Lost (Private & Strict)

Kokota laughed. "C'mon, Chissa you know I can't. I have a job to do." He circled the pool. It did look inviting to take a cool bath in the middle of the hot day, but he couldn't abandon his duty.

[serra20]

"Oh...C'mon,Kokota...Only few minutes out there...Together..."she said and smiled.

[Moka]

"No, Chissa. Kovu would be very grumpy if he saw me slacking off." Kokota said. "I have to finish patrolling, I'll see you later." Kokota walked away from her, but she was the only thing in his mind. He couldn't concentrate.

[serra20]

Chissa looked at him sadly."Oh well,as you wish,my friend..."she smiled and went to the PrideRock.She was tired so she layed down near the entrance of the cave.
Vitani appeared."Oh hello Chissa.Where's Kokota?I thought you're with him..."
"Uh no,he had to finish his duties.I'm tired,mom.I wanna sleep for a while."
"Okay Chissa."Vitani said and layed down near her.

When Kiara was done she smacked her lips. What a meal! She sighed. She felt like taking a walk outside just to enjoy the scenery. Kiara got up and walked off.

Vitani stood up and leaved Chissa alone.She went to go around the PrideLands again.
Chissa woke up.She saw that her mother is away so she stood up too."Where's Kokota?I thought he came back...I think I'll better look around where is he..."she said to herselfand went out of the PrideRock to look for Kokota.

[Moka]

Kokota was walking alongside the river of the Pride Lands. He was looking across the river, especially into the bushes for any movements. He turned his head to look downriver, and he saw a lioness drinking from the other side. At first he was startled, but when he looked closer he saw that the lioness was in fact, quite old. She still had strength in her arms and legs, but it looked as if she found it difficult to move. The lioness was lapping her tongue at the water and had her head down. She was unaware of Kokota's presence.

He decided to hide behind a bush and watch her. She continued to drink, as if she hadn't in days. Kokota had never seen a lone lioness before. After a few minutes, the lioness lifted her head and looked around. She stared at Pride Rock and turned away. Kokota guessed from her figure that she was very sad. He probably would've scared her away by growling at first, but now he realized she was no harm to the pride.

"Hey!" he called out to her, exiting the bush, "Who goes there?"

The lioness looked up, startled. She saw a brownish gold lion approaching the other side's bank. He looked liked he was hardly in adolescence, yet this might be the end for her. She couldn't outrun him or outfight him in her condition. Not even a headstart could insure escape. Trying to be as nice and presentable as possible she replied, "Hello, young lion. My name is Nala, I used to be in this pride." She hoped he would believe him.

"Nala?" Kokota was taken aback. He became excited. It was his grandmother, a living legend! "Nala! I'm Kokota! I'm Kiara's son." he called out. "Come across the river, everyone will be so happy!" He couldn't believe it. The rest of the pride thought she was dead along with Simba.

"I don't think I can make the swim" she said. "I've been waiting here, gathering my strength for hours. I still don't think I can make it."

Kokota dived into the river and swam across the river to her side. Although most of the other lions couldn't even swim, Kokota enjoyed the water and could swim unlike the others. He reached her side and said, "I'll help you."

"You're a fine swimmer." she said.

Kokota helped her across the river and the two began to walk towards Pride rock. During the journey, they began to share stories. Kokota was wise enough to not mention Simba. It seemed to him as if she was trying to forget him. Maybe it was best this way.

[ OOC: Obviously, we have a new character now. Nala's text color will be #40BF80 ]

[serra20]

Chissa was walking around when she reached the place near river.She saw Kokota,walking with other lioness."Kokota?"she asked as she walked up to him."Who's this lioness?"

[Moka]

"Chissa, this is Nala. Nala, Chissa. Chissa is Vitani's daughter." Kokota introduced them.

"Its very nice to meet you, Chissa." Nala said.

Kiara scrambled up a low cliff to get a clear look at the horizon. It was always so beautiful here. Far to the south, Kiara could see Kokota talking to Chissa. She shook her head. It was too early to see the sunset. She'd have to wait a little while.
Kiara was about to step down when she stopped abruptly. There was someone else with Kokota and Chissa. It was hard to see it in great detail, but from it's figure, Kiara could see that it was female and very old. She was a very light beige, unlike any Kiara had seen in the pride. What could Kokota be doing with this strange lioness?
Kiara got down and made her way toward them.
