The new danger in the land

[Adofo]

Nuru: Can we go home? Please?

[TheWhistlerify]

"Yes, of course." Simba slowly stood up with a heavy sigh. "Do you want me to carry you?" Such a traumatic experience must have made Nuru feel quite drained.

[Adofo]

Nuru: ...Yeah.
He climed onto his uncles head to relax.
Nuru: Uncle Simba..... I Just didn't want you and Daddy to end up like Grandpa and Scar...I didn't want you to kill daddy...
His voice wasn't filled with anger. It was filled with concern and sadness.

"I would never kill your father..." said Simba as he slowly took the little cub home. "Why would I?"

[Adofo]

Nuru: Because...you're growing apart. Just like with Scar and Grandpa. I didn't want to lose either one of you!

[TheWhistlerify]

"It's... true that we both have more and more things preventing us from spending time together..." said Simba. He had the throne, not to mention that now his son was back in he Pridelands with a daughter of his own and at least one more cub on the way. Tua himself also has a family of his own now... "But we don't hate each other. Scar couldn't let go of his hate. In the end, that's what destroyed him, my father and the Pride Lands...*

[Adofo]

Nuru: I don't want you and Daddy to grow apart!
He began crying into his Uncles mane.
Nuru: ...please don't grow apart! ...please!

[TheWhistlerify]

"I..." Simba found it a little hard to speak with how Nuru was crying into his mane. "I don't want that, I really don't..."

[Adofo]

Nuru: .....Promise me you won't.

[TheWhistlerify]

Simba sighed. "I promise." He'd think of a solution. He had to.
