Leo smiles to his friend, "Hey there Kry! Long time, no see! Your son is up here!"

[klowd]

" is he.... is he my Dad!?" said Klowd not very sure of what he was seeing.

[King Simba]

"Yeah!" says Leo happily.

Kryken laughs "Hey guys! It's been a while." Kryken runs to Kopa and Leo. "Been keeping the pridelands in good condition. How's it going?" He smiles. "And where is my son Klowd? I want to see him."

[klowd]

Klowd was very nervous he ran towards his father with all his speed and jumped to him licking his face " Dad!!!! u came finally! I miss u a lot!" said klowd with some tears falling down his face caused by the emotion, and nuzzling his father a lot.

"We haven't moved anywhere...as yet. Our pride stayed here over the last few years. Your son as been missing you a lot." Leo smiles.

[unregistered user]

"Wow...Klowd's you've grown a lot." Kryken purred as he held his son tightly in his arms. "It's really been a long time guys. I'm also very sorry about leaving Klowd behind. I had a few problems back at Kumani to solve and had to complete my training back there." Kryken apolgized.

"Hello there everyone." Kenyi smiles and bows lightly.

[King Simba]

"Wow, hey there Kenyi. I'm an adult now." Leo grins.

****************

"It's alright Kry. We've missed you a lot though." Leo nuzzles Kry friendly.

[klowd]

Klowd went with Kiros and the others " Sorry for my character...but i really felt very bad those last days...." said Klowd
" Don't worry mate " said Blizzard smiling and nuzzling Klowd " I understand..If my father were far from me I'm sure I'll do the same" smile Blitz.

[unregistered user]

"I can see that Leo." Kenyi smiles. "Oddly, I haven't aged much since our last talk. I am after all, not that much older than Kryken." Kenyi winked.

"Yeah Dad. I'm just glad to be here with my son, Klowd and won't leave me like that ever again." Kryken hugged his son tightly in his arms, nuzzling Klowd softly. "I still can't believe you've grown so much." Kry smiled.

"May I ask where is Simba, Namabi and Katai? I'd very much like to talk with them." Kenyi smiled.

[King Simba]

"Dad's in the den." Leo smiles.

[klowd]

Klowd smiled being with his father " I think... I have passed the worst days in my life without u Dad" said hugging Kryken stronger.

[klowd]

Klowd went his grandfather and nuzzlled him too.." hey...."

[unregistered user]

"Aww..." Kryken held his son tight. "Me too..."

Kry purrs nuzzling his son.
"You're next in line for king after your grandpa and I." Kry smiled.

"Hey there Klowd." Kenyi smiled at his grandson. "I'm not really a "grandpa" just yet. Heck, I'm just a bit older than your Dad." Kenyi winked.

"I wonder if I should go into the cavern to go see where ol' Namabi, Simba and Katai are doing." Kenyi wondered a for a second and nuzzling his grandson and padded into the cavern looking for someone that might recognize him.

[klowd]

" Ok.. but u are My Dad's father so.. for me u are my grandpa.." said Klowd nuzzling him gently " If u don't like i won't call u grandpa" said Klowd.

[unregistered user]

"You can call me Kenyi, until my fur starts to fall off and when my mane starts to turn all gray." Kenyi winked. "Kry here almost qualifies to be my brother, heh." Kenyi laughed as he padded into the cavern.

Supringly Kryken picks up his son klowd in surprise with his muzzle carrying him onto a rock.
"Long time no see, huh son?" Kry nuzzled his son again. "Would you like to go play or do something together?" Kry smiled.

[klowd]

"ok.. so u are something like my second Dad" Klowd smiled

"Sure Dad.... I would like to stay doing things always with u." Replied Klowd nuzzling Kryken again.

[unregistered user]

"Naw, I'm not your second Dad," Kenyi laughed "If it's really itching you that bad you can call me Dadpa." Kenyi smiled. "I'm not "Grand-pa" just yet, well not in a while anyways."

Kryken rustled up his ungrown mane and picked him up once again on his muzzle and slowly dropped him onto the ground and playfully ran away from him.
"Try and catch up." Kry laughed.

[klowd]

" Dadpa?" klowd laughed " I think I'm gonna call u Kenyi" he laughed

Klowd ran to catch Kryken, and when he was nearer to him he pounced on him bitting his ear playfully.

[unregistered user]

"Ack!!! Heya Klowd!" Kryken playfully tickled his son's sides and ruffled his undergrown mane. "Hehe."

"Well alright then grandson." Kenyi smiled.

[klowd]

" Dad!! stop please" said Klowd laughing, then he rolled over his back and pounced on Kryken trying to pounce him.
Klowd give a nuzzle to his "grandfather" and let him go inside the cave.

Blizzard who was observing klowd said to his father," I'm glad his father came, he seems happy now" smiled.

