Time went on and the teens were now young adults. Except Mheetu who was now four months old.

The Pride Lands has also changed and not for the better. There was little food and little water thanks to the hyenas. The once plentiful lush grass lands is now a extended version of the elephant graveyard.

King Scar has also went completely down the dark side. He had dethroned Adela and stripped her as his mate. Since in his words, "She's old and doesn't stasitfied me".

At this very moment Sarabi walked over to the back of Pride Rock where she saw her sister crying. Behind the dark beige lioness was Kiara and Mheetu.

"Adela,"

The creamy beige lioness looked up with tear filled eyes. "Scar...dethroned me as well as stripped my title as his mate."

Sarabi at her older sister with a hard expression. "I heard."

Adela looked from Sarabi to Mheetu and smiled. "My little Mheetu. Come here, come to mommy."

Mheetu hid behind Kiara's back leg. Kiara looked from the cub to her aunt. "He doesn't want anything to do with you. After all you ditched him for that asshole you called a mate."

Adela bared her teeth. "Watch how you speak of the king! I may not be his queen or mate anymore but I still love himand is forever loyal to him!"

Sarabi growled deadly at her sister. "Watch that tone with my daughter! I'm not afraid of kicking your ass Adela! Queen, sister or not you will show some respect! You abandoned Mheetu and he confined in my daughter! So this is completely your fault! Because you may have lost a lost a son but I gain a grandson!"

Adela stood and glared at the dark beige lioness. "Apparently you been gaining alot from me. But if I were you I keep a close watch on my daughter. Since after all Scar will be looking for a new queen and mate."

Sarabi's orange eyes darken as she snarled. "Over my dead body!"

~O~

At that exact moment Kovu was in the royal cave speaking with his father.

"I heard you got rid of the old hag as your queen."

The brown lion was sitting on the royal platform where he nodded.

"You going to pick a new queen?"

Scar looked at his eldest. "Got someone in mind?"

Kovu smiled. "Well...I know you been checking out Kiara. She should be perfect and I think we should break her in together."

Scar looked at his son with a dark light in his eyes. "Very well. Go tell Nala to take the pride hunting."

Kovu bowed before exiting the cave where he bumped into his mate.

"Kovu!" the tawny lioness smiled before nuzzling her mate.

Kovu nuzzled back before pulling back. "My father wants you to take the pride and go hunting."

Nala raised a eyebrow. "Why the pride?"

Kovu looked around before looking back at his mate. "Scar wants Kiara as his mate."

Nala smiled darkly before turning and walking down the stoned slope to gathered the pride. She first walked to the back where she saw her half sister with Adela and her mother.

"Mother. Auntie Adela. King Scar wants a big hunting party. The more eyes the more chance we have of bringing back prey." then Nala looked at the young golden lioness with a smile. "King Scar wants to see you."

"Now let's go!"

Sarabi sighed deeply before giving Kiara and Mheetu a nuzzle and followed Adela and Nala out to the savannah towards the rest of the pride. Kiara sighed before looking at Mheetu.

"Stay at the bottom of the slope."

Mheetu nodded before watching Kiara climb the stoned slope and disappear into the cave.

~O~

Kiara walked in the cave to see Scar sitting on the royal platform smiling creepy at her.

"Yes Scar?"

Scar laughed before standing and started to circle the young lioness. "I'm in need of a queen and you're the lucky lioness."

Kiara's eyes widen before she growled. "I'll never be your queen!"

Scar laughed. "It seems you don't have a choice. As I don't take no's for a answer."

Kiara felt a shiver run down her spine. Scar smiled before backing up his niece into the wall. Kiara closed her eyes and swung. Causing Scar to roar in pain.

Kiara took the moment to run out of the cave. Before she could run to the slope the golden lioness was tackled. With fearful eyes she seen Kovu on her. Her blue eyes widen when she realized that he's part of it too.

"Please no!"

Scar walked out of the cave and over to the two with hunger and lust in his green eyes. "I told you, you I don't take no for a answer!"

Kovu put his weight down to hold her down as Scar motion himself in place. Kiara sobbed bitterly as she was forced to wait for the pain to come.
