Description

Chaka peered into the dark cave with curiosity. He stepped into the darkness towards the large shadow lying near the back and tried to be as quiet as he could, but the silence was broken; “Come here, son.”
Kovu smiled as Chaka crouched down towards his father so he could hear even a whisper. “Lay with me.” He said. The two began to talk of the Kingdom; it’s laws, the seasons and the effects on the waterhole, as well as it’s inhabitants. Chaka hadn’t had a nice chat with his father in a while since having met Bianca, but they were interrupted by Kiara as she entered the lair with a unfamiliar bird perched on her shoulder.

“Darlings, I’d like to introduce you to Moja, your new Majordomo.” She said with a smile. The bird hopped down from his perch and bowed, extending his wings out widely. Kovu looked annoyingly at Kiara. “That’s a Majordomo?” Chaka asked blankly.
“Your highness! I can keep a bird’s eye view of your Kingdom, and warn you of any intruders coming from miles away!” Moja said with a smile, pleased with his new title. Kiara wandered over to Kovu and nuzzled his nose while Chaka continued to think on the birds’ words. “For miles, you said?” He asked Moja. Moja hopped a few steps forward. “Well sure, I could count the stripes on a Zebra a mile away, from the top of Pride Rock!” Chaka stood up and walked out of the lair towards the end of Pride Rock. Moja bowed once more to the King and Queen before following Chaka. Kiara smiled, and Kovu went back to sleep.

Chaka sat down near the edge and gazed over the Pridelands. Moja landed quietly beside him and waited for him to speak.
“For your first uh…job, I’d like you to keep an eye out for 2 lionesses that should be headed here any day now. My sister is dark like my father. They may be accompanied by a lion, and I need you to tell me as soon as you see them.”
“Ofcourse, your majesty! I shall report as soon as I’ve spotted the princess.” Moja replied, and he took to the air at once.

Chaka watched as Moja became smaller and smaller as he flew out of sight until suddenly, something caught his attention from the corner of his eye. In the distance he caught a glimpse of a brown lion with a large mane stalking through the grass, keeping low and well hidden from a grazing rhino and her calf. At first he though it might be Nuka and the girls, but when he looked harder, he realized he did not recognize this lion, and froze in a shock of panic. “Mother,” he whispered before whirling around and running back into the cave of Pride Rock. “Mother!” he hollered, panic in his voice. “There’s a strange lion roaming the Pridelands!” Kiara looked up with the same surprise and worry on her face. “Kovu,” she said, trying to wake him. “Kovu wake up, there’s an intruder in the Pridelands!” Kovu stirred awake, and the worry began to consume his face as well.

“Who is it?” He asked.

“I didn’t recognize him.” Chaka replied.

There was silence in the room. “Chaka, you’re going to have to deal with him.” Kiara finally said to break the silence. Both Chaka and Kovu looked at her like she was crazy. “But Nuka’s not here yet!” Chaka said, even more panic in his voice. Kovu shook his head. “Your mom is right, you have to defend your Pride. I’m still too beaten to fight anyone.”

“F-fight?” Chaka stammered. His breath became more rapid as he thought about what to do. Kiara stood and nuzzled her son to calm down. “When you are King, you won’t have Nuka here to back you up. He’s your younger cousin, you don’t need him to help you rule this kingdom.”

“But Shani’s not even here! She’s always here when I need help.” Chaka said, trying to stay calm.

“This intruder isn’t going to wait for Shani to get back. But I have an idea.” Kovu said.

Ok so! New character, which isn't all that new as you guys probably recognize him from TLKSP as the little birdy from "We are one" scene :) I named him Moja, meaning "One" for that reason. I know, how original.

2nd, before I get bashed again, I totally referenced Mufasa's feet for Kiara's paws in this image, because I couldn't for the life of me get the proper angles right. Plus, I wanted them to be proportionate to Moja. So they look like mufasa feet, but whatever. I also checked out some pics of Zazu bowing down to Mufasa at the begining of the film.

hope you're enjoying the story, it's about to get interesting ;)
