[Closed] The Circle of Life Continues

OOC: Nice first post, Amyz. Now, I think I'll move ahead just a bit so we can get on with the story.

Some time had passed and Bianca had become a healthy and energetic cub. Kopa tried his best to keep an eye on her, remembering that he used to be this way himself when he was her age. He looked at his parents. They had weakened, and would pass on very soon. While they were still here, he did his best to spend time with him. "Are you comfortable?" he asked them.

OCC: Thanks Is there any chance I can add an OC? To be Jerba's sister? Maybe you could slot her into the story somehow? If not don't worry

Time also passed in Vitani's land. Jerba had become a lively cub and Vitani also kept her eye on him. His training will start fairly soon" she thought. Vitani also heard that Simba and Nala were growing weaker and would soon die. She grinned at the thought of the pride mourning there death.

OOC: If you think you can do it and fit her into the story, that's fine with me.

As Kopa watched Bianca play, he worried. He had heard rumors of an aggressive pride known as the Outlander pride, and he didn't want to take chances, not with his elderly parents, and certainly not with his young daughter. "Oh Bianca, I promise that I will keep you safe from harm. May the great kings forsake me if I don't," he said.

OOC: Back

Sheba came up behind Kopa. "Don't worry," She told him, nuzzling his mane, "I'm sure she'll be okay. You'll do a great job." Sheba knew Kopa would still be wary, but felt the need to calm his worries.

Kopa turned to his mate. "I know, but I just don't want to lose her. I mean, my parents got themselves into many life-threatening situations, and so did I. I don't want Bianca to do the same," he replied.

Sheba chuckled, "Cubs will be cubs, Kopa. If Bianca is anything like you, there's nothing we can do to stop her from exploring." She remembered Kopa as a cub and chuckled again thinking of his 'adventures'.

Kopa noticed Sheba's chuckle and looked back at her. "If I recall correctly, you were involved in more than a few of my misadventures once you moved to Pride Rock," he said, remembering the fun of their cubhood.

Sheba couldn't help but laugh recalling all the things they did in their childhood that gave their parents heart attacks "Of course I was! Let's just hope that Bianca doesn't do anything THAT dangerous." Sheba had some trouble counting all the times she put herself in danger, but such is life in the Pride lands.

"Well, so far, she hasn't shown herself willing to take much risk, but I guess we'll see as she gets older," Kopa answered. It was then that he had an idea. "You know, perhaps I should give her a guard, someone that can watch over her when she goes out to play and report to us if she misbehaves," he suggested to Sheba.

"Good idea." Sheba replied, "A guard would be perfect." She smiled, "Just make sure they don't go overboard. We can't keep her from having fun."
