes dark without life," He…he was at the watering hole."

"Aramis," Kala started," are you sure it's him, it could have been anyone or anything?"

"If it was any animal from here, they would have drank the water, not hid and just stare!" Aramis said seriously," he will be here before nightfall comes, best prepare yourself."

"Who will be here?" Kiara asked only catching the last of the conversation.

Kovu turned his now serious gaze onto his daughter, waiting for her to answer. Her eyes flat to her head, standing tall and trembling slightly she spoke:

"The rogue," She cleared her throat," the rogue was at the watering hole," the lionesses gasped, whispering amongst themselves.

"Did you get a good look at him?" asked Sanharo.

"No," answered Aramis, glancing at her father. "He was hiding ."

"Then how do you know it was him, it could have been almost anything Aramis!Don't go filling the lionesses heads with fear," He growled at his daughter approaching her, she backed away slowly," He is not here and will not come, do I make myself clear! I will hear no more of this, thanks to you Aramis they are frightened."

"They should be," Aramis yelled, at her father taking him by surprise," He could come here any minute andyou are too blind to see it, you live in your own little world deigning anything bad that is and will happen, grow up dad, you going to get us all killed including yourself!" She made a quick pace into the den tears forming in her eyes, light sobs escaping her.

kovu stood still, her words taking him by surprise. He new deep within his heart she was right, but he didn't want to believe it.

"There will be a lookout," Kovu finally spoke up," there will be three, any three."

Kiara shook her head disapprovingly at her mate for behaving like so to his daughter. Three lionesses prepared to stay guard, while the others rested to gain there strength in case a battle broke out. The sky's colors began to change, soon leaving a bright trail of purple.

The rogue entered into sight. Fara spotted him, and quickly raced to alert the others. She quickly disappeared from his sight. 'So It begins," he though a smirk forming on his black lips. His pace quickened. Unsheathing his claws preparing for battle.

By this time, Kovu and the pride, including Aramis, prepared themselves for the intruder. His blood stained claws, screeched against the grey, cold stone with every step. Before king Kovu stood a strong, muscular black onyx pelted male lion with a darker black mane, steal colored eyes. Scars covered his body, they were not real noticeable but for one scar…a dark crusted red color, from his left eyebrow to the middle of his right cheek (Vertically).

"Who are you," Kovu demanded, a snarl forming, fangs showing," What are you doing here, why do you dare enter my lands!"

The black lion smirked; a laugh escaped his black lips sending a chill down most pride land member's spines. "My, my so many questions, I don't know where to start," He said looking up towards the sky pretending to think hard," Ah yes, I have traveled here, to this god forsaken hell hole to kill you, king Kovu. I think that's all… oh I almost forgot," A glare formed on his face. His stone cold eyes of blood lust stared landed on Aramis, he smirked then placed his gaze back onto the king," My name is Nemesis."

"If you want my throne, you'll have to kill me!" Kovu growled.

"Don't worry I plan to," Nemesis smirked. He began to circle, Kovu quickly followed.

Kovu made the first move, he leaped heading straight for Nemesis's neck. The battle between the two went on for quite awhile. They leaped at each other, battle claws extended. They clashed a blood chilling roar filled the air.

Oh my, the excitement! Who will win Kovu or Nemesis? If Nemesis wins what will he do with Aramis? Kovu wins what will become of the injured king; will he remain angry at his daughter or forgive her? STAY tuned!
