Description

The small prince was alone on the top of Pride Rock. His father abruptly left him, his mother was out trying to hunt, and he was alone. If he were in a life-or-death situation at that moment, he would be dead, because his parents-- well, mainly Scar-- could care less. Scar just wanted that 'perfect' heir. He may have loved Zira, but he wanted the perfect one, no matter the costs.

Nuka sighed. He got tired of being alone, but who could he go to? He hardly knew the others of the pride. His father wouldn't spend time with him unless it was time for the lessons. His mother was hardly even there for him. Sarafina was mainly with Sarabi, or at least, when she had the chance. Nala could care less about the prince. The only one he had was... Sarabi.

He walked somberly to the main den, sighing almost every bit of the way. He walked in slowly, but he knew she wasn't in that part of the main den. He walked a little ways farther, and he slightly peered around the den's corner.

"Auntie Sarabi?" He asked. He had a bad habit of saying 'Auntie' in front of Sarabi's name, but Sarabi didn't seem to mind, or at least, she didn't seem to mind too much.

"Yes, Nuka?" She responded, slowly opening her resting eyes. The small cub began to walk towards her, then stopped, feeling like he was burdening Sarabi. He sighed sadly, his eyes welling up with tears, and his eyes gleaming. "Why does daddy hate me?"

This question shocked Sarabi. Sure she hated Scar because of his tyranny, but neglecting his son to the point of where he thinks his own father hates him? She wanted to speak, but couldn't. She couldn't say that Scar hated him. She couldn't explain why his father hated him, if he did. If she did say that to Nuka, what would she say? That he didn't like him because he was scrawny and weak? That he didn't like him because he wasn't 'perfect?' She sighed before replying to the on-the-verge-of-crying cub near her paws.

"Oh sweetie, don't think that..." She spoke in the most caring voice. "B-but..." He tried to protest.

"My little Nuka," Sarabi looked down at Nuka, "let me tell you something my mother always told me as a cub. She said, 'Sarabi, no matter what, even if you're going through tough times, if you've been exiled, if I die suddenly, just know this one thing; everything will always get better.'" She spoke in the same sincere voice that her mother used to tell her that. "Really?" The cub slightly cocked his head.

"Really. Why would I lie?" She slightly smiled before gently nuzzling Nuka.

I got bored. And I thought of a story that consisted of Nuka. And the lioness was originally supposed to be Sarafina, but Sarabi seemed to fit better. And, keep in mind, it's just a random story. Please, no negative comments. Thank you! c:
