Nala

Nala is Simba's childhood friend who later on becomes his Queen in Disney's 32nd film, the 1994 "Lion King". She joins Simba in going to the forbidden Elephant Graveyard and ditching Zazu on the way. Later, after Simba has run away, she finds him in the jungle and asks him why he hasn't returned. After hearing that he's gone back to face Scar, she joins him in fighting for Pride Rock.
