There are many lions in the Pridelands. Each new season brings new life and tragic loss. This is the story about 1 cub. Me. Kivuli. How I started of so promising, how I was thrown aside, my escape and my return

It was during the early days of Scars reign over the Pridelands I was born. My father was an un-named rogue and my mother was a shady lioness called Saria. We endured hard times, but worse was still to come. Scar took my mother aside one day and ordered her to pick up the slack as she was spending too much time with me, She refused to reject her love for me and was punished with death. However I thought her death was only an accident. For many seasons I smelt the air of lies surrounding my mothers death and I became suspicious. Along with my friends we trained. Not knowing what for but we did so in case it was needed. It was. My story begins again 3 days before the return of Simba, when I was still adolescent

[KingKivuli]

By this time we were in deep within Scars reign over the land. Or what was left of it. The past kings had made sure that there was food and water for everyone, but Scar did not. He let the hyenas run wild on the lands. In a few seasons everything was destroyed. Thew trees were bare, the grass was dead and the waterhole dry. Scar didnt care. As long has he was full of food and he was obeyed or lives meant nothing. I longed for change. This is my story of how it happened...

It was another dark day. The lands were quiet, still with no life. Dark thunder clouds were starting to form in the sky. Down the the edge of Priderock, the late adolescent, Kivuli looked up at the clouds and smiled. 'Thank the great kings' he said 'just when i though the rain wouldn't come, it looks like it will' As Kivuli pondered about the approaching storm he heard a scuffle from behind him. As he turned his head to look, Kivuli saw it was a rat. A big rat at that. Perfect snack. Kivuli rose to his legs and stalked the rat till it stopped. In one quick precise pounce he caught it.

Kivuli licked his lips. As he went in to eat his kill another lion appeared in front of him. It was Scar 'What have you got there boy? Hand it over' Scar was very demanding in his request Kivuli was not worried in the slightest. Despite being younger, Kivuli was big for his age, almost as big as Scar. He replied 'Its my lunch Scar and theres no way your getting it, you already have had food. I havnt in 2 days. This is my kill' Scar was taken back with the reaction and spoke even harsher 'Hand it over now boy' Kivuli responded by taking the rat and eating it in just a few gulps ' Get it now your highness'

Scar was raged 'How dare you defy your king' Scar then raised his paw and swung for Kivuli. The impact left two gashes on the left side of Kivuli's face as it began to drip with blood 'Let that be a lesson boy. Ill deal with you later' Scar then walked off. When he was a short distance away Kivuli muttered to himself 'Your no king, your a tyrant' With that Kivuli lay down and tried to clean the blood off his face which was running down and dripping off onto the rock and dust below

[Moka]

Scar took a last look at Kivuli as he was entering the den of Pride Rock. The young lion was caring for his eye. From the look of it, he would wear the scars forever. Scar looked at his claws. They still were dripping with Kivuli's blood. He shook it off. Brat. he thought. Scar stepped over the threshold of the den and laid down inside. There were a few lionesses in the den who stared at him. He ignored them. A young lion rose up from the crowd. Scar watched him as he walked out of the den. The young lion was Kokota, Kivuli's younger brother. He was a bit smaller, brown coat and a black tuft of hair.

Kokota immediately saw his brother. He seemed to be in pain. "Kivuli!" he said, running to him. He had two large gashes on his left eye. "Kivuli, what happened?"

[KingKivuli]

Whilst tending to his injury, a familier voice came from behind Kivuli. The adolesant turn to see who it was, reavealing the full extent of his beaten eye. Oh hey Kokota Kivuli lent over and gave his brother a loving hug. That tyrant did this. I caught a rat and was going to eat it. He demanded I give it to him. I refused and just ate it. So he just swung at me The blood still dripped fresh. The scars looked bad but the actual eye was still ok. The eyellid ad surrounding area was the zone that had he punishment

[LilTiger]

Then, Laini came running towards Kivuli. She saw him talking to Kokota. Laini was in love with Kivuli. she wanted to marry him and have cubs. She ran over to him. "Hi Kivuli!" Then, Laini kissed him on the cheek. Then, Laini saw that he was hurt. "Kivuli?! What happened to your eye?!" Then, Laini licked it. then, she smelled it. "My father did this?!" Laini knew she didn't wait for an answer, but it was true, Scar did this to her love.

[NightyByeSparrow]

Rather nostalgically, Sarafina lay on the edge of Pride Rock, and as she looked at the dead remains of the land that once was so full and teeming with life. Sarafina was now just another lioness who lived in fear and hatred of Scar for what he had done, and more importantly, she strongly missed her daughter, Nala, who had gone missing a couple of days ago, and Sarafina wondered if her cub would ever come back.

The lioness turned around at Kivuli, Laini, and Mokota, and quietly looked at what she assumed to be Kivuli's new scar.

"Kivuli? Sure you're fine?" Sarafina was known for not being very talkative, but she couldn't help but express a little bit of worry for the adolescent.

[KingKivuli]

Recovering from his wound, Kivuli became surrounded by his friends and family. It was a comfort knowing that in this dark time they still had each other. Thank you. All of you. I will be fine. I just have to live with these scars. Kivuli then turned his head toward the den, where Scar was. The rest of the group joined him. He has gone too far. Im tired of this, we all are. Im going to make you all a promise. I am going to train hard, then when im ready I will challenge that tyrant. His friends faces were all eagerly watching him. Kivuli looked round the group. I promise I will set us free. Id rather live with all of us taking lead, then let us be driven to ruin by him

[LilTiger]

Laini kissed Kivuli. "Even though Scar is my father, me must take over! then, Laini looked at the others. She thought of something that she had to ask. And even wondere something else:"Did Nala leave for help?". Thenn, Laini nuzzled Kivuli again. "I have one question, who's gonna be queen?"

[KingKivuli]

Kivuli thought nothing of the kiss and nuzzle. He saw it at as nothing more as a friendly gesture. His mind was fixed on the task at hand. Right now deciding who will be what can wait. We just need to take care of Scar first. Kivuli then turned to Kokota Brother, will you train with me? We stand a better chance if we do this together. At the very least I will get stronger. It our duties as the males of this pride

[Moka]

"Of course." Kokota replied. "I want nothing more than to rid ourselves of this tyrant. I think it might be safer to talk about this further from Pride Rock, though." Kokota wanted revenge for what Scar had done to the pride and to his brother. "You're lucky he missed your eye. You could've gone blind from a scratch like that."