Namabi smiles when he sees Kenyi, "Hey, Kenyi!" he runs over to him. "I missed you." he gives him a friendly nuzzle.

Jaini looks up and nudges Katai, "Dad! There's some weird lions here!"
Katai sighs and opens his eyes, trying to get them in focus. He then yawns seeing Simba, Namabi and Kenyi together. "Kenyi?" he says curiously getting up.

[klowd]

" he is not weird! he is my Grandad" said klowd puncing on jaini.

"Well I've never seen them before." replies Jaini biting Klowd's ear playfully.

[klowd]

"Ok so now u know him" said klowd rolling over his back and bitting the other Jaini's ear.

[King Simba]

"Right, I know him now." smirks Jaini.

[klowd]

"cool" smile klowd stoped playing and looking to the other lions sitting near Jaini.

[King Simba]

"It's ok, carry on." Katai smiles, "I'm going to see your grandfather." he winks to Klowd.

[King Simba]

"Hey Simba, Namabi and Kenyi. How are you all?" asks Katai smiling.

[klowd]

" yeah... I guess so" smiled blitz

[unregistered user]

"Hey Simba, Namabi and Katai!" Kenyi exclaimed ethusiastically "It's been very long while since we've all spoken," Kenyi laughed "so how's it been since I left?" Kenyi smiled, nuzzling Simba, Namabi and Katai.

"Would you like to go play with your other friends now Klowd?" Kry asked nuzzling his son lovingly "I don't mind" said Kry.

[King Simba]

"Fine thanks. Jaini's been a pain in the back-side though." Katai sighs.

"It's been a while, we've all grown older yet not one year younger." Namabi laughs a little.

"So, how have things been going for you and Kry?" asks Katai.

[unregistered user]

Rianna guarded the cub carefully, it would not do to have it come to harm... yet. Akadi periodically attempted to escape, only to be frightened by three sets of hyena teeth.

The old elephant graveyard had long since been abanadoned by the hyena clan, and it made a perfect place to lay low for awhile. It amused Rianna that she, like her mother Shenzi, would prove her greatness from this foul place.

****

Lira tracked Rianna's scent and prints all the way to pride rock. She feared the worst. Sitting on her haunches she called a greeting....

"Honored lions..." She began.

But Kasa stepped out and growled furiously.

"What have you done with my son?!" He spat. He began to move towards her, prepared to strike if she did not return him.

"Nothing, I swear I know nothing of this! I tracked an exile from my clan here. It must have been her!" She said, fearing for the cub more than for her own life.

"Hyena lies!" Kasa spat out.

She called to Simba, hoping the wise king would understand and believe her where the angry father did not.

"Simba please!"

[klowd]

" Ok Dad, maybe u should go inside and visit Blitz's father, Namabi and the others" said Klowd nuzzling his father.

" yeah I pinned ya" said Blitz, then his face changed and asked " Hey Dad, do u think that Klowd's Dad is going to leave him again?"

[klowd]

" Ty Dad" smiled Blizzard nuzzling Kiros.

[unregistered user]

"Well, it's not neccessary training Kiros, well it is. They're kinda like duties before King or something like that. Don't worry, I promise I won't ever leave my Klowd like that again, I'm not irresponsible." Kry purred holding Klowd tight in his arms.

[klowd]

Klowd was really hapy when he listened that, he nuzzled his father lovingly.

"I do too," Kry nuzzled Kiros "Those were great times, we can still pounce and play in the mud you know. I honestly don't mind a bit," Kry smiled and pounced on Kiros playfully "I mean just because we're adults and a bit grown up than before doesn't mean we can't have a little fun right?" Kry laughed.

[King Simba]

Leo pads up to Blitz, "Can you make me happy?" he grins.

[unregistered user]

"Wait...scratch that Klowd. I will NEVER leave you ever again," Kry hugged kept hugging Klowd "I love you so much Klowd, my son." smiled Kry.

[klowd]

[klowd]

" why uncle? something bad happened to u" asked blizzard wasn't sure if was a joke.
" i really love you a lot Dad.... I want to be always with you... always.." said Klowd to his father.

[King Simba]

"Nope, nothing's happened to me." Leo grins.
"Do you like being pounced on?" Leo laughs to Kiros.

" ohh playful lion!" laughed klowd rolling and puncing on Blizzard.

[King Simba]

Leo laughs and pounces on Kiros again. "Heya mate." he smiles.

[unregistered user]

Kryken grinned and pounced on top of Leo pouncing on him playfully, then he pounced on top of Kiros laughing as he squashes him a little.

"Hey there Namabi and Katai!" Kenyi smiled at them "It's been such a long long time." Kenyi laughed "How've you all been? It's been a bit strenous back at Kumani for some time, but other than that it's all good," Kenyi smiled "so, tell me what's up Namabi and Katai?"

Kryken shifted a bit pounced on Kiros again.

