[rubbing Ziana's head with his paw] Nala: Mind your father Kiara. Kiara: Yes mom. [giggles] Ziana: [giggles] Simba: And stay away from the Outlands. Zazu: Nothing there but a bunch of murderous backstabbing outsiders. [fly's off] Zell: Zazu's right, listen to your Uncle Simba, Ziana. You can't turn your back on any of the Outsiders. Kiara: Dad? how come? Simba: [sigh] You'll understand someday. Kiara: [annoyed playfully] Daad. Simba: And both of you stay on the path I've marked for you!!! Ziana: See you later Dad! Bye Uncle! Kiara: [laughing away] Zell: Ahhh... Just like old times... They really do have adventurous spirits. Do you know who they remind you of? Simba: Huh? What? [thinking] Who? Nala: [laugh] [playfully pinning Simba] They are just like the three of us when we were young. [giggle] Simba: [laugh and nuzzled Nala] Zell: [looking Ziana and Kiara run off in the distance] Do you think they'll be alright? I think I'd better go with them. Nala: It's okay... They'll be fine. [laugh] Remember when we were young we didn't want to be followed? Simba: Ahh... Zazu. Nala: Well, I will be with Ana. See you guys later.

Zell: [pause] Since when did Spanish and French mix? Timon: Ah, Never mind. So what's up? Simba: Well, we want you two to look out for Kiara and Ziana.

[laughing] [walking to Ziana] You're it! [playfully tagging Ziana] Ziana: [giggling] Catching cornering Kiara on a ledge of a small water hole. Kiara: [screaming playfully] Aaaahh! Ziana: [stops before catching Kiara] Whoa! Look behind you! The Outlands! Kiara: [turns back] Wow! I wonder what's out there? *rustle* Ziana: Do you hear something? Kiara: Yeah....

Let me define "BABY SITTING" Pumbaa: Huh? Oh [stands up] Kiara: [cough] Ziana: [choking out water] Both get out of the water shaking out their fur. Pumbaa: Now Princess, as the King's daughter, you should know better than to go running off all alone! You could have been hurt! Ziana: [confused] We wern't even running off!

Kiara: [knocking the leaf off Timon's hands] Timon: What!? Do you wan't a wrinkle? Kiara: will somebody please just listen to me? [looking at Ziana hopefully] Ziana: I'm listening, but at times like this I am glad not to be a royal. Kiara: But you are a royal! Only on your father's side. Ziana: [shrugs] Timon: Sorry. I wasn't listening, did any of you two say something? Kiara: Ugh! I'm not just a princess! That's just half of who I am! Pumbaa: [confused] Uhhh, who's the other half? Kiara: Well, Umm, uhhhh. Timon: Well, while you're figuring that out, Let's eat! [snaps his fingers] Pumbaa: [lifting a log up] Timon: Grubs!

