***Intro Post***
Fine, I will just go look on my own again, see how Nuka feels after he realizes he lost me again, Kovu thought, disappearing into the brush. Nuka had been ranting time and again how Kovu couldn't find anything, and how could he expect to become "King" when he couldn't even catch a bite to eat. Like he had any chance, Nuka kept scaring away any animal that had been foolish enough to dwell in the Outlands in the first place. So that is why Kovu got away from him, he would be the one dealing with Zira again. This time, he thought, I won't stick up for him.

Kovu walked through the reeds that grew near the river, looking for something, anything, that he could eat. His ears perked up, there was something there. Stalking slowly through the brush like his mother had shown him, he moved silently, growing closer to the source of the noise. At last, he saw it, a heartbreaking sight. A young antelope, wounded in the leg, was laying down facing away from him, a perfect target. Only it was just across the river. In the Pridelands. Kovu winced as he remembered the day before, when Simba came and roared at him, threatening him. All he had done was seek safety from the alligators in the river, it wasn't like he was going to kill his daughter. His daughter...Kiara? That was it. He should have remembered her name, they had shared a near-death experience! It wasn't like they had long to get acquainted though, with Simba ruining even a simple greeting. At least Zira had been there, before Simba decided to kill him. After all, it was in Simba's nature to kill things, like Scar, as his mother had said. Kovu watched sadly as a group of lionesses came and killed the antelope, dragging it away. Like they needed anymore food. They seemed well fed and happy, the least they could do is through a scrap over here once in a while. All that will change when he becomes king, or at least that is what Zira said. Oh well, Kovu thought, might as well find something to show why I am late to returning back. Kovu turned and walked parallel to the river, looking for a way to scrap up a meal.

Vahvuus Was walking around hi knew home, the pridelands, with a great curiousity, and was getting increasingly excited every minute he stayed in this wonderful place. He couldn't believe how lucky he was that he was allowed to stay here. That was thanks to the king, Simba. He couldn't thank him enough. As he was wandering about aimlessly, he decided to walk to the river, and explore that place a bit more. As he arrived there, he began walking along the edge of it, thinking over everything that had happened to him the past day or so.

Spotty watched as Zira's dark young cub, Kovu, ran off away from his brother again. More than likely, he was frustrated with his elder brother or just hungry.

Today wasn't Spotty's day to hunt. Instead, she dug at the ground with her claws in an effort to find more termites to eat. It was a miserable existence, here in the Outlands. Spotty growled in her throat at the thought of Simba and what he'd done to the small group of lionesses. Scar had been wrongfully dethroned, and Spotty supported Zira to the fullest. She was one of Zira's most loyal lackeys and would follow the mad lioness to any end.

Yes, Spotty knew that Zira was quite mad. But, who wouldn't be, she thought, after their loved one was so brutally murdered? She kept an eye out on the young Outlanders, Zira's offspring, but not enough of an eye to be particularly helpful. It wasn't her job to watch them, anyway.

Vah wandered slowly down the river, taking the time to think about the strenuous last couple of days. Well, they were strenuous, that's for sure, but they were also many other different feelings all rolled into one. Curiosity, excitement and elation were just a few of them. He was even a little fearful that he wouldn't be liked, and even hated for being part of the pride, for being different. He just shrugged that thought off and carried on with his walk, knowing fully that the king, or rather, Simba, wouldn't have let him stay with them if he thought he was a danger to the pride. It wasn't exactly like he would get to know many of the pride members very well too quickly, as he wasn't the sort of person who was good at socialising. Take right now as an example. Instead of being with everybody else, Vah was on his own, doing his own thing. The only way he would really spend much time with anybody was if they talked to him first, but even then, it was hard for anyone to get to know Vah very well.

As he glanced casually over to the other side of the river, he saw a small cub running along, obviously a part of the outlandrs, due to the colour of his fur, and the fact he hadn't seen him around before. He wonderd why everyone thought that the outlanders were much harm at all, they certainly didn't look it, or at least that was what he thought. He felt a little sorry for the cub, not being in contact with any other lions apart from the supposedly 'evil' outlanders, and Vah was actually starting to doubt that. Although Simba hadnt told him exactly why they were exiled and were in the outlands. They couldn't all be that bad, could they? Eventually, his curiousity got the better of him. Looking around, he made sure nobody could see him before crossing over into the Outlands. Nobody would know that he was part of the pridelands, but instead they would think of him as a lone wanderer, a rogue.

Kovu glanced at the occasional bug or two that crossed his path, and even considered pouncing on one of them, but didn't feel like cleaning the residue that would obviously be left behind on his paws. It was then that he stumbled across the familer area from yesterday, where he had cheated death by scrambling up the river bank. Then again, he wasn't alone doing that either...

He stared down the side of the small drop off into the water, looking at the crocodiles below. Having an idea that would keep a curious cub occupied for a few minutes, he found a rather large rock near the bank. Putting some muscle behind it, Kovu pushed the rock off the ledge. The stone in turn sailed down the side of the small cliff, cracking a crocodile over the head. "Let's see you eat that!" he yelled to the angered brute below. It of course didn't do much permanant damage to the beast, but for Kovu it provided a few laughs, a rare commoditiy in the Outlands.

Vah began to walk through his new surroundings, checking everywhere around him for anything unusual. The first thing he noticed about the outlands, was how desolate the place was. There was almost no life in it at all. "How could anybody live here? This place is awful!" he whispered to himself, wondering why they don't just run away instead of living here. He decided to shrug the thought off and continued to explore the place, making sure nobody saw him, not even that cub he saw earlier. He could pose a threat later on by telling somebody he Vah was here.

OOC: I'd really love to post, but there's nobody there to interact with really... Who else is supposed to be participating?

((OOC: Well, all the people who are meant to be in the rp are at the top, but I don't even think Krypt comes on MLK anymore...))

OOC: Then, can I take over as Kovu if he doesn't arrive in time?
