(One day, after coming back home from seeing the whole of the kingdom that he will one day rule, Kopa was enjoying himself enormously and feeling bright and cheerful, when, suddenly, he heard a strange but rather sad little sniffling sound, followed by soft crying. He was then rather intrigued by it and wondered what it was as it peeked his interest. He followed it all the way up to the very top of Pride Rock, and there, he saw his little sister, Kiara, emotionally and painfully crying, and walked up to her before sitting down next to her and comforting her.)
Kopa: Don't Cry, Kiara. Please Tell Me What's Wrong. Why Are You Crying, Baby Sister?
Kiara: (Sniff) Well... It's Just... B-Because... (Sniffles And Wipes Her Tears) Now, I Don't Know How To Say This To You Without Making You Feel Bad, But... (Cries) You Got To See The Entire Kingdom Today, But, Whenever I Want To Do The Same, Daddy Won't Ever Let Me. (Crying)
(Kopa Felt Sorry For His Little Sister)
Kopa: Shh, Shh. It's Okay, Little Sister. I'm Sure That, One Day, Dad Will Give You A Chance To Prove Your Worth. But, For At Least, Right Now, He Really Worried For You. But He's Only Worried For You Because He Loves You Very Much.
Kiara: (Sniffles) I Know. (Whimpers) But He Can't Keep Having This Happen To Me Forever.
Kopa: And He Won't. Only Just Until He Feels Like You're Ready To Learn How Life Works For Us. Why Do You Think He Never Punished You For Every Time You Made A Mistake?
Kiara: (Sniff) W-W-Well, I... Uh... Eh...
Kopa: Because He Knows How Useful You Are, And Exactly What You're Capable Of.
Kiara: (Sniffles) Really?
Kopa: Yes.
(Just Then, Kion Arrives And Walks Up To Them)
Kion: Hey, Guys, What's Goin... Oh, Uhhhh... What's Wrong, Kiara?
Kopa: She's Just Really Sad That She Didn't Get To Go Out And Explore The Pridelands Like I Did.
Kiara: (Sadly) Yeah. (Sniffles)
Kion: Oh. (Sits Down Next To Kiara And Helps Comfort Her) It's Okay, Big Sister. I Suffer The Same Thing As You Too, But We're Here For You. And We'll Help You With Whatever Kind Of Problem You Have. (Licks Kiara's Cheek And Even Some Of Her Tears)
Kopa: Yes. Always.
Kiara: (Sniffs And Wipes Her Tears As She Breaks A Sad Little Smile) Thanks, You Two.
(Two Weeks After Kopa's Death)
Kion And Kiara: (Crying)
Kiara: (Tearfully) I Really Miss Kopa, Kion.
Kion: (Sniff) (Tearfully) Me Too, Kiara.
(Kion And Kiara Comfort Each Other As They Continue To Mournfully Cry)
(Just Then, Simba And Nala Arrive, Along With Timon, Pumbaa And Timon's Mother And Uncle Max, To Comfort Their Remaining Children.)
Simba: We Know How Hard That This Will Be Hard For You To Get Over.
Nala: But Eventually You Will, And Even So, We're All Gonna Be Alright.
Kion And Kiara: (Sniffs And Whimpers)
Kiara: (Tearfully) Yeah.
Kion: (Tearfully) We Know.
Nala: Don't Forget, Kids, Back When We Were Your Ages, Your Father Was Just As Devastated As You When Your Grandfather Died, And I Was Just As Devastated As You When He Was Thought to Be Killed Too, After Scar Lied To Us About That.
Simba: Yes, But We Managed To Pull Through All That, Reunite, And Put An End To Scar Rule Once And For All.
Timon: And It's Thanks Me And Pumbaa That They Were Able To Do So.
Pumbaa: Yeah, We Helped Them Distract The Hyenas, So That They Could Get Pass And Face Down Your Evil Great Uncle.
Timon: My Ma And Uncle Max Also Helped Out Too. Because Uncle Max Is Such A Great Digger.
Uncle Max: Thanks, Timon.
Timon: You're Welcome, Uncle Max.
Kiara: (Wipes Away Her Tears) Wow.
Kion: Really, We Didn't Know That.
Timon: Oh, Yeah.
Pumbaa: It's True, Alright.
Kion: Dad? We Always Wondered; We Know It Happened, But, Right After Grandfather Musfasa's Death, How Did You End Up Living With Timon And Pumbaa?
Kiara: Yeah.
Uncle Max: Well Kids, He Used To Be A Sentry Lookout For Hyenas, But It Didn't Work Out Too Well For Him.
Timon: So, I Decided To Leave, And That's When I Met Pumbaa.
Pumbaa: Yeah, And We've Became Best Friends Ever Since. And Then Together, We Started Looking For A Dream Home.
Timon: The First Place We Looked Was The Whole Of This Entire Kingdom Of Yours.
Pumbaa: The Second Place We Looked Was The Inside Of This Place.
Timon: The Third Was The Elephant Graveyard.
Pumbaa: The Fourth Was The Gorge Your Granddad Got Killed In, And Me And Timon Were In A Stampede Too. Then We Went Over A Waterfall, And We Finally Found Our Dream Home, Hakuna Matata.
Timon: Then We Chased Off A Pack Of Buzzards, And That Was When We Saw Your Father Laying On The Ground.
Simba: Yes. And So, After Rescuing Me, Timon And Pumbaa Took Me In With Them And Took Great Care Of Me, Until, One Day, I Grew Up, And Reunited With Your Mother. And Then, After "Getting Some Sense Knocked Into Me", We All Made It Back To the Pridelands, Found Out That Scar Was Responsible For Your Grandfather's Death, Faced Him Down And Took Back Everything That He Stole From Our Family, Once We Defeated Him And The Hyenas.
Pumbaa: Yeah, And You Two Should've Seen The Way We Beat Those Hyenas.
Nala: And How Bravely Your Father Took On And Defeated Scar To Save The Pridelands.
Timon: Yep.
Uncle Max: And Sometime After All That Was When They Had Your Older Brother, Kopa, And Eventually After That, You Two.
Ma: We Know It Feels Bad That Kopa Is Dead.
Timon: But He Will Always Be With You Two, No Matter What.
Pumbaa: Yeah, Inside That Is.
Simba: Yes. From Now On, Kopa Will Always Be With Us, In Our Hearts.
Nala: And We're All Gonna Be Just Fine.
(And Finally, Kion And Kiara Smiled)
Kion: Yeah. Thanks, Mom, Thanks, Dad. Thank You, Everyone, We Feel So Much Better Now.
Kiara: Yeah.
Simba: You're Welcome, Kids.
Nala: Anytime.
(Kion, Kiara, Simba, Nala, Timon, Pumbaa, Ma And Uncle Max All Joined Together In A Group Hug)
(And so, about one whole entire month later, Kion and Kiara finally finished mourning Kopa and officially put his death behind them, and were ready to continue with their usual lives.)
