"That's fantastic!" Simba cried, nuzzling his mate.

"I'm going to be a big sister!" Kiara cried as she jumped up.

Kopa smiled. "That's great, Mom." He said.

"Come on, let's go to Rafiki's to see how everything is." Simba suggested.

Kopa smiled as his parents started for the wise monkey's tree.

"I'm going to be a big sister!" Kiara repeated.

"Come on, let's go get a drink." Kopa suggested.

Kiara was bouncing as they walked to the waterhole. They were nearly there when they ran in Timon and Pumbaa.

"Timon, guess What?!" Kiara cried. "Mom's having another cub!"

Pumbaa lit up. "Really?!"

"Ah, great! Another one!" Timon face palmed. "Let's hope it takes after his mother."

"I just hope it's a brother." Kopa said.

"Eww! Not another one! I want a sister!" Kiara said.

Kopa rolled his eyes as he backed away, leaving his sister with his uncles as he walked to Pride Rock.

A new cub? The thought was certainly thrilling, hopefully it would be calmer then Kiara.

He was nearly to Pride Rock when he noticed Sarabi walking. Kopa raised an eyebrow before glancing at the gathering clouds. Why would Sarabi be out during this time? With a storm approaching?

"Grandmother!" Kopa cried as he raced to meet her.

The old lioness turned. "Kopa-"

"What are you doing out here? Didn't you notice the storm?"

Sarabi nodded. "I was just going to go for a walk."

"Want me to come?"

The lioness chuckled as she nuzzled his nose. "No, grandson, it is better you stay here."

Kopa frowned. "When will you return?"

Sarabi glanced over her shoulder at the land. "I don't know."

The young lion hung his head as Sarabi smiled. "I love you, Kopa."

"I... love you too, Grandmother." Kooa replied, slightly confused.

Sarabi nodded as she turned and walked away, leaving Kopa alone.

TLK

The rain was starting to fall as Simba and Nala raced back to Pride Rock.

Once there, they found Kopa waiting at the mouth of the den.

"What are you here?" Nala asked her son.

"Waiting for Grandmother. She said she was going for a walk." Kopa explained.

The King and Queen exchanged glances.

"In the rain?" Nala asked.

"That's what she said."

Simba frowned, worridliy. "How long ago was this?"

"An hour or two."

Simba swallowed as he walked passed his son into the den to where Zazu was resting on a rock.

"Zazu, Sarabi is missing. She went out a few hours ago and hasn't returned. I wamt you to rally the pride and meet me at outside."

"Yes, sire!

"Mom, what's wrong?" Kiara asked as she walked up.

"Nothing, sweetheart." Nala assured. "Come on, it's time for your bath."

"Aww, mom!"

Normally, Kopa would have laughed, but thos was not the time. Instead, he followed the pride outside to where Simba was pacing.

"Sarabi is missing, we're going to send out three search parties. Some of you will come with me and we'll search the North Border. Zazu, you'll take a group and search the south border. Nala," Simba said, noticing his mate walk up. "You take a group to search the West. Let's go!"

"Dad! What about me?" Kopa asked.

"You stay here!"

Once the pride had split and gone, Kopa headed down Pride Rock to begin his own search in the East border.

The rain was coming down harder then before as Kopa raced through the land.

"Grandmother!" He cried through the thundering rain.

Suddenly he came upon a ditch and skidded to a stop. He peered his eyes into the darkness and caught sight of something familiar.

Kopa wasted no time in jumping in and sliding down the side of the wall. Mud gathered on his fur and in between his paws as he came to a stop.

There, in the ditch, Kopa saw it, a familiar tan coat, lying lifeless in the mud.

"Sarabi." Kopa whispered. "No, no!" He cried. Panicked, Kopa roared to alert the pride.

When a roar was returned, Kopa turned to his grandmother and sobbed as he fell to her side, crying out to the spirit of the great kings to bring her back.

It wasn't long before Kopa heard voices and Simba appeared. His eyes fell on his mother as he slid into the ditch and used his nose to lift her chin, but nothing happened.

"Send for Rafiki!" Simba cried.

Nala frowned as she walked up to her mate. "Simba, she's gone..."

Simba swallowed as he looked from his mate to his mother. Then he fell to the ground, sobbing

Kopa stood and went to stand next to his mother while Simba grieved.

TLK

Later that night, the pride had gotten Sarabi back and had planned to bury her once the rains had let up.

Kopa had not forgotten his meeting his meeting with Vitani so, once his family was asleep, the golden lion snuck out once more, his destination being the Elephant Graveyard.

The rain was still falling once he reached the border between the graveyard and pridlands. With careful steps, he made his way in to one of the empty skulls to be free of the rain.

"I wasn't expecting to see you, honestly."

Kopa turned to see Vitani jump from one of the eye sockets.

Once she had shaken her fur of water, she turned and noticed the tearful look in Kopa's eyes. "What's wrong?" She asked.

Kopa cleared his throat. "Nothing."

The cub tilted her head, but pressed no further questions, instead she smiled. "Come on, I want to show you something."

Kopa smiled as he followed.

Vitani led him to an odd area where green steamed blew from the ground.

"Whoa!" Kopa gasped.

"I know! Mother told me about this place a long time ago, said hyenas used to live here." Vitani smirked as she jumped onto a rock and began to drool. "Who am I, Kopa?" She asked before she began to walk in a funny way and laugh hysterically.

"A hyena!" Kopa laughed.

Vitania laughed as the two raced off to explore some of the cave.

As they were running, green steam suddenly burst from the ground, catching Kopa off guard and sent him stumbling down a small hill into a pile of bones.

"Kopa, you okay?" Vitani cried as she peered over.

Kopa hissed as he rubbed his eye and felt the warm blood from a cut above his brow. "Fine!" He assured.

Vitani giggled. "Come on, then! Want to show you something else!"

Kopa nodded as he climbed out of the bones and followed.

TLK

"What happened to your eye, Kopa?" Simba asked the next morning.

Kopa looked up from a zebra leg he had been chewing on and quickly swallowed a hunk of meat. "I scratched it...last night in the ditch."

"Want Rafiki to take a look?"

Kopa shook his head and Simba nodded before he stood. "I'm going for a walk." He said before exiting the den.

Kopa stood as well and followed after his father. The rain was still coming down, but not as bad as the night before.

"Dad? Listen, about last night, I didn't mean to dis-"

"I have to prepare the burial of the former queen, we'll discuss things later."

Kopa frowned as he nodded and watched his father leave.

A little while later, Kiara found her brother resting on a rock by the waterhole. "Hey, Kopa, guess what? Mom said I can help her with the cubs when they come!"

"Fascinating." Kopa said.

"What happened to your eye?"

"Nothing."

"Are you in trouble?"

"No."

"Is Dad mad at you?"

"Kiara!"

"What?"

Kopa sighed, seeing the hopeful face of his sister. "Come on, last one in the water is a monkey!" He cried as he leapt over his sister and into the waterhole.

"Hey!" Kiara cried as she followed in after him.

Sorry this is so late and a little short, but I hope you guys liked it!
