The Lion King 4 : Vita Kuu (great war) aka Kiara and Kovus pride

chapters 5-6

chapter 5 - shall we?

Kovu and Kiara went to the spot that they had re-met, only 4 nights ago, when Simba had exiled Kovu.

"and love did find a way" smiled Kovu nuzzling Kiara, and getting a feeling of overpowering love and excitement they got every time they touched. they pushed into eachother, and they were unable to pull apart.

"Kiara?" Kovu asked

"Yeah?" She whispered back, thinking she knew what he was going to say

"well, the other day? when I said that we should run away and start a pride of our own?"

"Kovu! No! we are finally happy here! we cant just leave!" she hissed, frustrated that he could think of doing so.

"No! listen! I don't want to leave and start a pride" he whispered, before pushing her onto her back and smiling at her

"I want to stay, and start a family!" he grinned

"then we will have a family" replied Kiara

And this time, when Kovu flopped onto Kiara,

she didn't try to push him off.

Chapter 6- an unexpected arrival

Early the next morning, before the fire orange sun had even begun to rise and the pearly moon had not yet set, Kiara and Kovu awoke earlier than anyone else to make sure that all of the animals got a drink from the waterhole, before the lions got there and scared them away. They had not spoken about the cub that Kiara was carrying. In their hearts, they knew that anything could happen to this fragile and unborn cub. Kovu raised his head over the tall grass. He could smell a lion, one that was not from his pride. The pride that he was currently the king of. A snarl jumped into his throat. Was it just the scent of a lion that had left yesterday? He asked himself. Kiara nuzzled him. The scent was not dissimilar to hers. More musty, and sweaty though Thought Kovu to himself. Once the last struggling antelope, a young girl that had lost her mother and father in the struggle, and now was with her auntie,was at the Waterhole, Kiara and Kovu crept back to pride rock, to awaken their pride.

"Kiara, there's someone in our pridelands!" Whispered Kovu.

Kiara took a smell of the ground.

"Its another male Lion. I wonder whether he is here for dad. Maybe to join the prideland fighters?" She whispered

They arrived to pride rock, and all the lionesses were gathered around something - someone. Kiara and Kovu padded up to him. He was large and muscular, he had a wild red mane that stuck out at every angle. His fur was unkempt and messy, in a similar colour to Kiara's, just a little duller. He smiled warmly at Kiara, but a flash of confusion ran trough his eyes when he caught sight of Kovu. Sarabi was sat by this young males side, nuzzling him affectionately.

"Who are you?" Demanded Kiara, frowning at this scruffy male of around Kovu's age

He grinned.

"Who's asking"

"The queen of pride rock, that's who!" Snapped Kiara, who didn't take kindly to being teased at the best of times, let alone by a stranger!

"Ooh, my sister, a Queen!" Gasped the stranger, sarcastically.

"She asked you who you were, now answer her!" Snarled Kovu, putting his nose close to the male.

"Bit too young for a Boyfreind, aren't you sis?" Sneered the male

Kiara gasped, eyes wide

"That's right! Kopa has returned!" He smiled

Kiara took a deep breath, before her eyes rolled back. She fainted.
