Nova and Neo

[Shadowfax]

Nova gave a sigh. She was exhausted and a little tired at Zira's harsh words. Though she was pleased Neo approved of the cubs.

"I was hoping i'd have them in the pride lands. Still, we will take it back soon enough" She said smiling.

[Nukascar1]

"With them if nesccery"He smiled Neo was still inexpeianced he was still just a adolesent lion but he did have one thing. One advantage over Simba and any of his pride he felt his only purpose in life was to kill and Zira made constat use of this

(Time skjip

[Shadowfax]

The months went on and Vex and Taka grew into strong, healthy cubs, despite living in the outlands. They had learnt quickly, that Zira had little tolerance of them and Nova tried her best to keep them away from her.

Vex was stalking a bug one day, practicing her hunting. She was surprisingly quiet on her feet and she had learnt this quickly.

Nova looked up and smiled as she saw her daughter.

[Nukascar1]

Neo had took residence in a cave a couple hours away Neo didn't trust himself around his cubs. He didn't like the thought that at any moment he could change that was only good whenever he was faceing one of thouse foul pridlanders. That hadn't been he didn't snap though blood was splatted over the walls from when he thought he was the enemy.

[Shadowfax]

Nova looked over her shoulder and sighed. Neo had been so distant ever since the cubs had arrived. She felt so alone and hoped he would be back soon.

At that moment, Vex pounced on the unsuspecting bug and killed it. Pleased with herself, she picked it up in her mouth and trotted over to her mother.

"Look! I caught you a meal" She said proudly.

Nova laughed and nuzzled her cub gently.

"Good work"

"When's father coming back?" she asked suddenly, causing Nova's gaze to fall to the floor.

"I don't know young one"

[Nukascar1]

Neo stood up abye his mother had thought of a new mission for him most of the lionesse's were on guard

(I gotta go now sorry)

[Shadowfax]

"He never plays with us anymore. Or teaches us to fight" Vex said, retracting her claws in a very Neo like fashion.

Nova looked up and licked her cub on the head gently.

"Im sure he'll be back in his own time. I miss him too, but we do have business with the pride lands" Nova said, standing up.

"Can we go and spy on them again! I'll be quiet this time" Vex said, excitedly.

"Alright Vex, lets go" Nova said, her cub trotting after her.

[Nukascar1]

Neo stood up he had had enough his mother better of thought of somethijng better to do then hunting he wanted to fight. He stealthly walked into her den useing the shadows as cover.

[Shadowfax]

Nova and Vex were on the corners of the pride lands. They had picked their usual spot and Vex was keenly watching pride rock from afar. Nova, was distant and her mind elsewhere. She sighed, unaware of the approaching danger.

"YOUR NOT SUPPOSED TO BE HERE!" Came a snarl from behind her.

Before Nova could react, a lioness, had leapt on her back and pinned her down.

"Mother!"Vex yelled and jumped on the lioness' back, sinking her tiny teeth into her back.

Nala, who was with the group, grabbed Vex and pulled her off the other lioness' back and held her by the scruff of the neck, the cub thrashign her paws around trying to hit her.

"Get your filthy paws off her!" Nova snarled, trying to break free, but there were now three lioness' pinning her down as they knew how stealthy Nova was.

"You know the laws Nova. Why you have returned is beyond me, but to bring a cub?!" Nala growled.

"Neo's daughter im guessing? Yes.. Kovu wants to be sure Neo stays away from the pridelands... Im sure your daughter will be a useful bartering tool" Another lioness said, analyzing Vex.

"NO!" Nova yelled, but she was then hit so hard across the face, she fell into unconciousness.

"Come, let us return this cub to King Kovu. She won't be stupid enough to come alone" said one of the lioness' as she looked at Nova's form.

"Mother! Father! HELP!" Vex called as they proceeded towards pride rock.

[Nukascar1]

"Mother I need orders am not going to wait around anymore"he said the gubg ho adolesent walked to Zira "Please let me do something."
