A/N: Mufasa, Sarafina, Scar and Sarabi (meh) are in this one. I do not own The Lion King.

Sarafina found herself nuzzling her crying daughter, trying to calm her down as the tears spill down her muzzle. "Oh, it's okay, Nala. The cubs will grow out of it soon, I assure you."

"But...it's b-been going on since I was six months old, M-Mom." Nala sobbed, her small body shaking. Sarafina's ears perk up at the familiar footsteps walking towards the mother and daughter duo.

"Sarafina? Nala? What's going on?" Prince Simba asks, looking at his friend crying.

"Prince Simba." Sarafina gently bows her head to the prince. "Nala's being bullied...agian."

The anger in Simba is clearly visible; it looked like a dark red circle surronded him; the colour of anger.

"Is it the same cubs as before? Tiala, Msaada and Kihah?"

"Y-yes." Nala sobs out, her body still shaking.

"I'll be right back, 'la." Simba said, before stepping out the cave, growling.

"Mufasa?" Sarabi's voice rings out as Scar walks in the cave with his sister-in-law and his nephew.

"Yes, Sarabi?" The king stands up and nuzzles his wife, then gives his brother a nod. Simba slinks back into Scar's leg.2

"Simba was yelling at the female cubs agian." Scar tells his brother; who glares down at his son.

"They were bullying Nala!" Simba defends himself, his teeth bared. Sarabi and Mufasa smirk.

"So, Simba, why did you want to he...SIMBA!" Sarabi asks, then yells, as Simba walks off.

"Wait there Mom. TIALA! MSAADA! KIHAH! LEAVE NALA ALONE!" Simba yells, then turns to his mother. "You were saying?"

"Doesn't matter." Sarabi smirks wider, as Simba leaves the den. She turns to Mufasa. "I think I've found his bethrothed."

"Who?" Mufasa smirks.

"Nala."
