-central pridelands, 18 miles from pride rock-
"Dad, what now?" Daniel asked his father.
Daniel's dad was in deep thought. "i dont know Son... But it will be filled with Drama and shenanigans..."
Daniel looked outside, and saw many animals dealing with overpopulation, and food shortages, the outlander's attack had caused mayor damage to the pridelands.
3 minutes later, they finally arrived at the Division's hiding spot, only a mile from the frontline, which was now calm and quiet...
Daniel Shivered. "What happened to the animals, that lived there?"
"they were evacuated..." Daniel's father explained. "But the ones that didn't... they were massacred by the outlanders..." he nearly cried, Which took Daniel by, suprise, he hadn't seen His father cry... in a while...
this caused Daniel to get emotional too, and they both hugged each other, and stayed like that for 2 minutes...
"I-i miss H-her" Daniel sobbed...
"its okay..." Daniel's father sobbed, as he stroked his son's hair. "I miss her too..."
after they calmed down, they exited the car, and walked up to the Soldiers.
They hid the fact that they just had an emotional moment, and put up a smile, but the soldiers had noticed, and they all gave the two, empathetic looks.
"Heh, Good day soldiers!" Daniel's father said, as the soldiers greeted them back.
He and Daniel walked up to commanded thomasson, who was standing in front of a Tank.
"Hey there!" The commander greeted.
"Hello Commander!" Daniel's father said, as they shook hands, the commander then shook Daniel's hands too.
the commander, Frowned and stared at the horizon. "These Animals are nothing more but scum... they killed so many innocent souls..." he got a little emotional but held it in... he wasn't going to cry in front of anyone, he didn't wanted to make anyone worry.
Daniel's father Frowned too. "Yeah, its just awful,i mean, why would you do something like that?"
commander thomasson, nodded in agreement, and spoke softly. "We've been trying to retake the lost territory... but we failed, there's just too many... i don't know if we will ever be able to recover from this... Hellish war"
Daniel spokes talked this time. "And thats why we're here, to put an End to this! Plus, the pride and the lion guard are underway, AND..." he looked at his father. "...and i'll fight too... Right dad...?"
Daniel's father sighed. "Just be careful."
Daniel gave a promising smile, as he walked off to the car.
-time skip 10 minutes-
Finally, the pride and the guard arrived, and they were greeted by the Humans.
as they talked, Kion noticed Daniel, sitting alone at his car, he looked pretty sad, Which made Kion, confused so he approached him.
"is there any room for a lion?" He joked
Daniel was really focused on his thoughts, but still heard Kion's request to sit with him. "Sure"
Kion sat next to Him and tried to start a conversation. "So, How's your Day?"
Daniel spoke. "Fine I guess..."
"are you feeling any better? Since you escaped capture?" Kion asked.
"yeah..."
Kion frowned, something was up. "Hey Danny, whats wrong?"
Daniel didn't respond. "Listen, we might know each other for only a few days, But you can talk to me about anything, let it out dude."
Daniel sighed, and responded. "It all started when i was 12"
-4Years ago, North America-
"I lived a normal life, nothing weird or anything crazy... but you know...
...you know my Dad, but...
...My mom...
...one day we went one a vacation to Africa, to see the beautiful landscape, My mother, he rented a jeep... but once we were far away from the city, my Mom stopped, cause she had to pee, she did her business, but when she walked back..."
Daniel sobbed.
"...a Leopard appeared behind her... you know the rest..."
"...she was buried in Our home city, and since then my Dad, has an obsession with animals, and he wants Revenge on the evil ones, so he joined this program..."
-flashback ends-
"i hadn't seen my Father cry since my mom... but just ago, he did, and i got emotional too..."
Kion, was shocked and concerned for Daniel, "Whats going on?" A male voice spoke.
...it was Simba...
"Dad, Daniel here, has a similar past, like yours..." Kion said. Which caused Simba to get confused, however, he quickly realised. "Your Mother...?"
Daniel just sobbed.
Simba sat down next to him. "Daniel, i'm so sorry for your loss, the truth is, I experienced the same, before Humans arrived, my father was killed, by my evil uncle, and he blamed it on me... i ran off and met Timon and Pumbaa, who now lives here in the Pridelands, they raised me, and teached me a wise lesson, after i grew up, i met Nala again, and after some personal stuff, we went back together with Timon and Pumbaa, and overthrew my uncle, Scar." He explained.
Daniel was surprised Simba had a similar story, and stared at the ground.
then Kiara And Nala joined in with the chatter.
"Whats going on?" Kiara asked.
Kion explained, them what happened. "No one deserves to go through this..."
"You poor thing." Nala said, as she comforted Daniel, Simba Kion and Kiara followed Suit.
"at least, we Re-met in the jungle." Nala explained.
Simba grinned. "Yeah, and we felt the love that night."
Kiara, was disgusted. "Ewww, Mom, Dad, why? Just why? You ruined the Fucking moment." She declared, but Simba and Nala just laughed. And Kion grinned. "Watch your language Honey!" Kovu laughed from the distance, he had been chatting, with a Few Humans, so he didn't notice them earlier.
"just wait until your a little older Kiara" Nala joked.
"ugh, mom..."
Kion laughed. "And what about you Daniel?"
Daniel groaned. "Im just 16"
"that is still young for a human, your not ready yet." Kiara said.
Suddenly, the soldiers were Ready for battle, and Daniel's father came up. "Everyone, get ready! The enemy is approaching!"
Daniel catched a glimpse of Animals on the horizon, and they were approaching, quickly.
"Shit!" Daniel grabbed his pistol, and got ready. "Here we go."
-outlands lair-
"you're doing great... our army is beating the pridelanders, and these, Cute Humans too..." the Hyena Queen, smirked. "After that, i want to finish, Jasiri's Clan too... these traitors, helping the enemy."
another voice spoke. "I am the biggest genius, of the Savannah, Nobody can break me... But remember: you might be the Queen, but the one who's Really in Charge here, is ME!"
the Queen, Looked down dissatisfied. "Yes, you are..."
she walked around, and smiled, knowing that they were literally about to win, the west had been conquered and annexed, soon the pridelands would capitulate, and the Humans would follow suit.
still, Despite how Cute and weak Humans look, she must not underestimate them... there Guns could easily kill, and there Tanks were Undestroyable... It was kinda weird to her, that the weaker looking species, are usually the stronger ones.
she then, looked at her Leader. "So, do we Execute phase 3...?" She asked.
"execute Phase 3"
she grinned at the answer she got.
"understood"
