I try to do fic.s in spirit of the holidays sometimes. Anyway, a few Scar fans might like this fic. Personally, I'm not a Scar fan. But he is the perfect villain in some cases.
By the way, this has nothing to do with the rest of my fics. (Holiday fics usually don't, they're just written for the seasons.) Just something I wanted to tell you to avoid being flamed.
But enough intro. Enjoy the fic!
Scar looked up with emotionless eyes as he watched his father, Ahadi, talking with some of the kings of the past. He sighed to himself, then heard footsteps coming his way.
He looked to his left to see his brother, Mufasa, walking up to him.
"Watching father negotiate with the kings of the past again?" Mufasa asked him.
"Sometimes it seems as though I shall never be accepted among them." Scar said without looking at his brother.
"I want you in heaven with us Scar, I really do. It's just that there are some lions up there that believe that some lions never change." Mufasa said. Scar sighed to himself again, then started to walk in a direction away from his brother.
"Where are you going?" Mufasa said to him.
"I think I'll just see how my 'old friends' are doing." Scar replied, still walking away. Mufasa thought for a minute.
"Perhaps I shall go see how my son is ruling the kingdom." he said slightly smiling. He walked over to a cloud with a hole in the bottom.
He looked through it to see Simba and Nala nuzzling a bit. He could see Zazu perched on a tree branch not far away. He could also see the meerkat and warthog who raised his son close by as well.
Meanwhile, Scar was looking through a hole in a cloud as well. He could see Ed laughing like crazy, as usual. He also saw Shenzi yelling at Banzai for some unknown reason. And he could also see T, laying down on a rock beside Ed.
Scar had learned about about her the minute he found out Shenzi accepted a new hyena into her clan.
"Scar." came a voice from behind him. Scar turned around to see Ahadi, Mufasa was beside him.
"I have tried all I can to convince the elders to allow you into heaven." Ahadi said to his youngest son.
"And I have managed to come to an agreement with them." he finished.
"And I may get in?" Scar asked his father.
"ONLY, if you can complete a task we have decided for you." Ahadi said.
"Anything!" Scar said. Mufasa and Ahadi exchanged uneasy glances.
"If you ever hope to join your brother and myself among the stars, you must first earn the forgiveness of the three friends you double-crossed, and of the nephew you nearly killed." Ahadi said.
Scar eyes widened; this task would be long and perilous if not impossible. Ahadi lowered his head at his son's reaction.
"I blame myself for it having come to this. I wished I could have been more of a father to you." Ahadi said to Scar, but then raised his head up again.
"You are, however, allowed to bring help along this mission." he said. Scar opened his mouth to say something.
"Only it cannot be your brother and myself." Ahadi said. Scar slowly closed his mouth after hearing this.
"What do you say, my son?" Ahadi said. After thinking for a minute, Scar looked his father and brother in the eyes with a serious expression upon his face.
"Zira." came a voice from behind an outlander lioness. She turned around and a happy grin appeared on her face when she saw Scar. Her son, Nuka, was lazily staring at his claws not far away.
Zira and Nuka were also lions that were being debated on whether to join the kings or not. Zira walked up to her friend.
"Don't tell me, they're letting you in and you're taking us with you." Zira said, smiling with hope.
"Far from it I'm afraid." Scar replied. Nuka looked up at the two adult lions. Scar explained to them what his father had told him. When he was finished, Nuka looked completely hopeless and Zira looked annoyed.
"They might as well throw us in the fiery pit now; those hyenas hold onto a grudge like a meerkat holds onto a bug sandwich." Zira said.
"But they were our friends Zira. They knew we weren't always like this." Scar said.
"Maybe. But what about Simba? You don't really expect his forgiveness do you?" Zira asked him.
"We'll cross that bridge when we get to it." Scar said.
"Here's an idea; why not just-" Nuka was about to say until Zira cut him off.
"Nuka! Speak when you're spoken to!" she yelled at him. Nuka whimpered and cringed back from his mother.
Scar looked Zira right in the eyes.
"It's our only chance." he said. Zira was quiet for awhile, but then looked up at him again.
"I'm not letting you out of my sight through any of it." she said, smirking. Scar smiled at her.
"Are you ready, my son?" Ahadi asked Scar as he, Zira, and Nuka were about to be sent back to earth.
"I am." Scar replied.
"Then good luck to you." Ahadi said.
"All of you." Mufasa added. Then the three lions turned around and ran straight into a bright light. Before Scar went through he heard a voice behind him.
"Scar!" He turned around to see Mufasa.
"Say 'Hello' to my son for me." he said, smiling. Scar smiled a little back, then ran into the light.
Whaddya think? Should I continue?
