Kion and Rani: Where Your Loyalties Lie

Chapter 5: A Bad Decision

Simba, Nala, Kiara, and Kopa walked into Priderock after Sarabi's burial. "Let's go play a game Kopa!" Kiara smiled, not even noticing Kion was gone.

"Sure," Kopa and Kiara ran out.

"Let's ask Shay if he wants to play," Kopa suggested. Kiara nodded.

"Hey! Kiara!" Kiara turned around, "Hi Tiifu! Hi Zuri! Uh Kopa. You hang out with Shay. I'm going to be with them."

"Alright."

Kiara ran off.

Kopa walked over to Shay, who was sleeping in the plains. "Shay! Wake up!"

"I'm up," Shay lifted his head and opened his eyes.

(Shay 19, Shay means, "Admirable")

"Let's play something," Kopa said. Shay stood up and stretched, "Alright. What are we playing?" "How about I spy," Kopa suggested. "Sure."

"Ok, I'll go first. Hmm I spy...something green," Kopa said. Shay looked around, "Tree?" Kopa nodded. "Ok uh..I spy, something...tall," Shay said.

"Tree," Kopa replied. Shay nodded. "Ok, I spy something...with bark," Kopa explained. "Tree?" Shay asked. "Ah," Kopa nodded.

Shay looked around, "Ok I spy something...a vertical log." Kopa instantly said Tree. Shay nodded, "Yep."

"Ok I spy-" Shay cut Kopa off, "Tree." "Ah!" Kopa nodded.

"Ok, my turn," Shay said. "Tree!" Kopa shouted. "No No. I didn't even spy anything!" Shay replied. "It's counts!" Kopa argued. Shay nodded.

Kopa looked around. "Tree," Shay said sarcastically. Kopa sighed, "Let's play something else."

Kion yawned and woke up. He jumped instantly at seeing Kovu right infront of him. "Outlanders don't sleep in," Kovu said. Kion nodded, "It won't happen again."

"Good. Now, the first part of your training, will be knowing Scar was the rightful king. If you don't believe Scar was the best king the Pridelands ever had, then you fail," Kovu explained.

Kion nodded, "Scar is the rightful leader."

Sarabi ran up into the sky, Mufasa on her tail, "Sarabi don't!"

"No one hurts Kion! I'm not going to let him be in pain!" Sarabi growled, "Mohatu!"

Mohatu appeared infront of her, "Hello Queen Sarabi."

(Mohatu, dead, Mohatu means, "Was Loved")

Sarabi roared and attacked Mohatu, but Mufasa held her back. Sarabi growled.

"Look, I know you're upset about my decision, but Kion needs to take care of himself before he can defend others," Mohatu explained.

"That's bullshit!" Sarabi roared. "Watch your language or you'll be down with Scar," Mohatu said firmly. Sarabi glared at him.

"The Kings and I had a vote. Majority said Kion should lose the Roar. And so we took it," Mohatu sat there calmly.

Sarabi dug her claws into the clouds. "Now I suggest you keep to yourself. Don't interfere with anything," Mohatu ordered.

"Fine. But can I see how Kion is doing?" Sarabi asked. Mohatu nodded. He dug his paw into the clouds, and separated them. A hole appeared. Sarabi looked down, seeing Kion, in the Outlands.

"WHAT!"

"Seems like he's joined the other side. It's a good thing we took the Roar from him," Mohatu stated.

Sarabi roared with rage. She grabbed him by the mane on his chest, "Listen here you stupid king. My grandson will never turn evil. He is the best lion to ever exist. Much better than you!"

Mohatu growled. A lioness walked up, "Mohatu, what's going on?" "Sarabi hated my decision for taking Kion's roar!" Mohatu shouted to his mate, Kamaria.

(Kamaria, dead, Kamaria means, "Moonlight")

Kamaria looked at him coolly, "Mohatu sweetie. I'm gonna invite you to shut up."

Mohatu frowned at his mate. Sarabi let go of him, and he dropped softly on the clouds.

Kamaria looked at Sarabi, "I alao disagree with the decision that was made, but we are just queens. King's have more power over us," Kamaria explained.

"I think thats stupid," Sarabi rolled her eyes. "I agree," Kamaria dipped her head.

"Sorry ladies. A decision was made. No turning back now," Mohatu shrugged. Sarabi roared at him, "You still have the Roar here! Give it back to my grandson!"

"I'm afraid I can't do that," Mohatu replied.

"Fine then. I'll make you," Sarabi approached him.
