Kion and Kovu woke up early and went to the hot tub cave to look for another clue.
Kovu found a mark with a message saying 'Kovu here is where Kiara and Rani slept with Kion while you left to see your mother true or false'?
Kion reads it and says "oh, Gavin is gonna get it now."
Kovu continues reading it saying 'remember when I tried to kill Kiara, now I wonder what Kiara will do when I kill you. Go to the outlands and say hi to your dead mother for the next clue.
Kovu ran to the outlands with Kion to see Zira.
Vitani was standing there in front of the remaining outsiders as a cub still.
Kovu ran into the den and yelled "mom, you in here?"
Vitani steps forward to see her brother and Kion.
Kovu ask "where's mom at?"
Vitani holds her brother in a hug and says "Kovu mom drowned in a river with Nuka yesterday."
Kovu ask "did a lion name Gavin come here?"
Vitani answers "yes, he said you fell into the gorge and river was coming, but she didn't see you in the river. Kovu she never came back nor Nuka."
Kovu looks at the remaining outsiders and ask "Kion, can you take them home to the pridelands?"
Kovu went to the river to look for the message when he found it, he couldn't believe what it said.
He ran to the top of Pride Rock to look for the next message.
Kion lead the outsiders to the den and ask "dad, can they join our pride?"
Simba ask "why would they join us for?"
Kion told him what Gavin did to Vitani and Kovu's mom and brother.
Nala looked at her parents and step sister.
Kovu arrived at the top of Pride Rock and looked around for the next message but didn't find it.
He looks down wondering where it was when he looks down to see the message saying 'here is where you became one with Kiara. After break ups you have a hole in your heart'.
He looked around the pridelands for a hole in the ground and ran to it.
He looked around for a path into the cavern and found it.
After entering the cavern to see three doors to three tunnels leading to room with Chambers and then there was the message saying 'they we're here, but now one's with me and the other is in my den. You'll find us at the gorge'.
Kovu ran to the gorge to see Gavin waiting for him with Rani tied up to a tree with vine.
He snarls "let her go!"
Gavin snarled "come and stop me, if you can!"
Kovu charge at Gavin bitting and slapping until Gavin kicked Kovu to we're Rani was tied to the tree and bit the vine freeing Rani.
Gavin snarled "this only ends one way either you die or I do."
Kovu charge at him forcing them both into the gorge with Kovu landing on top of Gavin at the bottom of the gorge.
Rani looked into the gorge to see Kovu laying on Gavin and ask "Kovu are you okay?"
Then the river came through the gorge sending them both down river as Rani looked on in horror as Kovu was sent down river and disappeared.
Rani looked around the gorge to see if Kovu clinged to the side of a wall of the gorge but he was gone.
Rani walked to Scar's old den to see Kiara tied up in vine so she frees her.
Kiara ask "where is Kovu?"
Rani lowers her head and says "he sacrifice himself to stop Gavin once and for all.
Kiara starts crying over losing Kovu.
Rani walks with Kiara to the den to see her parents and tells them the news.
Simba and Nala nuzzles their daughter seeing she's back.
Kion ask "Kiara, where is Kovu at?"
Kiara breaks down and crys saying "Kovu sacrifice himself to stop Gavin."
Kion lays down next to his sister hugging her.
Kion ask her "what are you gonna do about being crowned queen?"
Kiara thinks about it and says "I'll resign from being crowned queen."
Kion ask "who's gonna take your place then?"
Simba steps forward and says "Kion, will take his place as king then."
Kion ask his dad "if I take my place as king would I have to choose a queen for me?"
Nala answers "yes, Kion, you would have to choose a queen for yourself.
Kion looks around and says "then for my queen I would choose Rani as my queen!"
Ranii pounce on him kissing him passionately in front of everyone.
After five minutes of kissing, Rani breaks the kiss and stares at him before saying "I would be honored to be your queen, my king."
A couple of days later, Kiara started to forget about Kovu and the memory of him.
All the times they mated.
The happiness they brought each other.
Now all of it was gone with Kovu.
She started to hang with Tiifu and Zuri playing tag and hide and seek forgetting about Kovu.
Nala looked at her and ask "Simba, I wonder how she's doing with the lost of Kovu? At night I sometimes think I hear her crying but when I check she stops crying falling to sleep.
They we're mates and they also loved to be intmacy with each other past a normal relationship."
Simba says "we don't know how much Gavin has destroyed of our daughter."
Kion and Rani continue being leaders of the lion guard. While dealing with the lost of Kovu my sister's mate.
This was gonna be hard on the pride.
Ni and Sarafina looked at Kiara, their granddaughter and what their son did to her.
Katie tried to comfort her but Kiara didn't want nothing to do with her after her brother kidnapped me and Rani to kill Kovu.
Simba looked at the sky and whispers "father look after Kovu up there with you."
