Zypher: And here we are with another one of my random crossovers. This time it's Lion King because I'm sitting here on YouTube, listening to Be Prepared more than once so I couldn't help myself. Hope you'll enjoy this story and before you ask, yes I'll be doing Lion King 2 and Lion King 1 1/2 once I get done with this, probably just make this entire story into a saga and add them all together. Hope you like!
Summary: In Africa, everything was ruled under one demon king and he just had a son, an heir to the demon pride. But when an accident happens, everything falls out of control and this prince will have to set everything straight and become the new king.
Disclaimer: Does it look like I could own Yu-gi-oh or Lion King? No? Then no sue cause I'll never own them or any of the Lion King songs either.
Warnings: Since this is yaoi, there will be MPreg. If you have a problem with this, go away and don't bother me.

Demon King
Chapter 1

In the land of Africa, a race of demons lived in one giant pride. They were ruled under the eye of the demon king, Atemu. The demons respected him greatly and they were now all coming from all around to see the newest prince of their kingdom. Overhead, another demon by the name of Mahaado flew down and landed.
He bowed before Atemu and he nodded. Once they were all in front of the palace, they all looked back to see Keara, the land's resident shaman walking by and they all bowed before her. She walked over to Atemu who stood outside and she smiled as she gave him and small embrace which he returned before they looked back to see Atemu's husband, Heba, walk out with a small bundle in his arms.
Atemu and Keara walked over to him and Heba smiles up to Keara and she smiled back. She waved her staff and soon, a gold crown appeared in her hands and she placed the crown upon the child's head and he looked up to her with bright cerise eyes. She took the child from Heba's arms and walked back towards the crowd of waiting demons, Atemu and Heba following behind her. She raised the child up in the air and the demons bowed once more at seeing their future king.
The clouds parted above and a ray of sunlight shined down on them, the gods giving their blessing to Yami, the future king of the demons.

In a remote area, a mouse came scurrying out from a tiny hole, sniffing around for food. It stopped and sniffed out another's scent and before it could run off, it was grabbed by a silver haired demon. He smirked as he held the mouse by its tail. "Life not fair, is it? You see I...well...I would never be the demon king of the Savannah. Not now, not ever." he spoke, playing with the mouse before grabbing it again. "And you will never see the light of day again." he said as he was ready to eat the mouse but another demon landed behind him.
"Now, Pegasus, didn't your mother tell you not to play with your food?" The demon spoke. Pegasus gave a quiet sigh, the mouse clenched in his hand. "What do you want, Mahaado?" he questioned, looking to him. "I'm here to tell you that King Atemu is on his way here." he said before turning away from him. "You best have a good excuse for missing the ceremony today." he continued. The little mouse slipped from Pegasus' grip and ran off. "Oh now look? You made me lose my meager meal." he said, turning to him.
Mahaado only laughed and turned back to him. "Oh you'll be losing so much more when Atemu gets here."
Pegasus only chuckled. "I'm just shaking with fear." he said, crouching down. Mahaado saw his look and backed away. "Oh no...Pegasus, don't look at me that way. Help!" he cried, trying to fly off by Pegasus pounced on him, pinning him down. Mahaado struggled to get free and gladly enough, for him, Atemu arrived.
"Pegasus, let him go."
"Impeccable timing, my king." Mahaado whispered. Pegasus snorted and let him go and he stood back up, dusting his clothes free of dust. Pegasus smirked as he looked to Atemu, tail swaying lightly behind him. "If it isn't my dear brother coming to see me, the common folk of the kingdom." Pegasus said, sarcastically overjoyed. Atemu saw through the sarcasm and narrowed his eyes. "Heba and I didn't see you today at the presentation of Yami to the demon community." he said regally and with a hint of anger.
Pegasus faked his astonishment as he walked towards the stone wall of the cave where he stayed. "Oh my. That was today?" he spoke, scraping his claws along the wall and Mahaado winced at the sound. "It must've slipped my mind."
Mahaado rubbed his ears and looked to him. "Well, as slippery as your mind is, as the king's brother, you should have been first in line!" Mahaado growled. Pegasus only snorted again. "Well, I would've been first in line...until the little bundle of joy was born." he muttered and Atemu snarled, looking him dead in the eye. "That 'little bundle of joy' is my son...and your future king. Remember that, Pegasus." he growled and Pegasus walked off, waving his hand at him. "I'll practice my bowing to him then." Pegasus snipped with another dose of sarcasm again as he left.
"Don't turn you back to me." he hissed. Pegasus stopped and turned to him. "Oh no, dear brother. It is perhaps you who shouldn't turn your back to me." he whispered. Atemu roared as he went to stand before him, claws extended and teeth bared. "Is that a challenge, Pegasus?" Pegasus chuckled as he looked to him again.
"Now, now. Control that temper. I wouldn't dream of challenging you. I would surely get killed easily with your strength." he said. "That gives him all the more reason to challenge you." Mahaado murmured. Pegasus took a glance at him. "Well, as far as brains go, I got the lion's share. But brute strength," he started, looking back to Atemu.
"I'm afraid I was at the shallow end of the gene pool." he finished before flying off. Mahaado walked over to Atemu and stood by his side. He let out a sigh as he looked to him. "There's one in every family, my pharaoh. Unfortunately, I dealt with two in mine..." he murmured and brushed some hair from his face.
"They always manage to ruin special family occasions."
Atemu shook his head in disappointment as they both headed back to the palace. "What will I do with him?" he questioned. "He would make a good stuffed trophy. Maybe even a nice throw rug." Mahaado suggested. "Mahaado!" Atemu chided, laughing softly. "And just think! If he's a rug and he gets dirty, you can take him out and beat him!"

