[Open] Mufasa Era

[Maleficent]

"Lion. That's a nice name meaning," Taka said, looking jealous before he frowned and said, "Did you ever know Sarabi's father?"

Taka suddenly looked down at the ground and replied bitterly, "No, it was because I was worth dirt to him. He didn't need a second son. Mufasa was already going to be king."

[TheLionQueen]

"Don't worry my furry friend. One day you will show you're father what you really are. We all are something in this great circle of life." Levon replied putting one of his large paws on Taka's back gently. "Sarabi's father was a jerk. I'm happy he left." Levon stated taking his paw from Taka's back.

[Maleficent]

"Yes, but if I'm never allowed the chance to prove myself, then how will my father know I am anything but dirt?" Taka frowned.

From a distance, Uru was returning with a young cub by her side. Taka's eyes followed them with interest.

[TheLionQueen]

"Don't worry Taka. Just tell him you are more than what you are and show him up." Levon said. "You might want to practice your skills though. One day you can be a king like your brother if you get stronger and better at well being a lion. I'm sure you can do it." Levon assured. Sarabi tackled Mufasa playfully and then jumped off before sitting on the ground, "Pinned ya!" She bragged.

[Maleficent]

"How can I tell him that when he never listens to me?" Taka said. "It's always 'Mufasa this' or 'Mufasa that'. When it comes to strength and skills, well, let's just say Mufasa will always be better than I am."

Uru approached the group and said, "Hello Levon, hello Taka. This is Zira. She's going to be part of our pride. She doesn't have any parents. Could you show her about and get to know her?"

[TheLionQueen]

"Yes my queen." Levon said bowing his head to Uru and then he looked at Zira, "Hello. I'm Levon." He said. He looked back at Taka for a moment, "I could always show you some new things. You could be as strong as Mufasa could ever be if you practice and keep at it." He replied. "Mufasa is not the only one who had a father." Levon said.

[Maleficent]

"Thank you," Uru said before going over to Mufasa and Sarabi. "How are you two?"

Zira gave Levon an interested look and said, "I'm Zira. Uru doesn't think I can take care of myself, but I certainly can." She stuck her nose in the air.

Taka smiled at the young cub's antics and replied to Levon, "I suppose. What kinds of things did you have in mind?"

[TheLionQueen]

"Easy stuff for now Taka, pouncing, and some easy fighting skills." Levon replied. He looked at Zira, "Well I'm sure you can." He said sarcastically.

Sarabi looked up at Uru, "Hi!" She said. "I'm amazing how are you today Uru?" She asked.

[Maleficent]

"Alright," Taka agreed. "Do you know much about fighting?"

Zira bared her teeth at Levon and asked, "You don't believe me? Let's fight!"

Uru smiled at Sarabi and said, "Just fine, thank you. What about yourself?"

[TheLionQueen]

"I'm good Uru. Mufasa and I were just playing tag." Sarabi said smiling wide.
Levon looked at Zira, "I don't wanna fight you. I'll kill you." Levon replied. "Taka I know tons about fighting." Levon bragged to Taka.