"We moved on for a while, was very exhausting. We was gone for a few months, then we returned back to Pride Rock." Namabi smiles, "We've only been back a few months."

"Yeah, I'm doing fine. My son Jaini, however is a real pain in the back-side." Katai laughs.

**************************
Leo grins under Kiros' and Kryken's weight, "Hey, your squashing me!" he laughs.

[King Simba]

"Sure!" smiles Leo.

[klowd]

Blizzard laughed " poor uncle!!" he said
Klowd laughed too ,then he thought " I think my life starts now" he smiled.

[unregistered user]

"Sounds awesome, let's go!" exclaimed Kry in excitement "Race ya there. Last one to the swamp is a rotten antelope!" Kry laughed making a dash first to the swamp.:p

[klowd]

"I'm coming Dad" said said Blizzard walking near his father " come on Klowd". " yeah"Klowd started walking near Kryken.

[King Simba]

Leo smirks, "Right behind ya!" he jumps in to the swamp.

[klowd]

" Dad is the swamp deep?" asked Blitz

" Don't ask!!" said laughing and puncing on Blizzard, falling both inside the swamp.

[unregistered user]

"Hey!!!" Kry got a big mud and flung it at Kiros playfully and then threw another one at Leo laughing.

[King Simba]

Leo smirks and wipes away the mud from around his eye, ducking the mud being thrown at him.

"My dad absolutely hates this!" Leo laughs.

[klowd]

Klowd and blitz were both playing and rolling on the mud.

[unregistered user]

"I don't know about my Dad," Kry laughed as he rubbed mud onto Leo's mane and pounced on Kiros rubbing mud all over his fur.

[King Simba]

Leo smirks, "I'm sure he'll like it." he splashes more mud on to Kry.

[unregistered user]

"I wonder what they're doing now," Kry rolled on the mud and then rolled on top of Leo and Kiros.

[King Simba]

"Probably just talking. That's all my dad does these days. I think he's getting too old...I dunno." Leo rolls in the mud.

[klowd]

Klowd made a mud's ball and threw to his father" And u like it Dad!?" said laughing

[unregistered user]

"Yeah...mine too," Kry laid on the mud "I think they all are getting too old," Kry sighed "Maybe we should do something for all them to make them...like a feast or something or maybe a special surprise for the Kings! What do you think Leo? I mean...it's a great idea!" Kry exclaimed and looked at Leo and then at Kiros.

*Lightbulb*;)

"Ooh, sounds great. You're good at making ideas." Leo laughs rolling over in the mud once more.

[unregistered user]

"I sure do son," Kry laughed and threw a small one back at his son as he ruffled up his mane.

The conversation between Namabi, Katai, Simba and Kenyi continued Kenyi heard a faint roar "Hmm do you guys hear anything?" Kenyi shook his head and continued with the conversation they were having.

Kry threw a mudball at Kiros and pounced on him playfully, "why are ya calling my dad?" he laughed.

[King Simba]

"My dad's boring...we need to do something to surprise them." Leo grins.

[klowd]

Klowd laughed pouncing on Blitz again. As they were cubs, they were completly covered by mud.

[King Simba]

Namabi looks around the den, seeing that his son isn't there and only seeing Lunara and Leana asleep, "Let's check it out. Leo's gone again."

[unregistered user]

"Oh alright," Kenyi agreed and followed with Simba, Katai and Namabi to the swamp.

"Yeah, so what do you guys think? What should we do for them?" asked Kry "Something...spectacular that they'll have to remember it...come on guys brainstorm here!" Kry shouted.

[King Simba]

Leo looks to Namabi, "Dad, come on! Don't be a scaredy lion all your life!" he laughs splashing Namabi.

[klowd]

Blizzard whispered to Klowd " That Kenyi, who is?"
" Is my Dad's father.... but he don't wants me calling him Grandad" said Klowd smiling.
"Why?" said Blizzard laughing a little
" who knows....." replied Klowd laughing too.

[King Simba]

"....except dad." Leo rolls his eyes.

***********************

Leo thinks, "How about a surprise party?"

[unregistered user]

"Umm...I think me and Namabi will stay out on this one," Kenyi laughed "It's been a while for us since we got and the only way I'm going in is if someone drags me or if Namabi goes in as well." :p

[King Simba]

"I'm not going to." Namabi turns his head away.
"Dad you're boring! Ah well, it's your choice." Leo sighs.

[klowd]

Klowd thought about trowing a mud's ball to Kenyi, but he wasn't sure and didn't do it cos he didn't know him a lot.

Blizzard pounced on Simba " Hi grandad!!"

[unregistered user]

Kenyi pushed Namabi into the mud and ran away whistling to himself, innocently.:p

"oooooo," Kry laughed as he pounced on top of Simba.

