History:
Chuma was the first born cub to Simba and Nala. (Yes, he is "fluffy" who appeared at the end of tlk 1) He was a generally happy cub, but he got himself into trouble a lot. For that, his relationship with his father and mother was strained. Simba wanted to teach him the importance of being In charge and being a good leader, but he didn't want to listen. Simba took him out on a walk to show Chuma the kingdom, and the adventurous cub ran out on a log over a fast paced river. Chuma jumped around on the log, and it broke, sending him into the rapids below. Simba stood, frozen by pure shock, and did not do anything. Chuma was swept away, and the last thing he saw of his father was him standing on the riverbank, doing nothing to save him. Chuma was swept into the jungle. In the jungle, the river slowed down and Chuma managed to swim to the riverbank. He spent the night alone in the jungle, terrified and afraid. The next day, a leopard named Nafaria found him. Nafaria had recently lost a cub to crazed male leopard named Mabayo. Nafaria took pity on Chuma and decided to adopt him. They had a very close bond, much closer than The bond he had had with his birth mother, Nala. She taught him the way of the jungle, and Chuma loved it. When Chuma was a young adult, Nafaria was murdered by Mabayo. Chuma tried to kill Mabayo, but the large leopard overpowered the young lion. Chuma escaped with his life, and there was nothing left for him in the jungle but fear of being killed by Mabayo. He left and went to the savanna. It was a struggle for him; he had never actually hunted on the savanna before. He was trying to stalk an antelope, but all the noise he made scared it away. He heard somebody laughing at him. It was a pretty female cheetah. Her name was Raffa. She offered to show Chuma how to hunt on the savanna. He reluctantly accepted, and she began teaching him. They became very close, and Chuma became a proficient hunter. Chuma was confused, for he had started to have feelings for her. Chuma soon admitted to it, and Raffa was ecstatic, for she felt the same way. Chuma was nervous about his new relationship, for he was a lion and she was a cheetah. There was a lot of teasing due to that, and the couple decided to leave their home. As they wandered, they ran across a river. Chuma recognized the river from when he had been swept away, and him and Raffa followed the river all the way to Pridelands, which Chuma recognized. The couple made their way to pride rock. There, Chuma, for the first time In years, saw Simba. Simba at first didn't recognize Chuma, but after he introduced himself, Simba was shocked. Chuma was spiteful towards his father for doing nothing while he was swept away. Chuma discovered Simba and Nala had had ten Cubs after he had gone, all of them whom they lost minus two; Kiara and Kion. Kiara was to be the next queen, and her mate Kovu to be king. Simba put everything on hold so he could make his decision. Raffa and Kiara did not get along, and that stressed things even more. However, in the next to weeks, all the cubs Simba and Nala had lost returned to the Pridelands. This made choosing an heir even more difficult for simba and Nala. Chuma didn't get along with any of his siblings, and things started getting violent. Simba soon made a decision that would change anything. The Pridelands were an immense kingdom, huge beyond compare. Simba and Nala decided to split the kingdom into eleven separate parts; each child being the king or queen of one. Natasha became queen of the Kuzaliwa pride, Vikara queen of the Mabadiliko pride, Kopa king of the Kukopa pride, Hasani king of the Nzuri pride, Chaka king of the Mfalme pride, Kishindo king of the Ajali pride, Enzi king of the Nguvu pride, Shafira queen of the Wanajulikana pride, Kiara queen of the Giza pride, Kion would be king of the shujaa pride, and Chuma became king of the Tajiri pride. The lionesses were split up to go with different prides. Chuma made Raffa his queen, and the adopted an abandoned boy cheetah cub they found named Mabazi. Chuma fought in a lot of battles, and he didn't really have any allies, minus the Wanajulikana pride. He died in a battle with the Mabadiliko pride at the claws of his sister Vikara. His adopted son, the cheetah Mabazi, became king.
