Riku (Relatives of the King)

Riku is a adolescent Pride Lander, half-brother of Sarafina, half-uncle of Nala and Mheetu, son of Thando and Sarafura and one of the antagonists in Relatives of the King.
== History ==
Riku was the son of Thando and Sarafura. After his father left the Pride Lands, Riku begins to take care of his mother. Sarafura then promised that her son and daughter will have a good future to be top in rank. Riku also has a crush on Sarabi, Erevu's and Athena's eldest daughter. Sarafura told Riku about the newborn second son of Uru and Ahadi, Taka. He also mentioned that he will take care for himself, and will mate with Sarabi and no one else will mate with her and will not fight for it.
Riku teases Taka for being weak after he was pounced by his brother and because of him being inferior to his brother. However, his hatred for Taka grows even more, when he founds out that Sarabi, who he has a crush on, likes Taka more then him. Outraged, heartbroken, and resentful; Riku attacks Taka the next morning. After tricking him into thinking they could be friends, Riku scratches Taka's eye and teases him when he growls at him. When he was about to kill Taka, the hyenas, whom Taka reconciles with, came to save him. The frightened Riku tried to plead Taka to call them off but he refuses, reminding him of being to weak and helpless to help him. The only lion who mourns his death was his mother Sarafura, who blames Taka for Riku's death.
