Ahadi does not hate Taka/Scar, which leads to events being altered, providing a very different story then the ones told before.

Prologue

A cry rang out across the Pride lands. It was not a cry of pain, or fear, or sorrow. No, it was a cry of joy. Queen Akase had just given birth to beautiful male lion cubs. Seeing that the birth of the cubs was over, one of the lionesses helping Akase, walked out of the cave to inform the king of this great news.

"Ahadi, sire, I have good news!" the lionesses said gleefully.

"Well? Out with it Kasha!" said Ahadi, very anxious to hear what had happened.

"Well sire, you are now the father of two very healthy sons." Kasha said with a smile.

"D-di-did, you say….two?" Ahadi could hardly keep himself from roaring with pride. He had TWO sons...

"May I see them?" he asked, excitement in his voice.

"Yes sire, the cubs have been cleaned, and you may come into the cave" said Kasha.

Ahadi made his way into the cave and over to his mate. When he got with just a few feet, he could see two distinctive balls of fur nestled in their mother's paws. One had a golden coat of fur like his mother, and the other a deep orange-brown color like that of Ahadi's. He looked from one cub to the other. The golden one was a bit bigger then the orange one, but that didn't matter to him, they where both his son's, and he loved them both from the moment he saw them. Ahadi nuzzled his mate affectionately, receiving a quite purr in return. Akase was very tired from the birth, and needed to rest.

But before she could, Ahadi spoke up."Akase, darling, have you thought of any names?" Ahadi asked.

Akase thought for a moment, before saying, "Mufasa", and motioned towards the golden cub. "And……what do you think Ahadi?" Akase asked when she could not think of another name for her other son.

Ahadi looked at the smaller of the two cubs……"Simba" Ahadi finally said.

"Simba" repeated Akase, "I love it, Mufasa and Simba….." She looked down at her sons, while Ahadi lay next to his mate and newborn cubs.

With a loving sigh, the King and Queen of the Pride lands fell asleep the happiest they had ever felt in their lives.

A/N - When I first released this story, Sulkenwolfpup pointed out that although Ahadi loved his son, he was stilled named Taka which means dirt,or filth. Because of this, I was going to just change his name…but as I was doing this I realized I had no idea where I was going with the story, I was just making it up as I went…not a good idea. BUT, I'm back, and this time, with a new name for 'Scar'. I assure you, it is NOT the Simba you know……just his name and nothing else. Reviews greatly appreciated.