[King Simba]

(:lol::die: ;))

Namabi is covered in mud, "Grrr..." he growls back to Kenyi.
Leo splashes him, "Doesn't hurt to have fun once in a while." he laughs.

[klowd]

Klowd pounced on Kenyi " You are very clean!! Grand...Kenyi" he laughed.

[unregistered user]

"Yup, I think I'll be going now. Wouldn't want to ruin my fur." Kenyi laughed walking away "You kids have fun" He smirked at Namabi, Katai and Simba.

[King Simba]

Katai smirks and splashes Namabi, "Remember when I tried wetting you?" he grins.

Namabi rolls his eyes, "Yes and I didn't like it." he sighs.

Leo laughs, "Good one Katai!"

[unregistered user]

"Naw, I'm not so grand Klowd, grandson.":p Kenyi pounced on Namabi and rubbed some mud all over his fur.

[King Simba]

Namabi lifts his paw up and splashes some mud in Kenyi's face, "Gotcha!"

[klowd]

"I know sorry wasn't my intention calling you that" he smiled and went to play with Blizzard who was playing with Simba.

[unregistered user]

"Oh yeah?" Kenyi threw more mud back at Namabi and pounced all over him "Hehe, who's got who now?" Kenyi pinned Namabi down rubbing loads of mud on him.

[King Simba]

"Great..." Namabi says sarcastically, "Am I the brown lion now?" he laughs a bit.

[unregistered user]

"Look like it," Kenyi laughed as he squashed mud on his mane "Now all you need is a cherry," Kenyi picked a cherry and place it on Namabi's head "It looks great!" Kenyi smirked.

[King Simba]

"Great..." he says sarcastically.
Leo laughs, "Hahahahahaha!"

[klowd]

Klowd and Blizzard laughed too.
" U have a great Grandad" whispered Blitz to Klowd
" yeah seems so" he smiled.

[unregistered user]

Kenyi smiled at Klowd and threw a mudball at him playfully.
"Wasn't me!":p

(night mate :hugs: )

[unregistered user]

(Awwww alright KS *Hugglez* Night mate and take care.:hugs:)

"I say a surprise party Leo, while everyone's gone hehe. How does that sound? but you gotta keep it a secret from my dad, yours, Simba and Katai k?" Kryken whispered to Leo quietly.
----
"Hehe, to an extent. Fortunately, if it wasn't for Simba I probably would've never touched mud in my life haha, perhaps Namabi as well." Kenyi laughed as he nuzzled his grandson.

[klowd]

Klowd laughed" hehe i would like to know what u did when my Dad had my age!"

[unregistered user]

"I was a bit more loose with Kryken back then, heh. I let him follow me around here and there, he was good kid but got into troubles sometimes," Kenyi laughed "I don't like being protrayed as the strict and tough lion, even I seem like it because I'm not so much," Kenyi hugged Klowd "and I'm sure that's where he got it from, well picked it up."

[klowd]

Klowd laught and nuzzled kenyi " really I can imagine your son as a cub" laughed klowd looking to his father who was playing with the other lions, as cubs.

[unregistered user]

"You mean your Dad," Kenyi winked "It's nice though hehe." Kenyi rubbed Klowd's head, smiling.

[klowd]

" Yeah.. my Dad..." he said looking at him " I really missed him all this time..." said changing his face's expression. " I want to stay now always with Dad and ya"

[unregistered user]

Kasa faced Simba. "Do you truly believe she had nothing to do with this. I find that difficult to even imagine." Kasa said angrily.

Lira bowed low, her paws reaching out in a gesture of submission.

"Noble lords... my kind are not like this, not anymore. I had nothing to do with it, but if you do not believe me, I offer my life. Do to me as you see fit." Lira said respectfully.

[unregistered user]

Kryken snuck behind Klowd and grabbed ahold of his waist and lifted him up, holding onto him tight.
"How's my Klowd?" Kry smiled, nuzzling him.

[klowd]

(you mean Kryken? )

" heya Dad" smiled Klowd " I'm good, just talking a little with Kenyi" said Klowd nuzzling his father lovingly

[unregistered user]

(Ack!! 3rd time:gasp::lol::lol: Don't tell KS that I made another mistake:lol:It'll be our little secret.:evilgrin::p)

"We're gonna play a surprise later for your grandpa and the other old kings, and your gonna help us." Kryken whispered to his son.

(and yea that was Kry.:p)

[klowd]

( ok hehe :evilgrin: :ayecapn: ;) )

" oh! yeah I want to help!, what are we going to do?" replied klowd to his father.

[unregistered user]

"Well...first we're gonna get you cleaned up," Kry laughed "and then we'll talk about it with Kiros and Leo after dinner," Kry smiled at licked his son's mane "Tonight we're having antelope and impala. How does that sound son?" Kryken smiled.

[klowd]

" Great! Dad" smiled Klowd " And the dinner sounds better" klowd laughed " Are we going to hunt them!?" he asked lying down on his back allowing his father to lick him.

