A/N The usual thanks to my wonderful readers, reviewers, and alerters out there. I'm going to once again address the age issue here: I realized I made an error in Nuka's age. I didn't even think about it until someone pointed it out. Nuka's supposed to be older than Kopa, whose 1 year old (18 years old) So really Nuka would be a year and a half roughly (20 years old) so I guess he is quite a bit older than Fuli lol. My bad. But I say just ignore the age issue because it really doesn't make a difference to my story. Also in this story Vitani and Kovu are twins so they're the same age. And the my Guest reviewer: Scar just may contact Zira but you'll have to wait and see. Also Kion's still alive he's just possessed by Scar. And to my other Guest reviewer: Kion is supposed to be the main character in this story. Also I've had the idea of Kion getting possessed by Scar for awhile now and finally decided to use the idea. Here's ch 14 for ya and the usual disclaimer applies. Enjoy.

Ch 14 The Return of Scar

Vitani dung her claws into the side of the gorge to prevent herself from falling all the way down. "Not good," she panted, looking down. "Really not good," she grunted as she began to pull herself up the side. After reaching the top Vitani caught her breath. "Kopa!" she cried, jumping to her feet. "Scar's gonna kill Kopa! I've gotta to stop him!" With those words Vitani ran, full force back towards Pride Rock, hoping she wouldn't be to late.

TLKTLKTLK

Kion/Scar reached the top of Pride Rock and entered the cave, walking towards the unsuspecting Prince. But suddenly a though occurred to him: "I can't dispose of Kopa now," he thought as he looked around. He saw not only the rest of the Pride there but Simba and Nala were there as well, talking with Kopa. "I'll just have to wait," he thought. "Once Kopa's able to walk then I'll lure him into a trap. Oh yes he'll never see it coming. Just like Mufasa." Kion/Scar let out a slight laugh when he thought this. But he was abruptly taken out of his thought by Bunga popping up in front of him.

"Hey Kion how are ya?" the honey badger asked, climbing on Kion/Scar's head. "Did ya have a nice walk?

"Why are you speaking to me like I'm a child?" Kion/Scar said, rolling his amber eyes.

"Sorry," Bunga said. "I didn't mean to.."

"Oh get off of me you idiot," Kion/Scar said, shaking his head, causing Bunga to fall roughly to the ground.

"Hey!" Bunga cried as he stood, rubbing his backside. "What gives?"

"Oh go away you," Kion/Scar said with annoyance. "I need to talk to Si..I mean my father."

"Hey what's with you?" Bunga asked, getting in front of Kion/Scar. "You're actin' all weird."

"Oh don't bother me," Kion/Scar snapped, shoving Bunga out of the way.

"What the heck is goin' on with him?" Bunga muttered, scratching his head in confusion.

"I think that's the question of the day," Fuli said, stepping up beside her honey badger friend.

"And we haven't even told him about Beshte yet," Ono said, keeping his voice low. The rest of the group just nodded sadly but said nothing as they watched their friend approach Simba.

"Kion you're back," Simba said, approaching his son with Nala and Kiara right behind him.

"Kion!" Kiara cried out, head bumping her younger brother. "Are you ok?"

"Why wouldn't I be?" Kion/Scar asked, trying his best not to sound annoyed.

"Well I just thought," Kiara began. "That..well...you know with everything that's happened..."

"Silly girl," Kion/Scar said with a smile. "I told you before: I don't care about losing that silly Roar."

"Yeah but now with Beshte dying," Kiara began. Simba shot his daughter a look and she put her paw over her mouth.

"Beshte's dead!?" Kion cried out, sounding more like himself than Scar.

"Yeah it just happened," Kiara said, lowering her eyes sadly. "Reire and her jackals attacked us. And Beshte didn't make it."

"So the jackals are working with Zira are they?" Kion said, his voice low. "We'll see about that." With that Kion/Scar turned and began to exit the cave.

"Hold it Kion," Simba said, putting his paw on his youngest son's tail, preventing him from moving. "You're not going anywhere until we talk." A flash of fire appeared in Kion/Scar's eyes and he turned his head towards Simba.

"Don't ever do that again," he hissed, his voice almost sounding demonic. Simba's amber eyes went wide and he lifted his paw off Kion's tail.

"Kion!" Nala gasped, her blue eyes wide. "What's happened to you?"

