Chapter one. The Nothing
The king had returned, after facing the tyrant, the usurper uncle, King Simba stood as sovereign of the land.
Along with his queen Nala, his friends and advisers Timon and Pumbaa and Rafiki the wise along with the loyal butler Zazu the land prospered. Herds of animals had returned slowly when the balance was restored and now with the birth of the heir seemed that everything had been suffering from a nightmare that finally ended ...
Simba was watching the skyline from the top of the Rock of the King, the young Leon remembered when his father and he went up to and so long.
Simba-Nala said the queen arriving to where the Leon-What look?
The kingdom, "replied the lion look like the cycle of life continues.
Oh my dear, "said the lioness Simba rubbing his head with the male I know that your father would be proud of you, go, low, jackets soon returned with food.
Under Nala, Simba took a last look at their land down to eat ...
Stands out as the sun shone just as radiant in the beautiful African plains, Simba is desperezo while yawning left the cave to sleep leaving Nala and her little puppy.
The lion went directly to the spring to drink water as it did every morning after drinking saw his reflection in the crystal clear waters, while in the fresh morning contemplating something called your attention, something puzzling.
On the other side of the spring was reflected else ... Leon also noted a reflection of Simba into the water.
The lion seemed tired, Simba kept watch at first thought that this would be an attack by outsiders or a threat to his kingdom but to see you here alone without anyone around who did relax a bit.
Where do I find it? - Leon asked the stranger.
In my domain, you're in the land of lions "replied Simba-What is your name?
My name is Leon Bhatia said the parliament to go in this way on your land ...
Simba the lion had been wounded in the left leg.
Simba could become infected, "said pointing to the wound
Oh is not nothing, "said Bhatia heal seemed really tired.
Appeared behind Simba Nala.
A friend? - Asked the lion standing next to Simba.
At least it does not seem hostile, "said the king.
Simba was going to ask something else when Bhatia crashed into the ground.
Nala looks Leone ordered by Simba.
She did what the king had ordered, Simba came to Leon, his reddish hair was less than that of Simba, the lion was burning with fever.
Simba put his foot on the head of Bhatia, really hot.
Aisha ... - delirious Bhatia said.
Simba had never heard that name.
After a few minutes that were too long for Simba Nala arrived accompanied by lions and inseparable Timon and Pumbaa.
The freshness in the leg did wake up, I was surrounded by several lions and compared them with the lion that he had spoken in the spring. A mandrel was heavy on a stick next to Leon.
Quiet, "said Simba to see fear in their eyes-we are friends ... Bhatia
My name is Leon Bhatia, said the herd-the king of the land Naba red deserts of the north going ...
Simba turned to see who nodded Rafiki, the wise baboon knew about this land and these lions.
You are too far from your land, "said Simba, then why?
Nothing said by Bhatia.
What is Nothing? - Asked Simba
Nothing is, is the hunger, the thirst, despair and destruction, is fear, "said Leon-hui before I fall too ...
Rafiki seemed the only one who understood what Bhatia said.
In that case also come here, "said the mandrel.
Bhatia nodded.
I think that yes, once it has been awakened, will not stop until all the lions attack ... all are in danger, "said Bhatia
Bhatia not lying.
What do you mean Bhatia, Rafiki - Simba asked.
It is an evil spirit, "said the chuck-it is said that the great kings of the past were the only ones who could stop it.
How to stop before they destroy my kingdom - asked Leon.
Only the great kings of the past knew how to stop ... "Rafiki said.
Simba wake up to the light blue sky that covered him, he had regained his kingdom and did not lose against a ghost of ancient times, but how? Was the question that was strongly ...
Everything that day was the passage pensativo Simba, Bhatia thanked the support received and offered to accompany the Leon to look for food that day, including Timon and Pumbaa after they accepted it on his paw Bhatia promised not eating right, it is more Kopa escorted to the small of her mother came up to smell the new Leon.
Nala allowed Bhatia did little reverence Kopa.
No one survived more than you? - Asked Nala
When Nothing strikes, lost all desire to continue, join in such a sadness that are left to die, dry plains, animals are dying of hunger ... I just ran, "said Bhatia, I am a coward.
And the wound on your leg? - Asked Nala.
I had the audacity to challenge the attack as nothing when I saw my beloved Aisha ... a grave error-continuous Leon.
So it's not a ghost, why the lion.
Leon can not with her, is more than a ghost, "said Bhatia.
Nala could not enter unless your little puppy fearing the danger that awaited her and her family, but especially his beloved Simba ...
Simba prayed to the great kings of the past talk about what was nothing but the stars were silent that night, was about to retreat back to the Rock of Leon when the wind began to change.
