King Jicho growled as he watched Simba return to the Pridelands with his cub in his mouth. With a snarl the dark red lion turned and headed for his cave where his daughter and son-in-law is residing.

The western land and the eastern land were connected and he was the king. His quite large pride is helping them with their plan. Jicho was soon greeted by his daughters, Nala and Zira.

Jicho smiled at the sight of his daughters. "Ah. Just the two I need."

Nala shared a confused look with her pale tan little sister before looking at her father. "What's wrong, father?"

"I need you two to gather a few lionesses. We're heading to the Pridelands!"

The young pale tan lioness rose a eyebrow. "Why are we going back there?"

"That runt of a king has taken Laufey!"

At this moment Kovu walked over with confused amber eyes. "The cub you abandoned?"

Jicho snarled baring his teeth. "He is still my son! I do what I please and I want my son back!"

The three took a few steps backwards before Zira bolted to gather the lionesses.

~O~

A four week old Kopa laid in his grandmother's light beige colored paws. Looking at her and his grandfather with green eyes. That reminds the pride of Uru.

Mufasa chuckled at his grandson, Kopa reminded him so much of his nephew and himself as well as his deceased mother.

Queen Kiara laid on the royal platform smiling at her parents and son. Her ears twitched at the sound of paws approaching the cave. The queen looked towards the cave entrance where her eyes widen.

"Simba..."

The dark beige lion grunted before placing the red-brown cub down and looked at his wide eye mate. "He was abandoned..."

The sound of the queen's voice caught the attention of Mufasa and Sarabi. Their eyes widen at the sight of the cub by the king's paws.

"Where did you find him?" Kiara choked out while looking at the cub.

"By the western borders. Well the land...he was left in a cave alone."

Kiara and her parents gasped before looking back at the cub who was looking around with curious dark brown eyes.

"He's Handsome." cooed Sarabi as her orange eyes gazed lovingly.

Kiara smiled before leaning towards the cub and picked him up before placing him in her paws. "Poor thing. We got to take him in."

Simba nuzzled his mate lovingly. "You are the queen. You want to keep him than we will keep him."

The golden lioness smiled grateful before turning her beautiful smile towards the cub in her paws.

Mufasa smiled at his daughter and son-in-law. "What are you going to name him?"

Kiara laughed a heartful laugh. That would make anyone smile or laugh too. Simba and his in laws looked at the queen and new prince and smiled. The red-brown cub was already displaying a little mischief.

Simba chuckled lightly. "Hmm. He's going to be a paw full."

Kiara gave the red-brown cub a loving nuzzle. "Our little Jesús."

Simba smiled. "Jesús, it is."

"Simba! Mom!"

Simba and Kiara along with Mufasa and Sarabi looked to the cave entrance where a dark cream teen stood with a small black mane.

"Mheetu...what's wrong?" Kiara asked concern filling her blue eyes.

Mheetu took deep breaths before looking at his adopted mother with fearful green eyes. "Jicho is here with Nala and Kovu and some lionesses!"

Simba growled before running out of the cave. Mufasa stood and looked at his eldest adopted grandson.

"Get Sarafina, Desta and who ever willing to go!"

Mheetu nodded before turning and heading towards the back of Pride Rock. While Mufasa stood guard at the cave entrance.

~O~

Mheetu walked over to his brother with his party behind him. Simba was roaring and growling at the dark red lion.

"How dare you walk into my kingdom! Then ask for a cub you abandoned!"

Mheetu and everyone who showed up was confused.

Jicho growled deadly at the young king. "He's my son!"

"Now he's mine! Get out!"

Jicho sneered before turning and heading back towards his land with his back up at his flank. Simba growled before looking at the lions and lionesses that came. Mheetu was the one to approach his brother.

"What was that about?"

Simba sighed. "While patrolling the western borders I went into the land. Where I found a abandoned cub. I brought him here and it turned out the my new son is Jicho's."

"Than why not give the cub back?" said Kula shaking her head.

"Jicho originally left the cub to die. I'm not going to let that happen."

Mheetu nuzzled his brother. "Neither would I. Now if you excuse me. I have to meet my new baby brother."

Everyone watched the dark cream teen walk away towards Pride Rock. After dismissing everyone Simba followed his brother but was companyed by Desta and Sabra.
