Sarabi and Mufasa lazily stretched out on the edge of Pride Rock. Their tails were intertwined and their fur brushed. They were both full from prey and were looking forward to nothing else but sleeping.
"I wonder when Simba and Zazu will be back," yawned Mufasa. "It's getting dart."
"In due time," assured Sarabi as she rested her head on her paws and closed her eyes.
"Mom! Dad!"
"Simba," echoed Sarabi and Mufasa together. Their eyes instantly shown their concern as Simba halted in front of them, panting.
"Simba, what's wrong," asked Sarabi as she brushed her tongue roughly against her son's ruffled pelt.
Simba pushed her away. "Nala's in trouble," he choked. "She was running and she fell into a thorny hole and I can't get her out. She hurt her paw."
"Nala," gasped Mufasa as he rose to his paws and bounded into the den of Pride Rock. He growled and numerous lionesses padded out with their eyes flickering in surprise.
"Nala's in danger," Mufasa roared and the lionesses pricked up. "Follow me everyone!"
Simba was about to follow but Sarabi raised a tail. "We have to tell Sarafina what happened," she told him curtly. "And you are coming with me to do that."
Simba shuddered. This day just got better and better.
