This fanfiction takes place after the events of the Lion King 2 and Lion Guard. Most of the familiar characters are here: Mufasa, Sarabi, Simba, Nala, Kiara, Kovu, Vitani, Kion, Rani, and Varya's Streak. The rest are new ones from two YouTube series called My Pride and Feral Pride. Kion and Rani are visiting the Pridelands to see his parents, grandparents, sister, brother-in-law, and Kamili and Kali who are his nieces. Varya's tiger cubs are grown and live in the Pridelands. She and Baliyo have three liger cubs, two daughters, and a son. Kyoga, Karabi, Hover, Nothing, and Feather also live in the Pridelands with Simba's pride. We will follow the adventures of Alaster, Dasker, Huata, and Sunny as they stumble upon the Pridelands. If you guys haven't seen My Pride or Feral Pride, I recommend you watch those before reading this so you're familiar with the rest of these characters. As of now, Feral Pride has 21 episodes and is on hiatus and My Pride has eight episodes. The other members of the night pride, Varya's streak, and Kion and Rani's daughters are minor characters that will appear in a couple chapters. The other members of Vitani's lion guard are also minor characters. Dasker and Huata are mates and their pups are Sunny and Alaster. After the events of the Lion Guard, Chuluun decided to stop being evil and surrounded herself with good snow leopards and other friendly leopards like Badili. Now she's reformed and lives at the Tree of Life. Kopa and Malka will be in this story as well as Chumvi and Kula. Kopa is Simba's brother and Malka is Simba's good friend in the story. I won't spoil who Chumvi and Kula are in this story. I want you all to wonder. It'll be surprising, that's all I'll say. Also, this is an AU where Nothing didn't get injured in her fight with Quickmane.
Most of these characters belong to Disney. The rest belong to TribbleofDoom and Feral Pride over on YouTube.
After losing her parents at a young age to a murderous lion and facing abuse from her mean spirited aunt, a young African-Romani woman named Shani runs away from her village and ends up wandering off in the savannah. After having a run in with three hyenas, she is ultimately rescued by a strong Lion King named, Mufasa.
After having done something for one of his pride members, he returns the favor and takes her in. She gets to know his queen Sarabi and his young cub named Simba. During her time with Mufasa and his pride, she comes to realize that they have more of connection then they thought. After tragedy strikes once again, Shani and Simba are sent into exile and they run away into a jungle to be taken in by a meerkat named Timon and a warthog named Pumbaa.
When they are forced to return to The Pridelands to face Mufasa's evil brother Scar, will Shani fight her fears to help Simba take his place as king and find out who she truly is within herself?
I only own Shani and the rest of my OCs.
