Kiara let out a sparkling laugh. That type of laugh that belonged to a natural-born princess. The other girls around her seemed to feel for her...which she didn't understand why. Kiara shook her head out of amusement, but she continued to move her paws along the lush grounds of her home.
''Come on guys, Vexy it's alright.'' Kiara glanced the desert lioness cub.
''It's not that important. I'm okay not knowing.'' She laughed once more. It wasn't going to kill her at not knowing much of what went on in her younger sister's life.
''It's not going to kill me.'' She added, humorously. Had she came off as pathetic to the others? Princess Kiara? Surely not! Princesses
never looked pathetic. So, instead of pouting, the young lioness cub kept her head high, and her body gracefully walking like her grandmother Sarabi, whom she always regarded as regal.
Jelani glanced from Vexy to Kila when the youngest princess padded alongside her. The tiger mix perked her ears. Should she ask if Kila was okay? She held an expression of guilt, and Jelani figured this was because of Kiara.
''Are you okay?'' She whispered, lowly for the others didn't hear their conversation. Jelani wasn't the strongest, but she was clever. Jelani didn't see the two sisters as being close anyway. Kila had her own group, and Kiara had her own friends. So, why did it matter if Kiara didn't know such ''secrets'' that her sister never told her? Jelani let off a shrug. She had a younger sister - ahem, half sister - and, they weren't that close. Actually, Jelani and Nia were like two chemical reactions. If you mixed them together...the results wouldn't be pretty...at all.
Zuri gradually began to pad alongside Tiifu, straining her ears to listen to Tiifu's hushed whisper. Zuri glanced at Kiara, then glanced back at Kila before turning her attention back on her other friend and shrugging.
''Exactly,'' She whispered back.
''Kiara doesn't need her sister. She got us; we can be her sisters!'' Her blue eyes sparkled.
''We'd tell her everything she wants to know without any secrets.'' That was not how things worked, no matter how much she wished it did. She was simply Kiara's friend.
''But, maybe it's just a sister thing we wouldn't understand.'' The sugar brown colored lioness shrugged.

If they thought Kopa was going to give in easily, they had it all wrong. He was a tough cub, he wasn't going to allow them victory, but sometimes you had to play the fool in order to trick the ones who wanted to run you over. When Kion appeared next to him, Kopa stayed close to his younger brother. He didn't know how this worked, but he was serious.
Over his dead body, they would hurt Kion. Kopa couldn't help Kion before...but now he can. He will help him as much as he could because they were family. They were one. Family stuck together...was that him breathing heavily? Was he hyperventilating? Kopa found his breathing heavy and ragged. He didn't like enclosed spaces. he was claustrophobic. This was torture to him.
As they began moving, Kopa glanced back at the leopard. To him, they could easily surpass her. She looked weak in his eyes, and he lowly growled, but refused to take matters in his own paws. If he wanted to live, he would do it the right way. Not the stupid way. As long as Kion was next to him...breathing...alive...Kopa would find a way to get them out of here. In the distance, he didn't like the place they were going. Being lead through the desert. He pinned his ears down. Dear, Mufasa, please help us.
