Author's Note: Aww CSIMentalistTLK lover, I'm sorry for the next chapter.

Lions and lionesses lined up prepared for battle. Katja hid in the shadows as Kovu and his army marched by. Once the cost was clear, the tan lioness picked up a one month cub and ran.

"Where can she be?"

Simba paced worrying as Kiara weeped.

"Kiara, Honey you have to calm yourself. Its not go for the cub" Sarabi said as she nuzzled her daughter's head

"I can't calm when my daughter is out there with a evil monster running loose!"

"Your majesty!"

Simba looked at the cave's entrance to see Zazu.

"Zazu what is it?"

"Outlanders are headed this way! Its war!"

Simba looked at the lionesses, "Pride gather up all able members and head out"

Like a stamped lionesses moved out of the cave to follow the king's order.

Simba looked at the four lionesses that stud infront of a still weeping queen.

"Sarabi, mom, Nala and Kanala you four stay here and watch Kiara"

The four lionesses nodded before watching the golden king bolt out of the cave.

-X-

As the two prides met by the gorge they were oblivious to a pair of cobalt eyes watching.

"Well, we meet again" smiled Kovu

Simba glared at the dark lion, "Go home Kovu"

Kovu smirked evilly, "I am home! Attack!"

Simba roared as he lead his pride into battle. Like a tidle wave the two prides met.

Solange and Ari was lying by a creek when a light brown falcon with cobalt eyes landed in front of the lions.

"Princess Solange"

Solange looked at the bird with confusion, "How do you know who I am?"

The bird bowed, "I lived in the Pride Lands and I followed you when you ran away"

Ari sat up and said "What are you doing here?"

The falcon sighed and said "I'm going to make it quick. The Outlanders are attacking"

"What!" Solange cried

The bird flew up and said "You have to put a stop to it"

Solange nodded and was about to make run for it, when a tan lioness carrying a one month cub came running over.

"Princess, wait" said the tan lioness after placing the cub down

"Who are you?" Solange growled

"Wait, I'm not here to fight"

Ari nuzzled the growling lioness, who calmed. A bit.

The tan lioness took a deep breath and said "My name is Katja and I ask you take this cub in"

"Why should I?" Solange snarled

"Because this cub is Kovu's daughter and I don't want her to follow the same path"

Solange loosened up and looked down at the cub. The cub had light brownish creamy grey fur with reddish brown eyes. This cub is innocent and she has a chance to change the future of her kingdom. Plus she already felt a bond with the small cub.

Solange nodded and said "I'll do it"

Katja smiled and said "Thank you and bless you" before running off

"Wait what's her name?"

Solange smiled and said "Oh forget it Ari. I have the perfect name" as she glaze lovingly at the cub

"So what are you going to call her?"

Solange nuzzled the cub and said "Sherise" before grabbing the cub and running off

Ari wasted no time and followed the fleeing lioness.

-X-

As the four lionesses stud guard of their weeping queen when two shadows came running in.

"Halt!" Sarabi roared

But as the shadows got clearer, the lionesses gasped.

"Ari, you're ok" said Kanala as she hugged her son

Solange placed Sherise down and said "I have no time to explain, just watch her" before running back out with Ari

The two ran as fast as their legs could move. They stopped on a hill top and gasped at what they saw. The battle below was deadly. The two shared a look before descending down to the war.

-X-

Kovu and Simba fought like there wasn't no tomorrow, to the death. Kovu swiped at the Pride Lands king, who slipped fell on his side.

Kovu chuckled evilly and said "What a phaethic excuse of lion"

Just as he made way to finish the job, a creamy golden blur knocked Kovu a few feet.

"Keep your flithty paws off my father"

Kovu got up and chuckled, "My my, isn't it the princess. My how you grown and beautifully too"

Solange shuddered and said "You don't belong here and I'm going to teach you a lesson"

Kovu laughed and said "Oh yea. About what?"

"About picking on old lions and innocent cubs", with a thunderous roar the princess pounced

The Pride Landers and Kovu's army stopped fighting looked at the princess and the dark lion fight.

Author's Note: So what you think. Go Solange! Right? So that covers about everything, til next chapter.