Ziana: [Whispering back] Let's go! ~*Meanwhile*~ ZELL'S HALF:- Zell: [looking out to the Pride lands from the tip of Pride Rock] Tobian.... You won't get away with this! Simba: [walks beside Zell] Everytime you look at this view makes you feel good everytime doesn't it? Zell: Yeah... I'm worried though. Tobian hasn't shown himself in months! Simba: Don't worry, we'll catch him. Zell: I don't have any grudge against him but I wan't to ask some questions. Simba: [inhales deeply] Everything has been turning out smoothly... Zell: Or is it? [looking down at Timon and Pumbaa] [Running down together with Simba] Simba: Where's Kiara!? Timon: Well, uhhh... Zell: You lost them!? Pumbaa: Uhhh, yeah. Simba: They could be in great danger!!! Nala: What's all the shouting? Simba: Kiara and Ziana's missing from the Pride Lands! Nala: What? Go after them! I'll call the lioness's. Zell: Right away! Come on Simba! [looking and Nala] Oh and Nala? Please tell Ana where I've gone? Nala: Ok. Simba and Zell runs off. Reaching the Northern border of the Pride lands. Kiara in distance: Tag you're it you're it Ziana in distance: Uhhh, do you know how to play? I tag, you run get it? Zell: [whispering] Hear them? Simba: Yeah. [small growl] Simba: What's that? I'd better go get them! [runs forward] [roar] Zell: [looking back and see's Ana, Nala, Timon, Pumbaa and two other lioness's] [They finally caught up with Zell] Nala: Where are they? Zell: Quick follow me! [following Simba's direction] They both reach Simba where he encounters Zira. Zira: Zell? Zell: Zira.... Zira: Nala? Nala: Zira Timon: Timon, Pumbaa Now that we know each other, GET OUT OF Our pride lands !!! Zira: Your Pride lands!!! [roar] Timon: [quivering + worried laughter] Simba: My mother banished you from the Pride lands! Why did you come back!? Zira: No reason, I just came to pick up my Cub Kovu. Zell: Kovu? [remembering his dream] Zira: The last born before Your mother exiled us! Where we have less food, less water. Simba: You know the penalty! Zell: Kovu's Not even your cub! You just took him in. Tobian: [walks to the side of Zira] What's wrong mother? Zell: Tobian! [snarl] Tobian: [growl] Well, well, well Simba, we meet again. Zira: YOU FOOL!!! THAT'S NOT SIMBA!!! That's Zell! Ziana and Kiara quivering behind their parent's foot. Tobian: Oh well, I enjoy beating Zell. [pounces at Zell] Zell: Agghh!!! Zira: YOU FOOL!!! NOT NOW!!! Simba: [Pushes Tobian off Zell] You hurt? Zell: Only my pride... [glares at Tobian] Tobian: Oh, Zell... So, so... [smiles] nice. Zira: Oh, Shut up already! Kovu was hand picked by Scar to be KING Simba: [snarls at Kovu] You know the penalty for returning Zira: But the child does not!!! But if you need your pound of flesh, here [shoves Kovu to Simba] Simba: take him and get out! We're finished here. [picks up Kiara] Zira: Oh no Simba! We have barely begun! [evil laughter at Kiara] Zell: [picks up Ziana] Tobian: [laugh] Zell and his cub! I have found your weakness! Zell: [snarls] [turns back and leaves] Simba: [stops] Nala: Simba? Simba: [clears throat] [nods] Nala: [smile] Zell: [set's Ziana down] Ana, you go ahead. I've got to talk to Ziana. Ziana: [silent whimper] Ana: [smiles] Right. [leave's with Nala and lioness's] Ziana: [worried laughter] Zell: Ziana... Why did you go out there all alone? Didn't Simba and me make it clear that the Outlands is not a safe place? Ziana: You made it clear... But it's so boring out here! Zell: [smiles] I understand... [thinking about the past] Being in a different new place is very cool, I have been away from Pride Rock for many years. I haven't seen it for six years. Ziana: Really? Zell: I wanted to see Pride Rock so bad after leaving, I had adventures outside of Pride Lands. I liked it but I soon found the greatest adventure is to go back home. You should appreciate the lands. Look at the sun. [looking at the sunset]. Ziana: [looking at the sunset] Zell: I once travelled so far... A very long journey... I missed this place, the grass, the wind you should know how lucky you are to be here. Life is an adventure, walking everywhere is an adventure. Just don't go looking for it in the wrong places. Ziana: Yes Dad. Zell: [smiles] It's a great planet, we are all connected to the circle of life. Ziana: I don't understand the circle of life! It's all so complicated than you think. I mean, I feel I don't belong here... Zell: [chuckles] You will always belong here. [licking Ziana] [starts to sing] CIRCLE OF LIFE:- By Elton John Beat:- Lion King Special Edition The disney Circle of Stars: Orlando Brown Hilary Duff Tahj Mowry Kyla Pratt Raven Christy Carlson Romano A.J. Trauth Anneliese van der Pol Zell: [intro/ instrumental/ rap beat] >From the moment we stepped into the planet, and blinking, straight into the sun. There's more to be seen, than can ever be seen, more to do than can ever be done. Some say it'll be eaten... some say, livin that lif. But all are agreed as we join the stampede. Never take more than you give. CHORUS:- It's the Circle of life. It's the wheel of Fortune. It's a leap of Faith. It's a band of Hope. Till we find our place, on the path unwinding. It's the circle. The circle of life! Ziana: Some of us fall by the wayside. And some of us soar to the stars.... And some of us still with our troubles. And some have to live with their scars. Zell: It's far too much, to take in here. More to find than can ever be found. But with the sun rolling high, through the sapphire sky, keeps great and small on the endless round. Repeat Chorus two times until the 'band of hope' Already on Pride Rock in front of the Cave Ziana: Till we find our place... Zell: On the path unwinding... [looks at Ziana] Ziana: It's the Circle... Ziana and Zell: The Circle of Life. Zell: [nuzzle Ziana] People rely on you. Let me give you a responsibility my father gave me. Please take Care of Kiara. Ziana: Huh? Zell: [chuckles, remembering how he didn't understand the same thing] Keep her out of trouble. Be her guide, can I trust you on this? Ziana: Yes