The old queen's sight blurred and she limped back to Pride Rock. Blood trickled down from her shoulder, turning the stones on the ground red.
She couldn't do this anymore. She tried her best to keep up with the rest of the pride, but the pain of the wounds and how much she was bleeding slowed her down.
Before she knew it, she collapsed onto the ground, panting. Her granddaughter, Kiara, swiveled her head and saw the lioness. Sarabi's ears rang, and her vision blurred. She watched Simba pad over to her, and heard his voice a bit over the ringing."Mother? Mother..." She watched tears begin to form, and she watched him lay down and begin grooming her. She was too weak to purr.
A few moments passed, and Sarabi slowly closed her eyes, accepting her fate. Her heart then stopped, and her body went cold.
