Hello everyone, as I mentioned before that I have help with Milele. But one of my goals is to rewrite some of the stories that I came to love but the authors are not able to finish or such.

So with permission from GuardianSaint and some help we'll be re doing the Innocence series. But somethings will be added and switched around.

So here's the first chapter of Innocence. Please remember to leave a review, thank you.

Disclaimer: I own nothing but a few OCs. Most of the OCS, the story and everything else belongs to Walt Disney and GuardianSaint.

A loud roar echoed through the plains as the sun began to rise. Birds of different species lifted their heads before taking flight into the dawn. Animals, big and small raised their heads as a song carried through a soft breeze. A zebra stallion started the trek through the lush green grasses before the rest of savannah residents followed.

In the middle of the serengeti stood a kopje where a blue hornbill flew over and landed at the peak just as a old greyish-blue mandrill walked out of a cave followed by two lions, a male and female. The large gold lion held a bundle of dark cream fur as his red mane blew in the morning wind. The dark beige lioness held a gold bundle of fur in her muzzle as they stopped behind the mandrill.

The Royal Mjuzi turned from the gathered animals and turned to the pair of lions, the dark beige lioness dipped her head causing the mandrill to smile before taking his staff and waved it over the gold cub's head before cracking a fruit that hung from his staff and marked the cub with the juice. He scooped up some dust and sprinkled it over the cub, the mandrill repeated the action with the dark cream cub, he then took the cub from the dark beige lioness and turned to the peak of the kopje.

Just as the sun began to shine down appound the kopje and the animals the mandrill thrusted the golden cub into the air, the animals cheered before bowing along with the hornbill that sat on a branch nearby.

The mandrill lowered the cub and gave it back to the dark beige lioness before bowing and headed down a rocky slope on the side of the kopje. The lion and lioness smiled at one another before turning to head towards the cave at end. After laying down on a rised platform the golden lion gave the lioness the cub he was holding and watched as it joined it's sibling in feeding before nuzzling the lioness lovingly.

"They're beautiful, Sarabi."

The dark beige lioness looked at her cubs with adoring orange eyes before returning the nuzzle. "That they are, Mufasa."

The golden lion went to say something when the sound of apporching paws caused the parents to look towards the entrance to see an old gold-tan lioness with a creamy beige lioness at her side. Towing behind the two lionesses was a month old light beige cub with a little scruffy light beige tuff on her head.

The creamy beige lioness who had a scruffy creamy beige fur tuff on her head smiled as she sat by the dark beige lioness before head bumping her. "I can't believe that my little sister, is queen of the Pridelands and mother to the next heirs. Mother and father would be proud."

Sarabi smiled before returning the head bump. "Thanks, Dunia."

The gold-tan lioness walked over and smiled at the newborns at her daughter-in-law's side. "They are indeed beautiful. What are my grandsons' names?"

Sarabi looked at the large golden lion who nodded with a smile. Sarabi turned to her older sisterand mother-in-law with a smile of her own. "The oldest is Simba and the second born is Askari."

The gold-tan lioness looked at her son with dark red eyes. "Mufasa, you do know how to go about this?"

Mufasa nodded before looking at his sons. "I believe so. Whoever seems capable shall get the throne."

The gold-tan lioness sighed heavily before looking at her son but the cry of the blue hornbill caused her to stop as the bird flew towards them with wide dark blue eyes.

"Sire! Rogues, in the Pridelands!"

Mufasa groaned before standing and heading to the entrance. "I'm sorry Rabi. But I must take care of this."

Sarabi sighed heavily before turning her attention to her cubs. Mufasa turned and walked over to his mate, he gave the dark beige lioness a nuzzle before heading out of the den with the hornbill perched on his shoulder.

The lionesses watched the golden king leave before the gold-tan lioness turned to her daughter-in-law.

"Remember Sarabi. A king's job is never done."

Sarabi nodded, "I know, Eshe."

The gold-tan lioness nodded before standing and head for the cave entrance. "Rest dear. I'm going to lead a hunt. You're going to need something to eat when you awake."

Sarabi and Dunia watched the King's mother exit the den before looking at the month cub who peered over her aunt's side. They watched the little female cub look at her cousins sleeping before a small yawn left her little throat.

"It's nap time for you, Tumani."

Sarabi smiled before yawning herself. She laid her head down by her sons and closed her eyes.

A pale white lion looked up up at the bright blue sky with bright teal eyes. "Kondo, I don't think it's safe to be here without the ruler's permission."

A large built brownish-tan lion growled before looking at the pale white lion with narrowed red-orange eyes. "If I want your advice Nalin then I will ask for it. I'm still the leader of this pride."

Nalin wanted to say something but decided to say nothing. Instead he left the brownish-tan lion's side and walked towards the watering hole where four lionesses was resting while watching three cubs play who was no more than a little over four weeks old.

A tawny lioness moved her blue eyes from the playing cubs to the apporching male with a smile that faded when the pale white lion got closer.

"Nalin. What's wrong?"

Nalin sighed heavily before shaking his head. "I'm worried. For you, the cubs... Sanora, Masika and Ajira. We're in another lion's domain...it may not end pretty."

A loud roar caused the small group to stand alert as Kondo ran over in front of the group just as a large golden lion ran over with a blue hornbill flying over. Once he was in front of the group he looked over the males before snapping his dark red eyes to the brownish-tan lion that stood in front of the others.

"State your business."

Kondo flattened his ears as he lowered his head. "We are seeking refugee. Our home was taken over by a tyrant. We barely escaped. Not to mention that the lionesses are expecting."

The golden lion looked at the lionesses and seen that three of the lionesses were heavily pregnant. "I'll reserve judgement. I'll let you stay but you will be closely watched. After a month I'll make my decision."

Kondo smiled gratefully. "That's all we can ask for. I am Kondo former king of the Mountain kingdom."

The golden lion looked at Kondo before dipping his head. "I am King Mufasa and I welcome you to the Pridelands."
