A/N:Snowsong of SnowClan-Oh. Thank you it means alot.

Teddi 8347-Kari is Kiara and Kovu's son. Also sorry about that.

CSIMentalistTLK lover-I actually feel bad for Kiara when it all blows out. But at least she will have some shoulders to cry on.

Disgraceful Prince

Kovu turned to see what striked fear into his son. Where his blue eyes narrowed at at the sight of three lions. Kovu growled and bared his teeth as he stood protectively in front of Kari and Kyra. The oldest of the three, a light brown lion stopped with the other two stopping at his flanks. Before laughing lightly at the stance.

"Calm down before some one gets hurt" then a mischievous glint shined in his amber eyes as he smirked. "And I'm not talking about us"

Kovu sneered. "Who are you and what do you want?"

The rogues chuckled before the light brown lion replied. "I am Tanabi and we are Pridelanders returning home"

Kyra's eyes widen as she looked at the three lions. Kovu wasn't sure what to do as Kari looked curious from behind his father's legs. Before any more words were spoken a loud roar rang through the air. They all looked and seen half of the pride running over with Kiara in the lead. Kiara followed by Simba walked over where they stood in front of Kovu. Kovu growled as he was being showed up.

"Who are you?" Kiara demanded

The three lions looked up and seen two hornbills flying over. A dark golden lion walked over where he stood by Tanabi.

"I'm Kopa. I use to live here before I was attacked"

There was alot of gasped behind the golden lioness. Kiara looked at the male hard before growling.

"That's impossible!"

Simba looked grave before he nuzzled his daughter, earning her to look at him. As Kiara looked into the same amber eyes as her own. She seen everything and knew who the others were. Kiara nodded before turning back to Kopa.

"I'm sorry Kopa. I understood that you must have met up with my brother and friend."

Kopa nodded with a smile. "I'm sorry...I didn't get your name beautiful"

Kovu growled ccausing Tanabi and Khairi to snicker. Kiara blushed lightly as Simba cleared his throat.

"I am Queen Kiara. Well tomorrow any way. But it's good to see you, Kopie"

Kopa smiled charmingly which earned Kovu to snarled. Kiara rolled her eyes before looking at the lionesses that followed. Which was, Vitani, Imani, Sarabi and Sarafina.

"Let's head back. And prepare a feast for the return of our three pride members"

Vitani and Imani nodded before running off to gather more lionesses to hunt. While everyone else lead Kopa, Tanabi and Khairi back to Pride Rock.

~O~

Kiara watched from the edge of Pride Rock the reunions. Nala, Simba, Kyra and Khairi were to the side with Jolina in Kyra's paws. Kari sat between his grandfather's large paws. Under a shaded tree was Hatari and Kopa, who kept smiling up at her. Nearby was Armani, Kula, Chumvi, Tama, Tojo, Kamaria and Tanabi. Kiara smiled at them but deep down something felt like it was missing. A clearing of a throat made the golden lioness to snap out of her thoughts. Kiara looked and seen a not so happy Kovu.

"May we talk"

Kiara frowned upon the tone. It wasn't a question like it should be been. But she got up and followed her mate. Not seeing the frown appear on the dark golden lion's face.
