Here's the latest chapter. Sorry about the pictures I added. I made them and they were rushed so they are terrible. Hope you enjoy.

"Kion get up!" Orders Fuli.
"Huh? What? What's going on?" Asks Kion.
"Who do you really care about? Me or Jasiri?"
"Where's this coming from? I love you more than anyone or anything."
"So why do you let Jasiri get close?"
"I don't. She goes away just when I'm about to tell her to stop."
"I don't believe that for a second."
"Fuli, why are your eyes red? Wait...you saw Scar, didn't you?"
"So what? He made me realise what a terrible boyfriend and friend you are! Anyways, I'm going to pay our friend Jasiri a little visit."

Fuli runs to the Outlands as fast as she can without breaking a sweat. Kion tries to keep up with her but he needed to slow down to catch his breath.
"Fuli! Wait!"

Fuli stops running as soon as she gets close to Jasiri's turf.
"Jasiri! Jasiri! Show yourself you wild dog!" Fuli yells.
"Fuli? What are you doing here at this time of night?" Asks Jasiri, jumping up on a rock.
"You and I have some business to take care of and it's not gonna end pretty." Replies Fuli.
Fuli gets into attack position and glares at Jasiri.
"Fuli, what's gotten into you? Whatever's bothering you, I'm sure we can work it out." Says Jasiri, clearly scared of the cheetah.
"There are 2 ways to deal with a problem: 1 you can solve them, or 2 you can get rid of it. I think the second option sounds quicker and more appealing." Replies Fuli.
"Fuli, please don't. I don't want to hurt you." Begs Jasiri.
"Can't say the same for me."
Fuli growls and pounces at Jasiri. She pins down the hyena but Jasiri kicks her off.
"Fuli! Stop this madness!" Jasiri yells.
"Madness? Oh Jasiri, you ain't seen nothing yet!" Growls Fuli.
Fuli pounces at Jasiri again, this time pinning her.
"Jasiri?" Asks a tiny voice.
"Fuli?" Asks another.
"Wema? Tunu? What are you doing here? Get out of here, now!" Orders Jasiri.
Fuli smiles wickedly at the Cubs and turns back to Jasiri.
"Why don't I hit you where it hurts most?" She coos.
"NO!" Cries Jasiri.
The Cubs run away from the fight with Fuli hot on their tails.
"Get back here you little runts!"
"Fuli stop this!" Begs Wema.
"This is not you, Fuli." Continues Tunu.
The Cubs stop running when they hit a dead end.
"Got you now." Snarls Fuli.
She corners the Cubs so they couldn't escape. Fuli towers over the Cubs preparing for the final blow. The Cubs shake and whimper in fear, not daring to remove their eyes from Fuli's. Her expression softens and jumps away from them.
"THEY'RE JUST CUBS!!!" Fuli screams.
She lies down and covers her eyes and ears.
"Make it stop." Fuli whispers.
"Fuli?" Asks Wema.
"Look at us." Begs Tunu.
Fuli looks at the two tiny Cubs in front of her with tears in her eyes. They notice her eye colour changing from red to green to red.
"We all know you won't hurt us, Fuli." Whispers Wema.
"Kill them! No! Stop!" Yells Fuli clutching her ears.
"Don't listen to the evil voice. Listen to us." Says Tunu gently. "You won't hurt us."
Fuli begins to cough and a dark mist comes out of her mouth and forms a figure.
"Seems you have a soft spot for cubs." Says the figure. "But will they do more damage than you?"
The figure prowls towards the Cubs.
"DON'T HURT THEM!" Fuli screams as she blocks the spirit's path.
"You can't protect everyone, Fuli." Purrs the spirit.
Fuli growls louder as the spirit steps closer.
"GET AWAY FROM THEM!" Booms a voice.
The spirit, the Cubs and Fuli turn to see Kion and Jasiri running in to protect their friends. Kion roars at the spirit and sends it flying.
"Is everyone ok?" Asks Jasiri.
The Cubs nod but Fuli stares at her paws.
"Fuli?" Asks Kion.
"I don't know what came over me. I saw you two being close and I got jealous. Because of my foolishness, I went to Scar. When I realised my mistake, it was too late." She answers as tears fall down her cheeks. "I almost got the Cubs and Jasiri killed."
Fuli covers her face as more tears fall. Kion steps closer to her to try and comfort her.
"Fuli-"
"Why do we stay together when trust doesn't always go around. I don't deserve you Kion." She sniffs before running off.
"Fuli, wait!" He shouts after her.
"This is all my fault." Says Jasiri. "I didn't know you were together and what I did was wrong. I'm so sorry Kion."
"I'm sorry too. I should've told you." Replies Kion.
"Friends?"
"Friends."
"What are you waiting for? Go get the girl."

Kion runs after Fuli. He tracks her using his mark and finds Fuli at the waterhole while crying. She doesn't notice Kion approaching.

[Kion]You know I want youIt's not a secret I try to hideI know you want meSo don't keep saying our hands are tiedYou claim it's not in the cardsBut fate is pulling you miles awayAnd out of reach from meBut you're here in my heartSo who can stop me...

[Kion]
You know I want you
It's not a secret I try to hide
I know you want me
So don't keep saying our hands are tied
You claim it's not in the cards
But fate is pulling you miles away
And out of reach from me
But you're here in my heart
So who can stop me if I decide
That you're my destiny?

What if we rewrite the stars?
Say you were made to be mine
Nothing could keep us apart
You'd be the one I was meant to find
It's up to you
And it's up to me
No one can say what we get to be
So why don't we rewrite the stars?
Maybe the world could be ours
Tonight

[Fuli]
You think it's easy
You think I don't want to run to you
But there are mountains
And there are doors that we can't walk through
I know you're wondering why
Because we're able to be
Just you and me
Within these walls
But when we go outside
You're gonna wake up and see that it was hopeless after all

No one can rewrite the stars
How can you say you'll be mine
Everything keeps us apart
And I'm not the one you were meant to find
It's not up to you
It's not up to me
When everyone tells us what we can be
How can we rewrite the stars?
Say that the world can be ours
Tonight

[Both]
All I want is to fly with you
All I want is to fall with you
So just give me all of you

[Fuli]
It feels impossible

[Kion]
It's not impossible

[Fuli]
Is it impossible?

[Both:]
Say that it's possible

[Both]
How do we rewrite the stars?
Say you were made to be mine?
Nothing can keep us apart
Cause you are the one I was meant to find
It's up to you
And it's up to me
No one can say what we get to be
Why don't we rewrite the stars?
Changing the world to be ours

[Both]How do we rewrite the stars?Say you were made to be mine?Nothing can keep us apartCause you are the one I was meant to findIt's up to youAnd it's up to meNo one can say what we get to beWhy don't we rewrite the stars?Changing the world to be...

Kion smiles at Fuli and she returns it.
"You used the song I sang." She says.
"If you're parents could hear it, they'd be proud." Replies Kion.
They nuzzle each other and feel a warm breeze fly through their fur.
"I'm so sorry, Kion." Fuli whispers in Kion's ear.
"I'm sorry too."
