I really appreciate the reviews. They make my day or night. I have to a, I feel pretty bad for Kiara as well. Now here's chapter four, enjoy.

"Alyssa!"

The creamy beige lioness was sitting near the edge of a cliff when Jamali walked over. Alyssa dipped her head for the russet lion to continue.

"The lionesses and the others want to know the plan."

Alyssa looked from the setting sun to her ally, "I'll be there in a moment."

Jamali nodded before walking away. Alyssa looked back to the sky and closed her eyes, Don't worry my beloved, you're about to be avenged! Alyssa snapped her brown eyes open and with a snarl she got up and went to where the lionesses and the others were waiting. There in a clearing, near the border was a group of lionesses. From fifthteen to twenty lionesses and a few males not including Jareb and Jamali, from different shades of color stood, sat or laid.

Alyssa walked over to Jamali, Jareb and Vitani and sat. "I know you all are wandering what's the plan. Simple we take down Kiara, by weakling her."

"How are we going to do that?" asked a dark gray lioness with muddy brown eyes.

Alyssa smiled evilly at the dark gray lioness, "We take away the most precious things to her," then at the rest, "Her daughter."

At Priderock

The sun has risen and Kiara had already left to do her queen duties as Kopa left to do his kingly responsibilities. As the rest of the pride was awake getting ready for their day as some was preparing for the morning hunt. Out of the cave ran Princess Almasi, the golden peach cub ran down the slope of priderock with a gleam in her dark green eyes. She giggled as a pretty blue butterfly landed on her nose. The peaceful moment was ruined when Almasi heard someone or something step on the grass. The sudden movement of Almasi turning her head caused the butterfly to flutter away. The sound of snarling caused Almasi to snap her head from the disappearing insect to the tall grasses.

"Who's there?" Almasi didn't get a response and it didn't feel right to the future queen. "Faraji? Jax? Alana? This isn't funny!"

A dark laugh erupted through the air before Alyssa made herself known. "Why so spooked?"

Almasi knew Alyssa but that didn't ease the feeling that something wasn't right. Her feelings was confirmed when a bunch of unknown snarling and snarling lionesses appeared from the tall grasses behind Alyssa. To small to fight, so flight. With a a sharp turn Almasi bolted through the plains.

"Get her!" Alyssa snarled before running after the princess with her followers.

Almasi ran as fast as her legs would run. Her throat started to tighten as her lungs began to burn. She could feel the pads of her paws scrape and tare as they pounded against the hard ground. She knows it's life or death but she could feel the adrenaline leave her system as her body began to shut down from exhaustion. She didn't know where to run but knew she had to hide somewhere. But unfortunately as a new burst of energy and adrenaline ran through her veins the golden peach cub felt herself being lifted off the ground.

"Let me go!"

Alyssa chuckled darkly before she growled and tossed Almasi. The cub flew through the air before landing hard and tumbled across the dusty ground. Alyssa avanched as her followers surrounded the area, the creamy beige lioness snarled before striking the young cub, sending her rolling before she stopped in a cloud of dust. Almasi looked up with a busted lip and her right eye was shut as four claw marks ran down her face. Alyssa laughed before she hit the cub again, her claws digging deep into Almasi's side. Almasi rolled through the dirt and glass, landing on her uninjured side with a moan. She could barely lift her head before Vitani emerged from the crowd, she walked up and gave the young princess a hard swipe. Almasi tumbled like a cart wheel before landing on her injured side, breathing heavily as blood stained her golden peach fur. Alyssa and Vitani shared a look before nodding.

"For Akan!"

"For Father!"

At the same time Alyssa and Vitani struck Almasi sending the now unconscious princess over the edge of a cliff they were near and into the rushing river below. A loud roar caused the lionesses to look up to see Kion run over. The golden yellow lion ran over just in time to see the river swallow his niece.

"Noooo!" Kion looked at Alyssa and Vitani with a burning hate. He roared at them but it wasn't his normal roar.

The clouds formed into heads of roaring lions. Kion's roar knocked Alyssa, Vitani and their lionesses back. When Kion stopped Kiara and Brandt was there looking at him with wide eyes.

"Where did you learn to do that?!"

Kiara shook her head before looking at Kion. "We heard your roar. What's wrong?"

Kion couldn't say anything. He lowered his head and cried. Kiara and Brandt shared a look before looking at the lionesses that was getting up. One of them being Alyssa, who laughed when she saw the queen.

"You're too late!"

Kiara frowned, but she had a very nasty feeling. "Kion, what is talking about?"

Kion sniffed up some tears before glaring at Alyssa and Vitani with disgust. "They killed Almasi!"

