CHAPTER II

It was another morning on the Pridelands as the sun's light was shining on Pride Rock.
Scar was just beginning to wake up.
He slowly opened his eyes lifted his head up before yawning.
Scar then began to stretch out his front legs when he felt something move.
He stopped before he turned around see his nephew Simba sleeping in his fur.

'Simba? what's he doing here?' Scar thought he was puzzled as to why Simba isn't with his father.

He hadn't had to wait long to find as Simba made a little groan before opening his eyes.

"Well good morning my dear nephew it's a surprise to see you here."

"Morning uncle Scar sorry my dad did come home last night and I had a nightmare so I decided to sleep with you."

"Oh well never mind I don't mind you sleeping here after all we're family."

'Something strange is going on' Scar thought as he began getting up.

Simba got up not long after.

"Well why don't we see if your friend Tojo is up."

"Okay."

They then walked down Pride Rock into the savannahs below.
Scar and Simba then reached a shaded area where Tojo and a lion with crater brown with a dark shade of nutmeg coloured fur with killarney coloured eyes were.

"Chengetedza! It's a surprise to see you."

"Well Scar you know I always want to look after my stepson."

"Hey Simba."

"Hey Tojo."

"Wanna go play?"

"Yeah why else would I be here."

"Simba always reminds me of myself all those years ago."

"Though he knows how to rush a lion off their feet sometimes."

"What cub doesn't?"

Tojo and Simba were playing tag not too far from where Scar and Chengetedza were.

"I'm gonna get you Simba."

"Not if you hurt yourself like last time!"

"Hey! that was one time okay?

Though they soon interrupted as a rustle from the buses as something or rather someone jumped into the air and tackled Simba.
As Simba ended up stuck on back as a little male cheetah a little bit older than Simba kept him down.

"Mind if I join?"

"You could at least ask in a more normal manner rather than jumping on me like this Mwepesi."

"Oh but that's all the fun."

Mwepesi then let Simba get back up.

"Oh well it'd be more fun with three rather than two."

"I hope Tojo doesn't ruin the game and hurt himself like last time."

"Why does everyone remind me about that!"

They then began playing tag again this time with Mwepesi

SOME HOURS LATER

Mufasa had returned from his talk with the wild dog pack leader and was now putting his plan in motion

'This plan is perfect! all I need to do is tell Simba about the elephant graveyard and the hyenas should do all the work for me without me lifting a paw!' Mufasa thought as he walked to an area where he saw Simba playing with his friends.

"Tag your it!"

"Hey! that's not fair you cheated!"

"I did not! it's not my fault I'm faster than you."

"You did cheat."

"Did not."

"Did too."

"Did not."

"Did too!"

"Well hello my son."

Simba turned around to se his father behind him.

"Oh hey dad what are you doing here."

"Oh I just needed to speak with my son alone."

"OK dad."

They then walked to a private area.

"Well I've just heard of this amazing place where all the bravest lions go to prove how brave they are."

"Wow really what is this place."

"It's called the elephant graveyard it's on the northern border."

"Woah"

"I'll let you go there if you promise not to tell anyone about it."
"No problem."

"That's a good lad now run along now and remember it's our little secret."

Simba then ran off.
He saw Nala and her mother and his mother luckily his mother was asleep.

"Hey Nala."

"Hi Simba."

"Come on I just heard about this great place."

"Simba I'm kind of in a middle of a bath."

"And it's time for yours."

At that moment Simba's mother picked him up and started giving him a bath.

"Mom!"

Simba then tried escaping to no avail.

"Your messing up my mane."

Simba's mother simply looked down at him and smiled.

"Okay okay I'm clean can we go now?"

"So where are we going? it better not be any place dumb."

"No it's really cool."

"So where is this really cool place."

"Oh uh around the water hole"

"The water hole? what's so great about the water hole?"

"I'll show you when we get there"

"Oh eh mom can I go with Simba?"

"Hmm what do you think Sarabi?"

"Well."

"Please?"

"It's alright with me."

"Yeah!"

"Alright."

"As long as Zazu goes with you."

"No not Zazu."

A LITTLE WHILE LATER

"Step lively the sooner we get to the watering hole the sooner we can leave."

"So where are we really going?"

"An elephant graveyard."

"Wow!"

