Here's chapter two and please review. Reminder that I don't own the Lion King, Disney does. So I decided to turn this into a sequel because I got an idea for one. I don't want to give up the ideas I had for those one shot chapters so I'm going to combine them in with this story. So the chapters are probably going to have some irrelevant family fluff and drama I guess but not too much. We'll see how things go from here.

Thanks to my reviewers for reviewing the first chapter:

snowflakexx: Yes it is sad that Shinda and Alex are unable to have a cub but they are happy that they can be the godparents of Kopa and Kion. They consider them cubs of their own so it's all good for them. Thanks for reviewing.

TMNTMentalistTLK lover: Yes, Kopa and Kion are pretty cute. I was hoping to present them that way. Thanks for the review.

balto90: Thanks for that idea. I'll keep it in mind if I ever get stuck. Thanks for reviewing.

Amber: Thanks for being such a loyal reviewer and reader. I really do appreciate it.

S-techno: Thank you and I'm glad you pictured it that way. Thanks for reviewing.

Anyways, here's chapter one and I hope you enjoy.

Simba had never thought cubs could bring so much happiness into his life. He couldn't stand to be away from Nala or the twins for long. He was always rushing back to Priderock after his duties so he could be with them.

One day when Kion and Kopa were about six months old, Simba was patrolling the border by the Outlands himself. Zazu had spotted rouge there yesterday and he wanted to check it out himself. Akila and Moraan had volunteered to come but Simba had sent them back to Priderock insisting that he would be fine by himself. Besides, he wanted Moraan to be with Tama since she had given birth to two healthy male cubs a few weeks ago. They had named the older one Tanabi and the younger one Ari.

Suddenly, Simba saw movement from some bushes a little ways off from the border and he hurried to it. To his surprise, he saw a male lion trying to limp away. With a growl, Simba stepped in front of him so he could get a good look at him. He knew he shouldn't be confronting a rogue by himself since there could be more around but he couldn't leave now.

"Who are you rogue?" Simba growled.

"What is it to you?" The lion snapped back. Simba took a good look at him. He had a black mane and a bit of a lanky figure. His fur was a dark brownish orange and he had piercing emerald green eyes.

"I'm the King of these lands and I want to know the reason as to why you are so close to our border." Simba hissed, narrowing his eyes.

"You're King Simba?" The rogue asked looking surprised.

"Yes and you are?" Simba asked.

The rogue stared at him for a minute. "My name is Moto."

"Alright Moto," Simba nodded. "Why are you so near our borders?"

"I was simply trying to catch a stray hare that was near your borders. I cannot hunt for my leg has been sprained."

"Where's your Pride?" Simba asked.

"I have a pride consisting of a few lionesses a few hours from here. We live in some caves in the Outlands." Moto answered.

Simba nodded. He had heard of this Pride from Zazu and it the information Zazu had given him matched what Moto had told him.

"Very well." Simba said nodding at him. "Thank you but I need you to leave our borders unless you are asking to stay with our Pride for a while." He looked at Moto but he shook his head.

"I was simply passing by. Some hyena took a cub from our Pride and we lead the searches out here. I'll be heading back now." Moto gave him a nod before walking north.

Simba watched as he disappeared into the horizon before he began to long walk home, eager to see his family. The sun had set halfway when Simba trotted into the royal den. Nala was settled down with Kion at her side while Kopa was slowly trying to crawl. He spotted his father coming into the den first and mewed and squeaked at Simba, trying to crawl towards him only to fall on his face.

Simba chuckled at his son, using his nose to roll him over onto his belly. "You need some practice don't you?" He licked the top of his head before picking him and placing him by Kion who batted his nose with his paws as Simba nuzzled his cheek. He then turned to his mate and rubbed his cheek against hers and gave her cheek a lick. Nala smiled as he settled down next to her.

"What took you so long at the border?" Nala asked. Kion dragged himself towards his father and Simba scooped him up with his paw and gently placed him at the top of his head. Kion let out a happy squeak. Turning his head to Nala, he explained what he had been doing and what the rogue told him.

"He doesn't seem like trouble." Nala said. "Don't worry about him."

"I know." Simba said. "I'm not worried."

"For once." Nala chuckled. Simba grinned at mate.

"You better be glad Kion is on my head right now." Simba smiled. "Or else I would have pinned you down by now!"

"Right." Nala nodded with a smile. "You pin me down." She rolled her eyes at Simba but licked his cheek before looking up at Kion who was giving his mother a wide grin.

"Come on sweetie." Nala pulled Kion off of Simba's head. "It's almost time to sleep." She placed him in her paws, bathing him all while Kion whined and squeaked at his mother, trying to tell her not to bathe him.

Simba turned his attention to Kopa who was lying between Simba and Nala.

"Why're you so quiet today, hmm?" Simba gently tickled Kopa's belly with his nose causing the little cub to laugh. Nala stopped bathing Kion and smiled at her other son before she picked him up and placed him at her side to feed.

"He must be tired. I took them to the River Pride today since you were busy. Kion stayed with me but Kopa was playing with Mheetu and Hofu." She smiled remembering the sight of her six month old son trying to crawl after her brothers. When he had failed to do so, Mheetu and Hofu had come back and gently played with him for the rest of the visit. Nala had watched them along with her mother from the shade of the tree. Kion didn't seem to like the heat but Kopa didn't mind. Nala had enjoyed the visit. She hadn't gone to see the River Pride since before she had gotten pregnant so Kion and Kopa had never been there before today.

