Princess Kairia, was engrossed as she listened to her grandfather the former king Simba, as he told her a story of one of the adventures he had with her grandmother when he was a cub.
"There Grandma and I were cornered によって the hyenas they were moving in for the kill. I did the only thing I could think of, I roared at them." Kairia looked at her grandfather impressed and asked him
"Wow Grandpa did that scare them off?"
Simba laughed heartily at his granddaughter and 発言しました "No, Dear One I'm afraid it didn't."
Kairia asked confused "But Grandpa if it didn't work then how did あなた and Grandma get away?"
Simba laid down 次 to Kairia and replied "Well, after my roar didn't scare them off I truly thought me and grandma were done for then my father came to our rescue. It was very scary but also exciting, Dad made those hyenas run to the ends of the earth!"
Kairia laughed and 発言しました "Grandpa that was a great story,can あなた tell me another one?" Just as Simba was getting ready to tell his granddaughter another story Kiara his daughter and reigning クイーン of the pride lands found them sitting on the summit of Pride Rock,
"Kairia,Father there あなた two are, I've been looking every where for あなた both, What have あなた two been doing here all morning?"
Kiara asked them as she laid down 次 to her father. "Grandfather has been telling me the coolest stories about when he and Grandma were my age, Oh mother they are so cool, あなた should ask he has had some really crazy adventures!"
Kiara turned towards her father she gave him a angry through subtle look. She then 発言しました to him angrily "Yes I should ask him もっと見る about that, due continue Father"
Simba 発言しました backtracking "Um,that is enough stories for one morning Dear One, why don't あなた go off and play now." Kairia 発言しました disappointed "But Grandpa I really want to stay here with あなた and listen to もっと見る of your stories."
Kiara stood up and replied
"You have spent もっと見る than enough time with your grandfather this morning Kairia, now why don't あなた go off and visit Aunt Vitani and Cousin Vitana ,they are laying on the sunbathing rocks on the south side of Pride Rock, your grandmother is there too, あなた mind her for the rest of the day. I need to go and scout the perimeter of the pride lands."
Kairia's ears perked up in excitement and asked "Mom can I come too?"
Kiara bent down and replied "No Kairia it's too dangerous, あなた run along now all right, we'll spend もっと見る time together soon I promise." Kiara swiped her daughter up with her right paw and hugged her tight to her chest, and licked her. She gave her father a small nuzzle and said
"Well I need to get going, Daddy why don't あなた go and take a nap あなた look exhausted, Kairia あなた mind your grandmother."
Kairia sighed and 発言しました "Yes, Mother I will I promise." The young クイーン smiled and gracefully scaled down off the summit of Pride Rock.
Kairia asked her grandfather "Grandpa why won't Mom let me go with her, I never get to go anywhere." Simba laughed and 発言しました "You sound just like me when I was your age."
Kairia looked at her grandfather and 発言しました "I bet great-great grandfather let あなた do whatever あなた wanted and go where ever あなた wanted to go."
Simba laughed once again that 日 at his granddaughter and replied "No he was very strict and hardly let me go anywhere without Zazu.
Kairia looked at Simba and asked " Really why was he like that ?"
"Well あなた see Dear One, when I was prince I was just like you, I wanted to go and do everything my father did, but I realized that the things that sound really fun and exciting are usually the most dangerous."
Kairia looked at her grandfather and replied "I don't understand, Grandfather"
Simba nuzzled Kairia and 発言しました "You will one 日 Dear One あなた will." Kairia sighed then 発言しました "I hope so Grandpa."
Simba laughed and 発言しました "I promise あなた あなた will Kairia, now let's get あなた to the sunbathing rocks, I'm sure everyone is waiting for you.
Kairia asked "Grandpa will あなた tell me a story tonight before I go to sleep?"
Simba nuzzled his granddaughter slowly and replied "We'll see Kiaria." They finally had made it to she south sunbathing rocks Simba gave Kairia a slight nudge with his nose and 発言しました "Go on now have a good time with Vitana. Say hello to your Granmother for me. I'll see あなた tonight."
Kairia ran back to her grandfather nuzzled him and 発言しました "Okay, Grandpa see あなた tonight." Simba watched her clamber down the large rocks towards the south sunbathing ones he shouted after her "You be careful today あなた hear me Dear One!"
Kairia shouted back "Yes Grandfather I will!"
Kairia finally made it to the sunbathing rocks she ran towards her cousin and best friend Vitana who was being bathed によって her mother Kairia's Aunt Vitani,
"Hi Vitana" Vitana looked up at her and 発言しました "Hey, Kairia."
Kairia whispered in her ear "Come on Grandpa just told me about this really amazing place."
Annoyed Vitana 発言しました "Kairia I'm kind of in the middle of a bath." Nala the former クイーン of the pride lands and
Kairia's grandmother 発言しました "Speaking of baths its time for yours, dear" With that Nala grabbed Kairia によって scruff of her neck and started bathing her. Kairia struggled out of her grandmother's grip
"Grandma, grandma stop your getting me all wet あなた know how much I hate getting wet!"
Nala smiled and released her. Kairia shook off the excess saliva on her and replied "Okay, Okay, I"m all clean can we get going ".
Vitana 発言しました "So were are we going, it better not someplace be stupid." Kairia replied "No it's really awesome."
Nala asked "So were is this really awesome place?" Kairia 発言しました "Oh, um around Rafiki's Tree."
Vitana chimed in "Rafiki's 木, ツリー what's so great about Rafiki's Tree?" Kairia bent down and whispered in Vitana's ear
"I'll 表示する あなた why when we get there." The notion dawned on Vitana and playing along she whispered back "Oh right"
Turing around to face her mother she asked "Um, mom can I go with Kairia?"
Vitani stared at her daughter for a 秒 then she looked at Nala and asked "Hmm what do あなた think Nala?"
Nala looked at the two cubs and 発言しました " Well,...
Kairia and Viatana smiled extra sweetly and 発言しました "Please!"
Nala relented and replied “It's fine with me."
Kairia and Vitana rejoiced happily jumping up and down. "Yeah, all right!" they 発言しました in unison.
As they were leaving Nala 発言しました "As long as Zazu escorts you." Kairia and Vitana were crestfallen.
Vitana 発言しました "Kairia you've got to do something we can't have that bossy dodo around"
Kairia nodded and 発言しました " Your right I'm going to see if I can get Grandma to change her mind, wait here all right?"
Vitana 発言しました "Okay, hurry up Kairia ." Kairia ran back to her grandmother and 発言しました "No Grandma not Zazu, Why can't Vitana and me go によって ourselves?." Nala who was washing her paws 発言しました "I'm sorry but あなた either let Zazu escort あなた または あなた stay here."
Kairia sulked and 発言しました "All right" She ran back to Vitana and 発言しました "No go, but don't worry I've got a plan."
Vitana asked "So were we are really going?" Kairia whispered "The old 象 graveyard." Vitana's eyes grew wide with excitement and she 発言しました loudly "Woah, cool!"
"S shh, Zazu will hear you." Kairia whispered Vitana replied "Right so how are gonna ditch the Dodo?"
The two cubs then began whispering in the tall 草 about their plan to loose their pesky and annoying escort.
Zazu, landed down in front of them and asked rather hotly "Why haven't あなた two picked up the pace, it is nearly midday and we aren't even half way to the 木, ツリー yet, what is the problem?"
Kairia whispered in Vitana ear "Let Operation Ditch the Dodo commence." Vitana nodded slightly.
Kairia then 発言しました slyly to Zazu, "Zazu we're thirsty I mean we've been walking for at least three hours, why don't あなた go the watering hole and get us some water, that way we'll get to Rafiki's 木, ツリー faster".
Zazu looked at her with scruity and said
"Oh no あなた don't your grandparents pulled a similar trick on me before and I will not fall for it a 秒 time I will not be swayed form course, besides there is a small pond near the 木, ツリー あなた can both have a drink when we get there. Now come on あなた two let's get moving!" Zazu 発言しました with crazy passion.
Kairia stayed where she was and replied slyly " All right we'll go but I would hate to tell Grandmother and Mother that あなた disobeyed a direct order form the princess. I don't think they'll like that at all. What do あなた think Vitana, do あなた think they'll like it ?"
Vitana shook her head and replied " No they won't they'll probably strip away your majordomo position, and kick あなた out of Pride Rock."
Zazu who was in mid take off stopped and went back down to the two cubs he replied smugly "In case あなた two didn't know I have been the majordomo to this royal family since Kairia's grandfather was a cub! They would never banish me I am far too important!"
Kairia replied coolly"I doubt that Zazu because I heard Mom and Dad talking yesterday and Mom was saying how frustrated she was because she couldn't catch anything for ディナー the 日 before, she 発言しました she was so mad she might just 火災, 火 you."
Zazu looked もっと見る closely at Kairia and finally his expression faltered and Kairia knew was going to give in to her request.
He sighed and 発言しました "Oh all right I'll go and get あなた two some water but its not because I believe your ridiculous lie I just don't want あなた two to get dehydrated. Stay right here I'll be back in a flash" Zazu then took off for the watering hole. As soon as Zazu was out of sight
Kairia turned to Vitana and 発言しました "Come on let's go." Vitatna replied "Yeah let's get out of here!"
The two cubs then ran all the way the graveyard. They clambered up a large elephants tusk, to get a better view looking down at the whole yard they were in awe.
After a few 秒 Kairia said"Whoa this place is amazing!" Kairia exclaimed Vitana nodded her head and replied "Sure is but its pretty creepy." Kairia nodded and 発言しました "Yeah, but isn't it awesome." Vitana 発言しました "We could get into huge trouble." Kairia replied "Yeah I know."
Suddenly Kairia spotted a large elephants skull and 発言しました "Cool look at that !"
They ran towards it and Vitana wondered out loud "You think it's brains are still up there?"
Kairia started walking towards it "There's only one way to know, come on let's go check it out."
Suddenly Zazu apperaed before them and 発言しました "Wrong the only checking out あなた will do will be to check out out of here!"
Kairia groaned "Aw ,Zazu we were just having some fun"
Zazu ruffled his feathers and replied indignantly "Fun, Princess we are way beyond the boundaries of the pride lands. This place is riddled with danger
Now come along now あなた two we need to get back to the pride lands before anyone notices we've gone"
Kairia hadn't moved form her spot she 発言しました "Zazu my Grandpa told me that the hyenas cleared out of here years ago. Relax there isn't anything here expect bones."
Zazu 発言しました " Princess, I implore あなた to see reason even though the hyenas maybe gone there are still grave dangers here, We must go now."
Just as Kairia was about to retort to Zazu they all heard a loud growl.
Out of the shadows of the graveyard came a large and powerful leopard. The trio huddled together in a サークル, 円 Kairia in front as the dominating predator came towards them.
The leopard just stared at the frightened threesome for a few 分 then it spoke in a voice dripping with a crazed sweetness "I am Solmari. Who are あなた and why have あなた entered my home?"
Kairia puffed herself up stepped フォワード, 前進, 楽しみにして and 発言しました "I am Kairia daughter of クイーン Kiara and King Kovu. I am the Princess of the Pride lands."
Solmari's crazed sweetness possibly got even sweeter as she replied " So あなた are the future クイーン of pride rock, I have always wanted to kill a member of the royal family!" Kairia 発言しました "You can't do anything to me!"
Zazu spoke up "Actually she can we are on her land."
Kairia replied "But Zazu あなた told me that she was just a mangy good for nothing predator?"

Solmari threw back her head and roared angrily then she grabbed Zazu によって his neck and flung him. The horn bill went flying through the air.
Solmari then turned her attention to Kairia and Vitana she spat out acidly "I start running if I were あなた right... Now!" With that she gave chase and pursued the two cubs throughout the entire graveyard.

Finally they reached a large cliff face that was too steep for them to climb they were trapped. Kairia was scared out of her mind. She did the only thing she could think of she roared .
Unfortunately it wasn't strong enough to even scare the powerful leopard.
Solmari laughed and 発言しました "Oh come now is that the best あなた can do, surely あなた a future クイーン can do much better than that ?"
Kairia stood her ground and roared at the Solmari again but it wasn't her roar that came form her mouth.
In a flash her mother leaped between the two cubs and Solmari.
Zazu ushered them against the cliff side out of the way of the ferocious battle. Solmari was strong but she was no match for Kiara and with a few swipes of her paws she was able to pin down the leopard
Kiara 発言しました angrily "Consider this a warning if あなた ever threaten my daughter again I will not be so gracious. I will end あなた "
Solmari bowed. She then 発言しました with false formality "Yes of course Your Highness."
Kiara roared and Solmari ran off. Zazu looked at Kiara proudly but she gave him only a angry glare in return. Kairia stepped フォワード, 前進, 楽しみにして "Mom I didn-”
Kiara whipped around to face her "You deliberately disobeyed me" Stunned Kairia 発言しました "Mom, I'm - I'm sorry."

Kiara 発言しました curtly "Let's go home."

As they all walked ホーム Vitana whispered to Kairia "I thought あなた were very brave, thanks for saving me cousin." Kairia whispered back "l didn't really but your welcome."

They stopped halfway towards Pride Rock Kiara 発言しました "Zazu." Zazu landed down near Kiara and 発言しました head bowed "Yes, Your Majesty?"
Kiara ordered "Take Vitana home, I need to have a talk with my daughter."

They were in the plains and Kairia slumped down into the tall grasses fearfully. Zazu swept over to Vitana and 発言しました "Come along Vitana." Before leaving Zazu went over to Kairia put his wings on her shoulders looking at her with sincerity 発言しました "Kairia good luck you'll need it." With that Zazu and Vitana left for Pride Rock.

A few 秒 of silence passed before Kiara 発言しました "Kairia."

Kairia winced at her name being called によって her mother but obeyed and walked slowly to Kiara her head hung low in shame. She sat down beside her mother.

None of them spoke for a few 秒 finally Kiara sighed and 発言しました "Kairia I am very disappointed with you. Do あなた realize あなた could have been killed today?"

Kairia nodded her head and 発言しました "Yes I know."
Kiara continued " あなた purposely disobeyed me and what's worse あなた put Vitana your own cousin in danger!"

Kairia exhaled on the verge of tears 発言しました "I was just trying to be メリダとおそろしの森 like あなた and Grandpa."

Kiara 発言しました "Your Grandfather and I are only メリダとおそろしの森 when we have to be, to protect the ones we love. Kairia being メリダとおそろしの森 does not mean あなた go seek out trouble."
Kairia exhaled again and replied “Mom nothing scares you"

Kiara bent down so that she was at eye level with her daughter. "That's not true I was very scared today." Kairia 発言しました "Really, あなた were?"

Kiara bent down もっと見る and 発言しました "Yes I was afraid I was going to loose you."

Kairia 発言しました "Oh I guess even queens get scared don't they?" Kiara 発言しました "Yes they do" Kairia whispered in her mother's ear "But あなた know what?" "What?" Kiara asked "I think that leopard was even scarederer"

Kiara laughed and 発言しました 'Because no one messes with the Queen. Least of all my own daughter. Come here you!” Kiara then swept Kairia up and started licking her all over.

Kairia 発言しました "Oh no, Mom stop get off !" She pushed her mother down and the two of them chased each other around the plains until Kairia tackled her mother and grabbed onto her tail pulling it she 発言しました "Ah, I got you, admit it your defeated!"
Kiara 発言しました tiredly "All right All right あなた win."

Kairia 発言しました happily "Yes I won!"

The two of them were laying on the plains Kairia laughed and clambered atop her mother's back and onto her head. Kiara sat up so that she could position herself もっと見る easily.

When they were both settled Kiaria asked "Mom we' re best フレンズ right?" Kiara laughed and replied "Right we're the best of friends"
Kairia then asked "And we'll always be together won't we Mom?"

Kiara 発言しました "Kairia let me tell あなた something Grandfather told me. Look at the stars, The great kings of our past look down on us form every single one of those stars."

Kairia asked awestruck "Wow really Mother?"

Kiara 発言しました "Yes, so always remember whenever あなた feel alone または scared in this world just look up at the sky and those Kings will always be there to guide you. When my time comes I'll be up there too. That way we'll always be together."

The two of them just stared at the sky for a few moments.

Kiara took a deep breath and 発言しました "Well it is very late, I think we should call it a night don't you?"

Kairia replied "Aw Mom we were just starting to have fun!"

Kiara laughed and 発言しました "Oh I would think あなた would be tired of fun after everything that's happened today."

Kairia shook her head and replied "Nope I am always up for fun!" Kiara laughed again and 発言しました "Okay then how about a little race to Pride Rock, あなた up for it?"

Kairia laughed and 発言しました "Oh yeah defiantly!"
Kiara 発言しました "All right then, on the count of three we start one, two, Three!" Kiara darted フォワード, 前進, 楽しみにして as soon as she 発言しました three. Kairia 発言しました "Hey no fair あなた got a head start!"

Kiara shouted "Come on slowpoke come and get me!"
Kairia ran happily after her mother she shouted "Don't worry I will!"
