Chapter 25

"Oh my!" said Vitani.

"Let's get her to Pride Rock and maybe we can talk." Said Kiara.

Kiara and Vitani helped the lioness up and walked back to Pride Rock. Once they got into the coolness of the den, Nala came in.

"Who's this?" she asked.

"Mom, we don't know yet but it seems like she is dying of starvation." Said Kiara.

Nala knew exactly what her daughter was asking.

"Zebra or antelope?" asked Nala.

Kiara looked back at the lioness.

"Zebra." Said Kiara.

"One large zebra coming up." Said Nala.

"Thanks Mom." Replied Kiara.

"Kiara, come here." Said Vitani.

Kiara walked over to where Vitani and the other lioness were. She sat down in front of them and spoke.

"What is your name?" asked Kiara calmly.

"My name is Kira. I hope I am not a bother to you." She said.

"No of course not." Said Kiara. "My name is Kiara and this is my sister Vitani."

"Hi" said Kira.

"So, just a few minutes ago, you said you were looking for your daughter named Imani." Said Kiara.

"Correct." Said Kira. "Has she been here?"

Kiara and Vitani looked at her.

"Actually, she has. But she ran off after a small fight with a lioness named,"

"Tasha." Said Kira.

Kiara's eyes widened.

"You know her?" asked Vitani.

"As a matter of fact I do. We were best friends as cubs. We came from the same Pride." Replied Kira.

"Wait a minute Kira. My mother is back with some food for you. Please, eat something so we can continue our conversation." Said Kiara.

"Yes ma'am. Thank you."

Kira got up and walked towards the fresh Kill Nala had brought.

"Thank you." Said Kira to Nala.

"No Problem." Said Nala as she walked to Kiara and Vitani.

"So, what happened? What's her name?" asked Nala.

"Her name is Kira and we just found out something very interesting about her." Said Vitani.

Nala was puzzled and said, "What?"

"Kira is Imani's mother." Said Kiara.

Nala's mouth dropped. About five minutes, Kira was finished eating. She sat down with Kiara, Vitani, and Nala, to finish her story.

"Please continue from where you left off Kira. And please, take your time." Said Kiara.

"Ok. When Imani had just been born, Tasha was furious at the fact that I had given birth to a girl." Said Kira.

"Why?" asked Vitani.

"Truth be told, I do not know. All I remember is Tasha coming to me and saying that we are no longer friends. I asked why and she didn't give a straight answer. All she did was growl and walk away. A few days later, Tasha and I got into a fight. I was severely injured and Tasha convinced everyone to leave me. And that's just what they did. Taking my daughter Imani, with them."

"And you never saw Imani again after that?" asked Nala.

"No. I've been searching for years, trying to find my daughter. I haven't had any luck." Replied Kira.

"Well, maybe you will have luck here." Said Nala.

Kiara, Viatni, and Kira all looked at Nala with confused faces.

"Mother, do you know something I don't?" asked Kiara.

"I sure do. But I don't wanna say it just yet. All I have to say is that Kira needs to stay here in the Pride Lands, with us, at Pride Rock." Said Nala.

"But she needs to search for Imani." Said Vitani.

"Searching, is unneeded."

And with that Nala left the den, leaving confused Kiara, Kira, and Vitani with confused faces.
