It was another beautiful 83 degree day in the Pridelands. If humans were around they would definitely want to vacation here because of the warm weather and gorgeous scenery. All the commotion was about the latest birthing of the new lion cubs for the great pride. Duma and his wife Paka just gave birth to twins Kula and Chumvi Ni who is a rouge lion impregnated Sarabi's half sister Tisa leaving Mufasa as the adopted father of Tojo who would be born in three days according to the eccentric and mysterious shaman Rafiki. This is also to be the same day that Mufasa and Sarabi's son Simba is due to be born. A lioness named Kamili was expecting the birth of her twin daughters Tama and Kiara in two weeks time. All were excited except for Scar, Mufasa's younger brother who was brooding somewhere in the back of the huge monolith that served as the prides home for many generations. Little did the pride know that they would gain a new pregnant member later that evening that was approaching from the southeast and that this new addition would change all their lives forever.


"Well this is the place I heard about" the lone pregnant cream colored lioness spoke out loud as she was walking. I hope this pride is as kind as I heard and will let me join them. She thought as she was getting closer to the giant stone monument.

"Halt" a blue Red-billed Hornbill with white under belly feathers approached the lone lioness "These are the lands of King Mufasa what brings you here" the bird squawked. My name is Sarafina and my former pride was destroyed by a fire and my father was the former king of that pride and I was to take his place as future queen Unfortunelly all were lost including my beloved husband who was the last I saw alive before…. before….before" the lioness couldn't compose herself in that she broke down in tears in front of the Hornbill. Come; come now I am sure the King will hear you out as the majordomo spoke in a soft tone as he comforted the cream colored lioness. So the two went to the base of pride rock where King Mufasa and some other lioness stepped out of the cave to see this new lion.

"Your majesty I bring you princess Sarafina of the" Sunfire pride as she interrupted since she never mentioned the name to Zazu as the lioness bowed before the king. Princess Sarafina asked "what brings you to my pride?" the king boomed loudly like "Darth Vador." Your Majesty I have recently lost my husband and my pride to a horrible fire and earthquake." "I am with cub any time now and I humbly ask to join your pride since I for once have no where to go. I have heard that this pride has good lions here and so here I am," she said sadly. As soon as that was said Scar out of no where, came running out of and started protesting. Mufasa I protest. She may be a spy to take us over." Mufasa turned to his brother and said what do you mean Scar." "Well look at her she's different from the rest of us how can we trust her," Scar protested. "Your majesty Sarafina interrupted. Mufasa turned back to Sarafina. If I was a killer, then I would have killed you in your sleep and not seek asylum from you now." Sarafina callously said

Mufasa looked at Sarafina's apple-green eyes" and saw the honesty in her heart. "Sarafina" the king said. "Yes, your majesty" Sarafina quickly replied. "I see you're with cub?" the king asked. He called his wife to approach. The pregnant Sarabi approached her husband slowly and asks "who do we have here, my love." Sarabi this is former princess Sarafina, she is with cub and is seeking to join our pride. Mufasa said. "A girl your Majesty is what I was told on my last check up from my old shaman." Sarafina interrupted. "Oh" Sarabi says. Sarafina a moment alone with my mate if you please." The queen says softly. Of course, your highness as the cream colored lioness walks to a secluded side waiting for their answer. Meanwhile Scar and the other lioness decide to leave since the strange lioness is not a threat to the pride. Scar on the hand leaves to his back cave with silent protest to sleep with his girlfriend Zira.
