History
Simba lived with Timon and Pumbaa in Hakuna Matata Falls, until he encountered Nala. Nala told him that the Pride Lands were falling, but Simba refused to go back [Can You Feel The Love Tonight?]. He went back, though, after a meeting with Rafiki and the ghost of his father, Mufasa. After Scar’s death, Simba found his mother, Sarabi, and his half-brother, Kito. When Sarabi died, Kito was taken in by Simba and Nala.

Simba lets the two of them go exploring, but tells Timon and Pumbaa to keep an eye on them. They come back with Kito, who tells Simba that Kiara is with an Outlander. They take Kiara away, meeting Zira on the way [We Are One]. Time passes, and Kiara is a young adult, and Kito is an adult. Kiara has her first hunt, while Kito is having a walk with Simuria. Simba gets nervous, so sends Timon and Pumbaa after Kiara again. When a fire happens, Simba gets worried that Kiara was in there and runs there, telling Zazu to fly ahead.

Kiara is rescued by Kovu, and when Kito falls to the flames, Simuria saves him and gets him out. Kovu asks to join the pride, and though Simba is anxious at first, he lets him. Kiara, Kito, Simuria, Timon and Pumbaa start to teach Kovu how to have fun, and Simba finally trusts him. When the two go for a walk, they get attacked by Outlanders and Simba is convinced that it was Kovu’s fault, exiling him [One of Us]. Kiara runs away that night, and the Outlanders attack that same night. Kiara and Kovu convince the Outlanders (except for Zira) that they were on the same side.

In the end, Kiara, Kito and Zira are on the ledge of a cliff. Kiara gets up and tries to help Zira, who ends up falling. Simuria tries to lift up Kito, however, she is too weak. Kito is about to fall when he is grabbed by Sarabi’s spirit. Simba believes him, and pardons Kovu. They all head back to Pride Rock.