"Shh! Zazu."

"Right so how we're gonna ditch the dodo."

Simba and Nala then saw a small group of wild dogs

"Oh I know the perfect way to do that"

As Simba then began walking towards the wild dogs.
Zazu then looked down and saw Simba getting closer to the wild dogs.
He then flew down and landed in front of Simba.

"What do think your doing?"

"What I'm just walking over this way"

"Do you know what those things even are"

Zazu then began trailing off as he walked backwards and bumped into one of then.

"*Growls* Hey watch it banana beak!"

"Who are you calling banana beak you slobbering brute!"

"Oh that's it your getting it big time!"

The wild dogs then began chasing Zazu as Simba and Nala quickly ran off before Zazu noticed.

"Oh yeah it worked."

"I am a genius."

"Hey genius it was my idea."

"Yeah but I pulled it off."

"With me!"

"Oh yeah?"

Simba then pounced on Nala as they tumbled forward though Nala would end up on top.

"Pinned ya."

"Hey! let me up!"

Simba then pounced on Nala again as they both tumbled down an edge though Nala would en up coming out on top again.

"Pinned ya again."

A hiss of steam from a vent soon grabbed their attention as they began walking to an old elephant tusk.

"This is it we made it."

they both looked out and saw the many remains of elephants.

"Woah."

"It's really creepy."

"Yeah isn't it great."

"We could get in big trouble."

"I know."

"I wonder if it's brains are still in there?"

"There's only one one way to find out come on let's go check it out."

At that moment Zazu flew in front of Simba landing in front of him.

'The only checking out you will do is to check out of here!"

"Oh man!"

"Were way beyond the boundary of the Pridelands."

"Look banana beak is scared."

"That's mister banana beak to you fuzzy! And right now we are all in very real danger."

"Danger? ha! I look on the wild side I laugh at the face of danger ha ha ha ha ha!"

Just then a storm of laughter was heard from the elephant remains as three hyenas appeared.

"Well well well Banzai what have we got here?"

"Hmm I don't know Shenzi what do you think Ed?"

The only thing Ed said was a jumble of sounds and laughter.

"Yeah just was I was thinking a trio of trespassers!"

"And quite by accident let me assure you a simple navigational error."

Zazu was quickly stopped by Shenzi's paw as she recognized who he was.

"Woah woah woah woah wait wait I know you you're Mufasa's little stooge."

"I madam am the king's majordomo."

"And that would make you."

"The future king!"
"Do you know what we to do kings who step out of their kingdom?"

"Puh you can't do anything to me!"

"Ah technically they can we are on their land."

"But Zazu you told me they're nothing but slobbery mangy stupid poachers."

"Ix-nay on the upid-stay."

"Who are calling upid stay!"

"My my my look at the sun it's time to go!"

"What's the hurry? We'd you to stick around for dinner."

"Yeah we could have whatever's lion around."

Zazu Simba and Nala had quickly ran off when the hyenas got distracted with their jokes.

"Wait wait wait I got one I got one make mine a "cub" sandwich what do you think?"

Ed then started jumping and speaking his usual nonsense.

"What, Ed? What is it?"

"Hey did we order this dinner to go?"

"No why?"

"Cause there it goes!"

Zazu was flying away from the hyenas until a hyena paw grabbed him by the tail feathers.
Meanwhile Simba and Nala had ran further on.

"Did we lose them?"

"I think so but where's Zazu?"

Of course the hyenas had Zazu and playing a little game with him.

"The little majordomo bird hippety hopped all the way to the birdie boiler."

"Oh no not the birdie boiler!"

No sooner had Zazu said that the geyser shot him off into sky like a rocket.
This sent the hyenas into a fit of laughter.

"Hey! why don't you pick on somebody your own size"

"Like you?"

"Oops."

Simba and Nala then started running again as the hyenas gave chase.

They soon reached a hill covered in bones.
As Simba reached the topped he heard a voice.

"Simba!"

He looked down to see Nala slipping down towards the hyenas
He raced down the hill and scratched Shenzi in the face as Nala and Simba went up the hill they went through an entrance and climbed up a elephant body. They were trying to get up a cliff before falling through and landing at the bottom of the elephant remains.
The hyenas soon started approaching them.

"Here kitty kitty kitty."