[unregistered user]

"Why don't we wait until Kiros or Leo have something to say about it." Kry kept Klowd close in his arms, rubbing more mud on his head laughing "then we'll decide whether to wash up or not hehe." Kry smirked.

[unregistered user]

"Nope...sorry we haven't heard from him. Should we send out a rescue team or should we look for him ourselves?" asks Kenyi "He might be in trouble and need." Kenyi said worriedly.

[unregistered user]

"Well the faster we start searching, the faster we'll find him and don't have to worry much instead of waiting for a response. I mean he could be in danger this very moment." Kenyi said.

[klowd]

"What happen Grandad?" asked Blitz to Simba

[klowd]

" Oh....poor cub..." said Blizzard worried

" Ok Dad" Klowd laughed to Kryken " Look there, the others seems worried about something"

[unregistered user]

"Let's go see..." Kryken gently grabbed Klowd into his muzzle padding over to his father and Simba as he plopped Klowd back down onto the mud "What's going on over here?" asks Kry.

[klowd]

" A cub has been kidnapped" said Blizzard
" who!?" asked Klowd worried too

[unregistered user]

"A cub? What's this all about Dad? Simba?" Kry asks confused and worried.

"Good idea!" Leo agrees with Kry's idea.

[King Simba]

Leo gets out of the mud, "Should we look for him or not?"

[unregistered user]

"I'd say we go with operation search and rescue for this cub. The more time we stall(sp?) the less chances we'll get of ever finding that cub, I suggest we continue." Kenyi suggested.

"I agree with my father. We should split into 2-3 searching teams and figure out and find clues as to where they were last at or seen." Kry agreed padding up.

[klowd]

" We want to come too" said Klowd
" Yes, we want to help" said Blizzard too.

[unregistered user]

"No son," Kryken shook his head "Stay in the cavern in the meantime, we'll right back. A cub has gone missing and we need to find him, and I can't afford to lose you Klowd." Kry nuzzled his son.

(Night guys. I'm going to bed.)

[klowd]

" But Dad!" I'll be withu all the time, nothing will happen to me!" said Klowd to his father.

[klowd]

( g'night mate :hugs: )

[King Simba]

"Mind if I come too? My dad will come and help." Leo asks.
Namabi stretches and yawns getting out of the mud.

[King Simba]

"C'mon Dad, we need your help." Leo sighs.
"I said I was coming didn't I?" Namabi shakes his head and sighs.

[King Simba]

"I guess so." Leo replies.

(Btw, what are we gonna do whilst Kenyi's in bed. :eww: )

[klowd]

" Come on Dad!, why we can't come?" said blizzard

[King Simba]

(On Thursday Namabi and his Pride can leave for two weeks so should we just RP that for now? ;))

[klowd]

( What do u mean? )

[King Simba]

(I mean when I go on Thursday, Namabi, Leo etc. can leave for two weeks then return.)

[klowd]

( ah ok, as u wish mate ;) )

[klowd]

" But Dad! me and klowd will be with u and Kryken all the time, come on!" said Blitz to his father.

(I'll do it either way then. ;))
Namabi thinks of something that has to be done far and away from the Pridelands, it comes into his mind. "Sorry guys but time for us to leave is on Thursday, I hope to return though."

Leo pauses, "What!!!? I don't wanna leave!"

[King Simba]

"Why does he have to leave though? What are you and the pride leaving for?" asks Leo concerned.

"Something's come in to mind, I've gotta set things right." Namabi sighs.

[klowd]

" No Dad..." he said walking near Klowd annoyed.

[King Simba]

Leo doesn't know what to do, "Leo, I suggest you come with me and the pride."

[klowd]

" Dad... I have never been in a hard trouble.. and I'm not going to be in one now..." said Blitz

[King Simba]

Leo doesn't know what to do, "Who's going Dad?" he asks.
"All of us." Namabi replies.

[klowd]

" But Dad!, I'm worried too about the kidnapped cub!, and we want to help!" insisted Blitz

[unregistered user]

A lioness called Miliski and a lion called Novu walked over. "Have you seen our daughter, Amber. she went of with Kasa's cub." Miliski asked. "Mummy, will Amber be okay?" asked Black Gem, Amber's twin.

[klowd]

" No I didn't " said Klowd to the new lions with a sad expression caused by his father decision.

[unregistered user]

"Wow...first a cub and now Namabi and Leo are temporarily leaving? Maybe I should take another vacation back at Kumani," Kenyi thinks to himself.

"Wait...so let me get this straight. Namabi and his pride are temporarily leaving the pridelands, while me and Simba are the only ones left to go find the missing cub?" Kryken said with a confused expression "Why so soon? We've only just arrived here a day ago...I can't leave my Klowd again but we need to have that missing cub before something terrible happens. I suggest that we "all" go find the cub first before everyone leaves," Kryken looked at Namabi, Leo, his dad and Simba "There's things still to be done..." Kryken sighed as he padded away from the swamp.

