I was just 3 years old when my mother died. All I remember is the stories people were telling me. They said that I was taken and that my mother was trying to find me. Although i actually remembered what happened. My mother and I were together looking for new flowers for father. Father loved yellow flowers because it reminded him of the Savanna. So as my mother and I were walking there was a black figured that appeared. My mom's eyes widened as she pushed me behind her and the creature started to attack her. That's when she roared for my father. Although she was just protecting me and standing in front of me. Shielding me with her own body. Her (H/C) Scattered all up and down her face. Her (E/C) eyes were going dull as i started to cry for her to get better. Although that's when i heard another roar... my father...he was in his lion form and jumped on the creature scratching and hurting this creature. My mother started to whisper a song to me. The one that she would always sing to me when i was scared or stressed. Then as the sound died i felt cold in my mothers arms. I looked at her one last time before i saw my fathers human form. He pulled off my mother from me to check on her. Sadly, he broke down until he saw me. He quickly got to me to check and make sure I was okay. I looked at his emerald green eyes and i felt safe again as i cuddled up to him. He picked me up and held me closer in a safe, yet strong hold. "I have you my cub, i have you..." He took me back home and placed me in my room and stayed by me. My new hyena friend since birth comes in. Her name is Pretty Scar or as i love to call her Scarie. Shes a very energetic and always makes me feel better. Although with my dad he walks out as we play. Then 3 hyena guards come in to check on me. Shenzi is the first one to get to me checking if i had any scars or anywhere bleeding. "You look clean my princess are you alright?" I nodded my head and smiled a bit.

"I'm alright Miss.Shenzi" 

"That's good kid, really good. We can't have our next queen being hurt now can we?" She said in a soft voice.

The other 2 hyenas nod which caused me to nod and Scarie smiled as we hung out. As i grew and grew i kept learning about our kingdom and my other job im supposed to have. With my father being one of the great seven he wishes to retire soon. Although he may be happy with his titles and everything ruling 2 places my father said is difficult. Not only do you have this enchanted forest that is difficult to help heal and connect with. You also have all the beastman that need help and guidance just like he did when he was a cub. My father was always in a one on one with me. We were always straight with each other and that's what made our relationship grew. As my father walks in. "Now my little cub you have to be kind alright. Always thinking of your subjects before yourself. Also, having a balanced mind. But what comes with a strong queen usually comes with...?"

"A even stronger king right? Although father, i don't seem to understand why cant i just do this by myself?" I look at the crown he had in his hand. It was mine but it looked new. 

"Yes my cub you are correct. Although when you become queen you need an anchor like me. Someone that can tell you 'maybe this isn't such a good idea'. Also, someone that you think of to think if this would hurt them. It would help you. Also, yes a king should be stronger than their queen to protect her, and her kind,intelligent, gentle heart. But what people don't see is that they are equally important. Also that they both are in the higher up. The only person that is to be higher is the one with the actual royal blood."

He picked me up and held me for a bit and smiled as he puts me down and placed the crown on my head. As he grabs my hand gently and takes me to the throne room. That's when i saw it. It was just like the creature that attacked my mother. Although, it was 10 times bigger. It was scary and just like my mother, father stood in front of me. He roared for the assistance and the 3 hyenas and Scarie. They all came and took me away as I saw my father get ready to fight. The last thing i see is my fathers black and yellow magic being used before i was in my new home. Now this leads up to my new beginning.
