Hi. My name is Leah, and I am the daughter of Scar and Milia. Let me tell you my story.

This is my dad.

 Pretty sad, I know. Now, I know what you're thinking- 'Oh he was evil so Leah must be too' or 'Oh my gosh, what in the world!?'- but just listen to me. I am nothing like Scar, I assure you. And this is my mom, Milia.

 Now, you wouldn't think that an evil guy would mate with the nicest lioness you could find, but I guess somehow my mom had weird taste and got together with him. And so I was created.

This is me.

 Not very pretty. Didn't get anything from my parents except for my eyes that are a mix of my mom's blue eye and my dad's green eyes. Otherwise, it's all from my mom's mom. You see, I don't get much personality from my mom or dad, either. I mean, I'm like my mom in some ways: kind, caring, funny- though don't get me wrong, I ain't trying to brag. Now, the only thing I get from my dad is the fact that I can get almost as angry as him under pressure. Well anyways, to the point- my story.

  It all started in late Winter one year, when I was a small cub. Mufasa, my uncle, kicked us out of the pride all  because he didn't trust us with Scar, though he didn't have the heart to exile his own brother, I guess.

 Me and mommy traveled to a pride not too far from our old one. I quickly became friends with the prince and princess, two twins named Mijak and Sijak. Oh, I was in for a big surprise (little did I know). For one, I was now betrothed to Mijak (the boy) even though a cub named Nneka was seriously in a crazed love with him. The day I came to that place, I was excited. I remember exactly the first words Mijak told me: "Hey there! Welcome to the pride! What's your name?". I was so giddy I could barely respond, but my mom came up and said that my name was Leah. Mijak and Sijak were happy to have a new friend. They introduced me to a meerkat friend of theirs, named Kamikku. The four of us bonded all the time, which sort of angered Nneka because she could never get to Mijak now. I can tell you a bunch of adventures we had, but there's a specific one I need to tell you guys out there. Trust me, it's pretty darn cool.

 Ok, so, my friends and I were playing around one day and then we got a bit misguided (well, actually, Sijak & Kamikku  were, to be percise). "No, we're sure this is the way." Sijak had said. Was she right? Oh, not at all. The quirky cub led us to a crocodile river by accident, and, well.... we each were almost eaten, I'll tell you that. What one of the crocodiles said, I won't say. He was kinda harsh with language, you know? So anyways, how we got there, I have no idea. If you ask my mate, Mijak, he won't have an answer, either.

 Well, anywhom, I'll tell you exactly what happened. Right out of the horse's mouth (so to speak). When we got there, I heard voices. Sijak & I were scared. But Kamikku and Mijak, for some reason, were perfectly fine. Yeah, well that lasted about 13 seconds. When they heard the snap of a crocodile mouth they were shaking more than me (though I think Sijak held the record for biggest shake). Then, one of the green, lumpy beasts crawled up to us and said, "Hey Joe! Look here! We have, er, 'guests' ". It was obvious he was trying to hide the fact that he meant  'Joe! Come quick! Good eats!', which really would've scared me even more (which seemed impossible already). We all took a step back. "Oh, don't be scared, we only want to eat ya!" another crocodile hissed. Then another one came up, and shoved the other away. "Uietqay about the atingeay." he said in pig latin (he really meant 'Quiet about the eating'), which was hard to understand at the time. Looking back on it, I wished I'd tried to defend them or something. But nooo, we all had to run for it (except for Kamikku, who was on my friend's back). The crocodiles chased us, like a typical lion-eating-reptile would.  Though I think it's an understatement. These guys were fast. Almost faster than us. I'd like to tell you I was doing great, not scared at all. The truth? My only thought was, AHHHHH! What the HECK!? RUN! RUN! RUN!  Real brave, huh?

 It was Kamikku who skillfully got us out of there while twisting up the old crocs. We swirved through trees, jumped from rock to rock, and eventually all got out of there. We didn't dare tell our parents, and to this day they don't know. So, SHHHH!

 Moving on! As we aged a little, Mijak and I got closer. Started to leave Sijak and Kamikku on their own. I want to tell you that everything was fine and that we all stayed friends. Real life? Sijak abandoned all of us for an enemy pride and left us only with the meerkat. But besides that, we had a good time, I guess. Mijak and I had alone time, and even though Sijak left, Kamikku didn't. She was loyal. But soon, she went on to start her own family. Me and my friend were alone. Well, we continued having alone time, and.... you get the picture. Love. Several weeks ago was our actual mating. So, happy ending. Let's just hope any cubs we have... don't end up like Sijak. Or us, for that matter.
