The "New" Lion King

A/N: Hey everyone, I found this old story that I wrote in 6th grade, LOL, and I re-read it, and seeing that it's not written-well, I found it hilarious, and I thought I would post it as a parody, because as a beginning writer, it's funny to see the way we all used to write once! I hope you find it somewhat funny! ;) This is exactly how it was written, except I changed a few transition words, but this is the real thing, baby!

Disclaimer: I don't own "The Lion King," SP, or "Finding Nemo," Disney owns TLK and SP, and Pixar also owns "Finding Nemo."

Chapter 1: Finding Nala

One day, many months after young Simba was in the jungle with his new pals, Timon

and Pumbaa, he heard a strange noise one day. It sounded like someone was crying.

Simba tip-toed over to where the sound was coming from, and peeked through the

bushes, and...GASPS! Could it be true? Nala, his best friend, sitting right there! But why

was she crying? He slowly walked over to his best friend!

When Nala saw him coming, she was surprised. At first she was too surprised to notice

who he was until he asked:

"Nala? Is it really you?"

She stared at him and asked, "Simba?"

He nodded.

They both started yelling happily and leapt for each other. They started licking each other until Timon and Pumbaa arrived.

When Nala saw them, she got frightened and leapt behind Simba.

"Simba, what—

Pumbaa began before Timon cut him off.

"Simba, what are you doing and who is this no-good vicious carnivore killer?" Timon demanded.

Simba was shocked by the way Timon had acted. Enraged by the rude compliments about Nala, Simba defended her by leaping in front of Timon and roaring.

"For your information, she just happens to be my best friend!"

After Timon apologized to Nala, Simba helped her into the jungle and lay with her alone under a giant palm tree with a pond under it.

Simba moved closer to Nala. He nuzzled her and offered her some water.

She drank some with delight. However, she still seemed drowsy, so he gently splashed some water on her. She seemed much better.

Simba asked her how she came here.

She explained the whole story about Scar and the stampede.

Suddenly, Simba interrupted her. "Scar told me to run away and never come back, but you said he told the pride I was dead?"

"Yes, and now he's king and taken over everything—even your mom!"

Simba understood now.

"Scar wanted to kill you, the future king, so he would be king," Nala told him.

"That explains the elephant graveyard and the stampede. And the hyenas, too," Simba added. "That's why you ran away, too, Nala!"

"Yes, when I heard you were dead, I was crushed. I found the strength to get up and run away," Nala said.

"What are we going to do, Nala?" asked Simba.

"Simba, you know what we have to do," Nala told him.

"I know we have to go back."

"Yes! Both of us together. You're the true Lion King."

"You're right, Nala! We'll fight Scar together and take our rightful places in the Circle of Life! You're my queen, Nala," Simba finished.

"Really?" asked Nala.

"Yes of course. We must continue the Circle of Life," Simba said proudly.

Then they said their good-byes to Timon and Pumbaa, and raced home to the Pride lands.

A/N: So what did you all think? Stupid? Funny? Both? Please Review, and you can flame it if you want, because remember, it's my very first LK fanfic I wrote when I was 11 years old, and so, I find the mistakes and undeveloped creative style and unrealistic plot hilarious! But like I said, flame, review, write something, pretty please? With an Easter egg on top? Chocolate with cream inside! ;P
