A/N:CSIMentalistTLK lover-Yeah, I thought I would do something different. Since this is the prequel to Twists of Fates, it works out well.
Changing Tides
Time seemed to fly by for the royal couple. It was only a few weeks since Mufasa was born. Now the golden cub was old enough to go out on his own. Well with the other cubs of course. And where's there friends, frienemies are not far from behind. Kiran and Mufasa was in the heat of a game. Both trying their best to pinn the other. But Kiran soon found himself on his back again.
"Tsk Tsk Tsk"
The two male cubs looked up and seen the group of cubs they normally be playing with. With Sarafina shaking her head.
"It's a shame you always get beaten by a younger cub. Quite phateic really"
Kiran scrawled at the creamy cub as Mufasa glared.
"Sarafina!" Sarabi scolded
Sarafina rolled her blue eyes. "It's true"
A purple hornbill flew down in front of the cubs causing Mufasa to look alarmed.
"Zuzu, is everything alright?"
The female bird nodded. "Yes. Your father just wants you to stay close to Pride Rock. Hyenas are in the kingdom"
The cubs' eyes widen as they screamed. "Hyenas!"
"Don't worry, the king went to chase them off"
Mufasa took a breather as the purple hornbill flew to a nearby tree.
"That's a relief"
Kiran smirked. "Awe Muffy's scared"
Mufasa growled. "I'm not scared"
"Then go after your old man"
Sarafina smiled. "Why don't you go after the king? Or is it because your scared"
Kiran glared at the creamy cub. "I'm not scared! How about you go! I bet you can't go as far as me!"
Sarafina smiled with a interesting look in her blue eyes. "Hmm. You're on"
"Um...we're out" said Kavela backing up
Sarabi sighed. "Then whoever doesn't want to go and can get Zuzu away"
Sarafina looked at the group of cubs that was staying back and smiled at the creamy golden lion cub. "You know Evans...I would of thought you as someone brave and not a coward"
Evans frowned. "I'm not a coward"
The creamy lioness cub rolled her blue eyes. "Whatever you say"
Evans glared at Sarafina before leading the other cubs to distract Zuzu. Once the the purple hornbill was well distracted Sarafina, Sarabi, Kiran and Mufasa ran towards the graveyard.
-O-
The four young lions made it to the graveyard and was in awe.
"This is creepy"
Mufasa nodded in agreement. "Same here in agreement. So who goes first?"
Kiran shifted his gaze to the creamy cub."Sarafina. Since it was her idea"
Sarafina rolled her eyes before walking a few feet into the the graveyard before sitting and smirked at the others. "Next?"
Mufasa huffed before trotting off a few feet away from Sarafina. The golden cub smiled before sticking his tounge at the older cub. But frowned when Sarabi trotted by and sat pass him.
"Come on Kiran or are you to afraid" Sarafina teased
Mufasa sighed deeply before glaring at the creamy cub. "Quit acting snobbish Sarafina." then the golden prince turned to the orange brown cub. "Come on Kiran, I won't let anything happen to you"
Kiran narrowed his green eyes at the younger cub. "I'm older than you"
Mufasa groaned before looking at his best friend. "That's not the point. I won't let anything happen to you"
Kiran looked unsure. "Promise?"
"Promise"
Kiran sighed before walking further into the graveyard. Sarafina grunted as Sarabi and Mufasa cheered. Kiran was crossing a log when the rotted wood snapped, sending the orange brown cub falling into a hole. The three gasped before running over and looking in.
"Are you okay?" Sarabi asked her orange eyes wide with concern
Kiran groaned before looking around and sighing. "I can't get out"
Mufasa was about to say something when they heard crazy laughter. Kiran became scared immediately.
"Mufasa...what's going on?"
"Mufasa we got to go" said Sarafina
"We can't leave Kiran"
Sarabi sighed. "We have to or we'll get killed. We'll get our parents"
Mufasa sighed in defeat before looking at the hole his friend was trapped in.
"I'm sorry, Kiran"
With that said Mufasa followed the older females out of the graveyard ignoring Kiran's pleas for help with a heavy heart.
