Furahi looked over Kiara and saw another cub, "Hmmm?" she stopped to get on the other side of Kiara, she bent her head down next to Atiya, "Hey there," she said sweetly, "What's your name little one?"

Atiya was thankful to be picked up and she sagged from Kiara's mouth with out complaint. She looked at the lion who spoke as Kiara walked, bobbing Atyia from side to side. "My mommy and daddy named me Atiya, but they said I should go by whatever the King and Queen wanted to call me." Atiya said softly, she didn't even know Kiara was the one carrying her, and the Queen, and her future mother-in-law. "I won't mind if they change it." Atiya added, as she was too passive to object anything, all she knew was to take orders. Her tail curled onto her white cream belly and she tried to look where they were going but all she saw was tall blades of gold grass swaying in front of her little olvie eyes. She looked at the same lioness again, "I'm hungry..." She whined softly, but not in a way that was annoying, but more sad.

"Your lucky to have survived young one, that was a long far way to come! I thank the Great Kings of the Stars that you are alive!", Enamayama said to the cub from the other side of Atiya, and then she looked at Kiara

"And we will be home soon", she added, as if she had never left the Pride

"I bet you are," she looked at Kiara and began, "Kiara, I'm going to get something for Atiya here, and the rest of the cubs," the brown lioness said, stopping and turning the opposite direction, "Viza you come with me," she said, "We need to talk," she then looked in Mto's direction, "Mto you come with me too," she said. then once more she turned her head to Simba, "Simba when Kejeli wakes up tell he I took Viza with me,"

Viza nodded slowly and sadly, thinking she was in trouble. she was right, she was in trouble...she disobeyed her Aunt's words, and she was to have a long lecture. "Yes Ma'am," she said tears staining her cheeks.


Nala watched as the Furahi and Viza walked off a little while they waited for Mto.

Enamayama walked over to Nala

"Oh Nala, it's been long! How have you been?", she asked in an excited voice

Nala turned her head to look at Enamayama and smiled, "Oh I've been good," she said, "Been getting old being a Grandmother," she said, "And watching Kiara and Kov rule these lands,"




Ajali flew in circles around Merah, following her none the less. "Hey boss...why didn't you just let me drop the little brat, if we just killed the cub, then Kejeli would have the strength to fight. one dead cub, I wanted to drop her so bad." Ajali complained, "You guys never let me have anything fun,"

"You mean as in Kovu the son of Zira and Scar? I find that rather surprising, but then again things change. I'm just glad he decided to follow in Simba's pawsteps with Kiara rather than in Scar's...I remember his evil reign like it was yesterday, only then did I ever once think that the Great Kings were allowing that to happen. That is, until Simba returned was the time I saw that the Great Kings of the Stars were ending Scar's time of Kingship. But still, he made that part of my cubhood dark and unfortunately unforgetful...And I heard about Mheetu, your brother who was killed by Scar", Enamayama said

"But that's good to hear that your doing great", she added

(Yes Nala did have a brother named Mheetu and yes he was killed by Scar as far as I know, not meaning to be rude or anything )

(I knew about...I've read stories about)

Nala sighed, "Yeah it's okay it happened, a long time ago, like Simba always say's Hakuna Matata," she said, "What's in the past is in the past, I know Mheetu is watching over me and the rest of the pride," she sighed again, "Scar made mine one too, I don't want to go into details, he nearly starved us all, thank the Kings Simba came back to us, I tried to convince him that we needed him but he declined it it, I don't know what made him come back...all he said was, 'I finally got some sense knocked into me, and I've got the bump to prove it,'" she repeated what Simba had said to her.

"Ah old Rafiki told me about that, I laughed when he told me he had to whack Simba in the head with his stick in order to get him to realize that you learn from your past and mistakes. But I'm glad Simba came back, who knows how it would have been if he hadn't", Enamayama chuckled

"And I think we have a lot to catch up on", she added as she began to trot along with Simba and the rest

Kiara smiled lightly. "Well little one, I'm the queen," she explained. "And I like your name perfectly fine just the way it is," she said, her voice muffled carrying the tiny cub, but audioble.

Atiya gasped softly, she was used to showing the up most respect to royalty. "I'm sorry, I didn't know!" Atiya squeaked. Had she known she would have bowed down in front of the queen. "I'm so pleased to meet you, majesty." Atiya added quickly.

Mto kept looping at everyone when they talked and soon came up next to Kiara to see Atiya.

Furahi took Viza away from the group so they could have a private lecture. "Viza, What you did was very very very, irresponsible of you," she began, "You could've easily been killed, that Vulture would've dropped you, thankfully he didn't because of Merah knowing your mother." she then paused, "And if you had still been hiding and we didn't know it, I would've chewed Nala out, I wouldn't have forgiven her, you would've caused me to blame an innocent lioness...and you had her worried to death," she said, she then stopped hearing light sniffling sounds, "Viza, stop crying, I'm a little mad right now, but not completely, you are not off the hook though, since your mother is passed out for the time being, you are to be confined to the den, at all times you are to be escorted by me or anyone else do I make myself clear Viza?" Furahi said.


Viza slowly nodded tears streaming down her cheeks, she looked up at Furahi and said, "I'm sorry," she said rubbing her face into Furahi's lower chest,

"I'm just glad your okay," Furahi told the cub, pushing her away from her chest to look into the tiny cubs eyes. She then began to use her front paw to wipe away Viza tears, "Come on, let's follow everyone else." she said, picking up Viza carrying her.

Nala agreed, "Yes we do have a lot to catch up on, once we get back, You, me, and Simba should catch up."
