she said. "Really? Nala didn't push you at all?" "No," Shani said, voice trembling a little. Kim walked closer. "Not...at all?" Shani gulped. "No." "At ALL?" Kim seemed to be looking right through her with those mean eyes. Shani gathered her strength and finally got herself to sound convincing. "No, how many times do I have to tell you?!"
Kim watched her for a while but she didn't give up. Finally Kim turned away and said: "Fine." Nothing more. As if he didn't care at all anymore. "Don't worry, I'll do something about it," he said and sat down. Of course, Shani thought frustrated. "Kim, what's happened to you? You're so...different. You're just not the same Kim you used to be. Not after..." she paused and thought wether or not she should go on. "...Mali's death."
She looked carefylly at Kim to see if he was hurt or angry in any way, ready to apologize, but to her surprise, he didn't react at all. "Change is good sometimes, Shani. Kings need to change, flow with the mass, if you know what I mean." "But you're not mass, Kim. You're changed. I used to like you, now I don't anymore. You're not the Kim I knew!"
She turned her back on Kim and took a few steps to leave when Kim suddenly pounced on her way and looked pleadingly at her. "Oh please, Shani, don't leave, I-I didn't mean to be rude! Please don't go yet!" Shani looked at him slightly disgusted. He was just so DIFFERENT. If it was the real Kim asking her to stay, she probably would have stayed with joy. Now it was only out of pity that she changed her mind. "Okay," she sighed. "But promise that you'll do something about the hunting thing, okay? I don't want to disappoint..." she swallowed "Nala". "...everyone." "I promise, Shani, I'll keep my word." Kim smiled relieved. "But..." he continued. "But what?" Shani's shyness was starting to make a comeback. "First, I think it's time to talk about you and me." "Y-you and me, Kim?" Shani took a few steps back.
Kim smiled. "You are so beautiful, Shani." He stepped forward and Shani stepped backwards. "Your eyes..." "W-what about my eyes?" "They're so pretty, so green...Like a deep sea. An ocean. One could drown in them, Shani." Shani stared at Kim while he spoke. Could this really be Kim? Talking like this? Of course it was beautiful but it wasn't his style. "And your body," Kim continued, sliding his eyes down Shani's face to her legs. "So perfect, just perfect..." "Perfect?" Shani said examining her own body which she thought wasn't near perfect at all. "What do you mean perfect?" Kim looked her in the eyes. "Perfect for having cubs, of course."
Shani backed up a few steps just for the amazement for what she just heard. Then her anger grew, and she forgot her shyness and stroke Kim in the face with her paw.
"How dare you even suggest something like that to me, you sleezy freak?! I would never have cubs with you, NEVER! If you were yourself, the REAL Kim that I used to know, I could maybe love you, but you're not him! You're not my Kim!!!" After she had said this, something amazing happened. Kim pulled back a bit, obviously in pain. "Kim?" Shani asked and now she was scared again. "Kim? A-are you okay?" "Ahh, this...headache...it...it hurts...." "Kim?!"
Kim lifted his head up and Shani gasped.
His eyes weren't green anymore. They were red, like when he was a cub. Kim looked at Shani and after a long time, Shani felt something warm inside her when she saw those familiar eyes. "Kim...a-are you, are you alright?" she asked shivering. "Shani! You gotta help me! There's--there's something inside me, I, I can't explain it, it's so strange. It's making me do things I wouldn't do and things I wouldn't say. Shani, please help me!" Kim whispered in a voice that was his own, with no strange tone and no accent. "What are you talkiKim walked closer. "Not...at all?" Shani gulped. "No." "At ALL?" Kim seemed to be looking right through her with those mean eyes. Shani gathered her strength and finally got herself to sound convincing. "No, how many times do I have to tell you?!"
ng about? Kim, you'ree scaring me!" "Please, I can't get it out, I can't resist it, it's taking me over, please help me, please...Aaahhh!!!"
Kim shook his head in pain, he had a terrible headache. "Kim?! Kim, talk to me! Are you alright?!" Shani yelled. Kim lifted his head up and the green eyes were back. "I am perfectly fine, Shani. Why wouldn't I be?"
He smiled devilishly to Shani and Shani felt her legs shaking. She rushed out of the cave as fast as she could and didn't turn to look back.
"You can't run from it, Shani! YOU BELONG TO ME!!!" Halali
While Kim and Shani were having a quite tense time at Pride Rock, Kiara and Kovu were having the time of their lives somewhere far away.
"How are you, my love?" Kovu smiled and licked Kiara awake. She smiled and yawned. "Perfect. Just perfect." "And the baby?" Kovu nuzzled her tummy carefully. "Fine too," Kiara smiled. "But you know what?" "Well?" "I think he - or she - wants to meet Daddy soon." Kovu looked at her in awe. He didn't get what she meant. "I think the baby is going to born soon," Kiara said clearly and grinned.
Kovu's eyes widened and his jaw dropped. "W-wh-wha-- y-you really mean that?!" He ou and me." "Y-you and me, Kim?" Shani took a few steps back.
Kim smiled. "You are so beautiful, Shani." He stepped forward and Shani stepped backwards. "Your eyes..." "W-what about my eyes?" "They're so pretty, so green...Like a deep sea. An ocean. One could drown in them, Shani." Shani stared at Kim while he spoke. Could this really be Kim? Talking like this? Of course it was beautiful but it wasn't his style.

looked both surprised and excited. Kiara giggled. "Of course I do. I can feel it." Kovu looked at her tummy and leaned against it. Kiara laughed. Kovu listened for a while, then lifted his head up and giggled like a cub: "I can hear him! I can really hear him!" "Or her, don't forget that option," Kiara grinned.
Kovu listened a while again, and suddenly said: "I think he just said "Daddy"." Kiara laughed. "He can't talk yet, silly!" "But I heard it, I swear!" Kovu giggled. Kiara looked at him lovingly. "You know, I don't think I've had this much fun since we had Kim and Maliki."
She smiled, then sighed heavily. Kovu looked at her, walked to her and licked her softly. "I know how much it hurts to have another cub so soon after...well, you know." He didn't want to say it out loud, they had gone over it so many times before this. "But we'll love this cub as much as we loved Mali, you know that as much as I do. And I don't want you feeling guilty about it."
Kiara lifted her head a little and sighed again. "But what about Kim?" Now it was Kovu's turn to sigh. "Kovu, you know how Mom feels about this, she's positive Kim wants to harm the baby." "Come on, do you really believe that?" Kiara bowed her head. "I don't know..." "Do you really believe Kim would do something like that? OUR little Kim?!" "But what if he's not our Kim?!" Kiara yelled suddenly, her voice trembling.
Kovu looked at her in disbelief. "What do you mean?" "I've...I've seen the way he looks at me, Kovu. I've seen it too, not just Mom. He...he looks like he hates me, or-or he hates the baby, I don't know, but he really HATES one of us. Not to talk about the eyes..." she felt cold chills in

That Kimwondo one was awesome, very well written...i didnt like the 'scar murders nala' and 'kim kills himself' bits though. I think Kiara and Kovu should have come in just as scar was about to kill nala, and stopped him. And kim could have just caught scar by surprise on the 'last wish' thing and thrown him off the edge...but hey, its your fic. |