Out in a small cavern which doubled as a small home, a woman was humming to herself as she took a bowl and started to make a small hand drawing on the wall. "Yami." she whispered and then added the ceremonial crown as a final feature and smiled. Keara walked to stand beside her and looked to the drawing before smiling as well.
"Hopefully everything will turn out well for you." Keara said before she left to head further into the cavern to work on some more spells, Diamond placing everything away and followed her. She was Keara's apprentice and had to learn everything that would help the future king.

A few months later, Yami, now a young child, ran into the throne room, bypassing a few of the family members that lived with them and ran up to the dais. "Dad! Dad! Come on, wake up! We gotta go!" A random demon yelped lightly as he accidentally stepped on her tail and he whispered his apology as he finally reached the two thrones where his parents sat, asleep. Aqua, his half-brother and next king behind Yami if he was to die and not have any children to take his line, woke up and looked to him. Yami hopped up into his father's lap and pulled at his wing, saying 'Dad' repeatedly to try and wake him up.
Heba started to wake and opened his eyes sleepily. "Your son...is awake..." he whispered as he yawned. Atemu snorted as he started to wake up. "Before Ra rises into the heavens, he's your son." he said and Yami pouted. "No fair! You promised!" He said, pulling at his wing again but he lost his grip and slipped off his lap. Aqua snickered and watched as Yami ran back up and head-butted Atemu, making him groan but he was fully awake now and so was Heba. "Alright, alright. I'm up." he said as he stood, watching as Yami ran off to head up to a balcony.
Helping Heba up, they both went to follow Yami to the balcony. When they were there, Heba let Aqua down and he ran over, tackling Yami and they both started to play fight. The two smiled as they watched them before Atemu walked forward as Heba headed back inside and they stopped and looked up to him. He stood at the railing and looked out to the rising sun and both Yami and Aqua went to stand beside him. "I'll tell you both this, everything the light of Ra touches is our kingdom." Atemu spoke and Yami looked up to him.
"Really? So that means everything here is your kingdom?" he asked. "Yes and no. A king, or pharaoh's, reign rises and falls like the sun. One day, Ra will set when my time is done and it will rise again with you as the new king." Atemu said, looking down to him. "And when that time comes, everything will be mine to rule over?" Atemu nodded.
Aqua looked around and then spotted the shadowy place far to the north. "What about that shadowy place over there?" Atemu looked to what he was talking about. "That is beyond our borders. That is an unsafe place and you two must never go there." he told him.
Hearing this, Yami turned back to him. "But I thought a king can do whatever he wants?"
"There's much more to being a king than getting whatever you want." Atemu spoke before heading back down the stairs from the balcony. Yami and Aqua left the railing and ran off to follow him. "There's more?" Aqua asked and Atemu chuckled softly before they left out the palace to explore the Savannah.
"Everything you see exists together in a delicate balance. As king, you need to respect each and every creature from the tiny ant to the humans that live in villages nearby." Atemu said.
"But don't we sometimes feast on the humans?" Yami questioned.
"Yes but listen. We die and we become part of the land. The humans use the land to grow crops for food and that connects us all into one great circle." Mahaado soon flew by and stood on top of a rock. "Hello, my pharaoh!" he spoke and Atemu turned to him. "Ah, good morning, Mahaado." he said.
"Just came with the morning report from the animals." Atemu nodded and gave him permission to go on. Mahaado started on with the report, continuing on without stopping. Yami started to become bored and looked around before spotting a grasshopper and crouched low to the ground before pouncing but missed.
He caught Atemu's attention and he turned to him. "What are you up to?"
"Pouncing." he said with disappointment as he opened his hands to see nothing. Atemu laughed softly and walked over to him. "Let me show you how it's done." he said. Mahaado continued on still, not knowing what was about to happen. "Mahaado, mind turning around please." Atemu spoke and Mahaado nodded as he turned, not pausing once. Atemu looked back to Yami. "Now, stay low to the ground. Use the grass like the shadows and conceal yourself." he whispered and Yami hung on to every word.
"Ok, stay low to the ground, using the ground like the shadows to hide." Yami repeated, tail flicking excitedly as he followed what Atemu told him. Mahaado realizes something was amiss and turned to Atemu. "May I ask what's going on, sire?"
"A pouncing lesson."