[klowd]

" Dad, where are u going?" said Klowd to his father

[unregistered user]

"I'm not sure, I don't even know what's going on exactly but we do have a cub to save and I don't think that should easily be put aside." Kryken nuzzled his son.

[klowd]

" No he souldn't" said Klowd nuzzling his father " We have to find him."

[unregistered user]

"No no son..."we" aren't going to find him "we" as in Namabi, Katai, Simba and I are going to find him..."you" are going to stay at Pride Rock along with the other lions and lionesses." Kryken nodded.

[klowd]

" Dad....please...I want to go everywere with you now, now that we are together..." Klowd nuzzled his father.

[King Simba]

Leo looks at Simba, "I'll have to think about it."

Namabi looks at Kry, "No, no, no. We're not leaving now, we're leaving in a few days. We all hope to return and we all are going to look for the missing cub."

[unregistered user]

"Ah alright then. That clears up the mess in my mind, shall we go looking for him now? or should we wait to get a signal from Simba and the others?" Kryken asks "Son...I'm only doing this for your safety. What if something were to happen to you? I would be to blame and could never forgive myself if anything ever happened to you. I know we'll always be together." Kryken hugs his son.

"We'll go now if you want, better done quicker." replies Namabi.

[klowd]

" But Dad..." he said with his head down, without knowing what to say.
" My Dad doesn't want me to go neither" said Blizzard to Klowd.

[unregistered user]

"What about you Namabi? Or should I venture out myself?" asks Kryken.

"I'll go with you son, anybody else coming?" Kenyi asks "The quicker we get this done and over with the quicker we can finally rest."

[King Simba]

"I'll go...." says Namabi.
"Count me in too." Leo smiles.

[unregistered user]

"Where should we look first?" Kryken questioned "I suggested earlier that we split into 2-3 teams, but I'm not sure how that'll work. Where to start?"

[klowd]

Klowd and Blizzard waited attentively for namabi's answer to Leo.

[klowd]

(ahhh sorry I forget leo is an adult now >< :lol: )

"How about you and Kenyi go in to a team? And me and Leo go in to a team." Namabi suggests, "or do you want it another way?" asks Namabi.

[unregistered user]

"It doesn't matter to me," Kenyi said.

"Right then, I'll go with Leo," Kryken nodded and padded off with Leo in the search.

"Okay..."

[King Simba]

"Fine by me." Namabi pads off with Kenyi.
Leo pads off with Kry.

[klowd]

Klowd saw his father moving away,being really sad.
" Come on let's go inside the den" said Blizzard.
" yes.. let's go..." replied Klowd
" We have to think about something" whispered Blitz to his friend
" Yeah we better talk about it inside" whispered Klowd back seeing that there was other lions there.

[unregistered user]

"Hey why don't we check out that forest over there?" Kryken pointed to Leo the forest up ahead.

[klowd]

( Is someone controlling Klowd and Blizzard in the den?:confused: )

"Sounds good to me." Leo smiles at Kry's suggestion.

[unregistered user]

"Hmm..." Kryken makes his way through the closed trees and thick bushes "Ack! I hate this bushes, they're so close to together."

[King Simba]

"I know, it's far too hard to get all the way through them. Takes you ages." says Leo knocking away the branches.

[klowd]

(ok nobody then xD )

Klowd and Blizzard arrived to the den.
"Should we go to the water hole to clean our bodies?" asked Blitz
"uhm...well ok..." said Klowd without being sure. " But u know what is going to happen if our Dads see us." said Klowd concerned.
"Don't worry I know a secret way to the wather hole " smiled Blitz.
" Ah ok then, let's go" said Klowd
Both lions padded towards the water hole.

[klowd]

Klowd said " No ty... we have thought about going to the water hole"
Blizzard nodded.

Simba goes searching for the cub on his own since the others have gone off.
Katai sees Simba walking off, "Simba, wait up!" he runs out of the den over to him.

[unregistered user]

Kryken knocks the bushes down "It's just a bit itchy and I'm a bit allergic to some bushes," Kryken sneezes "I think I'm gonna go back Leo," Kryken sneezes again.

[King Simba]

"I'll join up with Kenyi and Dad then." says Leo.

Rianna glowered over little Akadi, wanting to bad to tear him apart. But she could not, first Lira must be implicated.

The elephant graveyard was empty now save for Rianna and the cub. Her two rogue companions seemingly deserting her. But that made no difference, they had served their purpose. Once Lira had been implicated in the kidnapping, Rianna could "arrange" for Simba to find the cub's freshly killed body. That would certainly finish off Lira's rule. She cackled with madness, not realizing a search party was already looking for her...

