It seemed so surreal. Two deaths in one day. Especially those of the King and the Prince of the Pridelands. All Sarafina could do was try to place a comforting paw on her cub's shoulder, trying to stop her from crying so hysterically. She glanced at her best friend, Sarabi, who had worn the same expression for minutes now. Sarafina had to muster up all the strength she had not to start crying too.
Her attentions turned to the masses of hyena's that began swamping Pride Rock, they didn't seem to care. They were laughing to themselves and making themselves comfortable. She wondered how Scar could let such things happen, his brother and niece had just died. Not one of the lionesses or cubs wore a smile, they were all in shock.
A distance away from the others, a group of cubs sat. A few were shedding a tear, but Chumvi had stopped crying. The dark coloured cub managed to catch his friend Tama's glance towards him. They were both devastated. Simba was one of them, a friend they never wanted to lose. After a few moments, Chumvi turned around and acknowledged his sister Kula.
"A-Are you ok?", he managed to mumble out, his words choked with tears that had yet to come.
Tama however, desperately wanted to go over and comfort Nala. She didn't know whether she'd be helping though, she'd end up crying as well. Taking cautious steps, she padded over to her. Bumping her head against hers affectionately. Sarafina looked at Tama with a solemn but thankful gaze.
"Tama...please watch Nala for me", as much as she didn't want to leave her daughter in her time of mourning, she had to check on Sarabi. The cub nodded, and then looked back at Nala, waiting for her to say something or do something. Tama had never experienced anything like this before. She didn't know what to do.
