Thanks for the reviews. I really don't like Caleb either.

A few weeks passed and things have calmed down...a bit. Kion has left a unstable rift in the pride. After the rest of the pride caught wind of what happened to the four young lionesses. More chaos erupted, it was like with Scar all over again.

But life must go on. The next day, Simba invited the rest of the guard and this time, Kiara, Anna and Hamilton down to the waterhole. There Simba announced the new leader was going to be Hamilton. Not because of the blood flowing through the now two year old veins but because he showed courage more than once and knows when it's a great time to fight.

There was some disagreements, but Simba stood by his decision. After all his father and all the other great rulers of the past gave their blessing. Now Prince Hamilton was the new leader of the Lion Guard.

On the day that marks the third week since Kiara was assulted, the year and seven months lioness currently at the waterhole drinking when she was suddenly joined.

Kiara had looked up just to see a day older dark cream teen lioness that she thought hated her. "Tiifu?"

Tiifu rolled her pale green eyes before moving around the other side of the waterhole to stand in front of the chosen heir. "I'm not going to beat around the damn bush. I need your help."

Kiara blinked a few times, trying to figure out if she was imagining things. Ever since they were young cubs Kiara thought they were out for her. She knows that Zuri's mother was a follower of the queen, who definitely hates her and to be frank, she's not to keen on Nala either. And because she's with the lion she currently fell in love with.

"Kiara!"

The golden orange teen lioness shook her head and looked at the other young female. "Oh sorry. Did you say something..."

Tiifu's eyes held a bit of concern as they landed on Kiara's pale face. She took a reluctantly step forward for Kiara to take a step back. The golden orange teen swayed before she rushed off towards a nearby bush.

Tiifu raised a eyebrow frowning. Kiara wipped away the saliva off her muzzle before moving her teary brown eyes up as she flopped down.

"Kiara. I know that you don't want to hear this, least of all from me but you're pregnant."

Kiara starred at the queen's niece in horror. Sweat began to formed as she started to stuttered. "Hhhhow do you know?"

Tiifu sighed before helping Kiara up. "Because I'm pregnant as well. Two months along."

Kiara couldn't believe what she heard. She shook her head before standing up. "Walk with me towards Rafiki's tree."

Tiifu nodded before walking besides Kiara as they headed towards the sherman's tree. When they got there they were greeted by Bambi instead of the crazed, but wise mandrill.

The creamy gold teen was absolutely confused to see her friend with Tiifu. "I'm surprised to see you around Kiara. Change of a heart?"

Tiifu glared before sighing. "The things that Zuri is willing to do isn't what my parents wanted. Plus, I miss hanging with my brother. On a plus side, Kiara is not bad at all."

Kiara smiled warmly at her new friend before looking at Bambi. "Is Rafiki around?"

Bambi shook her head. "He was called away to assist the king. I'm here because I'm training to be a Sherman. I know the basic. So what do you need?"

Kiara shared a look with Tiifu before turning back to Bambi. "I need a confirmation."

Bambi instantly understand. Nodding her head, she waved a white color paw over the ground in front of her. "Can you lie down?"

Kiara obeyed and laid on her side. She jumped a few times as Bambi ran her paws over her body to stop at her lower stomach.

Bambi stood and took a deep breath before nodding. "I'm afraid that you are in deed pregnant."

Kiara's eyes budged as tears instantly fell. Whatever hope she had of ever being with Simba died down. Sure the cub was his grandcub but he wouldn't want her, she's tainted.

...

During the past three weeks, Kion and Bunga had been traveling non-stop. Only breaking for a moment of rest and scavenging of bugs here and there. With the lack of the proper nutrition and rest, things started to get hazy.

Therefore the two runaways didn't notice that they were headed for a area with weak ground support. When they did, it was too late. Kion and Bunga fell in a pit that the ground made as it began to crack and open up. Debris and sand fell in on top of them, knocking them unconscious.

Kion didn't know how long they were there. Just that he was the first one and the only one to wake. He dug his greyish friend out from under the rocks and boulders, but the way Bunga fell, it broke his neck. At least he died without suffering. He, on the other hand had a sprained paw.

It was past noon when a gloomy show fell over the hole he was in. Kion looked up to stare into a pair of bright green eyes.

"Hey. You okay down there?"

Kion shook his head. He didn't know the last time he had water but he knew that his voice was a no go. But the figure on the surface had disappeared and returned with a vine. Kion grabbed the dark green vine and made a tricky climb up with a sprained left paw. But eventually, he made it to the top where he collapsed on his stomach.

That's when he got a pretty good look at his savior. The figure was a stocky golden lion no more than a bit over two years old. He had a large mix color mane of brown and red.

"You okay kid. Anything broken?"

Kion shook his head before raising his left paw. The lion looked at it and understood. So he gently placed the golden yellow teen on his broad back before slowly moving away from the death trap area until he reached a plain of grass where he broke of until a run.
