"Welcome Kion to The Tree Of Life."

"Woah!" Kion was shocked by how big the kingdom was, it was actually bigger than the Pridelands.

Rani smiled at Kion shocked face but quickly turned to Baliyo and said.

"Hey do you think dad gonna let us play with him."

"I don't know Rani but I am sure and mom and grandmother will."

After Baliyo said that they both quickly went following the elders. Janna then proceeded Kion to show a den and said.

"Ok Kion this is your den I hope you like it."

"Do I like it I love it. Thank you everyone you have been so kind to me."

Kion said as he quickly bowed. Janna smiled at him and wondered how Simba could do this to such a nice cub and as a matter of fact his own son. But there was one more thing in Janna's mind.

"If he is the second born then he will get the Roar Of The Elders sooner or later." Janna said in her mind.

"Kion why don't you rest it's been a long night."

"Ok." Kion said as he went in into his new den.

The Sun rose above as many animals started to wake. The sunrays hit Rani's eyes as she finally got up. She adjusted her eyes to the light and saw that her mom and dad had already woke up and left the Tree. She then saw Baliyo who had turned his head in the other direction so the sun rays can't reach his eyes.

"Baliyo come on wake up." Rani said waking up her little brother.

"Come on Rani go back to sleep, it's till early in the morning."

"Oh come on Baliyo you do realise we have to go see Grandmother today she is going to tell us what are we going to do after we grow up."

"Ok ok I get it." Baliyo said as he got up and adjusted his eyes to the light. Baliyo and Rani both went to looking for Janna. When they found she was drinking water from the watering hole.

"Grandmother Janna." Both cubs said together.

"Ahh yes I promised you didn't I, I will tell what you both will do when you become old."

"So grandmother please tell us." Baliyo said out of patience.

"Ok, ok. First Rani, as the first born you will become the queen of the Tree Of Life and for a certain period leader of the Night Pride.
And for you Baliyo you will become the leader of the night pride after Rani steps down but until then you will be a member."

"Grandmother I have one more question yesterday when Kion went to sleep why were looking at him like you knew him." Rani asked.

Janna was shocked that she noticed it but we quickly replied.

"You see Rani and Baliyo there was not always war between the Tree Of Life and Pridelands, actually before Scar's reign there was a peace treaty between us. But Scar obviously broke it. But you see as the second born cub of the King of the Pridelands Kion will possess a special power known as the Roar Of The Elders. When he will use it great lions of the past will roar with him. Actually the Roar was here years ago a lion named Askari actually channeled the road here at the cika escarpment. But for now we still have to wait."

"Grandmother we were wondering can we play with Kion." Baliyo asked.

"There's no need to ask dear, you can play with him as much as you and he likes." Janna said as she finally got up and went into her own direction.

"Ok we have got permission let's go then." Rani said running towards Kion's den.

"Hey wait for me Rani." Baliyo said running behind her.

Kion was awake he was actually drinking water from the watering hole very near his den. He then heard a noise from behind.

"Kion-kion do you want to play." Rani asked.

"Sure but what will we play." Kion said.

"Oh I know, I know tag." Baliyo suggested.

"Ok tag your it." Rani tagged Kion.

Kion then ran after Baliyo and tagged him. Only sometime went by and again it was Kion's turn he was again running after Baliyo. Baliyo ran as fast as he could but due to Kion being he was easily able to catch up but Baliyo then tumbled on a rock and fell over and Kion he was not able to stop and time and tumbled on Baliyo as well. After little rolling Kion pinned Baliyo and said.

"Tag your it." Kion said.

Rani reached there as fast as she could and laughed when Kion said those words.

But Sahasi was just taking a stroll when he saw Kion pinning his son Baliyo and quickly rushed over there and pushed Kion off him. And then proceeded to growl at him standing in front of Baliyo. Kion tucked his ears back and slowly behind scared Rani quickly came in front of Kion.

"Dad why did you do that we were just playing." Rani said.

"Oh playing is that what you call it when Kion pinned down Baliyo." Sahasi said.

"Dad it was my fault-" Baliyo was cut off by Sahasi.

"You two will play with from now on. And Kion this is your last chance if you want to stay here better keep your pawn off my cubs." Sahasi growled at Kion one last time and started walking away, picking up Baliyo with his scruff. Rani started to walk away with her dad but turned around one last time and said.

"Sorry Kion." After she said that she walked away with her father.

Kion couldn't believe it, he was now feeling like he was in the Pridelands this is how his father treated him. Kion was afraid Sahasi would give him another scar. Tears started rolling out his eyes. He then decided something. He would leave the Tree Of Life at night when no one's there.
