Kitabu calmed down fairly quickly and smiled at the young cub. She was still lying down as she looked at it and she said, "I'm sorry, sweetie." Then she looked at the Jaguar, frowned, and asked her, "And what were you doing watching us from that tree?!"

Trinket swallowed and looked at Jamall. "Okay....im a little...s-scared..." she said softly. She listened around for Tullus...nothing. She shrugged and looked back over to Jamall. She looked back over to Kitabu. She gave a slight smile and looked at Jamall. She shook slightly from nerves and coldness just a little.

Jamall's fatherly instincts, gained from many years of babysitting, kicked in as Trinket said she was frightened. "I'm sorry." He replied, draping a forepaw over her back to help keep her warm. "My name is Jamall. What is yours?" He asked warmly, giving her a fatherly nuzzle, at the same time glancing over at Kitabu and the Jaguar. He was wondering the same thing his lover was.

Trinket smiled at Jamalls fatherly muzzle. She sighed and snuggled slightly into the paw that was draped over her. "Im Trinket....or Trinky...whatever." She said smiling.

"I was simply bored. I left an hour ago; I just came back. I don't mean to be rude. Anara won't let me follow her around nearly ever, so I have to be content with watching other lions. I find your species... fascinating." Kiki admitted, speaking mainly to Kitabu since Jamall did not seem to be listening.

"Pleased to meet you, Trinket." Jamall replied, lightly nuzzling the little one again. His ears perked up as the Jaguar spoke, and he looked up at her and listened intently. "No matter how interesting our kind may be, it does not give you the right to eavesdrop on a couple sharing a tender moment with each other."

"Well it's as close as I can get to my own moments." Kiki mumbled, frowning. Suddenly Anara came out of the bushes. The jaguar stayed silent.
The bird had flown away by the time Anara decided to go after Kiki, so she did. She looked at the couple more closely now. Jamall and Kitabu! "Hello." she said sheepishly, obviously embarrassed.

Kitabu listened to her lover with awe, but when the Jaguar began to speak, her head darted in her direction. When she was finished talking, Kitabu said, "Well, have you ever thought that what you're doing might not be meant to be seen?"

Trinket rested her head agianst Jamalls chest. She then heard a roar of pain and she shot up. "Tullus!!! No no no...." she said hopping out of Jamalls paws. She looked around in panic. Her ears were straight up and took short rapid breaths. "Tullus!!!!!" she said again. Tears rolled down her cheek. She shook her head. "No..." she wanted to go, but she didnt know where to go.
Tullus was looking for Trinket, when he came across another lion. He had no clue who it was. It snarled and attacked. Tullus didnt have time to dodge it at all. He roared a loud painful roar. He looked at the lion as he grinned and laughed. Tullus attacked and tripped. The other lion dodged and laughed more. Tullus fell onto his side and groaned. He turned to get up and was pinned. The claws dug into his shoulders. He was stuck....

"Making sure this furball doesn't get into trouble. I don't think I'm doing a very good job." Anara answered, looking at Kiki and mouthing that she should stay quiet.

Kitabu immediately felt horrible for the little cub. As it began to run away, she started following the sound of the roar. She called back to her lover, "Jamall, come on!"

Jamall leaped to his paws as he heard the roar. Without taking but a moment to explain to Kitabu, he bolted off into the brush, following the roar to it's source. It took the Pride Lander only twenty seconds to reach the site of the attack. It only took him a moment to figure out who to attack. He let loose a earth-shattering roar that put even King Simba's roar to shame, then leaped at the male perched atop Tullus. He knocked the male clean off Trinket's brother, then began slashing at him with his razor-sharp claws.

Kitabu watched in horror and, at the same time, awe as her lover dominated the lion attacking the poor little cub. When the battle was a safe distance away, Kitabu laid down next to the cub, beckoned its sister closer, and stroked it with her paw in a comforting manner.

Tullus layed there breathing heavily. He bleed from his cheek, closeto his muzzle. His paw hurt from the fal and his shoulders burned and bleed. He clenched his eyes shut and tried to move...he couldnt at the moment. He turned his head and saw Jamall. He was a big boy, and a very strong boy. He sighed and looked over at his crying sister who jst got there.
Trinket followed Jamall, but a lot slower. When she got there, her jaw dropped. "Tullus!!!" she said ruunning towards him. "No!" she said softly. She put her paws on his arm. She nuzzled it. Tears streaked down her face. She looked at him. She was speechless...this was all her fault.

Kitabu stroked and comforted Tullus's back. She was lying down on the ground next to the wounded cub. She whispered, "Don't worry, it's going to be all right." She then turned to Trinket and beckoned her to come beside her.

After nearly losing a eye and receiving a very painful blow to the chest, the lion who had been attacking Tullus turned tail and [wisely] ran away. Jamall turned and walked over to Tullus and Trinket, a seriously concerned expression on his muzzle. He stood over Tullus, examining his wounds for a moment. He then looked the male in the eyes. "Hey, you're gonna be OK. Come on, can you walk? We need to get you someplace safe."

Kitabu looked at her lover, tears streaming down her face. "Jamall, is he going to be all right? Perhaps we should take him to Pride Rock," she sobbed.
Kovu was agonizingly anxious about his betrothal to Kiara that day. He was receiving a full cleansing of his mane by a few lionesses and a couple of other animals. He could barely keep from squirming around. He had no idea how Pridelands wedding ceremonies were conducted. All he knew, in fact, was that Rafiki would be administering it. He saw Simba in the distance, and, disregarding the squirming that would result, he called out, "Simba!"

Anara and Kiki stayed where they were for a minute; looked at each-other; and ran off to see the action. It was not a pretty sight for either of them.

Jamall looked up at Kitabu, smiled, and nodded. "He'll be fine, if a healer tends to his wounds." He replied, walking around to his lover and licking the tears from her cheeks.
Simba's ears perked up at Kovu's voice. The King turned and walked straight towards Kovu. He dismissed the groomers, then sat down in front of his future son in law. "What is it, Kovu?"

Kitabu took Trinket under her paws and began comforting her. She didn't know what to do. She whispered, "It's going to be all right, sweethart."
Kovu took a deep breath. "Simba.....Dad.....Am I really what you envisioned your daughter's mate would be?"