Kiara's orange eyes widen before shaking her head. She didn't want to believe that but that was until she saw the blood on the two lionesses' paws. "Where's my daughter!?"

Vitani chuckled. "Taking a swim with the fishes."

Kiara snarled before striking Vitani across the face. "I want you out! You and everyone that's loyal to you! If you come back...you will wish you hadn't!"

Alyssa narrowed her brown eyes. "You'll regret this day Kiara!"

Kiara snarled as Kion and Brandt followed the group to make sure they leave. Kiara looked over the edge of the cliff and at the rushing water. The golden orange lioness closed her eyes and sobbed.

TLKTLKTLKTLK

The moon shined brightly against the dark sky as the stars sparkled. A cool breeze went through the land, swaying the grass back and forth. Along with with a wind, the breeze carried the sound of weeping. Kopa had returned to priderock hours ago with the rest and informed the pride of the devastating news, of their future queen. The pale golden lion sat at the peak as the night's breeze blew by, ruffling his fur and dark brown mane as well as carry his mate's cries. It was depressing, heartbreaking. It pained him for more than one reason. He just lost a child, Almasi was so excited about having another cousin after finding out a few weeks ago that Echo was pregnant. Then his mate, it claws his already shredded heart.

"Kopa..." the pale golden lion turned to see his mother. "What are you doing out here? Shouldn't you be with Kiara?"

Kopa sighed heavily before nuzzling the goldish lioness. "It hurts mother. It hurts like hell."

Edina embraced her son as tears fell from her eyes. "I know, sweetie. I know." Edina sighed before moving some of Kopa's mane away from his eyes. "Go. She needs you."

Kopa watched his mother enter the cave. With a deep breath he headed down the slope back towards the horrible scene. When he got to Kiara she was the same as he left her. Kopa lowered his head before he walked over and nuzzled her.

"We'll get through this."

Kiara nodded before sighing. "It hurts. Terribly. There's no amount of words that can explain how I feel." Kiara looked up with teary eyes, "...but she wouldn't want us to grieve...especially since..."

Kopa nuzzled the golden orange lioness for her to go on. "Since what?"

Kiara took a deep breath before replying. "Kopa, I'm pregnant again."

Kopa couldn't put a paw on the emotions that was running through him. He was going to be a father again. With a heavy sigh he smiled, Kiara was right. They need to move on...it will take time and it will be hard but at least they'll have Simba and Almasi watching over them.

The Oasis

"Haha! Try and catch me slow pokes!" laughed Orville.

"You with regret does words!" a bright golden cub yelled as he ran after the retreating dark beige cub.

"Can't we...take...a break!" wheezed a grayish-beige cub.

The cubs along with a grayish-brown cub laughed before running to a near by river. Once Orville got there a gasped escaped his mouth. The other cubs shared a look before running after their friend and what they saw made their eyes widen.

"Remi! Go get my mother!" Orville yelled.

The grayish-beige cub ran off without another word. As the bright golden cub and the grayish-brown cub walked over to the source of the shock. There lying near a large rock in the cold water was a damp golden peach cub. Both Orville and the bright golden cub gently pulled the unconscious cub out of the water and headed for a cave with the grayish-brown cub following.

"What's going on?"

Orville and the other two cubs looked to the entrance and saw Ororo with Remi.

"Mom! We were playing when we seen this cub." Orville informed his black pelted mother.

The older lioness walked over and gasped.

"Is she..." started the grayish-brown cub walked to her side.

Ororo shook her head, "She's alive."

Just then the cub groaned earning the attention from Ororo and the cubs. When the cub's dark green eyes landed on the adult lioness and four cubs, she shrunk back.

"Little one you don't have to be afraid. We're here to help." Ororo said gently.

The cub looked around with confusion, "Where am I?"

"You're at the Oasis pride." Remi answered.

"Do you know what happened?" the grayish-brown cub asked.

The cub shook her head, "I don't even remember my name."

"Well you can't go off alone. You will have to stay here." Ororo said with a sigh.

"But mom, what will her name be?"

Ororo thought for a minute before looking at the cub. "Bahiti."

The bright golden cub looked at the new cub, "Fortunate and blessed? A perfect name for her."

Ororo smiled before looking back at the cub, "What do you think?"

"I like it," she whispered but the other cubs and Ororo heard her.

"Now if you're going to stay here, you're going to know who we are. I am Ororo," then she pointed her nose to the dark beige cub, "This is my son Orville," then she looked at the rest of the cubs, "The grayish-beige cub is Remi, the grayish-brown cub is Kela and the golden male is Aden."

Bahiti nodded, "Its a pleasure. Thank you for taking me in. "

Ororo nodded, "Rest and when you awake, we will show you around."

Bahiti nodded before yawning and closing her eyes.
