Disclaimer: I do not own The Lion King 2 or any of its characters; I also do not own Tomb Raider or any of its characters; however Catalina Morianez is a character I made up.
Also, my Swahili is not very good; the two phrases in this fic are taken from a translation website and even then I had multiple results, so do not be surprised if the words in the wrong order or are wrong altogether.
I know this story sounds like it should be in the Tomb Raider section but trust me, after chapter 2 it will have more to do with TLK2; so any non Tomb Raider fans reading this, don't worry.
The story is set some time after Kovu saves Kiara from the fire, but before Zira exposes Kovu to Simba. In terms of the Tomb Raider games, the story is set some time after Tomb Raider: Legend. Now I've said what I have to say. I hope you enjoy the story.
P.S. Please Review!

Hello lads.
I hope you're both enjoying your vacations and that Zip you are managing to stay out of jail for once LOL. However when you lads get back we've got more work to do.
I have just received a commission from my old pen friend in Mexico Catalina Morianez; apparently while she was on a trip to Kenya she heard a rumour of an old tomb buried underground in the African savannah and thought I might be interested. It is rumoured to contain ancient treasure of unknown origins. Apparently the entrance is located somewhere around an old landmark of some kind.
I've sent you both the details along with the coordinates Catalina provided me with for you to look over when you get back to see what you can find.
See you soon.

Hello Lara.
Scotland is as boring as hell. You were right I should have gone to Florida with Zip. Thanks for the reading material by the way; I was so bored that I decided to have a look through it now.
According to research there is no record of any tomb or temple in or around the location you provided me with. However I did come across the phrases 'Takua Gebali' and 'Takua Ardhi'; I don't have a translation yet but I do remember seeing similar phrase engraved on the stone slab you brought back the last time you were in Africa, this may be a long shot but it may be connected to this supposed tomb; I'll take a look at it when I get back.

Hey Lara!
Return flights been delayed until 12pm tonight so I've taken some time to make preparations for this little trip.
I've done some checking around on the coordinates you gave me. Recently there have been reports of crazy interference on all radio frequencies in that area; therefore we won't be able to contact you during this mission, so you'll be on your own.
There's also more bad news. Studies of that area show that it's situated right between the dens of two lion prides so you'll need to be extra careful. I'll give you the full lodown when I get back.
