It was a cold and heavily snowy day on the mountains as Kion, Rani and Nirmala were walking up the slope as they were heading to the Prideland as Simba needed Nirmala's help it wasn't anything life threatening or extreme just something minor, as they continued to roam they noticed that the sky was getting a little dark and the snow was falling heavily, Kion knew they needed to rest somewhere and he knew where, Kion could tell that they were nearing the cave of their least favorite Snow leopard and her mate and cub. Kion saw the cave up ahead and went over to it and entered to find Chuluun and Ayaz laying in front of a sleeping Fionn, "Well look who it is."Chuluun said in a sarcastic hush tone not wanting to wake Fionn "hey sorry to do this again but We need to stay here until the blizzard let's up."Kion said as Rani and Nirmala came into view "Of course your highness."Ayaz said politely as Chuluun rolled her eyes, "how Fion doing?"Kion asked looking at the sleeping cub "He's doing fine,getting stronger everyday."Ayaz said proudly then Kion glanced at Chuluun "are you keeping her out of trouble?"
Chuluun glared at him annoyed as Ayaz chuckled "Yes Kion,Chuluun is still a good person,which reminds me of a little something,Chuluun would like to redeem herself to you."Ayaz said as The lions looked at Chuluun skeptical "Is that so?"Rani asked "Yes..."Chuluun responded with a little eyeroll "I had her apologize to the red pandas,and they are slowly starting to forgive her,and I was hoping you guys would be willing to do the same."Ayaz said as Rani narrowed her eyes at her "Redemption is a long journey Chuluun."Nirmala said firmly "that's correct,and although I'm still upset about what you tried to do to my kingdom,I'm not the type of girl to hold grudges,it does negative things to your soul."Rani said as Nirmala nodded with a smile "We're willing to forgive and forget,if that's what you really want to do Chuluun?"Kion asked as Chuluun nodded as she stood up "i'm a new different person now,I have a mate and son who are changing me for the better,and..I regret my actions in the past...I was going through a little rebellious phase but that's done and over now."Chuluun said with genuine seriousness in her voice something that the lions detected immediately.
"Well that's all well and good Chuluun,but you need to do more than just tell us you're going to change."Nirmala said "To put it bluntly Chuluun,you need to kiss our backsides."Rani said and Chuluun took a deep breath "Alright turn around."Chuluun said confusing everyone "Uh what?"Rani asked "I'm going to kiss your backsides."Chuluun said Kion almost busted out laughing at the fact that Chuluun was literally just about to kiss their backsides literally "No Chuluun not literally."Kion chuckled "Uh now hold on a moment Kion,I wouldn't mind literally."Rani said with a mischievous smile making Kion give her a surprised stare "Chuluun I need you to show us the proper respect and you know exactly what that means right?"Rani said "Yeah..."Chuluun said as she then bowed in front her and Kion "Your highness."Chuluun said with a humble tone making Kion and Rani smile although Rani wanted more witnesses to this. "Wait a minute Chuluun,I want the entire tree of life to know that you are remorseful and you have changed..."
Several Days Later
The Night Pride and Chuluun stood in front of a massive crowd,they all stared at Chuluun with skeptical and stern faces,most of them didn't believe Chuluun was willing to change her ways and some weren't willing to forgive her at all. "Are you sure about this?"Baliyo asked his sister "No entirely,but she's showed signs she wants to change,and suprisingly i believe her."Rani said "so do i."Kion said "Me too."Nirmala added "It could be a ruse."Fuli said "To what end?"Rani asked not entirely believing that "i...i don't know."Fuli said "Just give her a chance,she is changed."Surak said firmly "Just to be clear if this is some sort of trick,can i stink her?"Bunga asked Rani raised an eyebrow slightly as she glanced at Chuluun "we'll talk later."Rani said as she stood next to Chuluun.
"Everyone i know you all are wondering why Chuluun is here and i can assure it's nothing anything bad,she has something to say,now please hear her out."Rani said as she looked at Chuluun who stared at the crowd "i know you all know me as a member of Machucha's little group who caused trouble here,after the repeated defeats by the night pride and Guard, i went back home to the mountains and found something special,i found love."Chuluun said causing everyone to look at her suprised by what she said some of them murmured disbelief and insults at her which hurted Chuluun but she ignored it.
"I found love and i had a cub,and they helped warm my cold blooded heart and help me see the error of my ways and they help me begin my journey of change,and the path has led me back here,and I came here to say that I am deeply sorry for the trouble I caused."Chuluun said looking at the crowd who were silent and staring at Chuluun with emotionless cold expressions. "yeesh you can cut the tension with your claws."Bunga said "Thanks Chuluun that's very very kind and big of you,as I look at all of you I can tell that you guys don't exactly believe her,and that's understandable,but Chuluun came here seeking redemption and she's shown that she's looking to change her ways,she has a mate and son,she wouldn't risk disappointing them by relapsing,she loves and cares about them and they are a positive influence on her,I think we should give her a chance."Rani said earning unsure stares from the masses.
"How do we know she's not faking,she could be playing a sick game with us and her mate and son?!"An male animal said causing most of the animals to murmur in agreement "She's not,and she'll prove it right here and now."Rani said as Chuluun then sighed and then bowed down in front of Rani "your majesty."Chuluun said in a humble tone slightly surprising everyone as there was no snide,no sarcasm or mockery in her voice, she sounded sincere but it is not exactly enough. "I'm still not convinced."a female voice said "me neither."a male voice added "hold on everyone she's not done."Rani said as she looked Chuluun in the eyes "Chuluun...pucker up."Rani said as she suddenly turned around and everyone gasped in shock after watching the scene in front of them, "ok I believe her."I male voice said "I know she did bad things but did she have to humilliate her like that?"a female voice asked feeling bad for Chuluun, Rani and Chuluun looked at the crowd who now was starting to believe her.
A little bit later the night pride watched as Chuluun headed back to the snowy mountains back to her mate and son, Bunga let out laugh of amusement "I can not believe you made Chuluun kiss your behind and in front of a crowd." "Yeah sis who knew that you had such evil in you."Baliyo said with a nudge and chuckle "I wanted some payback."Rani said "You think she'll stay on the good path?"Fuli asked "i have no doubt Chuluun will not be going back to her evil ways."Kion said proudly as he watched Chuluun disappear beyond the horizon.
The End
