Chapter 12

Akiri's P.O.V.

By the time we had both reached pride rock Katie's face was covered in blood, and it was still pouring out. It had stained onto my fur. I took a little more care coming up the stone steps, she wasn't holding on and I didn't want her to fall off and get more hurt. I finally took a breath as we made it to the top with even ground. I walked into the den where most of the lionesses where. Thank the kings Kovu wasn't in there, he would probably kill me for allowing their ' little girl get hurt. Luckily her mother, Queen Kiara, was in there, she immediately got her off my back and nuzzled her trying to wake her up. She turned to look at me and told me to run and go get Rafiki.

Kiara's P.O.V.

When Akiri bought Katie in with the big wound on her head my heart dropped. I helped Akiri get her off her back and then told him to go get Rafiki. When he left both my parents ran in after being told what was going on by one of the lionesses. Daddy left to go get Kovu and mom stayed to help me with my daughter. I started cleaning up the blood on her head, it was still bleeding when I had it cleaned up. Akiri soon returned with Kovu he walked over to where Katie was propped up on a rock. He nuzzled her and gave her a loving lick on her face then turned around with a furious look on his face. " what were the both of you doing"? the poor boy looked so scared, but this fear might tell us what happened to our daughter. "Ummm, well you see sir, we were, uhhh,". I could see Kovu getting more and more agitated with Akiri the more he dragged the story out. "Just tell us what happened" my father said to help keep the peace within here. "We went to monkey falls to jump off the waterfall", he finally said, but his eyes told us there was something else he was not telling us. "you both know you are not supposed to be jumping off the waterfall there" Kovu said getting into Akiri's face. "yes sir" he replied looking down. "we were goofing off and I dared her to jump off from the top ledge" he said still not looking up from the ground. "You both know that you are to stay away from there" I said, seeing as Kovu was about to lose it on him. "Why don't you go wait outside, Akiri" I said. "yes your highness", he said with a nod with his head. As he was walking out Rafiki thankfully was walking in to check on Katie.

Katie's P.O.V.

I knew I was in a dream there was no doubt about that. I seemed to be walking on clouds in the sky, all I could see around me was endless cloudy skies. It was so beautiful around me and I failed to see my mom and dad in front of me. They looked just as I remembered them all those years ago. Just as suddenly as they appeared in front of me they started to disappear in front of me. "NO" I shouted reaching out to them, "MOM" "DAD"! "MOM" !

I was still shouting 'mom' as I came out of unconscious in the den at pride rock. Both of my adoptive parents were looking at me with concern on their faces. "I'm right here sweetie," mom said giving me a hug and lick on my check. " you took a pretty hard fall there" Rafiki said making sure the leave bandage was still on my head. " You shouldn't have no serious damage, but I will be back in a week to check on you", he said as he left. Then there I was alone with my parents with now stern looks on their face and my grandparents with equally stern looks on their faces. " Young lady" said my dad, " how many times did we tell you not to go to monkey falls"? he asked. But, before I could even answer he went into a long rant and gave me a whole speech on how bad I could have been hurt. I really was not listening I was just waiting for my punishment to come already. Finally I just decided to interrupt and save the trouble and ask " so how long am I grounded this time", I said. "One week and you are not to leave the cave without an escort" he shouted at me this time I seem to have really made him mad. Mom was at this point trying to calm him down. I just got up and grabbed my fading backpack with my stuff, and walked to the cave entrance. "Just where do you think you are going" Dad shouted from behind me. "I am going down to the river to wash up or is that part of my punishment that I can't bathe!" I shouted back. " Yes, but you can take Zazu with you" he said. Zazu got up from his perch and flew to my shoulder I turned and walked away from all of them just wanting some air and mostly space.

Walking down to the river was peaceful with Zazu flying ahead I really felt alone ( even though I was not). Ever since I came here I felt like that I never got some alone time I was never treated like a adolescent like I wanted to be treated but more of like a baby. I was tired of being treated this way and just wanted it to stop. When we arrived at the river I stripped off my clothes and wade into the river cleaning off the dirt, sweat, and dried blood off me. Then I floated on my back in the water just enjoying the peace and tranquility. Zazu was sitting on a rock by my bag by the shore, I noticed the sun starting to set and I got up and went and got changed into another set of clothes, a set of blue jean shorts and a white tank top. I felt fresher in a new set of clothes and set to washing my old set of clothes before the sun set completely.

When I was done Zazu perched himself on my shoulder and we both walked back to pride rock. Arriving I noticed that everyone was at dinner eating what appeared to be an antelope, I just decided to go straight to the den and go to sleep so I wouldn't have to face anyone or my family. I was sure that everyone had heard about my adventure and would be wanting to ask questions.

Walking in the den the only souls that were in there were Timon and Pumba sleeping in their usual corner. I didn't take long for me to hit the pillow and fall straight to sleep for me it had been a long and exhausting day indeed.
