[Closed] Out Of The Pridelands

"Ranger, be a good cub and don't question your father" Zira said to him with a tinge of warning in her tone as she looked down at the cub with a serious expression.

Meanwhile, Simba and Nala had picked up Zazu and were headed to the waterhole. Zazu flew overhead. "Step lively. The sooner we get to the waterhole, the sooner we can leave," he called out.

Simba turned to Nala. "We're really going to an Elephant Graveyard," he whispered.

Ranger quickly muttered, "Yes, mother," and returned to staring off into the distance.

"Wow!", exclaimed Nala. Realizing she might of been a little loud, she quietened down and whispered to Simba, "So how are we gonna ditch the dodo?".

[KingKovu44]

Simba nodded and began to whisper a plan to Nala. Just then, Zazu flew down to the two cubs. "Ah, little seeds of romance blossoming on the savannah. Your parents will be thrilled, especially with you two being betrothed and all," he said to the cubs.

Simba looked at the hornbill curiously. "Be-what?" he asked, wondering what Zazu meant.

Zazu smiled. "Betrothed, intended, affianced," he continued, trying to get it through to the cub.

Simba gave him another strange look. Zazu saw this.

"One day, you two are going to be married!" he exclaimed with utter delight.

Simba gave a disgusted look to Nala, as if to say "Did you hear that?!".

[UncoordinatedPisces]

(( Sorry, been rather busy ))

Nala gave an equally disgusted look to Simba, then to Zazu,
"Eww, I can't marry him, he's my friend!".

[KingKovu44]

Zazu gave a look at the cubs. "Well, I'm sorry, but you two have no choice. It's a tradition going back generations," he said with a proud expression.

Simba looked at Nala and then back at Zazu. "Well, when I'm king, that will be the first thing to go," he said.

Zazu smirked. "Not so long as I'm around," he said.

Simba smiled cockily. "Well, in that case, your fired," he said. He looked at Nala. "Doesn't that sound good, Nala?" he said.

[UncoordinatedPisces]

Nala was laughing at the two's conversation, and laughed even more when Simba tried to fire Zazu,
"Uh huh, and you are future King, so it would definitely happen!".

[KingKovu44]

Zazu scoffed. "Nice try, you two. Only the current king can do that, and from the way you're acting, you're shaping up to be a very poor king indeed," he said.

Simba laughed as he saw that they had arrived at the waterhole. "Not the way I see it," he said. He then jumped on a rock. "OH I JUST CAN'T WAIT TO BE KING!" he exclaimed, sending the other animals running off in a frenzy. In the frenzy, Zazu was lost. "Come on, Nala," Simba said.

[UncoordinatedPisces]

Nala beamed at him as the two cubs ran away from there babysitter,
"Good one Simba!".
