Author's Note: CSIMentalistTLK lover; Yea Sarafina was one sick cat. Poor Kiara and Dameil. The song I used is Broken Road by Rascal Flatts.

"I-" Dameil sighs before looking into Kiara's eyes,

I set out on a narrow way many years ago

Hoping I would find true love along the broken road

But I got lost a time or two

Wiped my brow and kept pushing through

I couldn't see how every sign pointed straight to you

Kiara gasped as the words that came out of Dameil's mouth. But she smiled lovingly and joined in,

Every long lost dream led me to where you are

Others who broke my heart they were like Northern stars

Pointing me on my way into your loving arms

This much I know is true

That great kings and queens blessed the broken road

That led me straight to you

(Yes they did)

Dameil stopped singing and looked at Kiara. Kiara looked into his blue eyes before getting up and walking off a bit. Then she turned her head and smiled,

I think about the years I spent just passing through

I'd like to have the time I lost and give it back to you

But you just smile and take my hand

You've been there you understand

It's all part of a grander plan that is coming true.

Dameil smiled as he sang as he stud up,

Yeah.

Kiara smiled and walked back to the golden lion and nuzzled up against his black mane as they sang together,

Now I'm just rolling home

Into my lover's arms

This much I know is true

That great kings and queens blessed the broken road

That led me straight to you.

Kiara and Dameil stare into each other's eyes as they sang from their hearts,

That great kings and queens blessed the broken road

That led me straight to you.

A month went by and everything went back to normal, well almost normal. As the sun began to rise, the pride began to wake and start their day. Da'Shawna stretched and yawned. She saw her mother walking out of the cave for her morning walk.

"Mother!" Da'Shawna yelled as she ran over to the queen

Sherise smiled and nuzzled her daughter, "Morning"

Da'Shawna nuzzled her mother, "Morning, can I come with you you for your morning walk?"

Sherise smiled, "Of course"

The two lionesses walked down the rocky steps and into the savannah.

"So mom, do you think we will ever see dad again?"

Sherise looked down, "I hope not"

Da'Shawna nodded and looked back ahead. As they were walking towards the watering Da'Shawna stopped and ran to a nearby bush and threw up.

"Sweetie are you alright?" Sherise asked as she ran over

Da'Shawna turned towards her mother and the queen took a sniff and stepped back.

"What's wrong, mother?"

Sherise smiled, "You have a new scent to you"

Da'Shawna was confuse as she tilted her head.

Sherise smiled as her eyes shined, "I'm going to be a grandmother"

"Balto!"

The young golden lion was walking with Thresh when Jetta ran over.

"Jetta, what's wrong?" Balto asked his reddish brown eyes full of concern

Jetta caught her breath and said "Da'Shawna's preagant"

Balto couldn't believe his ears, "My sister is going to be a mother?"

Jetta nodded her head.

"I'll kill that wolf!" Balto growled before running off

"Balto!" Jetta yelled as she ran after her fiancee

Thresh shook his head before turning to continue his walked when he touched noses with someone.

"Ohhh"

Thresh shook his head and saw a pair of pretty green orbs staring at him. He moved his eyes down and saw that the eyes belonged to a beautiful young light golden lioness.

Thresh blushed, "Um...sorry Sierra"

The light golden lioness giggled, "No problem"

Thresh smiled, "I was just walking...um...would you like to join me?"

Sierra smiled which made the light cream lion melt, "I would love that"

Months past and the cubs started to grow into their teen stages. Malka has grown to be a few inches shorter than all the adult males. He has a black mane starting to form. Macy is a few inches shorter than the adult lionesses. Kogan is the same height as Malka with the beginnings of a dark brown mane and muscals starting to form. What handsome prince he's becoming.

Also there's a new member that's starting to walk and talk.

"Mama! Mama!"

Da'Shawna was lying by the water hole when a 11 week old dark red pup with a black tuff and dark brown eyes came running over.

Da'Shawna smiled as she nuzzled her son, "Had fun with your cousin and uncle"

The pup nodded as his eyes shined, "Yea! Cousin Henderson told me about how he helps grandma Sherise and grandpa James! Uncle Balto taught me how to pounce!"

"Oh, you know who's the best the pouncer?"

The pup shook his head as he looked at his mother with excitement.

"Well that would be me"

Da'Shawna and her son looked and saw Kogan smiling.

"You are Uncle Kogie?"

Kogan chuckled as he ruffed up his nephew's tuff, "I'm sure am. If its ok with your mother, I'll give you a few pointers"

The pup looked back at his mother with bright, pleading eyes. Da'Shawna chuckled as she nodded her head.

"Yea!" The pup shouted as he jumped around his mother

Kogan chuckled, "Come on whirlwind"

The pup laughed before walking off at the pale golden prince's side.

In the Outlands as things have been harsh, Cullen and Jermira have been growing beautifully. Cullen is a few inches shorter than Simba and his father, Avan. The dark grey teen has a black mane growing. Jermira is almost as tall as Jamena, her golden fur brightened and her eyes has changed to mirror her sire.

"Ahh, isn't my daughter looking as lovely as ever" purred Simba as he and Avan was patrolling

Avan nodded, "I bet if she wasn't your daughter, you take her"

Simba looked at the cream lion a new glint formed in his eyes; lust, "That haven't stopped lions before"

Author's Note: Ok, I'm going to have to change it to T. But Simba is one sick bastard! Thresh found someone again. Da'Shawna and Carlos had their son. Also the song, did it fit? Tell me what you think.