"Oh yes, pouncing." Everything clicked into place and he squawked indignantly waving his hand in defense. "Pouncing?! Oh no sire, you can't be serious..." he started but Atemu only smiled and motioned to him to turn back around. He grumbled as he turned back around, tail flicking side to side. "This is so humiliating." he whispered.
"Try not to make a sound." Atemu whispered and Mahaado glanced back at him. "What are you telling him, Atemu?" He didn't get a response and looked back to see no one there. "Atemu? Yami? Aqua?" he questioned and yelped as he was tackled down by Yami. Atemu came out from his place with Aqua following behind him, laughing heartily. "Very good, Yami." he said as Yami left from Mahaado. A gopher emerged beside Mahaado.
"Sir!"
"Yes?" Mahaado asked, exasperated as he sat up.
"News from the underground!" he spoke and told him what was up while Atemu was speaking with Yami and Aqua. Mahaado gasped as he flew up and looked to him. "Sire, we have an emergency!" he interrupted. "Vampire demons! Near the palace grounds!" he said and Atemu snarled before he unfurled his wings and flew off. "Mahaado! Take Yami and Aqua home!" he said. "Aww, but can't I come?" Yami asked as he watched his father fly off. "No, son." he said curtly before he was out of sight.
"Man, I can't go anywhere." Yami said, kicking up dust lightly. "Young master, when you become king, you'll be able to chase those ravenous, nasty bloodsucking half-demons out of palace grounds from dawn until dusk." Mahaado spoke. "They were the reason we left our home in Egypt." he muttered to himself as he took hold of Yami and Aqua and flew of back to the palace.
Later on in the day, Pegasus was now pacing on a rock ledge. He growled and kicked away an old bone piece that was on the ledge before he turned and spotted Yami walking in.
"Hey, uncle Pegasus! Guess what?!" he said happily and he sighed. "I despise guessing games." Pegasus spoke.
"I'm going to be the king one day!" Pegasus rolled his eyes, turning away from him. "Oh goody. I'm so happy to hear that." he grumbled. Yami was so enthusiastic that he didn't care about Pegasus' expression. "Yeah! My dad just showed Aqua and I the kingdom today." he said and then grinned. "And soon I'll rule it all." Pegasus grunted. "Yes. Well...forgive me for not leaping with joy. Bad back, you know." he muttered as he moved to sit on a flat topped rock. Yami looked to him before walking over to his side.
"When I become king, what will that make you?"
"A monkey's uncle." he responded.
Yami laughed at his answer. "You're so weird." Again, Pegasus rolled his eyes. "You have no idea." he said before looking down to him. "So, your father showed you and Aqua the entire kingdom?" he asked and Yami nodded. "He did now? But I'm guessing he didn't show you two what's beyond the northern border now did he?" Yami looked down sadly and shook his head.
"No...he said Aqua and I can't go there." Yami spoke. "And he's absolutely right. It is even more dangerous than the Sahara desert back in Egypt. Only the bravest demons would wander there." Yami looked back up, peeved that Pegasus wouldn't think of him as brave.
"Well, I'm very brave! What's out th-" he said but Pegasus interrupted him. "No, Yami. I'm sorry but I just cannot tell you."
"Why not?"
"No need to put my favorite nephews into danger. I'm only looking out for yours and Aqua's well-being." he said as he stood and rubbed at his head lightly. Yami snorts sarcastically. "We're your only nephews." Yami said. "All the more reason to be protective...an elephant graveyard is no place for young princes..." He faked his surprise at telling him about the graveyard. "Oh dear. I shouldn't have said that." Yami caught on to most of what he said and looked to him.
"An elephant what?"
Pegasus sighs in fake dismay. "Oh well. You probably would've found out in some way. You are a very clever boy, am I right?" Pegasus said but didn't give Yami a chance to respond. "But just do me this one little favor and stay away from that dreadful place." Yami nodded and left his side. "No problem." he said. "That's a good boy. Now go on and have some fun. This will be our little secret." he whispered and Yami nodded again as he ran off but Pegasus knew the little demon would go and explore there anywhere.
He smirked as he unfurled his wings and flew off, developing a plan in mind.

Zypher: And that's it for this chapter! Now I'm starting to doubt no one would read, much less review, this but oh well, it all depends on what you think. If I hear just one thing about the parings being yaoi though, the story's going down the drain because I'm not in the mood to read anyone's flames about it. But other than that, hoped you enjoyed and I'll see you soon. As for songs, I'll see about fitting them in without the chapters sounding like it's in script-form but I dodged Circle of Life since I didn't fit it in like it did with the scenes in the movie.
