AN: Snowflake; Thanks I'm glad you liked it but. But I'm sure Simba does feel bad, just he was upset that Kula did what she did.
TMNTMentalistLK lover; I"m sure he does. Thanks for reviewing.
"Everyone please can I have silence," Simba said. Once everyone had quited down the king continued, "Thank you. Now what Nala just said is the truth. As well for me and skye. We all mated a few days back and even though it wasn't planned it did make us realize how much we care about each other." Simba stopped and looked up at his mother, Kula and Malka who were just staring at him with wide eyes. "The only regret we have is hurting you three," Simba said. "Kula you are my mate and my queen and more importantly you are the mother of my son for which I will always love you. But I think that I was never really in love with you. I'm sorry."
"Malka and Sarabi I'm sorry too," Nala said lowering her eyes in shame. "I never meant to hurt you. I should have told you how I felt a long time ago." then she turned to the dark beige lioness. "I'm really sorry that I hurt you."
Sarabi grunted before moving further into the cave.
Skye looked at Kula and lowered her head. "I am too."
"It's okay Nala," Malka said softly after taking a deep breath. "I've felt the same way. In fact Kula and I have something to tell you guys. Don't we Kula?" Malka looked over at Kula when he said this last part his blue eyes serious.
"Well I uh I.." Kula stuttered not quite sure how to begin.
"Kula and I mated too," Malka said quickly. This caused the gasps and muttering to begin again.
"What?!" Nala and Simba cried at the same time.
"When did this happen?" Simba asked his orange eyes wide with shock.
"Right before we made up," Kula said quietly. "It just happened."
"Kind of like with me and Simba huh?" Skye said with a laugh. "I can't belive you Kula. All this time you've been being a total bitch to me for mating with your mate when you knew damn good and well that you had mated with Nala's."
"Yeah well I'm sorry about that," Kula said not looking at Nala.
"So what do we do now?" Malka asked.
"Rafiki is it possiable to do an unmating ceremony?" Simba asked looking up at the aging mandrill.
"Yes it is possiable," Rafiki said. "But in order fer Skye to become yer mate you must first announce dat Kula will no longer be queen to de kingdom. Only den can Skye be allowed to be yer new queen."
"Wait what about Kopa?" Kula asked suddenly. "I don't want him to lose his right to be heir to the throne."
"Kopa will always be the heir," Simba stated. "He is my oldest son therefore it is his birthrght to be king and that's the way it's going to stay."
"Agreed," Skye said with a smile.
"Well I'm glad that's settled," Vitani said with a sigh. Just then Timon came onto the scene along with Luna both of them lookng a bit disshevled.
"Where have you two been?" Simba asked with a smile.
"We were uh just making up," Timon said quickly smoothing out the fur on top of his head.
"You mean making out don't ya Timmy?" Luna said with a giggle giving Timon a big kiss on his cheek.
"Jeeze not in front of everyone sheesh," Timon said blushing.
"Wait I thought she was on Kalma's side," Pumbaa said counfused.
"I only helped her 'cause I was afraid she'd eat me if I didn't," Luna confessed. "I'm really sorry. Please forgive me King Simba."
"It's alright Luna you're forgiven," Simba said smiling at the female meercat. "If Timon likes you then so do I."
"Thank you King Simba," Luna said smiling. Just then the group heard a low groan.
As they were looking the group saw that Nuka had opened his eyes.
"Nuka!" Vitani and Zira cried out running over to the teen and nuzzling him.
"What's going on?" Nuka said his voice a whisper. "How'd I get here?"
"We brought you here sweetheart," Zira said gently. "You were knocked our during the battle. Don't you remember?"
"Oh yeah," Nuka said with a groan. "Me and Mhew were fighting a whole bunch of them when suddenly I felt something land on top of me. Then it all went black."
"Yeah you scared me pretty goood ther Nuk'," Mheetu said. "I thought you were dead there for a minute."
"Nothing can keep my uncle down," Kovu said proudly getting between Nuka's paws and nuzzling aganist his chest. "Right uncle?"
"Right buddy," Nuka said giving the top of his nephew's head a lick.
"Well if you get de proper rest den you should be just fine in a few of weeks," Rafiki said. "You all three should." The mandrill looked of Simba and Jabari when he said this last part. "Dat means no getting up fer any reason. Understand?"
"Yes," Jabari, Simba and Nuka said together.
Just then the group heard a loud comotion coming from the opposite side of the cave. Turning their heads the group saw Scarafina and Nunzi rolling on the ground the two young ones biting and clawing each other.
"What in the world is going on here?" Nala asked breaking the two up.
"I'll tell you what goin' on," a lioness from Kalma's pride piped up. "That hyena started a fight with Scarafina for no reason."
"That's not true," Sherise and Kiara shouted jumping to their friend's defense. "Scarafina started the whole thing. She started calling Nunzi all kind of nasty names. Then she hit him."
"Yeah," Nunzi chimed in. "She's mean. Just like her mother."
"At least my mother isn't a whimp like yours!" Scarafina shouted.
"You take that back!" Nunzi shouted lunging at Scarafina only to be stopped by Ed who grabbed his son and pulled him back saying,
"No son she isn't worth the trouble. Just let it go."
"Your father's right," Shenzi piped up. "Besides I think it's time we were leavin' this place anyways."
