because you wanted it......heeeerrrrrrreeee's another fanfic!  =^-^=


The terrified look on Kiara's face made her want to laugh.  But she 
couldn't possibly, her face was twisted in terror.  She was after all, 
hanging by her front paws off of a cliff, with a raging river below.  
Zira looked up at Kiara, who was holding out her paw to help her up.  
She growled, and swiped her paw at the daddy's little girl who had been 
a pawn in, and ruined her plan.  Zira felt herself slipping further down 
the rock face.  There was no way she was going to give in to accepting 
help from a Pridelander!  She would rather die!

Zira grinned evilly and looked up at Kiara.  Zira let go of the rock she 
had been holding on to.  Her last few memories consisted of the way 
Kiara's face was twisted in horror and guilt as she screamed "Noooooo!" 
when Zira let go, the feel of the wind going through her fur as she 
fell, the pain as she hit the foaming water and her body was thrown 
against the rocks as she was swept down the river, the coolness and 
wetness of the water when her body sank below the surface of the raging 
waters, and the thought that she would soon be with her beloved Scar.  
Then blackness.

**********

Zira's first conscious sense after that was hearing the hoarse cry of 
the buzzards overhead.  She could feel the wet sand that her battered 
body rested on.  She was unsure of whether she was dead or alive.  The 
pain she felt was almost unbearable.  Zira opened her eyes, and her 
blurred vision slowly came into focus.  She tried to stand, and failed.  
The numerous bruises and cuts on her body had made her weak.  She 
gingerly flexed her legs.  "At least I don't have any broken bones." she 
thought.  Zira flinched, one of her front paws was sprained.  "So much 
for hunting...I'm as good as dead."  She managed to get up, with much 
difficulty.  She started limping, if she was lucky, maybe some poor 
animal had been drowned in the flood and had washed on shore.  

Zira's fur suddenly stood on end.  She could smell another lion.   She 
turned, growling at a clump of grass that the smell seemed to be 
emitting from.  The grass parted, and a snarling lion came out.  His fur 
colour was similar to Scar's, but slightly lighter.  His mane was dark 
brown, and was blown back in the wind.  He was fairly well built, but 
the look on his face, and there were lines on his sides, showing that 
hunting was poor.  He didn't strike her as the type that had the deep 
end of the gene pool in the brains department.  All brawn, no brain.  A 
leonine beauty.  But more dense than a warthog.  She could see it all in 
his face.  His whole pride was probably the same.

"What are you doing in my lands, stranger?" he asked, his voice 
rumbling.  Zira looked at her surroundings.  The land was not as bad as 
the Outlands, but were definitely not nearly as rich as the Pridelands 
in animal and plant life.  Probably had hyena problems.

"I don't mean to be here, but I was..."  Zira had to come up with some 
kind of story to get this lion on her side.  "I was...thrown out by the 
king of the Pridelands, Simba, for no apparant reason, other than my cub 
was not his own.  Not that this is the kind of place I would prefer to 
come to." said Zira as she motioned a paw to the barren land around her.  
"Simba threw me off of a cliff and into a river, which brought me here."  
The lion looked at her.  

"Then, welcome to my lands.  Though the land, as you have noticed, it is 
not good, you are welcome here.  New blood is always welcome in my 
pride."  Zira smiled.  He must be having inbreeding problems in the 
pride.  Perfect.

"I thank you, but I must know your name."  

"I am king Tanaya." he said as he started walking away.  Zira followed, 
her mind full of ideas.  Weak-minded prides can be easily controlled.  
She grinned evilly.  

"You know, king Tanaya......you should try to find some better 
land......"  She would get her revenge on Simba..........

The End


Well, I think I wrote the first part, up to when Zira blacks out really 
well.....but I'm not so sure about the rest.  Let me know what you 
think!  Hmmm....now I have to come with an idea for my next 
fanfic.......

*thinks* Whoa!  I just realized this is my fourth posting in three days!  
Guess I'm not a lurker anymore! =P