King sniffing the air, that it had lived before, he was sure, soon ...
"Simba" was the voice of Mufasa.
Simba rose again to view the stars, as had happened long ago when most needed the advice of his father, the great King Mufasa's image appeared to give consolation, now delineated by the stars in the night sky.
Father said, how is Simba defeat to nothing?
"It was not my time," said the ghost of Leon-or time of Ahadi my father, nor the Mohatu of his father, Simba just can stop the great kings ... remember that when this ... "
Once again I feel is the breeze stirred the hair of Simba, after only the silence of the image of the great King Mufasa had no trace.
What was that, the weather - Rafiki asked sitting on a rock.
A clue, I think, "said Simba, I would like to speak with riddles ...
The next morning was very different from any other morning in Africa the lions ... the morning mist had not disappeared like the dew to feel the sun, unlike some left in the cold environment.
So it all started when nothing was about to arrive, "said Bhatia.
Simba, Zazu, ordered that the flocks are revised, if there is any change in them let me know.
Yes your highness, "said the butler left the fly.
Bhatia What happened when the first came Nada - Simba asked.
The herd did not move from where they were, the river began to dry, cold and finally increasing, "said Bhatia, with a lion's roar came Nothingness ...
In this case there is not much time, "said Simba, Timon, Pumbaa, you check the river.
Whatever, "said Simba Timon riding Pumbaa its inseparable.
Simba-Nala-continuous, and my mother, you stay in the Rock of the King as well as Sarafina, an escort of lions stay with you, the other will be divided into three groups to review each part of the kingdom, which they see anything strange I yield.
Las Leonas nodded.
¿Simba King and I - asked Bhatia.
You accompanied me to see Simba, Rafiki, "said my father said that only the great kings of the past were able to stop it, should know as Rafiki stopped them ... go!
All were mobilized to do what the king did.
The warm land of the lions were increasingly colder, later in the morning was cold, the morning mist was still covering over and over the plains of the kingdom.
Herds were not moved from where they were reported as Zazu to see two male lions running towards the tree of Rafiki.
Zazu, Nala returns with the King of Rock, let me know if something happens, "said Simba without stopping.
Timon and Pumbaa had also found that the river was running slower than usual, Simba sent with the other Suricata, everyone mobilized to the King of Rock had been the order of his majesty.
Leonas also reporting that the animals arriving were worried that some had believed to see shadows in the bushes as if they were treated by predators but none could ensure that era.
Simba once again command the lion back to the Rock of the King.
Are hyenas - Simba asked.
I do not think so, "said Bhatia running beside the king does not know that these are but shadows also appeared in my home when nothing came.
In this case we must hurry, "said Simba.
Front of them and you could see the tree of Rafiki.
The mandrel and the expected downstream.
Rafiki, How to stop the great kings of the past Nothing - Simba asked.
Only they know, "said the wise baboon.
Do you know or do not want to say - Bhatia asked not understanding.
Only the great kings of the past were able to stop it and only they can tell the way they said Rafiki.
Simba and Rafiki Bhatia was saying they knew all I knew and who had no choice but to return to the Rock of the King.
The sun warmed the earth, the animals seemed to be afraid of something you did not see, the river was at the lower levels, the fog was still present, Simba and Bhatia felt as if something was lurking from the shadows the projected trees, even the bushes seemed daunting.
Arriving at the King of Rock Las Leonas seemed nervous, Timon and the others were glued to Suricata Pumbaa as if the wild boar could protect while Simba arrived.
Simba Nala approached had fear in his eyes green.
What is going Simba - Nala asked with a note of fear in his voice.
Simba opened his mouth to tell Nala that everything would be fine but no sound came out of his mouth, the roar of a lion is the king I hear silence.
Simba and Bhatia came to the entrance of the King of the Rock to see the whole, the cloud covered almost the entire earth, and over it, like a snake crawling over a black shadow that same night.
Birds and other animals were left in silence, Simba should be understood that the Nothing, came quickly to the cave only to see that Leone was thrown on the rock, trembling with fear, Until it seemed to be very sad Kopa as are Suricata, wild boar and Zazu.
This strikes at the Nothing, "said Bhatia from the post.
Why do we not concern you or me? - Asked Simba.
Maybe because I already saw, "said Leon, and because you descended from the great kings of the past, I think.
Simba did not know if that would be true, but did not have time to draw conclusions, the shadows move on the rock to get to where they were.
Simba and Bhatia rugieron but nothing happened, the shadow stopped and slowly began to take shape ... Simba could not avoid their eyes open to the maximum by surprise to have nothing against it
