Interstate2011: I was thinking, maybe the poachers could have names of their own in a later chapter.

They will

Interstate2011:What was the physical appearance? This includes skin color, hair color (if any hair), hair style (again, if any hair), eye color, accessories (including glasses), and any clothes.

White, black hair, moderately long hair goes down his back, blue, no accessories, and just casual clothing I'm not going to come up with specifics

Interstate2011: Is Kuna a cub, adolescent, or adult?

Adolescent, so basically Kiara's age in the TLK2 movie

Anyways read the message at the end, it's my reasoning for my VERY long hiatus.

The Story Continues

In the Outlands:

The male poacher had his wife sitting against a tree and was treating her bullet wound, and he managed to stop the bleeding and bandage it with his first aid kit in his backpack.

He then spoke up infuriated "God damn it we have to get those lions fur, I don't even want to think about what the boss will do to us if we don't!" He punches the tree leaving a little dent in the trunk.

There then was a rustle in the grass, he quickly grabbed her rifle then thoroughly and quickly looking around, "Who's there?" He calls out wondering if there's another human in this area. Then the grass rustles again as a mysterious lioness with a stripe on her forehead emerges,

"Well, well we have something in common." The lioness says as he looks at her dropping the rifle as he heard her speak English.

"W-What the, d-did you just talk?!", he says out loud, the mysterious lioness rolls her eyes, "So you're just like him then? Yes, we can talk, as for how you can understand us, someone up there must have given you the gift."

He exhales deep, "Okay first there's a boy here in the middle of nowhere, he shoots my wife saving a lioness, then we can understand lions. This day cannot get anymore crazy. Well since you say I have a "gift" to understand you, what do you want?" He sits down and listens.

"I watched your whole encounter with that brat and princess, and I hear that you're interested in their skin, and I'm interested in killing them as well and hearing this boss of yours won't be happy", She then walks up to him with an honest look, "so why don't you let me help you? You get your skin and I get my revenge."

He tilts his head and looks at the menacing looking lioness, "Get your revenge?", she nods and growls lowly, "I still have a bone to pick with their king, Simba. He banished me from the Pridelands, he corrupted my son who is now with his daughter, he took my pride away from me, and above all he's responsible for the death of my mate! Right now, they think I'm dead but with your help we can make them pay!" she said in a loud and angry voice.

He looks at her with surprise in his eyes, "That's horrible! Well I think…". He pauses and rubs his temples thinking about it and conferring with his wife. Then after about a minute he looks back at her, "Count us in!" She smiles and says, "Scar I will not fail you this time I'll be sure to avenge you. Thank you so much um…", She pauses as if to ask our names.

"Oh, it's James." He says to her then looks back at his wife, "Jesse." She says as she sits up and they all shake the lioness' paw. James then looks at her, "May we ask your name?", she grins and says.

"Zira."

6 Months Later:

Jason's P. O. V:

Things have been going rather smoothly at Pride Rock over the last 6 months. Me and Kuna have been very close, and its actually gotten to the point where every lioness has been teasing me to admit that I have a crush on her, but even though each time I deny it I have started to feel a growing bond between us I can't really explain.

At Pride Rock in the Morning:

I awake to the light of the morning sun filling the cave, and me always being the first one to wake up, I get up grab the supplies I need for my morning routines, and take the morning walk to the lake to take my morning bath.

Kuna's P.O.V:

I have woken up along with some other lioness' including Maji and Nyota, and I then walk outside the cave entrance, and sit down looking down the path where Jason always goes in the morning patiently waiting for his return. I then hear some paw steps behind me as I see Maji and Nyota behind me.

"Morning princess, what cha doing? Waiting for your Jason?", Maji says with a chuckle as they always address him as "my" Jason as a way to tease me about my "crush" on Jason.

I roll my eyes, "Maji for the hundredth time he's not my Jason, he's just Jason my friend." She sarcastically nods, "Mhm, sure he is.", she says.