Simba did his best to try to roar but of course being only 4 months old he couldn't roar that well.

"Ha ha That was it? ha ha ha do it again come on."

As Simba "roared" again the sound of an adult lions roar sounded taking the hyenas by surprise as a lion whacked all three with his paw and started fighting. them.
Of course this wasn't just any lion it was Simba's uncle Scar.
Zazu then flew in and landed next to Simba and Nala.
Scar had soon had the hyenas down.
A mutter of pleases and ows were soon silenced when Scar spoke

"SILENCE!"

"Oh come on were gonna shut up right now."

"Calm down were really sorry."

"If you ever come near my nephew again I'll make sure to rip your damn heads off."

"Oh this is- this is your nephew?"

"Oh yours?"

"Did you know that?"

"No! me? I didn't know no did you?"

"No of course not!"

"No."

"Ed?"

All Ed did was nod as Scar roared in anger.

"Heheh toodles!"

The hyenas then sped off and away as fast as lightning.
As Zazu lands next to Scar nodding before receiving a glare as Simba and Nala walked up to Scar.

"Uncle Scar I-"

"What were you thinking?"

"I'm sorry Uncle."

"Let's go home."

As they went home Nala said something to Simba.

"I thought you were really brave."

SOME TIME LATER

"Zazu!"

"Yes Scar?"

"Take Nala home I've got to teach my nephew a lesson"

"Come Nala, Simba *Sighs* good luck."

Simba then watched Zazu and Nala walk away as his uncle's voiced soon boomed.

"Simba!"

Simba then walked slowly up to his uncle
He knew what would happen if he got in trouble he thought of those times his father punished him and leave him in pain for days or even weeks.
He was afraid of what his uncle would do.
He stood in one of his paw prints he saw how big it was compared to his paw.
He went around it and walked up to his uncle.
He then sat down preparing for the worst.
Nothing happened.
He looked up to see his uncle staring down at him.

"Simba I'm very disappointed with you."

"I know."

"You could of been killed and what's worse you put Nala in danger."

The fear Simba's eyes showed as he simply cowered down waiting for the worst

"Simba?"

"Don't hurt me I'm sorry."

Scar was surprised with how he reacted.

'Why would he be like this?' Scar thought then it came to him.

Mufasa was doing more than just punishing him.

"Simba I'm not going to hurt you."

Scar then put a paw on Simba's back as he flinched and moved away slightly.

"Simba what has your dad been doing to you?"

Simba said nothing He just laid there covering his face and crying and shaking in fear.

"Simba please tell me I'm worried about this behaviour, It's okay to tell me it's just you and me here."

"M-my dad hurts me."

Scar just sat there in shock.
Not only Mufasa neglects his own son but he is abusing him too

'What kind of sick minded father does this to their own child' Scar thought

"Did he tell you about the graveyard?

"Yes"

"I was just trying to be brave like you he said that all the lions go there to become brave."

"I'm only brave when have to be my dear nephew."

"Being brave doesn't mean you go looking for trouble."

"But your not scared of anything."

"I was today."

"You were?"

"Yes I thought I'd might lose you."

"Oh I guess even you get scared huh?"

"Oh yes."

"But you know what?"

"What?"

"I think those hyenas were even scareder."

"*Chuckles* Cause no one messes with the former leader of the lion guard!"

Scar then pick Simba up and gave up a noogy.

"Come here you."

"Oh no."

Simba then got out of the noogy and pounced on him the started chasing and playing with each other.
They both ended up on the ground as Simba tugged on Scar's ear
Simba then stopped and laid on top of Scar's mane

"Uncle Scar?"

"Hmm?"

"We're pals right?"

"Heh yeah."

"And we'll always be together right?"

"Simba Let me tell you something my mother told me."

"Look at the stars, The great kings and leaders of the past. Look down on us from those stars."

"Really?"

"Yes so whenever you feel alone just remember. That those kings will always be there to guide you and so will I."

END OF CHAPTER II

Damn this chapter took longer to write that i expected it's about double the size of the first chapter certainly the biggest chapter i've written don't expect these big chapters very often though it drains my energy You may of noticed one of the OCs featured seems to resemble a certain TLK II Character that might just be his father. hope you guys liked it and remember criticism is welcome and will help me improve my work.
