The heat made him sweat under his dark brown fur and he wasn't even training. This place is a terrible place to live. He should know, he lived here since he was a little cub. Because that murdering brute exiled his mother and her pride for stating the truth. A growl left his throat, from just thinking about that golden tyrant.

"Let me guess...you're thinking about Simba?"

The growling stopped as he turned his emerald green eyes to the sound of the voice. To see a teen rusty golden lioness.

"How did you know?"

The female rolled her pale amber eyes in annoyance. "When is it ever a time you're not thinking about him"

He sighed before snarling. "I can't get what he did out of my head. I can't wait to taste his blood"

His killing rage ended with a confuse look as his ears heard the sound of a loving purr along with a feeling of soft fur against his body. He looked down and seen the rusty golden teen pressed against him and nuzzling into his growing darker brown mane.

"...Asali..."

He choked, not sure how or what to feel from the lioness' affection.

Asali craned her neck and licked the male on the cheek. "Kovu..." she breathed, sending shivers down the chosen one's spine.

Kovu would be a fool if he said he had no affect. Because he soon growled before ushering the female down. He ran his tongue over the female's body. Causing Asali to moan and purr.

Kovu brought his lips to Asali's ear and snarled seductively. "Are you sure? There's no turning back."

Asali growled before lifting her body up, causing Kovu to growl. If Kovu was sweating before, it was nothing compared to him sweating now as he got lost in a web of lust and desire.

"Vitani!"

A teenage light tan lioness groaned before walking out of the termite mound she and her family reside in every night. She stopped once she was a few inches away from a dark pale tan lioness, her red eyes burning into her bright blue ones.

"Yes, mother"

Her voice was monotone which made the Outlands' Queen growl.

"Is there a problem?!"

Vitani sighed and shook her head. "No mother. What is it that you wanted?"

"Fine your brother and tell him to meet me by the borders of the Outlands and Pride Lands"

Vitani raised a thin eyebrow at the older lioness. "Which one"

The dark pale tan lioness growled. "The chosen one! Why would I need that nonsense of waste of fur!"

Vitani sighed deeply before turning and heading towards any direction. In hopes of finding her little brother. After searching nearly every corner of the Outlands she still haven't found the chosen one. She was about to go to the borders before she stopped the search. As know the sun was starting to set and she needed to get back to the mound since tomorrow is the start of a new level of training and she needs all the rest she could get. As she was about to jump over a bush when her older brother ran into her.

"Nuka! What the hell!"

The dingy brown lion looked apologetic before a blush creeped across his dark features.

"Sorry Tani'. But you can't go pass that bush"

The light tan teen growled at the older lion. "Why the hell not?!"

Nuka chuckled nervously before looking at the bush before looking back at his little sister. "Tani, termite is behind there"

Vitani snarled which made the dingy brown male flinch. "That's why I have to go pass the bush. Mother wants Kovu."

"But Vitani...Termite is behind there with Asali and they're not talking"

The light tan teen's bright blue eyes widen as her face paled. The future second in command turned her head and gagged.

"I think I'm going to be sick"

"Heh. You're not the only one. What are we going to do? They're far from finish"

Vitani glared at her brother before sighing. "Let's go distract mother"

Nuka gulped before following his sister towards the direction of the mounds where their mother stood waiting.
