Description

Finally I watched "The Lion Guard", and I do not like it, Kion is not so bad but the story... The story is like a middling fancomic, where authors do not care about character's original personality and storyline... And I hate the design.

But anyway, it's not our case here. Now I watched it I can officially speak to you about "my" version of  Simba's cubs. =3

----------

Kopa: Kopa is the oldest, he is the cub seen in the end of TLK, he is born the same years as Kovu ( 295 ). Simba was very proud of his firstborn and had big project for him. Kopa was also friends with Nuka and Chuki, who was exiled with their mother. The three had a strong friendship, until Zira discover it and try to kill Kopa, he escaped thanks to Shule and her mate. He is presumed dead by his parents.

Shani : She is Kopa's young twin, she really looks like her mother, but had the temper of her father. She was with Kopa when Zira tried to kill them, the striped lioness hurt the little girl and she fall in the river. She is presumed dead by her parent, like her brother.

Kiara: Kiara is born from the second litter of Simba and Nala ( late 299, early 300 ) . She is the first of the litter. She grew as an adventurer and clumsy girl, but she was always nice and no one ever blame her. When her older siblings disappeared, ( no one told her how ) she is the next in line to be queen, and his father became overprotective, to her dismay...

Kion ( aka, Kiongozi ): Kion is the second cubs of Nala and Simba's second litter. He is a very VERY imaginative cub. He do not play very much with his siblings, preferring to play a game "lions guard" with his friend. He heard the story of the extinct " Guardian order" and imagine a whole story based on the second born to be a lion guard who protect the kingdom ( instead of the king), because of his need to reconnaissance. When troubles become more and more serious, Simba decide to sent him to Chaka's adoptive pride to protect him from Zira.

Chaka: Chaka is the third cub of the litter, and so the last cub of Simba and Nala. After his older cubs' "death" he became a little bit paranoid and to avoid any assassination attempt for his last son, he betrothed him to princess Timara, the daughter of one of his neighbor. Chaka was very close to Kiara, but had difficulties with Kion after his father send his brother to his new pride. He really adored his older siblings, particularly Shani.

----------

Here is their story as cubs, I will also do at as adults. 

Why I chose this story?

Kopa = Because I like the idea of a explanation to "Why Simba is so annoying in
TLK2". If he lost cubs because of Zira we can understand him. It ( for me ) explain why he became so different from the first movie.

Shani = In TLK2 first story line, Kiara did not exist, but Shani did. Her design and personality seem close to Simba's. So I made a Shani who is close to Simba, but with Nala's traits.

Kiara = Because she is a canon character. And I try to respect her nature.

Kion = I do not hate Kion. But I don't like "The Lion Guard". It does not make sense at all. It's like "hey, it's all magic! And I'm more important than the queen! Where was I in TLK2, oh yeah, I do not care! And Kiara is so serious, not like in TLK2! Scar tried to kill Mufasa but was still in the pride? ect..." It only can be possible for me to consider this show as canon if, and only if Kion is a very imaginative child, a little bit jealous of his sister and who want to be important for the pride. So he image he have magic powers and IS important, so important that his father trust him enough to load a cub to protect the prideland. He also imagine his sister is "a perfect little queen" and that he will become as "good" as her, when she is actualy a kind of trouble maker. Also in my comics, there will be the "order of guardians", ( I imagined it BEFORE TLG ) so I had it to Kion's case. He learned about it, and so he did a mix with all he knows for his imaginative world.  

Chaka: In the first story line of TLK2 Chaka was Shani's twin. I decide to create a Chaka as a twin for Kiara. A good guy who support his family, even if he is away from them.
