CHAPTER III


'I can't believe it the plan failed!, My brother of mine foiling it.' Mufasa thought with clenched teeth as he paced between some rocks,'I'll have to think of something better if I want to get rid of him and my son' Then an idea came to his mid as his eyes opened wide,'Yes that's it, Oh it's simply perfect, I'll have to tell Chaji about this right away,' He thought as he smirked 'My dear brother won't be prepared for this!'

He ran off to tell Chaji the plan.

SOME TIME LATER AT PRIDE ROCK


It was another morning in the Pridelands
Scar had let Simba sleep with him after he heard about what Mufasa did to Simba.
Scar and Simba were in the shade of a tree talking.

"You know I saved a few animals in my lion guard days, Some more than others cause they never learnt to stay out of trouble. There used to be a leopard who'd always annoy the crocodiles had to save him every time."

"I guess some animals don't learn do they?"

"Oh he never did but his father moved up north and that was the last i heard of him, Although there was a lioness that stuck out to me."

"Really?"

"Oh yes she was a rogue who lived out on her own saved her from a group of ten hyenas with barely a scratch."

"Woah."

"I remember her saying how brave I am it was the only time i ever saw her though, I remember her saying she won't forget this and she'll figure out a way to repay me."

"Wow you're so cool Uncle Scar you've always got the best stories to tell."

"Well when you've been in as much adventures as me you tend to get a lot of stories."

Just then Mufasa turned up

"Well good morning you two."

"Morning dad Uncle Scar was telling me some great stories."

"Oh he did? That's nice."

"I need to talk to you in private Simba."

"Okay Dad."

Mufasa took Simba to a gorge where they spoke privately.

"Why are we at this gorge dad?"

"Well your uncle has a surprise for you."

"What is it?"

"It wouldn't be a surprise if I told you."

"If you tell me I'll still act surprised."

"Oh you're such a such a naughty boy."

"Come on dad."

"No this is just for you and your uncle.'

"I'll go with you."

"No just stay on this rock."

"You wouldn't want to end up in another mess like you did with the hyenas."

"You know about that?"

"My son everybody knows about that."

"Really?"

"Yes lucky your uncle was there to save you"

"And just between us, you might want to work on that little roar of yours. Hmm?"

"Okay"

As Mufasa turned away and started to walk away Simba said something.

"Will I like the surprise?"

"My son it's to die for!"

Mufasa walked away.

"Little roar Puh"

Simba saw a lizard walk onto the rock.|
Remembering what his father said he "roared" at it.
The lizard carried on.
He "roared" again this time louder.
The lizard still carried on.
Simba then took a deep breath and "roared" as loudly as he could.
The noise echoed everywhere and the lizard ran off in surprise.
He was pleased with the result.
Then the ground started vibrating.
Simba looked down as pebbles were bouncing up and down.
He looked up and saw a stampede coming down the hill heading straight towards him.
He stood in complete shock before quickly running away from the tsunami of wildebeest.
As the wildebeest were coming down the hill a group of wild dogs looked down at the stampede they caused.
As Simba continues running through the gorge.
Meanwhile nearby the gorge Scar and Zazu were near some rocks. when Zazu noticed something.

"Oh look the herd is on the move."

"Odd."

Just then Mufasa ran up looking scared.

"Scar quick stampede in the gorge Simba's down there!"

"Simba?"

Back in the gorge the stampede had caught up to Simba
He saw an old dead tree and climbed up it as Scar, Zazu and Mufasa raced to the gorge.
Zazu was the first to arrive as he flew into the gorge looking around for Simba.
He soon saw him as he flew next to him.

"Zazu help me!"

"Your uncle is on the way hold on!"

"Hurry!"

As Mufasa and Scar arrived at the gorge Zazu flew up next to them.

"There! There! On that tree!"

"Hold on Simba!"

A wildebeest then hit the tree as tree nearly broke.
As Simba cried out Scar wasted no more time and jumped down into the gorge

"Sire this is awful! What do we do! What do we do!"

"Ah I'll go back for help! that's what I'll do I'll go back for-"

"Shut it you irritating bug!"

