Motherly Love is a POV story by PrinceBalto.

Jasiri is adopted into the Pridelands by Zara
Premise[]
This is a story from Zara's POV about when she adopted Jasiri in my remake of The Lion Guard. For those who don't know my story, Zara is a leopardess character I created. In my take on TLK, she raised Simba in the jungle rather than him being raised by Timon and Pumbaa (who still appear). She taught him to fight and fed him on flesh. Then she followed him back to Pride Rock. As for Jasiri, she lost her mother and clan in an unknown traumatic incident of which Jasiri was the lone survivor. She wound up in the Pridelands and the rest is history.
Story[]
I never expected it to happen a second time
But it did
I had already raised Simba as my nephew
Now it was time again
This is when I met you, my darling Jasiri
You had lost your mother and clan
Despite the difference, I sympathized
That's when I knew that we were meant to find one another
I declared you my daughter
Now, I just needed to make sure that Simba was fine with it
I took you to him
He was more surprised than upset
However, due to our past connection, he allowed it
It was done
We are different, but you are my daughter now
Regardless of what comes after you
Be it Janja or another enemy
I will ruthlessly protect you
You are mine
Mine to me
You are my daughter, and no one can tell me different
By fang and claw shall you be defended
Near me shall you sleep
Come Jasiri, let us go and explore your new home
