*3 day later*

It has been 3 days since Kions and Fuli relationship was announced, and there were some animals who didn't like it. One group tried to go after the Fuli family. Little did they know that Kion made sure that they had security. So moral of that story, don't go after the family of the Emperor's girlfriend.

Love day was in 11 days and Kion was getting things ready. Kopa saw Vitani. "Okay, here goes nothing." Kopa said. He walked up to Vitani. "Hey Vitani, how are you doing?" Kopa said. "I'm good." She said, "So love day is almost here, that's something." Kopa said. "Yeah, I guess so." Vitani said, not getting what Kopa was getting at. "So do you have a date?" Kopa asked. "Nope."

"W-well I was, um, w-wondering if you might w-ant to go to the c-celebration with me?" Kopa said,`Oh yeah real smooth Kopa.` He thought in his head. "Wait, are you asking me out on a date?" Vitani said. Kopa nodded. "It's about time." Vitani said. "Wait what?" Kopa said, confused. "You are terrible at keeping secrets."

Kion was talking to Simba and Janja about something when Kovu walked in. "Um, Simba, Kion, can I talk with you guys, alone?" Kovu said. Kion nodded to Janja, Janja left. "What do you want?" Kion asked. "So you see I was wondering if I could be allowed to ask Kiara out.

It was silent for a moment. "Well, let's see, um, no." Kion said. "Kion, you do remember that she is my daughter." Simba said. Kion just rolled his eyes and left. Now it was Kovu and Simba. "So you want to date my daughter?" Simba asked. Kovu nodded. Simba thought for a moment. "Fine. But I'm putting my trust in you." Simba said. "Thank you Simba."

"So this will be our first love day together." Fuli said to Kion. "Indeed my love." Kion said. He put his arm around Fuli and fell asleep.

Fuli on the other hand was thinking about the recent attack on her family. She is also worried about how her sister will be around her. She knew her relationship with Usisi would never be the same. But she had an idea about how to keep her family safe.

*The next day*

Kion woke up to Fuli's nose touching his nose. He smiled, and she smiled back. "Morning Fuli." Kion said. "Morning." She said back.

He was about to get up when Fuli asked, "Hey is it okay if we just stay here for a little while longer?" Kion smiled and nodded. They stayed together for another 10 minutes until they started to get hungry.

Kion left to get them food. "Okay so how should I do this? Hey Kion, is it okay if my parents stay here? No, no, that wouldn't work." Fuli said to herself. "What wouldn't work?" A voice said. Fuli turned around to see a female hyena. "Oh, sorry, I didn't mean to scare you." She said, "No, it's fine. Your Jasiri, one of Kion's generals. What are you doing here?" Fuli asked.

"Oh, well me Kiara, and some others are having a girls night, and I thought maybe you might want to join." Jasiri said. Fuli thought it might be a good idea to get to know her. "Okay. I think it might be fun." Fuli said. Jasiri told Fuli where and when it was before she left.

Kion returns with a wildebeest. "Was that Jasiri that I saw?" Kion asked. "Yeah, she just asked if I wanted to join her in a girls night out." Fuli said. After they ate they decided to take a walk around the pride lands.

After a while Fuli asked Kion, "Hey Kion, would it be okay if my family, for their protection, stayed at Pride Rock?" Kion looks at Fuli. "What?" Kion asked. "Well a group of animals did try to harm them earlier this week." Fuli said. Kion thought of it for a second. "Okay, but you have to make sure that they know what they might see at Pride Rock." "I will Kion." Fuli said as she nuzzle her boyfriend

*Later that day*

Fuli was leaving for her girls' night out. "Bye, I hope you have fun." Kion said to Fuli. She smiled and left. After a while Kion looks at the stars. He locks his eyes on a diamond formation. And remember his travels.

*Flashback*

(~Music version of I can go the distance playing in the background.~) A younger Kion walks out of the pride lands. He looks back at his home, and continues walking. He is then seen meeting Janja and Jasiri, who were fighting about something. Now we see Kion leading the hyenas, a black lion symbol on his shoulder. He is then attacked by a snake and bitten in the eye. We then see a teenage Kion with his mane growing, with more animals with him. Kion and some members of his army get to the tree of life. He meets Rani and she leads them into the tree. Kion's face turns from a smile, to an evil grin when she turns.

