unavoidable. Block, block, block and then try to run aside. I doubt if I try to deliver even single blow after my attack on his back. Last thing I thought before he hit my head, was that avalanche in gorge didn’t have to be an accident. And then again, that it came very bad that Kovu lost both mate and me. Then someone turn my sight off.
What I heard and sensed after, was as Angaa was raising his paw to finish me and then came to us roars of mother, Danti and Kauta. Rouge instantly set off to retreat. I was yelling because of pain and anger. I knew that he failed to kill Kiara. And it was so close…
When I opened my eyes I was in Dried Oasis, surrounded by all my group. Cubs looked on me with fear and amaze, meanwhile mother and girls were trying to water Kiara and me. Queen was almost unhurt – he fainted more due to shock than chocking – but just in case she was treated like wounded. I had just few scratched, but that blow in my head was really painful. When I finally overcame dizziness I asked.
“Cubs?”
“All in place.” Replied my mother.
“Angaa…”
“He ran, when he saw us.” She said. “You were lucky, I could roar so loud.”
“Tetesi!” called Kiara and hugged me ld have never treat him like that. “I’m so sorry… I understood it too late.”
Lion wanted to asked her for another portion of mushrooms. But about two second later he came to logical conclusion, that if he was dreaming, the unreal drugs would not make any effect. Meanwhile lioness was talking still.
“I know you always loved me… even in times before I mated with Ghibu… I was blind, that you with whom I should be. I was selfish and blind. If I could only put back the time… It would be different know.”
“I’m tripping, but if that’s a dream, I would like to sleep forever.” Thought lion. Pains in his stretched muscles were slowly emerging from sea of adrenaline rush. But he felt happy as he never was anyway.
“I love you, Angaa.” Sobbed Lipizi. “I just have understand that. I wanted to do anything for me… and I used that, without understanding what it means.”
“I love you, you know that.” Murmured sleepy, yet extremely excited sandymaned. Suddenly he felt very uneasy. Pains grew and everything – except of Lipizi’s behaviour – was suggesting it was reality. But it meant that she had real problem.
“But from now on it will change… We will go away from that blasted desert. With… Angaa… will you accept my cubs and become their father?” In spite of intense pain in neck, lion nodded his head with so decisive nod, that it almost was as he told: of course I will! “So we will leave this hell. I… hate Kovu, I hate Kiara and Tetesi. But I don’t want to get my revenge for price of your life. No more risk. I want you to live.”
“A bit too late. We are at the state of war with Golden Pride.” Wanted to tell Angaa, but his lips were too sleepy. So he just murmured, expressing as much love as it was possible in that amorphous sound.
“You hear me? I will prepare kids to go. I will try also to disrupt their search. So…”
“Go to pride…” whispered Angaa. He still wasn’t completely convinced that it wasn’t a dream, but he decided to act as it was real. “Rest… eat as much as you can… feed cubs… you must be ready to long journey… in three days let’s meet in Rumble Gorge. Right?”
“I’ll do it, my love.” She kissed him and stood up. She made few steps to exit of cave but then stopped and again measured him with concerned stare.
“I will be all ri to us roars of mother, Danti and Kauta. Rouge instantly set off to retreat. I was yelling because of pain and anger. I knew that he failed to kill Kiara. And it was so close…

“I’m so sorry.” Sobbed Lipizi again. “From now on I will do everything to make up for times I was hurting you.”
“So it seems to be long and extremely wonderful time in future.” He smiled with his blooded lips. “But now go. We will be safe soon.”

The Golden Cave was at alarm. Initially Kovu panicked (fortunately he didn’t show it), seeing that all of Sandy Coalition wasn’t there. He suspected that they all – Angaa, Chungu, Jamaa and Lipizi were involved in plot. But then returned redmaned, directly from north, were he was checking Northern Source. King sighed with relief, because it was really limited possibility that Jamaa had anything to do with attack.
But Chungu and – however weird it sounded – Lipizi were suspected. Kovu wanted to send regular searching team, but in the same time he was afraid of safety of cave. Leaving cubs without protection was not an option.
“Ssssir.” Noticed Kauli, again rolled around king’s neck. “If Lipizi isssss involved in plot, we have… sss="EN-GB">“But from now on it will change… We will go away from that blasted desert.

“He ran, when he saw us.” She said. “You were lucky, I could roar so loud.”
“Tetesi!” called Kiara and hugged me some hostages.” He pointed with tail on sleeping Akra and Simmi.
“That isn’t funny.” Snorted Kovu.
“I was seriousssss, my lord.” Assssssured… I mean: assured snake.
“What now, my lord?” asked Dotty. “Whatever has happened, we must work as pride always does. Hunting…”
“Just in case.” Asked king. “How many lionesses are required to defend the entrance?”
“It isn’t so hard, after all defence in such narrow stand is much easier. Against two males… Two good warriors.” Estimated elder lioness. “That means someone younger than me.”
That was time I decided to act. I came to Kovu, intentionally passing by Kiara, to gain her attention. Then, pretending I wasn’t observed I stopped before my king and said with quiet voice, as if I didn’t want to be heard.
“Sir, unless we catch rouges I strongly suggest you forbid queen any trainings. I can’t guarantee her full safety now.”
“But from now on it will change… We will go away from that blasted desert. With… Angaa… will you accept my cubs and become their father?” In spite of intense pain in neck, lion nodded his head with so decisive nod, that it almost was as he told: of course I will! “So we will leave this hell.