"You're leaving?" Simba said sounding disappointed. "You don't have to leave."
"Yeah we kind of do," Shenzi said. "Look Simba it ain't that we don't appricate the offer but we were tryin' to get Kalma off our turf and now that we have done that we're gonna gather my brother and the rest of of clan and head back. We're more comfortable there anyways."
"Well you can come back anytime," Jabari said. "As long as you don't over do it when it comes to the hunting."
"It's a deal," Ed said with a smile. "Come Nunzi say goodbye to your friends."
"See you guys," Nunzi said with a wave.
"See ya," Douglas Kovu and Kopa said sounding sad. Kiara, Furaha and Sherise couldn't even get any words out because they was already crying.
"Kiara don't cry sweetheart," Malka said pulling his daughter close. "You can go play with Nunzi anytime you want."
"Really?" Kiara sniffled wiping her eyes.
"Of course," Nala said putting her paw around her daughter. "And he can come here anytime too. Right guys?" she said looking at the king and prince.
"Right," Simba said as he and his brother smiled at the female cubs.
"Cool!" Kiara exclaimed her blue eyes lighting up. "That makes me feel better."
"Thanks Uncle Simba!" Furaha cried excitedly before buring her head in her uncle's red mane.
With that the hyenas bid their new allies goodbye and headed off to the Outlands.
"I can't believe I'm about to say this," Malka said as he watched the hyenas leave. "But I'm going to miss those guys."
"Me too," Simba said with a sigh. "Well at least we won't have to worry about them causing us any trouble again."
"That's true," Nala said sitting down beside Mufasa. "But what do we do about her?" She pointed towards Scarafina when she said this last part.
"I'm sorry I started that fight," Scarafina said quickly. "I was just angry. I'm so confused. I always thought that you were a terriable lion, King Simba and you too Prince Jabari. But you don't seam so bad now that I'm actually talking to you. Maybe my mom was wrong."
"I'm glad to hear you say that young one," Jabari said smiling at the young cub that remind him of the lioness he fell in love with before she went off the deep end. "But you must remember to control you temper. Can you do that?"
"Yes sir," Scarafina said. "I'll do my best."
"Good," Nala said smiling at her niece. Then the creamy lioness turned towards Kula and Malka and said, "Are you guys sure you're okay with us four becoming mates? It's okay if you're not."
"You know at first I was really angry," Malka said. "But the more I think about it the more I realize that maybe we rushed into getting married too quickly."
"I was thinking the same thing," Kula said. "It's almost like the wrong lions ended up together. Wierd huh?"
Mufasa nodded before giving Nala a nuzzle.
"What are you guys talking about?" Kiara asked confused.
"I know what they're talking about," Kopa said looking angry. "Your mom is in love with my granpa and Ms. Skye is in love with my dad. So they are getting divorced, so is your parents and my grandparent. Then Ms. Skye and my dad are getting married."
"So Mufassa is going to be my new daddy?" Kiara asked looking up at Nala her blue eyes filling with tears.
"Of course not honey," Nala relpied.
"Yeah I will always be your daddy no matter what," Malka said giving his daughter a nuzzle. "And your mom and I will always love you Kiara. No matter what."
"Think of it this way," Kula said gently pulling Kopa towards her. "You'll get to have two mommies and two daddies. Won't that be great?"
"I guess so," Kopa said quietly. "But does this mean I'm not going to be king?"
"No son," Simba said. "You'll always be the heir to the throne. No matter what."
"But what if you and Skye have a son?" Kopa asked. "Will I still be the heir then?"
"Kopa no matter what happens you will always be my oldest son," Simba said pulling his son towards him and giving him a nuzzle. "Therefore as the oldest you will always be the heir to the throne."
"Good," Kopa said with a smile. "Then I'm okay with you and Skye getting married."
"As I'm okay with you and Mufasa getting married." Kiara said smiling at her mother.
"I'm so glad to hear you both say that," Simba said smiling at the two cubs. "Rafiki how soon can you do the cermonies."
"As soon as you are healed," Rafiki said. "Which should be in about a month. Maybe six weeks."
"That long?" Simba asked with a groan.
"If you want to be able to stand during de ceremony in front of de kingdom den yes," Rafiki relpied.
"Don't worry Simba we can wait until then," Skye said giving Simba a nuzzle. "We want to be sure that you don't hurt yourself more."
"I guess so," Simba grumbled. "But six weeks seams like a lifetime to me."
"It'll be worth it I promise," Nala said giggling at her cousin.
With a slight nod Simba layed his head down and went tried to get some sleep hoping the next six weeks would fly by in a hurry.

Jabari had managed to stand and limp towards the peak. He had a lot of thoughts in his head and needed fresh air. He was happy for his father, brother and friend. But now he felt alone, he thought he would grow old with Kalma. But is left to raise their daughter alone.
"Hey. Are you so pose to be out here?"
The light beige lion looked and smiled lightly at the tawny beige lioness. "Hey, Ufisa. I'm sorry I haven't got the chance to say hi."
Ufisa nodded before looking over the kingdon. "I never did want to leave. But I had to go with my mom but I never stopped thinking about you."
Jabari looked at the lioness besides him and smiled before he turned his eyes towards the kingdom as Ufisa leaned on his shlouder. Jabari sighed in comtept before closing his eyes and laid his head on Ufisa's.
