Here's dialogue for future fanfics

Celebrating Kupatana

Kiara stepped forward, and cleared her throat.

"Today, my father shall give a speech." She said.

She moved aside, as Simba stepped forward.

Simba's reddish-brown eyes shone with affection as he gazed at the assembled animals.

"I am very pleased to observe everyone celebrating this occasion in the company of those that are loved most, I am grateful to have that same honor, as I stand with my family, and I am aware of the presence of those that cannot stand beside me." He said.

From below him, Zuri stifled a sob.

Simba gestured towards Nala, and she moved forward to stand beside him.

"It is an honor to protect all that follow the Circle of Life." He finished.

The animals cheered, and Rafiki waved his staff.

The Pridelanders and animals of the kingdom watched the baobab flowers bloom. ––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––– The Savannah Summit

It was a beautiful day in the Pridelands.

Simba, Nala, Kovu, Kiara, and Kion were heading to Mizimu Grove to attend the Savannah Summit.

Kion and Kiara were walking together.

"Did Dad really invite Makuu?" Kion asked.

Kiara nodded.

"He's a new leader. It's important for Daddy to build his trust" she explained.

"I don't trust him." Kion said.

"You don't have too" Kiara said gently.

When they arrived at Mizimu Grove, Kion and his family settled on the ledge overlooking the plain.

Rafiki and Zazu settled below them.

"Didn't Matembo come?" Kion asked.

Kiara nodded.

Suddenly, Simba cleared his throat.

"I'm very pleased to welcome everyone today. I'm certain that we can negotiate peacefully for the benefit of all that follow the Circle of Life." He said loudly.

The animals cheered, and Simba gestured for silence.

"Firstly, I shall speak to Makuu and Bupu" he said.

He leapt down, and landed beside Rafiki.

Kion watched them approach Makuu and Bupu, before turning to Kiara.

"Kiara, I still don't have a good feeling about this" he said.Kiara sighed. –––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––– A Marvelous Performance

It was a beautiful day in the Pridelands.

Kion and his family were preparing to attend a co given by Matembo's Herd.

"Mtoto's performing today" Kion said.

"I know, Matembo told me" Kiara answered.

Suddenly, Zazu flew up, and landed beside Simba.

He bowed respectfully.

"There is a crisis at the Water Hole" he said.

Simba and Nala exchanged a glance.

"What is it?" Nala asked.

"Bupu and Makuu are arguing" Zazu explained. Kion groaned.

"I'll come to the Water Hole and straighten it out" Simba said.

"You'll miss the concert" Kia pointed out.

"What about tradition?" Belee added.

Simba sighed.

"I must take care of this" he said.

Nala pressed her muzzle against his.

"I'll praise them on your behalf" she said.

"Thank you" Simba purred.

Zazu cleared his throat.

Simba nodded, and Zazu led him away.

Nala's expression brightened.

"Come, they'll be worried if we don't show up" she said brightly.

When they arrived at Mizimu Grove, Nala assembled them on the ledge.

She and Kiara leapt down to join Matembo.

Matembo bowed respectfully towards Nala.

"Greetings" she said warmly.

"Hello, Matembo" Kiara purred.

"Where is King Simba?" Matembo asked.

"Something came up. He was disappointed to miss this wonderful event" Nala explained.

Matembo nodded.

"I understand" she said.

"We are very grateful." Kiara said.

She and Nala climbed up the slope.

Matembo cleared her throat.

"Today, I am proud to include my son in the performance." She said.

She turned to her herd, and they began to trumpet.

Kion leaned against Kiara's foreleg.

"Mtoto's pretty good" he said.

Kiara nodded.

"Matembo said he's been practicing"'she said.

When they'd finished, Nala leapt down, and cleared her throat.

"I am pleased to praise this performance on behalf of Simba and myself" she said warmly.

Matembo inclined her head.

Kiara leapt down to join Nala.

She smiled brightly as Mtoto approached.

"You were wonderful Mtoto" she praised.

"Really?" Mtoto asked.

Kiara nodded.

"I'm very proud of you" she said.

Mtoto pressed himself against her foreleg.

Suddenly, Simba rushed into the clearing.

He settled beside Nala.

"Is everything okay?" Nala asked.

Simba nodded.

He inclined his head towards Matembo.

"Thank you for your patience" he said.

"Of course" Matembo said kindly.

Kiara gently nudged Mtoto forward.

Simba's expression softened.

"Perhaps Mtoto could perform for me again?" He said.

Mtoto nodded eagerly.

"I'd be honored" he said.

"He can come to Pride Rock" Matembo said. –––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––– Encountering Atka

It was a beautiful day in the Pridelands.

Kovu and Vitani were spending time together at the Meadow.

They were settled down underneath the baobab tree.

"How was the hunt?" Kovu asked.

"It was fine." Vitani answered.

She sighed, and glanced up.

"What's wrong, Tani?" Kovu asked.

Vitani stood up.

"I'm going to do something I should've done long ago" she said.

"What?" Kovu prompted.

Vitani cleared her throat.

"Dad, I want to speak with you!" She called.

Kovu gasped.

He and Vitani shivered as Atka's spirit embraced them.

"My children" Atka murmured.

Vitani pressed herself closer to Kovu.

"We love you Dad" she said.

"We miss you very much" Kovu added.

Atka's expression softened. "I love and miss you too. I am so proud of both of you" he said.

"Really?" Kovu asked.

Atka nodded.
