Time: Evening?
Warnings: Not that I know of?


Giving up hope wasn't something Kiara ever did easily, but everything seem so... bleak. It was like a horrible strange nightmare, except she didn't think she could ever dream up something THIS strange. She had nothing to compare this place to. It was all so... surreal.

She'd managed to cross much of the city since her arrival, although she'd had a funny feeling she'd doubled-backed on herself several times, but still she hadn't found any sign of Kovu, only things she couldn't begin to explain.

Apart from being essentially lost, she was tired, having not slept well at all when she tried to rest and hungry. Oh she was hungry. The lioness could hear her stomach whine again at the mere thought of food. She'd not seen anything she could possibly hun nor even a single bug. Even the grass and trees weren't even real! This wasn't right at all. There was just something terribly, well, wrong about this place.

Kiara sighed sadly as she walked into a wide area of "grass" and "trees". It was a park, but Kiara had no idea of that. It was just another part of this place she didn't understand. She padded along, glancing around half-heartedly, but not really expecting now to see anything that meant something to her at this point.

Ever since she'd left Pride Rock the other night, all she'd wanted to do was find Kovu, but now... now she had no idea what to do.

"I'm glad you're here," Kovu told her, resting his cheek against the side of her neck in a sort of lion hug. Even though it meant she was trapped in the city too, the lion couldn't help but feel encouraged by her presence. It was better than being alone, and besides... it wasn't like they couldn't make a new life for themselves in Paixao. "I missed you so much..."

Something still seemed a little strange to him, though... She said she was lost and didn't know how she'd gotten there? He blinked and backed up a step, remembering events from a long while back. "Wait... You just got here? Then who did I get messages from a couple months ago? They said they were you, but I never managed to find you... them... whoever it was..." Kovu frowned, wondering if someone had been playing a nasty trick on him. One thing he did know about the people behind this place... They really seemed to like to mess with people's heads.

She only had a look of confusion written on her face. "Um... yes?" Kiara replied slowly, explaining what little she did know. "I ended up here last night. I was looking for you after Daddy... you know, and then I was here."

Kiara was pretty sure she'd have remembered being here if she'd ever been here before, much less sending him messages.

"So, I don't know how--Wait," Kiara paused as several things Kovu had just said hit her. If skin had been visable, she would have turned pale. He'd just said he'd missed her and that he'd been here-- "M-months? You've been here... months, Kovu?" she questioned, eyes wide.

She'd seen him only the other day, so the idea he could have been here that long baffled her utterly. It was almost unbelievable, but he'd just said it so casually that there was no way he could be making it up. Kiara didn't doubt him, just... it made no sense.
