WARNING: YAOI boy/boy romance ( the worst thing is nuzzling) so no adult content or cursing.
It has been two months since the day Ito was born. He is still an active cub that is now starting to want to explore the world. That is what Simba feared the most.
Ito woke up nuzzled in his mother's neck. He stretched and yawned. Everyone was stretched out and still sleeping so he decided to sneak out of the cave and go outside. When he got out he saw that it was still was dark outside. He saw fireflies fling down past the rock and was about to go chase one when he reminded himself, what has dad said. He has told Ito not to leave Pride rock without permission. So he lay down and watched them fly around instead. He must have dozed off because when he woke up again he was back in the cave. Alone. He trotted to the entrance and looked out and he didn't see anyone. He then remembered the fireflies. But it was light out. So there would be no chance he would see anymore. But he still wanted to go exploring. So he ran to the edge of Pride Rock to run downstairs but he bumped into something hard.
"Where do you think you're going young man?" Simba asked his son.
Sitting on his haunches, Ito responded "Looking for you." He lied and said with his amber eyes.
"Mmmhmmm. Ito you know how I feel about you leaving Pride Rock without permission. If you leave without me knowing you can easily-"
"Be trampled, captured or even get lost. I know, I know. I just want to go explore. Can I go please?"
"Ito be respectful to your father." Nala said suddenly appearing.
"Okay I'm sorry Daddy. Can i-"
"Ito you can explore when Timon and Pumba come back. Or you can go with Zazu." Simba said as he interrupted his son.
Ito thought about this for a second. Timon and Pumba were slow and would never stop talking. Zazu would make sure he listened to all of Simbas rules. He then thought of who would be the easiest one to get rid of. "Where is Zazu?"
Simba responded "He is on that branch over there." He motioned with his head. Ito walked over to the branch with Simba and Nala in tow. "Zazu, Ito wants to go explore. Will you take him around for a while and follow my rules then bring him back here before dawn?" Simba asked.
"Of course sire. We will be back before you know it." Zazu said flying to the ground in front of Simba and bowing.
Ito didn't even say anything as he ran down the hill to the Pride lands. Zazu was quick behind him. Ito had to think quickly about how to get rid of Zazu. He decided on a fool proof plan.
"Hey Zazu look at that over there." Ito motioned with his snout.
"What are you talking about little one?" he turned his head to see what he was talking about. And just as Ito was about to run for it Zazu turns his head back to Ito. "I didn't see anything."
"It must of disappeared or something." Ito responded quickly. He realized that plan was not fool proof. It was made for a fool.
"So this exploring you're doing where are we going to?" Zazu asked.
"Oh I don't know." He thought of a lie quickly, "I don't want to explore anymore I want to play hide and seek."
Zazu looked at him puzzled. "Well than you should have asked the rodent and the pig to come out here with you to play that hooligan game?"
Ito knew he definitely wanted to get rid of Zazu. "Please Zazu." He asked with his big watery eyes and pouting lip.
"All right, all right." He then mumbled, "Anything to get me away from you."
Ito smiled, "Start counting ill hide."
"Just make sure you stay a good distance. Don't wonder too far." Zazu said worriedly.
"I won't." Ito said with a chuckle. He ran and ran. He wanted to explore somewhere new. So he ran to the place he has never explored before. To the place his father warned him not to go to. The Outlands.
