Castle of friendship, library

Twilight Sparkle was looking for an old book about transporting animals and other creatures from different worlds, she was wearing a bathrobe since she took a shower after helping out one of her friends, Applejack with the chickens, then Spike and Fluttershy came into the library, Spike was wearing a white shirt, dark green pants, and light green sneakers, while Fluttershy was wearing a green turtle necked sweater, dark blue jeans, and pink flip flops.

"What you're looking for?" Spike asked.

"I'm looking for a book that can teach you how to transport living things to Equestria." Twilight answered.

"Like animals or something?" Fluttershy asked.

"Yeah, something like that, it was one of Starswirl the Bearded's most prized spell books that he's written." Twilight answered.

"I wonder what else does he have in his bookshelves." Spike said with curiosity and a hint of sarcasm.

Then she found the book and open it, she scrolled through the pages and found what she was looking for. "I hope I get this right." Twilight said as she cast the spell.

A bright light was shining in the center of the library as something or someone appears, Twilight, Fluttershy, and Spike covered their eyes as the light got brighter, then the light started to fade away and what Twilight, Spike, and Fluttershy saw was looks to be a seventeen year old, golden furred, red manned lion cub sleeping with his golden cross necklace and black underwear on.

"It worked, I can't believe it worked." Twilight said in quiet excitement.

"Oh, my..." Fluttershy said as she blushed.

Twilight regained her composure and went to the lion cub to tried to wake him up "Um, excuse me, are you okay?" Twilight asked, then the lion cub half-opened his eyes with his vision being a bit blurry from sleeping.

"Five more minutes, Mom." the cub said in a semi-deep voice before he went back to sleep, but once he noticed that he wasn't spending the night in the master bedroom anymore and that it wasn't his mother that was trying to wake him up, his eyes shot open as he sat up and looked around "Who and what are you?! Where the hell am I?!" the cub shouted.

"It's okay, you're not in danger." Fluttershy said in a soothing voice.

The lion cub continued looking around and saw that he was in what looks to be a personal library, he felt something rubbing on his left paw which startled him and caused him to look at his paw, only to see that Twilight was trying to comfort him, proving to him that she wasn't a threat and that he was safe.

"Its okay, we're not gonna harm you or do anything bad to you, I promise." Twilight said in a comforting tone which the lion cub calmed himself down and allow Twilight to rub her right hand from his paw to his forearm.

"Alright, I'm sorry for shouting like that." the lion cub said in a calmed tone.

"Its okay, you were just frightened, that's all. What's your name, sweetie?" Twilight asked.

"(Sighs gently) Kiongozi Hasnuu, but everyone just calls me Kion." the cub now known as Kion answered.

"Kiongozi Hasnuu? Sounds exotic." Fluttershy said with a blush.

Then Kion got up the girls and Spike were shocked at Kion's height, the two mares and Spike saw that he stood about six feet two inches tall, partially dwarfing Twilight who only stood about five foot eleven, and despite being an adolescent, Kion had a solid semi-muscular built that can make even the most well-fit of the stallions in the royal guards envious as Twilight was checking him out.

"Who are you and what am I doing here?" Kion asked in a calm and gentle tone, his surprisingly semi-deep and mature sounding voice which Twilight found really sexy made her regained her composure.

"My name is Twilight Sparkle, and this is Fluttershy and Spike, the reason why you're here is because I was experimenting on a new spell that brings living things into Equestria." Twilight answered which caused Kion's pupils to shrink.

"Send me back!" Kion said, wanting to go back.

"What?" Twilight said confusedly.

"Send me back, please!" Kion said as he grabbed Twilight by the shoulders.

"Kion, I don't know if the spell can be reversed, there could be a possibility that the spell can transport you to another place in Equestria!" Twilight said.

Kion was devastated at what he heard, then he sat down on one of the chairs and a few tears started pouring out of his eyes "Kion..." Fluttershy asked but he didn't respond.

"Kion, do you want to talk about it?" Fluttershy asked.

"I can't go back home, my family's gonna think that I'm dead." Kion quietly said, his voice nearly broke.

"But you're still alive." Fluttershy said as she put her hands on Kion's cheeks.

"My family doesn't know that." Kion said quietly with doubt.

"Kion, I know this won't help but can you tell us about your family?" Twilight asked.

"Okay, (sighs gently) I was born into the royal family of the Pride Lands, my grandmother was a former queen, my parents are the current king and queen of the Pride Lands, and my sister is the future queen." Kion answered this time it was Twilight's turn for her pupils to shrink.

"Y-You mean you're a p-prince?!" Twilight stuttered.

"(Sigh) Yes I am." Kion answered but due to him looking away, he didn't noticed that Twilight was going into a phase her friends dubbed 'Twilighting' which both Fluttershy and Spike thought she grew out of.

"Are you okay, Twilight?" Fluttershy asked with concern.

"Oh no, this is bad, I kidnapped a member of the royal lion family of another world and if they figure out that I was the one that stole Kion, they'll tried to find a way to get here and demand Princess Celestia to return Kion and the princess would be so mad that I provoked said royal lion family to fight the entire royal guard army and it'll be so catastrophic that I'll be called the royal kidnapper by everypony, possibly ruining friendship that I have with all of my friends, and the possibility of Ponyvile being attacked by a family of lions who would do anything to bring Kion back from Equestria!" Twilight said and while ranting, she was rising in the air to the point where she was too close to the ceiling and bumped her head, before she hit the ground, Kion got off the chair and caught her in his arms while she rubbed her head in pain "Ow, my head." Twilight moaned in pain.