(~The music changes to Kylo Ren theme music~) We then see Kion's army attack, and the tree on fire. Kion stands over the prince of the night pride, trying to hang on to the branch. The prince has fear in his eyes as Kion digs his claws into his paws like Scar did with Mufasa. Now we change the scene to Kion getting more animals into his army. Meeting Shezi, Bezin, and Ed, and their pack of Hyenas. Then he met Kopa. And then he walked through a burning human village, an evil smile on his face.

*Flashback ends*

Kion sighs at those memories. "Please, Lions of the past. Don't let Fuli know what I have done." Kion said as he looked up at the sky. Fuli gets to where she was told to meet them. She sees them and runs over to them. "Hey." Fuli said. She sees Jasiri, Kiara, Vitani, Zuri, Nala, and Shezi. "Oh, hi Fuli." Nala said.

They talk for a while. "So, what is it like dating Kion?" Vitani asked. "Oh, well, it's nice I guess." Fuli said. "Nice would be an understatement, I mean, when you two become mates, that means you will become the empress." Jasiri. Fuli never thought of it like that before.

"Speaking of relationships." Shezi said as she looked at Jasiri. "What?" She asked. "I'm talking about you and my son, Janja." Shezi said. Nala, Fuli, Zuir, and Kiraia said, "He's your son." "Yeah. But back to my point when will we see you together." Shezi asked. She wasn't that big of a romantic, but she sees how those two are together. "Oh enough with romance." Zuri said. She ran away with them all confused.

She ran for a while then stopped. She just didn't want to talk about love, especially with Fuli around. Because she stole the man of her dreams, Kion. She always had a crush on Kion, even though she was mean to him from time to time. "Why do I never get what I want." She said.

*Song starts*

Zuri: I'm so tired of pretending. Where's my happy ending? I followed all the rules, I drew inside the lines. I never asked for anything that wasn't my. But when he finally came, he called her name.

Zuri starts to walk

Zuri: And now I feel this overwhelming pain. I mean it's in my veins. I mean it's in my brain. My thoughts are running in a circle like a toy train. I'm kinda like a perfect picture with a broken frame, I know exactly who to blame. I never thought of myself as mean. I always thought I'd be the queen. And there's no in between. 'Cause if I can't have that, then I would be the leader of the dark and bad. Now there's a devil on my shoulders where an angel used to be, and he's calling me the queen.

Zuri looks at pride rock.

Zuri: Being nice was my pastime. But I've been hurt for the last time.

She puts a paw over her heart as she says that.

Zuri: And I won't let anyone take advantage of me. The anger burns my skin, 3rd- degree. Now my blood is boiling hotter than a fiery sea. There's nobody getting close to me.

Zuri imagens herself as a Queen with animals bowing towards her.

Zuri: There's a devil on my shoulder now. And he's saying I'm the queen of mean

*Song ends*

A sound behind her makes her turn. She tries to see what made the sound. A pair of green eyes watches her. "Who's there?" Zuri asked. The figure watching her gets up and walks out of the grass. The figure was a black panther. Zuri steps back a bit. "Who are you?" She asked. The panther says, "I am T'challa." "What do you want?" She asked. "I am looking for Emperor Kion." He said.

"Are you a friend or a foe?" Zuri asked. "We hope he will see us as friends." T'challa said. "What do you mean, we?" Zuri asked. Then a bunch of other Panthers show up, then some Komodo Dragons, Skinks, Porcupines, and Jaguares should show up. "We want to pledge our loyalty to him." A Panther said. Zuri thought of something for a moment. Then she had an idea.

"Well it's a good thing I ran into you guys." Zuri said. "Why is that?" T'challa asked. "Because till a couple hours ago, I was to be Kion Empresses. But then a witch in the form of a Cheetah got into his mind. She made him think he loved her, and then made him banish me." Zuir lied. She didn't know what got into her but she didn't care, she wanted Kion. Plus she thought Empress Zuri had a good ring to it. "Wouldn't the army stop her?" A Skink asked. "Sadly they too, were brainwashed. I ask for your help to defeat this witch." Zuri said.

"Group huddle." T'challa said. Then he and the rest of the animals got into a group huddle. Some of them had to stand on the back of some. Whispers were heard. Some look back at her to check if she was trying to listen. After a while they got out of the huddle and T'challa walked over to her. "We will help you."
