[Open] Fatherly Love

[Nakisisa]

come to think of it, I have not seen Kovu since last night. I thought he was with you.
"He was, but when i woke up he wasn't here" she thought "Have you seen him?"

[MalibuTrashDog]

"He was, but when I woke up he wasn't here" she thought "Have you seen him?"

Simba shook his head. "Nope I haven't seen him, I woke up and went to the watering hole and everything and he had already been gone. I thought perhaps I'd run into him along the way but he is nowhere around here."

[Nakisisa]

... I thought perhaps I'd run into him along the way but he is nowhere around here
"You don't think he's gone back do you?" Kiara asked

[MalibuTrashDog]

Simba scowled. "He is an Outlander by heart, he could have gone back to his mother." He looked up at the sky, sighed, and looked back at Kiara. "You do know that if we find out he was a spy we have to get rid of him?"

[Nakisisa]

You do know that if we find out he was a spy we have to get rid of him?
"Yes, Father" Kiara said sadly, "Do you mind if i go and look for him" she said looking at her father, and his big loving eyes

[MalibuTrashDog]

"Do you mind if i go and look for him?"

Simba sighed again and thought for a moment. "...fine. I suppose you can look for him. But please, stay close by and do not, I repeat, do not enter the Outlands." He looked at Kiara with a very serious face, "if he did return to the Outlands, nothing is stopping him nor Zira from attacking you. Also if you don't want me to have Timon and Pumbaa following you around all the time you'll be wise to stay away from there. You are an adult Kiara, I'm trying to trust you."

[Nakisisa]

...You are an adult Kiara, I'm trying to trust you.
"I... Yes Father" she said, a purr escaping her throat as she nuzzled her father and mother, "I'll be back before dark" she said as she ran off to search the lands for Kovu.

Simba watched Kiara as she ran off with a worried look on his face. "I can't help feeling this is a bad idea..." Nala came up to him, rubbing her head against his side, "why do you think that honey?" He looked at her surprised, "huh? Did I say that out loud?" he chuckled nervously. Nala gave him a look, "Simba, what's wrong with you today?" Simba backed away from her quickly with his head down. "Nothing, nothing... I need to go check on something." With that he ran away and left Nala standing there utterly confused.

As he was making his way down Pride Rock, he ran into Rafiki who was climbing up.

"Ahh King Simba," he said, "we need to talk. Now."

Simba gulped, he felt like things were going to take a wrong turn.

[Nakisisa]

Kiara immediately ran towards the outlands, trying to find Kovu's scent, not noticing Zazu flying above her

---

Zazu had been to all the animal representatives, and he had seen a lioness of the pride heading towards the outlands, now it was time to report back, a few moments later he arrived at pride rock, landing at Rafiki's side he spoke after Rafiki had finished
Ahh King Simba, ... we need to talk. Now.
"Sire i have the report for you"

(Sorry Whistle, Not time yet)

[MalibuTrashDog]

"Sire i have the report for you"

Bewildered, Simba turned to see Zazu wanting to speak to him as well. "Augh, Zazu is it really important? I kind of need to see what Rafiki wants to tell me, sorry Rafiki."

"It is not a problem, let the majordomo speak," Rafiki said sitting down.

"Fine then," Simba sat down as well, "what is it Zazu?"