"You okay?" Kion said with concern, Twilight got out of his arms and gave out a royal bow "What are you doing?" Kion asked, a bit confused.

"Please forgive me for my foolish act and my rudeness, your majesty, I didn't mean to upset you." Twilight said until Kion got annoyed by this and grabbed her under the arms to stand her up.

"Don't bow to me, I hate it when people do that, and don't call me your majesty because its unnecessary, just Kion is fine, I'm never the type that likes to be called by pointless titles." Kion said his statement in a bit of annoyance but not acting all offended as she was trying desperately to be polite , however he felt calm and a bit hypnotized when he saw Twilight's beautiful violet eyes but looked away in embarrassment, realizing what he was doing.

"But what about your parents? They might track you with magic and demand us for your return!" Twilight said in panic.

"If they found out that I'm alive and safe, they won't act hostile towards you. And plus, they don't know I'm here, and magic doesn't exist in my world, its nothing but creative tricks and illusions." Kion said with reason.

"What?! You don't have magic in your world?! That's not possible, how can a world thrive without magic?! How can..." Kion simply watched Twilight pace around the library, going on a scientific rant on a world without magic.

Kion looked towards Spike with a confused expression "Is she always like this?" Kion asked.

"You have no idea." Spike answered, then Kion sat back down and rest the right side of his face on his right paw, he wasn't gonna lie, he felt bad for Twilight as it looked like she must've dealt with unnecessary stress. Speaking about stress, Kion could imagine his mother, Nala going into a maternal fit due to his disappearance and desperately try to find him, Kion always loved his mother as she, alongside his grandmother and Kiara were the only living members of his biological family that loves him ever since childhood which he felt his heart ache in guilt at what they must be going through, but when it comes to his father, Simba? Kion hated him with a passion.

"Umm, Twilight?" Fluttershy asked as she stopped Twilight from pacing and nodded towards Kion which Twilight regained her composure and went towards the adolescent lion cub.

"(Sigh) I just wish I can tell my family that I'm okay." Kion said in a quiet and somber tone as a tear fell down his cheek.

"Twilight, I don't think Kion's home world needs magic in order for life to live there, I mean he's perfectly fine without any magic in a physical sense." Spike said trying to reason with Twilight.

"You're right, Spike, but I can't believe that I got up early in the morning and used a spell that Starswirl the Bearded himself was trying to accomplish, Princess Celestia would be so proud of me." Twilight said, getting back in her happy self.

"Why are you saying that like it's a good thing? I was transported away from my family and now I'm stuck here!" Kion said in anger.

"Ignore her, Kion, she's one of the few ponies who think that when they find a new magic spell they preform, they get appreciation from the princesses of Equestria." Spike said, trying to defuse the situation.

Kion calmed down and realized what Spike and Twilight said "Wait, princesses, there's no king and queen?" Kion said confusedly.

"Nope, just princesses and I'm also a princess as well." Twilight answered.

"So, what are you the princess of?" Kion asked.

"Friendship." Twilight answered, Kion held a chuckle at this, thinking that the concept was created by a little girl.

"Okay, so, where am I?" Kion asked.

"You're in the Castle of Friendship in Ponyville." Twilight answered, Kion started to laugh a bit at the name of the town he was in.

"At least you got him in a good mood." Spike said.

"I don't get why the name Ponyville is so funny." Twilight said confusedly.

"It's because we don't have a town that's named like that where I come from." Kion answered.

"Kion, why don't you want us to call you by your royal title?" Twilight asked.

"Because I hate the thought of someone wanting to befriend me just because I'm a prince, I'm sure you understand." Kion answered.

"H-How did you--" Twilight tried to say but was interrupted.

"Just by looking at you in the eyes, you're also not the type to be called by your royal title, especially when friends call you by said title." Kion answered while giving out a warm smirk which caused Twilight to blush.

"Umm, I-I hate to interrupt but I think that we need to get you some clothes." Fluttershy said as she twirled her index fingers together, Kion noticed that he was wearing only his underwear.

"Ah, shit, I forgot that I never wear pajamas when I sleep." Kion said as he looked at himself.

"It's okay, Kion, sometimes I don't wear anything while I'm sleeping." Fluttershy said as she smiled sheepishly.

"That's kinda hot." Kion said as he got a boner.

"See, Twi, even he agrees with it." Spike said with a smirk which Twilight responded to the adolescent dragon with an unamused look on her face.

"So, how are we gonna get me some clothes?" Kion asked.

"Our friend, Rarity, is a fashion designer and is good at making clothes for everypony, especially when they need better clothes or in the case of the upper class, fancy, expensive clothes." Spike answered.

"Okay." Kion said as he wasn't a big fan of fancy, expensive clothing and despite being a member of a royal family, he despises the upper class as they were nothing but arrogant, greedy, pathetic, and self-important assholes who complain about things that are considered petty.

"Then its settled, let's go to Rarity's place, I think she can find something for Kion to wear." Twilight said as she, Kion, Spike, and Fluttershy got out of the castle and headed out to town with Kion following close behind and got lost in his thoughts.

"I can't let them know the horrible truth of my backstory, not yet. (Sigh) I just wish Mom, Grandma, Kiara and the others could see this." Kion said in his thoughts as he looked around the peaceful town, then he held the cross of his necklace in his right paw and said something sadly in his thoughts "And I wish you were still here with me... Rani."