I then see Jason at the bottom of Pride Rock returning from his routine. Then I hear both Maji and Nyota whispering behind my back. I look behind me and see Nyota let out a slight giggle.

"What are you two talking about?" They both look at me with big grins and Maji says loud enough to wake up everyone in the cave, "Hey Kuna, think fast!"

And before I can ask why she shoves me down the slope I let out a shriek of surprise as I roll down the slope, "Jason Incoming!", I yell out to get Jason's attention, but it was too late as I collide with him and we roll a bit and we come to a stop as I pin him to stop us, but then notice the position we are in.

There were Oooos, and giggles from the other lionesses at the top of the hill specifically from mom as she was giggling at the sight and dad was sitting there with his eyes wide and shocked face. I blush furiously and shoot a mad look in Maji's direction, "Oh, she is so dead!" I say in my head as I look down at Jason whom is blushing as well.

I get off him so he can get up, "S-Sorry Jason.", "Don't worry about it Kuna." We start to walk back up and I glare at Maji and Nyota as Nyota starting singing, "Kuna and Jason sitting in a tree, L-I-C-K-I-N-G. First comes love, then comes marriage, then comes cub-MPF!"

I cover her mouth to make her stop, "Muzzle it!" I snap angrily making Nyota squeak in freight then I storm into the cave growling at any lioness who was laughing.

Jason's P.O.V:

I look at Maji with a annoyed face, "Please don't tell me you pushed her.", she smirks and says, "Maybe I did, maybe I didn't." I scoff, "Wiseass."

I walk over to Nala and royally kneel, "Hello my queen when do we go hunting today?", "Once the sun reaches its peak." She says then tries to hide a chuckle. I roll my eyes and walk down the other hill and sit in my private spot.

"Someone looks upset." I hear a voice say, I look around and see Timon and Pumba, "Oh hey Timon, Pumba." They walk up to me and Timon jumps on the rock next to me and speaks up "So why the mad face Jassy boy?"

"Well Maji just humiliated me and Kuna, she shoved her down the hill making her pin me and you can guess the rest." Pumba starts laughing, "Shut it Pumba!" I snap and he stops, "Oh, sorry."

"I hate that they keep thinking we have crushes on each other." Then Timon says, "Well kid I know what true love looks like and I can tell there's some bond happening between you two so it's kinda hard to hide Jason." I sigh, "It's that obvious huh?" They chuckle, "Well look who finally admitted it." I chuckle and nod.

"Hey don't worry we won't tell anyone, the only way I'd say is best to show her is to do something special with her.", I look at him, "But how can it work we're two completely different species?"

He looks at me with a smile, "Listen Jason it's not about the exterior its what's in your heart that matters. Remember kid, Hakuna Matata." I chuckle and nod, "It means no worries, for the rest of your days", They join me for that part of the song, "It's our problem free, philosophy, Hakuna Matata.", "Thanks, Timon you're a good friend to have around." He nods with a smile.

In the Outlands:

Jesse's bullet wound has healed and she and James are plotting with Zira, "So obviously we're gonna need more than just us three to take down their whole pride.", James says and then Zira simply smiles.

"I have an idea, there is a pride beyond the Outland border who's king would absolutely kill for the chance to take down Simba."

Jesse gives a confused look, "What makes you so sure Zira?", "Because he was part of my pride when we got banished and he left at a young age to find a better home just in case I ever needed a backup plan to take him down, and last I heard about him he is the current king of the pride he got to. So, we're gonna walk to his pride now and request his help in our mission." The couple nods with a grin on their faces, "Lead the way Zira."

I kindly ask that you read this

Hey my friends, yes I'm still alive. So you all deserve an explanation for my absence, so here it is. School has been an absolute thorn in my side and I've been trying hard to survive, also I got into my first relationship, but it ended after a month and I was incredibly hurt for a while. Also my depression has been catching up to me and I just haven't been motivated to really do anything productive. Again, I'm incredibly sorry I've been absent for so long. And also yes the poachers are names after Jesse and James from Pokemon