"He's falling asleep." Simba said, as Nala finished up with Kion's bath. His eyelids were slowly beginning to droop and Nala gently placed him between her and Simba before picking Kopa up. Kopa's eyes widened as he realized it was time for a bath and he thrashed around the best he could in Nala's paws. Nala sighed at her son before gently grasping him tighter to bathe him. Kion didn't like baths but Kopa hated them. She always Kion first and then dealt with Kopa's bath.

Simba looked at his mate, amused at her bathing Kopa. Simba didn't bathe cubs. He had tried once but the way he bathed cubs gave Nala a headache so she had forbid him from ever bathing them again. Not that he minded. He preferred letting Nala clean the cubs anyways. He knew as they got older they would start running around a lot more and get dirty much more often. He didn't want to deal with that.

When Nala finished bathing Kopa, he seemed to be annoyed at Nala. Simba picked his son up and placed him in his paws and gently used his nose to coax him to settle down and sleep. When he had dozed off, Simba picked him and nestled him against Kion who was now sound asleep. Nala settled her head down close to her sons and Simba did as well. Within a few minutes, the royal family was soundly asleep.

The next morning, Simba woke up a bit later than usual since he knew that he was free today. He felt something shifting besides him and he turned to see Kion and Kopa using their paws to play fight with each other.

"Having fun?" Simba grinned when Kion startled at the sound of his voice and rolled over, giving Kopa an opportunity to give him another swat.

Simba rose to his paws so he could go get some water. Before he left, he turned to his sons. "Daddy's not busy today so when I come back we can spend the day together." He nuzzled them both before leaving.

Simba walked to the Waterhole and was returning when he saw his father and Akila coming towards him.

"Morning." Akila greeted and Simba nodded at his younger brother.

"What's this rouge Zazu told me about?" Mufasa asked, after greeting his son. Despite not being the King anymore, Mufasa still monitored the Pridelands a bit and checked in with Simba and Zazu occasionally.

"So there was this rogue with a black mane and emerald green eyes." Simba said. "He had this brownish orange fur and he said his name was Moto."

"Wait." Mufasa said. "Moto?"

"Yeah." Simba said. "He said he was just passing by because a cub from his Pride was stolen and they led the searches all the way out here."

"And he isn't a threat or anything right?" Akila asked.

"Couldn't be. He said his Pride was small and they probably don't even get enough nutrition since he looked kind of lanky."

"Dad?" Akila nudged Mufasa. "Are you even listening?" Mufasa snapped out of his thoughts.

"Yes I am." Mufasa said. "Simba's right, he isn't a threat. I have to go find your mother now. If you see Ajjali tell her to find us." He nuzzled both his sons before he headed back to Priderock.

"That was weird." Simba said.

"He's hiding something." Akila said. "I want to find out what it is."

"Well that's going to be easy." Simba sighed. Both he and Akila knew better than to cross the line with Mufasa.

"I'll just tell Mom later." Akila shrugged. "If anyone, she can figure it out." Simba nodded and the brothers headed back to Priderock. When they reached Priderock, Chumvi walked out looking sleepy.

"Didn't sleep well?" Simba smirked at his friend. He and Kula had twins, a boy named Enye and a girl named Jasiri a week ago.

"Trust me; I would actually sleep if Jasiri went to sleep at night." Chumvi said, giving him a grin.

"Come on." Akila said. "Let's go to the Waterhole. I'm thirsty and some water will wake you up!" He and Akila headed down Priderock while Simba went to join his family.

Nala finished feeding Kion and Kopa just as Simba walked in.

"I'm not busy today." Simba said. "I'll watch them for a while. Go and have some time to yourself." Nala nodded and nuzzled her mate as she got up. "I'll be back soon then." She walked out of the den and Simba settled down next to Kion and Kopa.

Back in the Outlands, trouble was brewing in Moto's Pride.

"You bumped into Simba?" A lioness growled. "And you didn't kill him?"

"Zira!" Moto growled. "Does it look like I'm in any fighting condition right now?" He motioned to his injured paw.

"Did you tell him your name?" Zira asked.

"I told him my name was Moto. After all that should have been my real name is that bastard Ahadi hadn't interfered."

"Scar," Zira said, speaking his real name. "How about we go see Nuka? He's been asking to see you for the past while. He's too tired to get up right now."

"When is he not sick Zira?" Scar asked, shaking his head before giving his mate a look. "All I asked from you is one thing. To provide me with a suitable heir. And you failed!" Zira felt her heart clench at the thought that she knew was true. Their first born had died at birth and then the next one was Nuka but he was too weak. Zira doubted that he would even grow a full mane when he grew up.

"Then we can try again!" Zira exclaimed. "Now if you want to. You need an heir as soon as possible for you to take over Simba's Pride." She was terrified that Scar would choose another lioness to be her mate.

Scar smiled and nuzzled his mate before they walked off to find a secluded area.

So did you guys guess that Moto was actually Scar when Simba first confronted him? Reminder that since this story is combined with that one shot stories thing I was going to do, you are welcome to tell me anything you want to see in this story and I'll do my best to add them in. Hope you guys enjoyed.
