The fifth and second last part of my mini series is finally here! Sorry to keep you all waiting for so long.
--------------------
Upon returning to the Oasis lands, night had already fallen and Jamal spotted his sister sitting on a hill looking at the stars, wiping her eyes with paw as if she'd just been crying.
- Psst... Leasha! he called, she gasped and turned around, not believing her eyes seeing her brother, who she thought was dead, standing right there, very much alive.
-Jamal?! she gasped and ran up to him, giving him the warmest nuzzle, Jamal chuckled and returned the nuzzle.
- Little brother, you're alive! But... how? Rasul told us you fell into the river, Leasha pulled away from the nuzzle with raised eyebrows.
- I didn't fall... Rasul threw me in the river. He tried to kill me, explained Jamal, and Leasha gasped.
- What?!
- He's a traitor, who's working for Sauda. I need to talk to father! and with that Jamal took off and went to search for their father, king Ngosi, with Leasha following after him.
Meanwhile, on the other side of the kingdom, Rasul, who was completely unaware of the fact that Jamal was alive, had started to be bothered by a guilty conscience about what he had done. Did things really have to be taken as far as actually taking someone's life? Was it all truly worth it? The lion let out a deep sigh, and looked at his paws as a gentle breeze blew through his mane.
- What have I done?... I'm a murderer, Rasul whispered, closing his eyes and a small, tiny tear rolled down on his cheek. He knew that it was time for him to disappear...

And yup, he does! Deep down he's not really a bad guy, he's just a victim of Sauda's manipulation. D:
