Trapidi In Motion

Lil' Lyon Meets Simba -by Trapidi aka Lil' Lyon
2:50 p.m. - 2004-02-16

Lil' Lyon stepped down the cool mountain side, and drifted down towards the stream. She pulled back her black fur, which was striped on her cheek-tufts a blazing red. She glared at her reflection, and didn't admire her birth mark, which looked like a scar. She accidenlty got her claw stuck in her golden hoop earing, and yowled from the sudden burst of pain. Lil' Lyon quickly looked around her. Did anyone hear her? She was hoping not, for this was the first time she ventured into this part of the jungle... miles away from where she used to stay.

"Hopefully there's no1 around, though, I do wish for some company, as I miss my pride," she thought.

She looked at her golden cross necklace that her Mother, Sango gave her. She wondered why she ever decided to venture off from her pride at Lion Lake. But she enjoyed adventure, even though it wasn't with her sister, Sekai.

"Oh yea?" a voice came from the thicket of the jungle.

"I don't think this is such a good idea!" another voice.

Lil' Lyon was startled. Who could be in an abandonded jungle such as this. She decided to quietly creep through the bushes to see what was going on.

She peered her ruby eyes through the bushes, and saw a warthog and meerkat gathered by a pile of snails.

"Finally! Some decent eatings!" she whispered. Before she could pounce, she heard another voice. She peered to the left and saw a young, teenage lion, her age in fact. His fur was golden and the beginnings of a tomato colored mane were appearing. He glared at the meerkat and warthog, and said, "Let it begin!"

The meerkat and lion started to suck the live snails from their shells, as they raced in a competition they called, "Snail Slurping".

Soon enough, the lion grabbed the last snail, and in agony, slurped it up.

Lil' Lyon was amazed at first that a lion would be eating snails, and not the meerkat or warthog. Then she got a better look at his face, and was astonished by what she saw.

"King Simba? Impossible! He's dead!" she whispered to herself.

The young lion trotted off with victory, as the warthog said, "Our boy is growing up!"

Lil' Lyon decided to follow the young lion, just to make sure that it was Simba.

The bushes rattled as she walked through as quietly as she could. The young lion paused, and looked towards the bushed she settled in, but kept walking towards the stream. Lil' lyon crept from among the bushes and paused over him, as he drank from the stream.

The young lion spotted her reflection, and quickly turned around to bare his teeth and snarl.

"Simba?" Lil' Lyon concealed herself in joy when she saw his face up close.

"Do I know you?" he paused in confusion.

"You're the king! Your destiny is to over-rule Scar and take the throne as king!"

"How'd you know? You don't live in our pridelands, and besides, my destiny is here!" he explained.

"Everyone knows about you... all over Africa! And your destiny is at pride rock!" Lil' Lyon explained.

He trampled off to the waterfall. Lil' Lyon followed. He laid his head on his fore-paw, and gave a face of grief.

Lil' Lyon looked at him with dissapointment, but understood all the pain and sorrow he must have had to go through. She smiled at his cuteness. Never did she think she'd fall for a guy because of their cuteness. She licked his cheek.

"EEEWWW!" he yelled in disgust and wiped his cheek with his paw. Simba looked up at Lil' Lyon , and put on a smirk.

"Well, it doesn't matter now. You're still pretty young and all."

She blushed. Never had she ever kissed another lion outside her pride. When Simba smiled back at her, she quickly raced off.

"Hey! Where are you going?" he yelled.

Lil' Lyon just kept running. She felt her heart race, not because she was tired, but because she believed she had fallen in love.

But Simba knew this jungle like the back of his fore-paw. He knew the path she was heading down, and he knew a short-cut too. As soon as she could think, Simba raced out in front of her.

"Aren't you going to answer my question?"

Lil' Lyon smiled, and Simba backed her up into a rock. She closed her eyes and shrugged back, as Simba licked her on the cheek. Lil' Lyon felt faint, and love-sick.

"There, now you may go!" Simba explained, feeling good that he had paid her back from the kiss at the waterfall.

"I can't just go now, not after that kiss!" she thought.

Simba was walking down the hill, his head high up, full of pride. Lil' Lyon went chasing after him, and tripped on a rock and the two went tumbling.

"You're going to stay?" Simba asked in excitment.

"Why not?" Lil' Lyon answered.

The two of them trotted off back to Simba's place, both of them side by side in love.

"AAAAAAHHHHHH!!!! It's a lion!" both Timon and Pumbaa yelled.

"Chill, guys!"Simba reinsured. "This is my... uh, friend, Lil' Lyon.

Lil' Lyon put up a paw and crossed it to her heart. "On my mighty roar, I promise not to eat you guys," she pledged.

"And, is that a good thing?" Timon asked.

"Of coarse!" explained Simba. "A mighty roar is something very meaningful to a lion."

"OR, lioness!" added Lil' Lyon.

The two roared in unicene, as Timon and Pumbaa watched in confusion and amazement.

Months passed, and Simba and Lil' Lyon's love bonded closer and closer. But Lil' Lyon noticed that Simba was getting older and more mature. His man was growing, and he was starting to go into his adulthood, as she was.

"Someday, soon, Nala must come and retrieve Simba. Their love will bond, and the two will overcome Scar, and form a new pride, as it should be," Lil' Lyon relized.

Though it crushed her heart, she had to tell Simba and end their reletionship.

"I have to go," she said.

"Ok," Simba said.

"NO! Forever..."

"What? Why?"

"Your destiny is with Nala. She will come someday soon, and you two will form a new pride. I know, it is your destiny."

"That's not my destiny! My destiny is here with you! I want you to stay, and together WE will form a new pride, all our own!" Simba explained.

"As much as I want that to... I can't, and neither can you. The stars of the many kings before you, have reminded me."

Lil' Lyon started to walk off.

"NO!" Simba shouted.

Lil' Lyon ran quicker, she had to get out of the jungle without Simba catching up. She knew many short-cuts as well, and took them. She finally reached the other side, where the pridelands were just developing. She hid behind a rock.

Lil' Lyon peered over and saw Simba reveal himself. He was out of breath and tried with his might to yell out, "Lil' Lyon". And as much as Lil' Lyon wished to yell back and reveal herself, she didn't.

After a while, Simba sulked back into the jungle. He'd have to go back and tell Timon and Pumbaa the bad news. But someday, Nala would come, and they'd form their deeper bond.

As Lil' Lyon began her new journey, she looked back onto the jungle, and knew that Simba would never forget her.