Daddy... Thank You. [runs off to find Kiara] Zell: [sigh] When are you going to come out? [looking in the Darkness of the cave] Ana: [laugh] Alright you caught me. [nuzzles Zell] I told you, you were going to be a great father. So caring. Zell: She is a lot like both of us. Actually she takes the commanding side from you. Ana: [resting her head on Zell's shoulder] I like doing this... It reminds me of our first Moon gazing. Zell: Yeah... The sun has already set. Let's go back inside. [walks with Ana] Meeting Simba and Nala. Nala: So? How did your talk go? Zell: Just like Dad's. Nala: Isn't it kind of exciting to see ourselves in our cubs? Simba: Yeah, too much of ourselves. Nala: [laugh] Actually did I say too much of ourselves? I mean too much of you and Zell. Zell: [laugh] I'll take that as a compliment. Ana: It's dark. I'll get Ziana and Kiara for you two. Zell: Do you mind if I sleep ahead? Ana: Sure, I guess talking to a miniature Zell takes a lot of you. Zell: Right [laugh] [seeing Ana leave he lies down, head resting on his paws] Good night Simba, Nala. Nala: Night. Simba: Good Night. Zell: Sleeps. ~* Dream*~ All lions asleep. Zazu: EVERYONE WAKE UP!!! AN ATTACK LEAD BY AN UNKNOWN LION PRIDE!!! Zell: [fully awake standing upright] What!? Simba: I wonder... [runs out of the cave, followed by Zell] Zell: [running to the tip of Pride Rock sees the Lions. Squinting to see better] No.... Simba: What's wrong? Zell: It's Drego, my rival! He's leading the attack! I'd better tell Selena and Gund! [runs back into the cave] Ana: What's happening? Zell: It's an attack made by Drego!!! Hean: Drego? Selena: No.... Gund: It can't be! [running out to see if it's true] Ana: Why would he do this? Zell: Probably because he hates me. Simba: [running back in] Okay everyone! Listen up! Their Pride is Big but we own the Lands! We know the surroundings giving us the advantage! Mother, Serafina and Selena, take Kiara and Ziana Ana, Nala, stay with them! Zell, Take command of your Party and go attack them on the east! My group will attack them head on! Zazu! Zazu: Yes Sire? Simba: Check their formation. That might give us some advantage. Zazu: Right away [fly's off] Zell: Okay! My group! Follow me! [runs off leading a small group of attackers, the outcasts] *********** To see who the members are, check the character list *********** ~*Meanwhile*~ ZIANA'S HALF:- Kiara: Mom? What's going on? Why is Dad shouting? Nala: Shhhh... It's going to be okay. [nuzzling Kiara] Ziana: Where's Dad? Ana: He's going to be fine. He's out there trying to keep you safe with your Uncle. Ziana: Why are they attacking us? Ana: I don't know.... I don't know... Just rest... We'll watch over you. Ziana: [lies down and closes her eyes] Kiara: I hear roaring. Nala: It's nothing, why don't you go to sleep? Kiara: okay. [sleeps] Nala: [talking to Ana] I'll watch the entrance. Ana: Me too. Mom? Please watch Ziana and Kiara. Selena: Yes. Ziana: [opens one eye] [Serafina was talking to Nala, Sarabi was looking out from the mouth of the cave, Selena was looking away] [thought] I've got to get dad! [walks off Finding the same place where Zell had entered in Lion King re-written Ep. 4] Ziana was out in the moonlight. Ziana walked quietly to the sound of roars. Ziana: [gasp] Dad! [hiding in the bushes] [Zell was being attacked by many lioness's at once. Simba was trying to get them off Zell] Zell: [roar in pain] [pushes all the lioness's away with one slash] Drego! Enough! Drego: [laugh] Zell, we meet again. I guess it's time for you to die. Simba: NO! [jumps in front of Zell] Drego: Who's this? Is this your brother? Hmph, guess this is the last time you will see his face. Zell: [weakly] Simba... Get out of the way! This is my fight! Drego: [laugh] Don't make me sick! For years I have been waiting to get even with you! The humiliation! And now those years are finally paying off. Zell: [weakly] It's only been one year you idiot! Drego: [moving closer to Simba who is protecting Zell] Move! Zell: Move Simba! You will only get killed! I need you to protect the Pride. Gund: Drego! You are going too far! Drego: Oh, Shut up! You are the weakest of lions! You are an embarrassment! Zell: [pushing walking in front of Simba] You are an embarrassment! The Pride's have stopped fighting to watch the fight. The deciding moment. Drego: Now, Zell... Don't disappoint me! I am looking forward to a better fight than before! Zell: [snarls] Ziana: [running to Zell] DAD NO!!! Zell: Ziana? What are you doing here!? GET BACK! NOW!!! Ziana: Daddy...... Drego: Now isn't this touching. Simba: [moving Ziana back] Go back Ziana! Drego: I don't have time for this! {slashing} Zell: [jumped back, avoiding the slash] I've had it with these Chest Slashes! Drego... I have nothing against you... Why attack me? [remembering Thor's lesson] Drego: You should know why! You stole Ana from me! You took my PRIDE! You gave me humiliation! And you will give them back! WITH YOUR LIFE!!! Zell: ............ Are you finished? Drego: [angry growl] Zell: You are changing Drego. Remember when I arrived? You didn't fight me because you said I was weak and hurt. Look at me. You order your lions to attack me then you challenge me. You are not Drego! Drego: How touching.... So what? I've come this far I won't wait. {Raises his paw} Zell: ....... [dodges the attack] Drego: Not Fighting eh? Let me help you! {raises paw and Slashed Simba on the Neck} Zell: NO!!! {slashing Drego and Furiously slashing with wild combinations} ~*back to reality*~ Zell: [opens his eye's and stands up] [shaking] [walks out of the cave] Wind blowing. Zell: [thought] Why do I have these dreams? [not thought] Father! I need your help! [gazing at the stars] [softly] What does these dreams mean? ~*two years pass*~ ~* night*~ Sarabi: [walks up to Simba and Zell] Zell.... Simba... I must tell you two know that my part in the circle is finished. Zell: No.... Simba: Mother.... You can't... Sarabi: You can't hold on to me forever.. You know this time has to come right?

