Kopa ran across the green plains of his home until Pride Rock came into view. The tawny lion quickly climbed the stone slope. Once at the top Kopa was greeted by his parents and mate.

"Kopa, I'm glad you're here!"

Kopa nuzzled Tiifu and Kiara before looking at his father. "What's going on, father?"

"Kovu plans on attacking. But this is bigger than anything I told you. We must gather all of the pride to beat them."

Kopa's eyes widen. "Father you can't be serious. Alot of the pride are not warriors, that's murder if you send them out!"

Simba glared at his son. "Than what do you expect me to do!"

"Gather help. I'm sure the Never Lands would help!"

Simba growled. "We don't need any help!"

Kopa was shocked as his father walked in the cave. Kiara walked over and nuzzled him.

"What are you going to do?"

Kopa took a deep breath. "Something crazy."

~O~

"You must be truly desperate to come to me for help."

Kopa rolled his eyes."Are you going to help?"

"No!"

Kopa starred at his brother as Jesús walked away.

Jesús walked over to a water hole and bend down to wet his throat.

"Hey,"

Jesús stopped lapping up the cool liquid and lifted his head before turning it to see Sherise sitting with her ears pinned against her head.

"Sorry I didn't come see you yesterday. Had some issues to take care of."

Jesús grunted. "Is there anything you want to tell me?"

"Um...yeah I do. It's hard for me to say this..."

"Spit it out!"

"I'm pregnant!"

Jesús walked over to the younger lioness and nuzzled her. "Now that wasn't so bad?"

Sherise sighed deeply from the touch. "Jesús...there's more."

The red-brown lion continued to nuzzle the dark brown lioness. "Do tell me?"

"I'm in love with you."

Jesús pulled away from Sherise and looked at her. "What?"

"I feel in love with you."

Jesú 't believe what he was hearing. "Lies!"

Sherise's dark purple eyes widen."I'm telling the truth. I love you!"

"No one has ever told me that. All my life, I been trying to find the one. All that leads to is heartbreak."

Tears were falling from both of their eyes. Sherise shook her head, her voice shaky. "I'm different. I don't care about Kopa or what everyone else says about you. I love you and I'll run away with you if you ask me to."

"Sherise!"

The dark brown lioness looked up and seen Amanda running over.

"What's wrong?"

The light gold lioness took deep breaths. "Kopa just told us that his uncle is attacking the Pride Lands!"

Jesús' dark brown eyes widen. "What!"

Sherise and Amanda looked at the red-brown lion.

"You know something?" Amanda asked with a raised eyebrow.

"We made a deal. That deal content on him leaving the Pride Lands alone."

"Jesús...you got to help them. They are your family."

Jesús sighed before looking at Sherise. "You think your Avengers would help?"