"Nothing Na..I mean Mother," Kion/Scar said. "I'm just upset. You about Beshte dying and all. I really need to take a walk if that's alright." Kion/Scar thought to himself: "I had better watch my tone. Can't have any of them suspecting anything."

"Alright Kion if that's what you need," Simba said, giving Kion a strange look.

"Want some company?" Bunga asked.

"Not really," Kion/Scar said. "I just need some time alone." Then he forced himself to add. "Please."

"Well ok if you're sure Ky," Ono said.

"Thank you," Kion/Scar said, trying not to sound forced as he exited the cave. Everyone just sat in stunned silence for a few minutes, trying to process what just happened. Before anyone could say anything Vitani came running into the cave.

"Where is he?!" Vitani cried out.

"Where's who dear?" Kurya asked, looking at her daughter.

"S..I mean Kion," Vitani said, not quite sure if she should tell the group what she had learned.

"He just left," Simba informed his youngest son's girlfriend. "And I must say I'm worried about him. Did he happen to say anything to you while you were walking?"

"Oh he said a lot," Vitani declared. Then she looked at the group, who were all waiting for her to say more. "Uh you know he's just super stressed out," Vitani said, deciding it was better not to tell the group about Kion's possession just yet. "What with the big fight he and Kopa had and all."

"So that gives him the right to act like a jerk?" Kopa said suddenly, causing everyone to look at him. "Well its true," the oldest Prince said. "Kion's acting like a world class jerk. I mean yeah maybe I was a little mean to him but I mean come on he kind of had it coming don't you think?"

"So wait you're not even sorry for what you said?" Fuli asked, glaring at Kopa. "Even though you told Kion you were?"

"I feel bad that I hurt his feelings," Kopa said. "But no I'm not sorry for what I said. I know I said I was but after what Kion just did as far as I'm concerned he is acting just like Scar."

"What?!" Simba cried out, outraged at what his oldest son had just said. "You told Kion he's acting like Scar?!" the King demanded.

"Crap," Kopa muttered, realizing his mistake. But he also realized it was to late to take it back. "Uh yeah I did," Kopa admitted, not making eye contact.

"Oh Kopa how could you say such a hurtful thing?" Nala asked, shaking her head.

"Well when you think about it its kind of true," Kopa pointed out. "I mean especially with the way he just acted."

"Kopa," Simba began, trying his best not to lose his temper. "Did it ever occur to you that Kion's only acting this way because of what you said to him? Think about it: he's been through a lot these last couple of weeks. You came back from the dead, he lost his Roar.."

"He's been feeling super jealous," Fuli put in. Everyone turned and looked at the young cheetah when she said this part "Yeah Kion's been trying to talk to Kopa about his feeling for a while," Fuli informed the group.

"Fuli it really isn't our place," Ono began.

"They need to know," Fuli insisted. Ono nodded and Fuli continued, "Anyways Kion was already feeling bad about the way he'd been acting. He was gonna talk to Kopa about it so there wouldn't be any hard feelings."

"Yeah he was afraid you guys would end up like King Mufasa and Scar did," Nuka put in.

"Then you had to go and say he was like Scar!" Kiara chimed in, glaring at her older brother. "No wonder he's been acting strange."

"I.." Kopa began, unsure how to continue.

"Oh forget it!" Kiara shouted, her amber eyes stormy. "I'm gonna find my brother!" With that Kiara turned and began to walk out the cave.

"No!" Kopa shouted as he stood, ignoring the pain in his side as he did so. "I'll look for Kion."

"Kopa you're still hurt," Nala reminded her oldest son.

"I know Mom," Kopa said, rolling his blue eyes. "But Kion is more important. And while I'm still pretty pissed off at him I still don't want the kid to be miserable."

"Well then I'm coming too," Simba insisted, looking at Nala, who nodded in agreement.

"Lets do this," Kopa said, a determined look on his face.

"No!" Vitani shouted suddenly, causing everyone to look at her. "Kopa you can't go!"

"Vitani what..." Kurya began.

"If you go he'll kill you for sure!" Vitani shouted, getting in front of Kopa, blocking his path.

"Who will?" Kopa asked, looking at the younger cub. "Kion?"

"Yes," Vitani said. "I mean no. Kion won't kill you. He'd never do that. But he would."

"Tani who's he?" Nuka asked, looking at his younger sister.

"Scar," Vitani cried out. "Scar will kill you! Scar's in Kion's body!"