[turns to Zell] Raise a good family... Stay loyal to your family. I will go now. Zell: Where? Sarabi: We eat the antelope, and when we die the antelope eats the grass. Zell: Good bye, for now... Simba: I will join you soon mother. Sarabi: [nuzzles both Zell and Simba] Bye [leaves] Simba: [crying] I knew this time has to come... Zell: [in tears also] It.. was harder than I thought it was. Simba: Father... Please take care of mom up there.

Simba: You're right... I'm just worried. Zell: You should trust your own daughter too. You can't keep it like this forever. Simba: I know. Zell: Do the right thing and just leave her alone. [leave] Simba:......... [out of earshot] Timon, Pumbaa. Make Sure she doesn't get hurt. ~*Meanwhile*~ ZIANA'S HALF:- Ziana: [crouching silently] [she waits for the signal of Kiara] Kiara: [pounced startling the animals running to Ziana's direction] Ziana: [pouncing forward only to get bump with Kiara] Owww!

Kiara: Please listen to him! Rafiki: You! How dare you save the kings daughter? Simba: You saved her? Why? Kovu: I am a rouge. I left the outlanders. Or am I to be blamed for a crime I didn't commit? I humbly ask to join your Pride. Simba: NO! Nala: Simba! You owe him your daughter's life! Simba: [growls, walks back and forth] Zazu: Yes sire! A royal protocol is in order saying all debts must be paid. Simba: My father's law shall prevail. We'll see who you really are! Zell: [arriving into scene] Where's Ziana?

Ana: It's not your fault, you just wanted them to be safe. You didn't know it was going to end this way... Simba: I hope your daughter is still well. Ana: [shudder at the thought of Ziana dead] Me too. Zell: Hi, [looking at Kovu] Kovu: Hi. Hmph. Are you sure Simba and you are brothers? You don't seem alike. Kiara: [enetering] Don't worry, Dad needs time. [laugh] Give him a chance. Thanks for saving me. Kovu: Yeah, what kind of hunter are you anyway? I bet you wouldn't last three days! Kiara: Oh yeah? And I suppose you could teach me? Zell: I can! .... [looking at Kovu] Or... maybe not. Kiara: [laugh] Whatever Uncle! [looking at Kovu] Ok, we start at dawn. Kovu: Right. Simba: Kiara! Kiara: Coming!

Kiara: [leave] Night! ~*Meanwhile*~ ZIANA'S HALF:- Ziana: [cough] [recovering] ...... Where am I? [she was not in the fire scene] Lion: You are safe... What's your name? Ziana: Ziana, what's your name? Where am I? [standing up, she was in a cave] Lion: My name's Msafiri, you are everywhere. I travel alone. I found you unconsious in the fire and took you at least... a long way from there. Ziana: Away? [eyes widening] I'm Out of the Pride Lands? [running out of the cave] Msafiri: [going out of the cave walking next to Ziana] Ziana: [looking around] [only seeing grass, sky, hills and no Pride rock in sight] No...... Msafiri: Ziana, why were you in the wildfire anyway? Ziana: Nothing, I was just angry with my....father. Msafiri: Do you want to travel with me? Visit new places? Go on adventures? Ziana: I don't know... I-I want to stay with my father... I want to--- Msafiri: Just come with me... I'll show you new places. [smile] Ziana: I don't know yet, everythings happening so fast! I still love my father... I was on a hunt, get caught in a fire.. Msafiri: What did your father do anyway? Ziana: broke a promise... Msafiri: ...... Ziana: But my father's not like that! Come with me... I'll show you my world [smiles] Msafiri: Will they like me? Ziana: Don't worry! You said you are an adventurer right? A traveller with no Pride... How about you venture into a kingdom? I think you might like it! Msafiri: Kingdom? Ziana: Let's stay here! We leave tommorrow! Msafiri: ....... And I thought I was going to bring you somewhere. [laugh] Allright! Tommorow! ~* To be continued*~
