I don't own any of the characters! Except Lamka!

Sorry for the long update, I've just been really busy lately, well on with the story!

Vitani and Kopa stayed there, just nuzzling and hugging.

"Now what are you going to do that you are King of the Grasslands?" Vitani asks

"Oh... I haven't thought about that, I don't know." Kopa replies

Vitani looks at him. "Well you can sleep on it, we should get back, it's getting late."

"Alright, but I don't think I'll be able to sleep with that now in my head. "

"I know, I have to think about how I'm going to handle a few things now too, but come on." She starts walking away, Kopa catches up to her and walks right in step with her, their bodies touching, and tails flicking.

They are about half way there now.

"Ok now, this whole thing never happened, yet remember." Vitani reminds him that they shouldn't say anything yet.

"Yup, we were just visiting memories." Kopa say lieing.

They walk up Pride Rock, and the first thing they see is Lamka.

"What were you doing?" Lamka asks eyeing Vitani slightly, Vitani gives her a glare.

"We were just talking about the old times." Kopa says smoothly.

"Oh, well come on, it's late, time for sleep." Lamka says nuzzling Kopa.

"Right." Kopa starts walking into the cave, with Lamka right at his side.

Vitani watches them fade into the dark cave, then looks back at the Pride Lands for a moment, a smile on her face, her bright blue eyes sparkling in clear starry night. Then she makes her way to her sleeping spot, and soon falls asleep, too happy to think about what is going to happen about Kopa being King.

oooooooooooooooooooo

The next morning is beautiful. The grass sparkles in the red and orange morning light, as its covered in due from the night.

Simba and Nala are up early and quietly make their ways down to the water whole.

"I feel bad that we are giving the Kingship to Kovu and Kiara, and not Kopa, the rightful King." Simba suddenly says looking up from the water.

"I do to, but Kovu and Kiara deserve it, and Kopa has his own kingdom." Nala says

"I guess, I think I might ask him how he feels about this."

"Simba, don't get yourself into anything." Nala says knowing that this could get their family into a dispute.

"I wont, I'll just take him out this morning and talk to him about it."

"Ok, but pick your words carefully." Nala warns

"Don't worry, Nala, everything will be alright.

They walk back up to Pride Rock, and as they are making their way up, Kiara and Kovu start making their way down.

"Oh, Mom, Dad, hi!" Kiara says smiling.

"Kiara dear, what are you two doing?" Nala asks.

"Just going down to the water whole." Kiara says

"Oh, well don't be too long, we have lots to talk about." Nala says and then starts back up the rock.

"Ok." Kiara says a little confused.

The couples go their separate ways.

"What was that about?" Kovu asks to Kiara after they are out of hearing distance of her parents.

"I don't know."

Kiara and Kovu make their ways down to the water whole for the last time as prince and princess.

Simba goes into the cave to find Kopa, while Nala goes off to the side of Pride Rock to find the other lionesses. As Simba enters the cave, he finds Kopa still sleeping, Vitani and a couple other lionesses are as well. He makes his way quietly to his first born son, and taps him gently.

"Hm, what?" Kopa asks opening one eye.

"Come on, get up, I want to talk to you." Simba says.

"Ok..." Kopa slowly gets up, stretches, and shakes the sleep away. The two lions walk out of the cave. "So what do you want to talk about?"

"About Kovu being king." Simba says looking out into the lands, and then to Kopa.

"What about it?" Kopa asks

"I want to make sure your ok with it."

"Why wouldn't I be?" Kopa asks confused.

"Oh..." Simba is confused, "I just thought you might be a little mad."

"Oh, well I'm not, they both deserve this, and besides, I have my own kingdom."

"Your sure?"

"Yeah, Dad, I'm perfectly fine with this, part of the reason I left was that I didn't really want to be king here." Kopa says scanning the land.

"Why not?" Simba asks, sort of offended.

"Well, I dont' know, it's just so... perfect."

"Oh." Simba understands now.

"What are you two talking about?" Lamka asks as she walks up to the side of Kopa.

"Good morning Lamka." Simba says with a smile.

"Good morning."

"We're just talking about the land." Kopa says to answer her question.

"Oh, Kopa, can I talk to you for a minute?" Lamka asks

Kopa looks to Simba, and he nods, so Kopa and Lamka go walking off the side of Pride Rock, down to the bottom, and stop.

"What is it?" Kopa asks

"I don't like that you were out with that Vitani last night, you are my mate remember." Lamka says looking up to the cave.

"Lamka, nothing happened, she was my best friend and we were just talking about when we were young." He replies giving her a nuzzle.

"Still I don't want you doing anything with her, and I think we should go home soon."

"Lamka! This is my family, you can't tell me when to leave, you might be my mate, but that doesn't mean your in charge of me!" Kopa says angrily.

"Excuse me! Sorry for caring about what your doing with another lioness, and we can't leave our kingdom for long, we are in charge of it now remember!"

"I'm not doing anything with her, and Sala will keep everything under control."

"But it is still our responsibility, what if something drastic happens when we're gone?"

"Then they're going to have to deal with it, being here is something I needed to do for me, and if you love me, you should respect that!"

"If you love me, then you should respect how I feel about that lioness!"

"For the last time, she is just a friend, now stop it, my sister is coming!"

Lamka turns to see Kiara and Kovu about a hundred meters away.

"We'll finish this later!" Lamka says with a glare and walks up Pride Rock, as she reaches the top she spots Vitani walking out of the cave, she walks over to her.

"Vitani?"

"Yeah?"

"Can I talk to you... in private?" Lamka asks

Vitani is confused by this, "Sure... I guess."

Vitani follows Lamka up to the top of Pride Rock, Lamka walks to the edge and turns around to look right at Vitani. "Look, I want you to stay away from Kopa." Lamka says with a bitchy tone.

"Excuse me, I will do whatever I want!" Vitani says offended.

"Kopa is mine, and always will be, so back off!"

"If he will always be yours, then why are you worrying." Vitani snaps

"I have the right to don't I?" Lamka snaps back

"Yes, just as I have the right to talk to my friend in private."

"Not if he has a mate."

"What ever." Vitani is annoyed and starts to walk away.

"Yeah, that's right, you walk away, cuz you know you can't beat me." Lamka says victoriously.

Vitani snaps around growling, teeth bared, and walks at Lamka. "Watch it bitch! I could EASILY beat you to hell, so shut your mouth and learn your place here, you are just a visitor!" Lamka is at the edge of Pride Rock now, she slaps Vitani, then runs down Pride Rock. Vitani just watches her run from the top.

"Yeah, that's right, you better run, cuz I'm gonna get you." Vitani says to herself, her eyes fixed on the lioness.

Well, hope you liked it!
