Author's Note: Yea, last chapter was a tearjerker. But hopefully this one lightens up the mood. Thanks for all the reviews.

Vitani led the remaining lions back to the Outlands where they were greeted by Zira and Hassan.

"What are you doing here?"

Vitani stepped up after nodded to the army, telling them they are dismissed before looking at the pale tan lioness.

"The mission failed"

Just then Kambili and Nuka walked up. No one asked them where they were all that time, cause they're grown and they can do what they want.

"What's going on?" Kambili asked

Zira looked at her eldest grandson and said "The mission failed"

"How?" Nuka said stepping up

Vitani looked looked at her sons, "The princess killed Kovu and without a leader we had no choice but to retreat"

Kambili and Nuka roared as Zira snarled.

"What to do now?" Hassan said

Kambili straitened up and said "We planed our revenged and this time there will be no failure"

Morning in the Pride Lands was like every day, but not in the cave. While Sherise still slept Solange went in the big cave to talk with her parents.

"Morning"

Kiara smiled and said "Morning sweetie how are you feeling?"

Solange sighed "Better"

"I'm glad, now we need to talk. Who is that cub?" Simba said as he walked over

Solange sat and said "She's Kovu's daughter"

"What! Are you mad?" Simba roared

Solange stud up and said "No! I'm doing something good for the future of my kingdom!"

"By bringing a spawn of a monster in here!"

"Simba!" Kiara scold

"No! She isn't like her father! And she won't be!"

"How can you guarantee that!" Simba shouted

"Because no one is born evil! They're raised to be that way! Uncle Scar wasn't always evil! He was kind and loved his brother!"

Mufasa, who beeen listening but didn't want to interfear. But when he and his brother was mention he walked up.

"Simba, Solange is right. We should at least give the cub a chance. Its the noble thing to go as king"

Simba sighed and said "Alright, I guess now its time you take the throne"

Solange's eyes widen, "Really?"

Kiara nuzzled her daughter and said "Yes, but you know Avan is to be your mate"

Solange sighed but than remembered the story Ari told her.

"I can't marry Avan, I love Ari"

Her parents made way to say something, but their daughter cut them off.

"But I can try to love some else. Just not Avan"

Simba nodded and said "Ok, fair enough. I'll do this. You don't have to marry right away. You look a few months after your crowning"

Kanala smirked, she knew where this was going. But she kept quite.

"Thanks dad"Solange said as she hugged her parents

Kiara smiled and said "You should get ready, the animals will be here soon"

Sherise woke up to a nuzzle. She opened her reddish brown eyes to see Solange smiling.

"Morning sweetie"

Sherise yawned and said "Morning princess"

Solange chuckled and said "You can just call me Solange or So-So"

Sherise nodded and said "So what are you going to do with me?"

Solange chuckled and said "I'm going to teach you the ways of the Pride Lands and today I want you with me as I become queen"

"Really?"

Solange nodded, "And I want you to walk with me when I walk up to the peak"

Sherise nodded and following the future queen out of the cave and up Pride Rock.

-X-

The pride exchanged looks as they whispered.

Solange looked down and smiled, "Ignore them"

Sherise nodded and continued walking by Solange's side. They got infront of Kiara and Simba, who gave the cub a weary look. Solange saw this glared at her father.

"Dear its time" smiled Kiara

Solange smiled and look down, "You ready?"

"Shouldn't I be asking you that?"

Solange chuckled and headed up the peak with Sherise following. Once Solange and Sherise reached the top they took a moment and looked at the lands.

"Wow" Sherise said in awe

Solange smiled at the cub before looking back at her kingdom. With a deep breath she roared a ear spitting roar. The animals cheered as the pride roared in reply. Sherise and the new queen shared a look before heading in the cave.

Author's Note: So that's the end. But don't worry, book three will be up soon and the first chapter will take place after Solange's crowning. So I asked what did you think of this chapter? What do you think of Sherise and Simba's actions towards her?
