Kiara sobbed in her mother's fur as Mufasa left with the male cubs following. Even Sabra's friend, Desta followed before giving his friend a nuzzle. Tears fell and mattered Sarabi's fur as the males headed towards the direction of the desert.
"So they left. Good."
Anger burned through the Kiara's body. Before she jumped out of her mother's paws and growled at her uncle.
"That was my father...your brother! Those was just cubs!"
Scar chuckled before getting eye level with his niece. "I don't have a brother. As well as I know that they were cubs. But I did what was best for my heir!"
Kiara had tears falling down her face as she looked at her friend and sister.
Nala finally spoke but without emotion. "I agree with King Scar. It's for the best."
Kiara sobbed uncontrollably. "One of those males was our father!"
The tawny cub's eyes changed dangerously dark. "Your father! Mufasa was nothing to me!"
Simba sighed before looking back at the golden cub. "If my father said it was for the best than it is for the best."
Kiara had more tears falling before she ran off.
~O~
Mufasa dragged his wounded body across the hot desert. Desta was by the golden lion's paws as the other three cubs followed in silence.
Desta looked from the hurt lion to out to the open terrain where his dark purple eyes widen.
"Um. sir...we got company."
Mufasa stopped and looked ahead and groaned at the sight of three figures. With a deep breath Mufasa took a few steps forward.
"Please we only wish to pass."
The figures turned out to be three lions. One which was around his age was in the lead. As the other two were a few seasons younger.
"Don't fret brother. We are here to help, my name is Gabriel."
Mufasa groaned as a shot of pain ran through his body.
"We must go." said the pale white lion. "Quickly."
Adofo and Hondo helped Mufasa walk towards the oasis while Gabriel walked with the cubs. When they entered the oasis the group was greeted by a young goldish lioness with a reddish tuff on her head.
"Gabriel you made it back!"
The pale white lion gave the lioness a short nuzzle. "Kisha, I need you to get Freya. We need medince help."
The goldish lioness nodded before running off at full speed. Gabriel turned to Mufasa who had laid down and was smiling grateful.
"Thank you."
"Rest and when I return we will talk."
After dipping his head, the pale white lion walked in another direction.