Mufasa while saying that whacked Zazu out of the sky as he hit a rock side and fell down unconscious.
Scar had made it to where Simba was as he slid under a wildebeest and ran towards the tree
A wildebeest then knocked him down as he then looked as a wildebeest hit the tree as it broke sending Simba flying into the air screaming.
He got up and jumped up and caught Simba before he landed in the stampede
As Scar was running in the stampede Mufasa watched from above.
A wildebeest the hit Scar as he roared Simba got whacked out of his jaws and into the stampede with a tumble.
Scar quickly picked up Simba and carried on as a wildebeest fell over behind them.
Scar jumped on a ledge and placed Simba down on it.
No sooner had he done that he was swept away by the stampede as he disappeared into it.
Simba looked down eyes darting side to side through the stampede.
Scar jumped out of the stampede landing on a rocky slope.
He climbed up it slipping and fumbling along the way.
Simba moved to a higher rock to see better.
Scar reached the top and looked up to see his brother Mufasa looking down at him.

"Mufasa!"

"Brother!"

"Help me!"

Mufasa just stared before digging his claws straight into Scar's paws.
Scar roared in pain as his brother leaned in and smirked.
They were both face to face.

"So this is how the ex-leader of the lion guard goes out killed by his own brother. Too bad no one will be here to enjoy it but me." Mufasa chuckled before saying one more thing to Scar.
"Good riddance little brother!"

Mufasa threw Scar into the stampede below.
As Scar screamed as he fell into the stampede Simba cried out completely frozen still.
The last the wildebeest ran off into the clouds of dust.
Simba who had ran down into the gorge by this point.
As the final wildebeest passed him as it revealed Scar.
Simba ran over to where Scar laid.
From what Simba saw he didn't move.
Simba ran around to his face.
Not a single movement or sound was heard or seen from Scar.
Simba could see the injuries Scar sustained in the stampede as he got closer to Scar's face.

"Uncle Scar?"

No response came from Scar

"Come on uncle."

Simba then began nudging Scar's face.

"You gotta get up."

Scar's head just flopped back down.

"Uncle Scar.'

Simba began pressing his paws into Scar's mane

"We gotta go home."

Simba then began tugging on Scar's ear.

No matter what he did there was no response from Scar.

Then a sudden realization hit Simba.
He was alone.
He looked around.

"Help!"

He began running a little bit forward.

"Somebody!"

"Anybody."

Tears began forming in Simba's eye's.

"Help."

Simba then started crying
He turned and looked at his uncle and began walking towards him.
He then went underneath his paw and laid down in his fur.
A figure then appeared from the dust.

"Simba."

Simba looked up to see his father looking down at him.

"What have you done?"

Simba quickly got up.

"There were wildebeests and he tried to save me it was an accident, I... I didn't mean for it to happen."
"Oh of course you didn't"

Mufasa then pulled Simba closer to him.

"No one ever means for these things to happen."
"But you uncle is dead."

Simba looked up as a tear fell down his face.

"And if it weren't for you, he'd still be alive."

Simba moved his head down as another tear fell down his face.

"Oh what will your mother think?"

"What am I gonna do?"

"Run away Simba"

As Simba backed away quickly from Mufasa.

"Run, run away and never return"

Simba looked at Mufasa before turning around and running away
As three wild dogs appeared behind Mufasa he smiled.

"Kill him."

And the wild dogs soon chased after Simba.
Simba reached a dead end and heard something he then turned around saw the wild dogs approaching.
He soon went through a tiny crevice and stopped at a cliff edge.
The wild dogs were soon catching up.
With no other choice he jumped as he tumbled down and landed in a bunch of thorny bushes

"Well aren't we going after him?"

"There's thorns at the bottom of this cliff."

"Anyway he's dead out there."

"If he comes back he'll die."

MEANWHILE IN THE GORGE


Mufasa was standing looking over his brother.

'I finally got rid of him.' Mufasa thought.

Until then noticed his eyes open and his body beginning to move.

'Damn it!' Mufasa thought.

Luckily some wild dogs had turned up

"Well well well looks like my little brother is stronger than I thought."

"What the hell did you do to to Simba."

"Oh I just sent him away permanently."

"You bastard! I'll kill you for this!"

"Oh i wouldn't be so hasty in doing that."

As wild dogs soon surrounded Scar growling.

"You see I have the upper paw here Scar, So here's what I'll do since i've already given you pain and death simply wouldn't do for you."

He paused before continuing.

"Run away from here and don't come back or you'll really die."

Scar got up and began walking before stopping and turning his head around.

"This isn't over Mufasa."

Scar then turned his head forward and walked out of the pridelands and into the desert.

Mufasa smirked as he disappeared into the dust clouds

"Oh it already is."

Mufasa Walked away back to Pride Rock.