****

Kasa settled down, allowing calm and wisdom to return to him. "Let your anger pass, do not let it control your destiny." The ghost-shaman had told him once. He looked to Simba and relaxed.

"Perhaps you are right. I am old and my sense of smell isn't what it used to be. I will trust your judgement."

Then he looked at Lira...

"YOU on the other hand, are the ruler of your kind. You have a responsibility to help find Akadi, and deal punishment to those who took him." He said sternly, with a hint of threat in the air.

Lira merely nodded in agreement, feeling quite sad. She had played with lion cubs as a pup, and the thought of a cub in the claws of Rianna made her shudder with disgust.

[klowd]

Klowd and Blizzard started running there without waiting any answer.

[unregistered user]

"No no, it's good. I think I'm better it's just the pollen or something back there." Kryken coughed as he walked beside Leo.

[King Simba]

"Do you want me to do the job for you?" asks Leo.

[klowd]

The two cubs arrived to the water hole and jumped in, after play a little Klowd said " I'm worried about the kidnapped cub, I would like to do something to help..."
" yeah.. me too..." said Blizzard.
" Hey, what about if we search for him too?!you and me as a team like our fathers" said Klowd wasn't sure about what he said.
" Oh sounds good! yeah let's go!"
Klowd and Blitz went out the water hole without any mud rest, and started running inside the forest near the water hole.

" Dad! please!, let me to help!"said to Kiros.
Klowd continued running inside the forest cos he wanted to help, and seems like kiros hadn't seen him.

"Sure." Simba smiles to Katai, padding off in the direction of the swamp. He goes past the swamp and looks to the Outlands. "Do you think the cub is out there?" he asks Katai.
Katai looks at Simba, "It's well worth a look." he replies.

[King Simba]

Katai follows Simba, "Do you think it'll be safe?" he asks.

[klowd]

" Dad....u are damaging me...." lied Blizzard , he wanted to go with Klowd .
" I have never been here before" Klowd thought to hiself a little bit scared.

[King Simba]

"Yeah, I guess so. Shall I try to find the cub by scent too?" he asks Simba.

[unregistered user]

Kryken rushes quickly off into the far desert of the outlands past Simba and Katai.

[King Simba]

Leo follows, "Any ideas in where to look?" asks Leo.

[klowd]

Klowd could't find an exit of the forest so he started to run being very nervous, some tears fel down is face.

[unregistered user]

"How did you two ever come across the idea the missing cub might be here?"

[King Simba]

(Is it ok if I bring another character in? His name's Marasna. ;))

Marasna saw Klowd in loads of trouble and decides to take him back home.

Marasna is a very wise and old lion, he ran up to Klowd, making sure not to scare him.

Klowd started to cry and he didn't know what to do , it was getting darker," I'm an idiot" he thought to hiself shouting to his father without really waiting for an answer.

[unregistered user]

(I'm sorry scratch what I said)

"No, that's alright Leo. I can do my job, I'm not helpless you know." Kryken walked ahead "Let's just continue." Kenyi continued on.

EDIT: I mistakened Katai for Leo.

[King Simba]

"Alright..." says Leo.

Marasna looks down on the small cub,"It's ok kid, I'm here to help you." he smiles down politely to the cub.

(Picture of Marasna here (http://fanart.lionking.org/Artists/Mirri/TradeNamabi001.jpg).)

[klowd]

( who is Marasna?)

"Wh..who are you?" Klowd asked

"I suspect the outlands...but I'm not 100% sure." replies Leo sniffing for the scent on an hyena.

[klowd]

( ok srry ^^')

" Yeas I am..." said Klowd with his head down crying.

[King Simba]

(That's ok. =))

"No need to cry, I know my way around here. Where abouts do you live? I can return you home safely." Marasna smiles to Klowd.

[klowd]

" I live in the pride rock..." said Klowd he stopped crying " But.. i don't know how I can return there" he said.

(btw great pic ;) )

[King Simba]

"You live at the big pointy rock? That's great, I've always wanted to visit there." Marasna smiles to Klowd, "Jump on my back, I'll take you home."

(Mirri did that pic for me in an art trade. :cheese: )

[klowd]

" Ok..." said Klowd jumping on the "stranger" back" thank you " he said without being very sure.

( cool :) )

"Alright then let's go." Kryken makes a dash for the outlands as he walks onto the arid and dry soil. "Hmm, unfortunately for us the outlands are much more wide and open space than the pridelands." Kry continued.

[King Simba]

"Yeah...which is kind of confusing." replies Leo still sniffing the air.

"So tell me, how did you get lost in the first place?" asks Marasna.

[klowd]

Klowd thought that that lion could be the kidnapper so he lied being scared "I...I like to see the trees" .

[King Simba]

"Really?" Marasna raises his eyebrowns and nods his head smiling.
"You'll be home soon, shouldn't take that long." Marasna smiles.

