... wow, i never got four reveiws just with the first chapter, thanks to everyone!

BTW, this story is dedicated to my grandpa, since he never got to read it.

Dawn found the rock where Shetani was abbandoned, Prides Hollow, to be touched with the anger of the pride leader. For, although Fina was not Queen, she was, as well, the kings mate. And he was outraged when he entered the den and found Shetani and her new brother sleeping side by side.

"Fina, what is that thing?" he roared, stalking across the den to the cub and tossing Shetani away from her. Fina stoodk, abandoning her second cub to grab her. The King, Kijana growld as she picked up the two-tailed cub and nestled it down next to her other cub.

"It's your daughter, Kijana." she murmured at last as she settled down next to them. Kijana let out a snarl and started pacing back and forth. Snarling every time Shetani was in his eyesight.

"Look at her, Fina, she has two tails! How can a thing like that be lion?" he snarled, sniffing Shetani again.

"I've already named her!" hissed Fina, curling her body closer around the two cubs, "Her name is Shetani, and his name is Amadi." Kijana stopped pacing and looked in closer to Shetani and Amadi.

"You know what their names mean, right?" he growled, Fina quivered, but nodded, he grinned, "this is so perfect, his name means 'to die at birth' and her name means 'devil'!" he grinned, "Adeola named my cub last night, his name is Baako. He is the heir of the throne. This Shetani will live as her name, as will Amadi."

With a growl he grabbed Amadi and swung him hard through the air, where the defenseless cub crashed into the wall and sank to the ground like a rag. Fina let out a hoarse cry and got up to pick up Amadi, but Kijana stepped in her way.

"This cubs have a destiny to furfil, to find the meaning of their names and to fallow it. Amadi has done so ans now his is honored in the highest of ranks. Shatani, however," he threw a disgusted look at the two-tailed lion, "She will be shunned for her whole life. Always be the lowest in the hunting packs. Remember that."

And after that speech, Kijana stauked away into the large den. Fina felt her eyes burn, how could he? First kill her son and then say that Shetani would always be the bottom of the hunting parties. She dug her claws into the ground, she would rather die! Shetanis whimpers caughter her, and she looked down at her, and nosed her closer.

While Kijana went off to do his king duties, his son, Baako, decided to do some exploring himself. Baako was much like Simba, headstrong and messy, with a tinge of brown on the top of his skull where his mane would be.

Snooping around the dens were easy when all of the lioness were away, and he soon came across Shetanis. She was curled up, asleep in the corner of the den next to Amadis body. Fina had gone out to hunt.

Shetanis eyes were half open, revealing beautiful violet eyes as she snuggled in closer to Amadis body. Baako looked at her tail, then at her eyes, and then sighed as he turned away. Shetani whimpered as Baako left, but stayed still. She was to tired to move.

"Are you tireeeddd, devil cub?" snickered Baako, bringing his bigger face close to Shetani, "You know, your gonna end up just like Amadi someday, maybe dad'll kill you, or maybe your mama." he snickered and flicked his claws at her, scratching her cheek. Shetani whimpered and curled in closer to herself. Baako snickered, "Stupid devil cub." With a swish of his tail he walked off.

Ah, poor Shetani, just a little cub. In the next chapter i'll focus on whats going on at Pride Rock and the replaced daughter.

Oh, and just clarification on the names.

Shetani - devil

Baako - first born

Kijava - youngerstar (dont ask, i dont know why either)
