Kovu and Kiara walk out of the den.

Kiara ask "Kovu, was you going with your father to visit your father's pride?"

Kovu answers "yes."

Kiara says "I hope you'll have fun there."

Kovu ask "what do you mean by that?"

Kiara sighs "you'll be there for awhile and I'll be here missing you."

Kovu looks at Kiara's sad face and says "you know I can't go without you."

Kiara ask "you mean I get to come?"

Kovu says "yes, you have to make sure no other female cubs try to make me theirs."

Kiara and Kovu head down to the lion guard den to see Kion and the lion guard.

Kiara sees Kion and smiles at him.

Kion ask "what's up big sis?"

Kiara answers "Kovu got invited to go back to his father's pride for a few days and I can go with him, how about you?"

Kion smiles "that cool, nothing been happening around here lately. I sent all the hyenas into the river. The only ones left are Jasiri and her family members that sleep in here with us."

Kiara looks at her brother and ask "you let them lay in here with you and the guard?"

Kion answers "yes their part of my team. Dad wasn't too thrilled about it but I told him they earn my trust and put them under my care."

Kiara and Kovu head back to Pride Rock to see dad.

Maxis was descussing the trip back home with the king and queen and Zira about bringing Kovu with him to the pride.

Simba looks at Nala and Zira waiting for their answer.

Zira says "he can go with you."

Nala and Simba agree to it.

Kiara and Kovu walk in.

Maxis turns his head to see the future king and queen and says "Kovu guess, son?

Kovu ask "what's up?"

Maxis answers "your mom and king and queen said you can come with me to my pride for three days."

Kovu looks at him and ask "Simba and Nala, can Kiara come with me?"

Simba looks at him and replies "no."

Kovu ask "what if some female cubs try to pounce on me just so they can make out with me?"

Simba puts his paw to his chin thinking about it.

Nala says "you have a good point we can't have a female cubs have cuddle with the future king."

Simba smiles "okay Kovu, Kiara can go with you too."

Kiara and Kovu walk out of the den to play with the other cubs.

Kion and the lion guard join the cubs in relaxing.

Kovu tells them "me and Kiara are going to my dad's pride for three days."

Kion tags Fuli who tags Bunga who tags Rani who tags Kiara who tags Kovu but trips over a stick and tumble over into Kovu rolling over each other down a small hill.

They look at the bottom of the hill to see Kiara laying on Kovu.

Kovu ask "Kiara, can you get off me?"

Kiara shakes her head "no" and continue cuddling, taking in his scent purring.

Kion looks at his sister and smirks "hey Kiara, are you going to love on your mate or continue playing?"

Kiara blushes red at the smirk.

Kiara gets up off Kovu and both walk back up the hill to join the rest of the cubs.

Night time came and all the cubs head back to Pride Rock to sleep.

Maxis was waiting at the promontory for the cubs to come back.

Kovu and Kiara walk up the side of Pride Rock to sleep.

Next morning Kiara and Kovu woke up.

Maxis was waiting outside for them to head to his father's pride.

Kiara and Kovu said their goodbyes and head out.

They pass through Mar Pride heading to his pride.

Maxis tells them "I changed the name of my pride to Harmony Pride."

After a long journey there, they walk inside the den to rest for a little bit.

Sunset came Kiara and Kovu walk out of the den to go play.

Maxis walk out to join them.

Nia walk up to them.

Maxis looks at her and says "good afternoon."

Nia nuzzles him in front of the cubs.

Kovu ask "when did you two become mates?"

Maxis answers "after your mom left me to go back to be with Scar before he died."

Kiara ask "do you have any cubs yet?"

Maxis looks at Kiara and ask "do you have any cubs?"

Kiara answers "no I'm still a cub myself."

Nia smiles "well if you want to know we have a cub named Malka and Kovu he's your half brother just like Nuka was."

Kovu looks at ground thinking about his brother, then wonders if mom survived the river then maybe Nuka survived to but where would he be then.

Kiara ask "where is Malka at then?"

Nia looks around the pride wondering where he would be at.

Maxis says "he would be at the watering hole with his girlfriend and their friends."

Kovu walks over to the watering hole with Kiara to see four cubs talking to each other.

Lion cub notice them walking to them.

Kovu introduce himself "I'm Kovu and this is Kiara, my girlfriend."

The cub introduce himself as "Malka and this is Sabrina, my girlfriend. That male is Nate and his best friend Julie."

Kovu looks at them and says "it's nice to meet you all. Malka your my second half brother."

Malka ask "second? Who's the first?"

Kovu answers "his name was Nuka."

Malka looks at him and ask "your mother's name is Zira, who slept with my dad and decided to go back to her first crush Scar? So where's Vitani at?"

Kovu answers "she didn't want to come."

Kovu and Kiara walk back to the den to meet up with Maxis and Nia.

Maxis looks over to Kovu and Kiara cuddle up together.

Next morning, Maxis show Kovu and Kiara around the kingdom.

Kiara ask "do you have a healer here?"

Maxis answers "yes, we have a baboon name Riki. He has a cousin named Rafiki."

Kiara smiles and says "he lives in the Pride Lands back at home."

After the tour, Kovu and Kiara begin to walk to the watering hole.

Maxis ask "Kovu do you got a minute to talk alone?"

Kovu looks at Kiara and says "uh sure."

Kiara walk to the watering hole alone.

Kovu ask his father "what's wrong?"

Maxis sighs and looks at his son and says "your my first born which means... Kovu finishes I'm the future king of Harmony Pride."

Maxis nods his head "yes."

Kovu ask "what about Malka?"

Maxis answers "he was going to be the future king until I found out you was born so it's your birthright to the throne. I know Kiara is your girlfriend and you don't want to leave her to be king."

Kovu looks at the ground thinking about it.

Maxis comments "I'll leave you to think about your answer."

Kovu walks to the watering hole to see the cubs talking to Kiara.

Kovu smiles and says "hi guys."

Malka glares at his half brother and says "nice seeing you brother. Great to have an older brother to take his place as king of Harmony Pride" and walks to the den with Sabrina.

Kovu watches them walk away and looks at Kiara then looks at the ground.

Kiara whispers "did your dad just tell you something about the king position?"

Kovu nods his head "yes and said he knows how I feel about you."

Kiara tells him "Sabrina was looking forward to becoming Malka's queen."

Kovu and Kiara walk to the den to talk to his brother.

Malka was chatting with his girlfriend, when Kovu stood in front of him and says "brother, I want to talk to you both about king and queen."

Malka snarls "well we don't want to talk to you."

Kovu snarls "well then I guess you don't want to hear about being king then."

Malka looks at Kovu and ask "what are you talking about?"

Kovu answers "Kiara is the future queen of her home pride and I'm her mate. So your the future king here."

Malka ask "Kiara is a princess?"

Kovu answers "yes, dad didn't tell you?"

Malka answers "no, he told us she was just a normal cub in a pride."

Kovu sits down and tells them their story about how them met and fell in love.

Over the three days Kovu and Kiara got to know more about the cubs in the pride.

Afterwards they made their way back home stopping by Mar pride to say "hi to Marco."

Marco was making his rounds patrol Mar Pride.

Kovu and Kiara stop by to say "hi and ask how are things?"

Marco answers "good how are you two doing?"

Kovu and Kiara answers "great, we just came from Harmony Pride and we're headed back home."

Marco warns them "there's a rouge running around here, so be careful going home."

Kiara and Kovu started their trip back home when Kiara gets hit with a rock knocking her out cold.

Kovu panics "Kiara? Kiar-" before Kovu gets knocked out and left laying there.