[klowd]

" Ty... sir " the lion seem not to be the kidnapper so he said " I was in the forest looking for the lost cub..."

[King Simba]

"So that's what you were doing?" Marasna laughs, "Doing something helpful towards the other lions, eh?"

[klowd]

" Yes sir..." he said yawning, he felt hiself very tired, and suddenly he fell asleep on Marasna bacK.

( I'm going to sleep cya mates :hugs: )

[King Simba]

(Night, Klowd. :hugs: =))

Marasna smiles at the sleeping cub and pads a bit faster to get to pride rock a lot quicker.

[unregistered user]

(:hugs:night Klowd and take care mate.)

[unregistered user]

"Do you smell anything nearby Leo?" Kryken checked signs for trails and sniffed a little "The scent is pretty faint."

[King Simba]

"Can't smell the bad smell of hyena's for sure." replies Leo.

[unregistered user]

"Hmm...then let's continue on..." Kryken continued on in the heat of the afternoon "Mm...what about over there?" Kry points to a cavern in the distance.

[King Simba]

"Let's have a look then." Leo smiles and runs over to the cavern waiting for Kry.

(Going to bed now, I have school tomorrow and it's very late here. ;))

[unregistered user]

(Ah okay KS.:p take care KS.:hugs::))

"Hey wait up!" Kry ran over to Leo and looked inside "Do you think the cub might be in here?" Kry asks.

[King Simba]

"Hopefully, doesn't hurt to look." says Leo.

[unregistered user]

"Hmm, let's go check it out," Kry stepped into the dark cavern, hearing the sound of water dripping as he looked at Leo and signaled him to come in.

[unregistered user]

OFF: Anyone who wants to can 'find' Rianna the hyena in the elephant graveyard.

Kasa followed Simba, trusting in the wise king's judgement. He would find his son, the one who would be king of his old homeland someday.

Lira followed some distance behind, her head hung low in shame. How could this happen? She thought. But she knew what she must do. Rianna must be exiled. She had tried to help the bitter daughter of Shenzi let go of her hate, but it was of no use. She showed her own cowardice in kidnapping a cub rather than challenging an adult. Lira sniffed the air, occasionally catching traces of Rianna's scent.

Klowd woke uo?p inside the den, he saw Marasna and nuzzled him " Ty for saving me..." he said.

[unregistered user]

"Not much...just a few antelope bones is all...come on Leo. There's nothing here." Kryken sighed as he left the empty cave.

[klowd]

Blitz woke up near his father, seeing that he wasn't awake he went near Klowd " Hey mate how are u?"
" Fine.... I get lost inside the forest..." he said sadly ? "i hope my Dad to doesn't know about it..." Klowd said.
" Don't worry I'm not going to say him anything" Blizzard smiled." And I hopw my father to doesn't do neither." Blitz said looking at kiros.

[King Simba]

"Should we check the elephant graveyard?" Simba smiles to Katai, "I went there when I was a cub..."
"I guess so...never been there myself." replies Katai.

[klowd]

Klowd sighed " Don't worry.." he said." i don't know what my Dad is going to think about me..." he said sadly

[King Simba]

"I shouldn't even be here. Is your dad the king?" Marasna asks.

[klowd]

" No he isn't, Simba is the king here, but my grandad is the king of Kumani pridelands." said Klowd

Simba smiles to Katai, padding into the elephant graveyard. He looks around; the graveyard is fairly big...
Marasna steps back, unsure, "I found the cub in the forest, he said he was lost. I returned him home here."

*******************

"Creapy place but somewhat fascinating." Katai grins to Simba, "I bet you enjoyed it here when you was a cub."

"That's sad..." Kiros sighs, "I know he did." Kiros nuzzles Blizzard, "He should be allowed to stay, I see no reason why not... we shall ask Simba when he returns."

"Yeah, it was fun, some nasty hyenas tried to hurt me and Nala though..." Simba growls, "I think those hyenas are gone now though..."
"When I was a cub, some hyena's chased me too, I bopped them over the head." Katai laughs.

Mufasa pads up to them having heard his name called. "Morning, son." Mufasa grins to Simba, "How are you?"

"I'm fine..." Simba nuzzles Mufasa, "How about you?"

"Great..." Mufasa nuzzles Simba back lovingly. "Chasing the mangy poachers?" Mufasa laughs a little, imitating Zazu.

"Heh, yeah, looking for a missing cub..." Simba smiles back, "The poor thing it seems has been taken by hyenas..."

Simba notices some moving and creeps behind a skeleton, "Quick, I think someone's here..." Simba whispers to Katai and Mufasa. Mufasa pads up behind Simba quietly.
Katai pauses and pads up behind Mufasa and Simba.

[klowd]

( ok ;) That's cool mate)

" Sure Dad!" said Blitz poucing on Kiros
" Wanna play?" asked Klowd to the new lion.
