My dear readers, we have come to a end. As this is the last chapter of That Would Be Enough. I want to thank those who read the story and a special thanks to those that reviewed.
A squeal will be up very soon. Enjoy the chapter!
Prince Kopa and Prince Jesús shared looks that was full of emotion. But neither brother could place a paw on a single feeling.
Ahadi wasn't prepared for the look in the eldest prince's eyes. The light beige lion could tell that a outburst was coming but was intrupted by a loud roar.
"Ahadi, sir. What was that?" asked the goldish cub.
Taka sensed the cub was afraid. He pulled her close and whispered soothing things in his daughter's ear. "It's alright, Amanda. I won't let anything happen to you or your friends."
Ahadi turned around looked out towards the direction of the eastern border of the Pridelands, where the roar came from. "Taka, get the cubs back to priderock and bring help." Ahadi turned to Kader who joined his side. "You're with me."
The light brown lion nodded before running off after Ahadi into the green grass. With their training with Fuli and the junior fastest of the Pridelands, the mates had gained more speed. So the run across the Pridelands didn't take long.
Unfortunately when the two got to the border they wasn't expecting to see a face that they thought they would never see again.
Ahadi snarled, baring his teeth. "What are you doing back here!? You're not welcomed!"
Across from Ahadi and Kader stood the survivors of the Night pride. Kion knew that this couldn't go well but before he could apologize he heard a familiar roar before seeing his father run over with a teenage tawny lioness, Mheetu and Hunter.
When Simba saw his son, he froze. It took a moment for him to regain his breathing. "Kion?"
Kenna stepped up and bowed before moving her head up to look at the golden, red mane lion. "You must be King Simba. I heard nothing but good things about you. I am Queen Kenna of the Tree of Life. We seek refuge." with a deep breath she continued. "I know there's bad blood but my son wouldn't be alive if it wasn't for Kion."
That's when the Pridelanders noticed a dull white cub, a month or two older than Kopa and Jesús looking up with wide dark green eyes.
Simba wasn't sure but he couldn't turn Kion away. He glanced at his granddaughter before sighing. "I reserved judgment. Besides we have a lot to talk about."
...
Queen Kiara wasn't sure how she felt about seeing Kion again after all this time. But she knew that it wasn't all Kion's fault.
That Nala had a great deal with what happened. Whatever Nala told Kion it blindsided the goldish lion. Now, as she is looking at the former leader of the Lion Guard nuzzled his mate under a tree, she knew that Kion may not be the same lion before the attack but he's definitely a changed lion and for the better.
"Mom,"
Kiara moved her head to look to her side to see her daughter. "Yes, Princess."
Sarabi rolled her orange eyes. "Mother...I'm not a baby anymore." with a deep sigh the teen looked at the nuzzling males down below from their spot on a hill. "Is the smaller one my father?"
Kiara knew that she had to tell Sarabi but she didn't expect it to be soon but she also knew that it was for the best. "Yes. I was working towards telling you about him. It's just hard to live through it even though I don't blame him but your grandmother."
Sarabi immediately understood. She was born out of her mother being raped but her father wasn't fully to blame. "Do you mind if I go talk to him?"
Kiara shook her head with a smile. "Of course not. Perhaps you can tell him about your brothers."
Sarabi nodded and nuzzled her mother before heading down the hill towards her father.
Kiara smiled before standing to head back to priderock.
Kion noticed the same tawny teen lioness from earlier apporching. He stood from his mate's side and met her. "Hello. You're my guard?"
Sarabi was confused before shaking her head. "No. Um...I understand that this may be hard...considering the circumstances. But my name is Sarabi...and I'm your daughter."
Kion's green eyes widened. But he should of figured something like that was going to happen. With a deep breath, Kion smiled. "It's a pleasure to meet you...Sarabi?"
The goldish teen nodded. "My mother named me after my great-grandma. She gave her life for my mother and mother wanted to honor her."
Kion smiled, liking that his daughter was named after his grandmother. "This is my mate, Raja."
Raja smiled and dipped his head. "It's nice to meet you."
Sarabi smiled before shuffling her paws. "I'm totally fine with you being gay by the way. My Uncle Ahadi is mated to Kader."
Kion laughed lightly. "Ha. I seen that coming. So...your mom's the new queen?"
Sarabi nodded before taking a sitting position. "Grandma Nala cheated on grandpa and is also the reason behind Great-grandma Sarabi's death. But I have two annoying brothers. But there's nothing I won't do for Kopa and Jesús."
"Kopa?" Kion asked.
Sarabi nodded. "Mom named one of the twins after Uncle Kopa who was lost before you were born."
Kion nodded before turning away with a depressed sigh. "My mother was truly something."
"Would you like to meet the twins...and my boyfriend?"
Kion looked up with wide eyes. "Boyfriend?"
While Sarabi showed her father and step-father around a reunion was happening at the waterhole.
Queen Kenna laid on a ledge looking at her son being chased by her oldest brother, Sãhasí and Gabriel.
A clearing of a throat caused the dull beige lioness to sit up and see a light brown, dark brown maned lion looking at her with black eyes.
"Hi. You probably don't remember me but my name is Kader and we're twins."
Kenna smiled before leaping off her perch and embraced the light brown lion. "I remember you!"
Kader smiled before embracing his few minutes older sister. "I missed you."
Kenna nuzzled into her brother's dark brown mane with tears falling.
Kenna hasn't had a chance to grieve since being on the run. After losing the parents she known since she was a cub, her older sister and to remember how selfish her birth mother was that she tried to kill her and her brother. But being here in her twin's embrace, it helped.
"I have someone for you to meet." Kenna finally said after pulling back.
The sounds of children laughter caused the reunited siblings to look towards two cubs in a game of tag.
Kenna's son was running from a a few months younger light cream cub.
Kader chuckled. "I have someone for you to meet as well. So, what's my nephew's name?"
Kenna laughed before walking over to the cubs with her brother at her side. "Don't laugh but I named him, Bartholomew."
Kader smirk before he burst into a fit of laughter before reining it in. "Sorry. But Bartholomew? He's going to be eaten alive."
Kenna rolled her eyes before playfully shoving Kader. "We don't really call him that. We call him Barry, only when he's in real trouble is when we use Bartholomew."
Kader chuckled. "I hate to be him."
Life in the Pridelands was looking to be wonderful. Kion was content with the changes. The future looked bright.
But there's still evil lurking, ready to strike.
