I don't own the Lion King

Sarabi gasped and jumped backwards when she saw a lioness from her pride falling down from a cliff. The red eyed lioness looked up as she heads a high pitched cackle. It was a hyena and it looked down at the lioness that it had killed. Sarabi turned her head to the right as she saw a hyena charging its way towards her. Mufasa leaped in front of Sarabi and hit the hyena with the back of his paw. The hyena staggered backwards as it fell on the ground.

"I have to find mom and dad!" Sarafina shouted through the commotion as she ran towards the attacked pride.

"Sarafina no!" Ahadi boomed but the young lioness had already ran into the battlefield.

Sarabi saw her best friend running into the danger zone "I have to help her," she whispered to Mufasa as she went after Sarafina. Her paws smacked against the ground as she jumped on top of a small cliff, only to have it blocked by another hyena.

"Going somewhere kitty-cat?" he growled at her.

Sarabi bared her teeth at the wild dog as she charged towards him. She opened her mouth and grabbed his neck. The hyena was caught off guard. He was too slow to react to Sarabi's attack. He felt her teeth sinking into his neck as she broke his flesh. In a matter of seconds, the hyena was dead. Sarabi dropped the hyena as she turned her body to the right and went to look for Sarafina. She looked over her shoulder as she saw Mufasa, his parents, and his brother fighting the hyenas that were willing to attack them.

"Sarafina where are you?" she called out. She jumped on top of another cliff but when she did, she saw a figure of a cream colored lioness sitting on her haunches, looking at something on the ground. "Sarafina, don't run away like that!" she snapped at the younger lioness. Once she approached, she saw a furry corpse lying on the ground.

She stopped in her tracks when she found her mother lying in a pool of her own blood. She had been bitten in the neck and them slashed across the abdomen by a hyena, no doubt. "Mother," Sarabi whispered as she nuzzled her mother's snout with hers. Her mother's head softly landed on the ground.

Sarafina shook her head as her eyes filled with tears. Mother was dead, so were the lionesses in the pride, but where was father?

A chocolate colored lion with a black mane and green piercing eyes peeked over the two lionesses. He smirked at what he saw. A devastated princess and a frightened friend. The hyenas proved themselves useful for once. He had gained their trust and he had another secret yet devious plan that he was willing to execute in the days to come. He turned his back on the lionesses and slithered away.

After dealing with the last hyena, Ahadi scoured around the land to make sure there weren't any others running around. He gave his family a nod as they went to look for Sarabi and Sarafina. As they climbed the cliffs, there were bodies of dead lionesses and hyenas lying about.

"The poor pride," Uru whispered in a sympathetic voice as she looked from body to body.

"There they are," Ahadi pointed out as he saw the two young lionesses. The royal family walked over to them.

Sarabi's ears perked up as she heard footsteps behind them. She turned her head and stood up on her paws when she saw the royal family approaching. Mufasa saw her gorgeous red eyes filled with sadness. He didn't like seeing this lioness upset.

"We are sorry that this has happened to your pride," Ahadi told them with a sympathetic nod.

"Thank you your majesty," Sarabi bowed her head as a small tear escaped from her eye.

Sarafina suddenly turned around and faced them. Her eyes were also glazed over with tears, making her blue pupils look huge and shiny. Amar did feel sympathy for her but it wasn't as strong as Mufasa's sympathy for Sarabi. He still liked her though but he just wanted to get to know her a bit more.

"Surely the king and queen are fine," Ahadi said.

Sarabi shook her head as she bowed it to the ground again. "The queen is dead," she answered as she and Sarafina stepped away from the dead queen.

Ahadi and Uru gasped when they saw the queen murdered in cold blood. Uru suddenly turned her eyes away from the sight. She sadly shook her head at all of this.

"And the king as well?" Ahadi asked them.

"We couldn't find him," Sarafina answered, "either he is dead somewhere or he fled."

Ahadi took a deep breath when he heard that. A king never abandons his pride when they are under attack. Surely this king was a coward than a good king.

"My father would never flee," Sarabi told Sarafina in a mild harsh tone.

Sarafina shut her mouth and looked at her best friend. She knew that it was a foolish thing for her to say such a thing. After all, Sarabi's father had been the one to adopt her when her parents were killed. "I'm sorry," she apologized.

"You know," Ahadi said, "you girls are more than welcome to join our pride."

When their father said that, Amar's eyes brightened as he looked over at Mufasa who gave a wink in return. This was going to be great for them. Two girls that they liked would be in their pride and maybe small things will happen along the way.

Sarabi and Sarafina looked at the King of the Pride Lands. This was such a huge offer and it would be their honor to be in their pride that had a prince and a brother which was something that both girls liked, thought Sarafina was a little reluctant to be around Amar and his attitude.

"We should give your mother a proper burial," Ahadi suggested.

"That would be wonderful," Sarabi answered as her, Sarafina, Uru, Amar, and Mufasa helped put the dead queen on Ahadi's back. The King of the Pride Lands carefully jumped off the small cliffs, careful not to drop the body. When they reached the ground, the six lions dug up a chasm where Ahadi slowly put the queen in. After doing so, they buried her with the dirt.

"Great Kings of the Past," Sarabi whispered to the blue sky, "please protect our mother and father, wherever he is." With those last words, Sarabi and Sarafina put their paws on the dirt where they left their paw prints to let their mother know that she would always be with them and they would always be with her.

After the burial, Sarabi and Sarafina followed the king and queen of the Pride Lands. Sarabi looked at the grave one last time. She was curious to know who the culprit behind all of this was and why.
