I don't own Kingdom Hearts or Frozen. They belong to Disney and Square Enix. Alright... time for the big battle scene. But before we begin, let's reply to some reviews...
ajjar12: That's right! :)
Glenn: Glad you enjoyed them and it all really depends if you count the prologue. If you do, then yes, this would be the 100th chapter, if not it's then next one which is the conclusion to the Pride Lands. Either way, I hope you enjoy the battle!
Leafeon12: Well... here it is! I hope you enjoy it!
Mickol93: Thank you! But... Neither Simba nor Nala will be joining the two think of another two charaters from the Lion King that always stick together... They even have a movie together that takes place before and during the first one...
Dexter: That's right! :D
God of the Challenge: 1. Yes, but I'm actually saving it for another part of the story... How could I not include it?!
2. Maybe but like the hula scene it'll appear later on in the story... trust me... you'll know when...
3. I'm glad you enjoyed it... I felt like it would be a missed opportunity if I didn't do it.
Alright with that outta the way... Let's get's get started...
Chapter 99: The Truth
Simba managed to sneak the Avengers past the hyenas. Once they were close enough, Simba whispered to the others, "Nala, you find my mother and rally the lionesses. The rest of us will look for Scar." Nala nodded and left to do so as the rest followed made their way up Pride Rock. Scar called his mother causes him to pause and watch, "SARABI!"
"I take it that's your mother?" Sora asked. Sim a nodded as they continued to watch. Sarabi ascends Pride Rock. The hyenas snap at her heels. She only glares disdainfully at them. She asked, "Yes, Scar?"
"Where is your hunting party? They're not doing their job." He demanded. She replied camly, "Scar, there is no food. The herds have moved on."
"No. You're just not looking hard enough." Scar argued. Sarabi told him, "It's over. There is nothing left. We have only one choice. We must leave Pride Rock."
"We're not going anywhere." Scar replied being stubborn. The former Queen then said, "Then you have sentenced us to death."
"Then so be it." Scar declared. She was disgusted by this, "You can't do that."
"I'm the king. I can do whatever I want." Scar argued. Sarabi replied, "If you were half the king Mufasa was you would nev..."
"I'm ten times the king Mufasa was!" Scar exclaimed as he hits Sarabi, knocking her to the ground. Simba appears on the ledge, growling loudly. He leaps out and runs to his mother as the Avengers followed him. Scar mistakes Simba as Mufasa and is understandably frightened, ""Mufasa? No. You're dead."
Sarabi awakens at her son's nudge, but mistakes him as Mufasa as Scar did, "Mufasa?" He shook his head, "No. It's me."
"Simba? You're alive?" His mother was both relived and happy that he was alive but then was confused, "How can that be?" Simba hugged his mother as he replied, "It doesn't matter. I'm home."
"Simba...?" Scar asked in shock but then went back in form, "Simba! I'm a little surprised to see you..." As giving the hyenas above him an angry look he finished, "alive..." On the word "alive," Shenzi, Banzai, and Ed gulp audibly and slink into the shadows as they were the ones to make sure he was killed.
"Give me one good reason why I shouldn't rip you apart." Simba's eyes narrowed was he walked his way to his Uncle. Scar then backed into a wall acting apologetically, "Oh, Simba, you must understand. The pressures of ruling a kingdom..."
"...Are no longer yours. Step down, Scar." Simba cut him off. Scar smirked, "Oh, oh, ye... Well, I would, heh, naturally, heh... however, there is one little problem. You see them?" He pointing to the horde of hyenas and Heartless on the rocks above, "They think I'M king."
"Well, we don't!" Sora stated as Nala appears with the rest of the lionesses alongside the Avengers. Nala nodded as she help Sarabi up, "Simba is the rightful king."
"The choice is yours, Scar. Either step down or fight." Sim a told him. Scar replied, "Oh, must it all end in violence? I'd hate to be responsible for the death of a family member. Wouldn't you agree, Simba?"
"That's not gonna work, Scar. I've put it behind me." Simba told him as he stood his ground. Scar then turned to Simba's allies, "Eh, but what about your faithful subjects? Have they put it behind them?"
"Simba, what is he talking about?" Nala asked clearly confused. Scar was delighted by this, "Ah, so you haven't told them your little secret. Well, Simba, now's your chance to tell them. Tell them who is responsible for Mufasa's death!"
Scar's last line causes the lionesses to start. All are concentrating on Simba. Steeling himself, then taking a step forward before confessing, "I am." Everyone was shocked by this Anna turned to Sora, "Did you know about this?"
Sora nodded, "Yes, but it was an accident... Or it was made to look like one..." Sora gestured to Scar as hey eyes narrowed as she knew what he meant. Cap whispered, "Kannan, Ezra... Be ready to help Simba if need.." The Jedi nodded as Sarabi approached her son not believing it for a bit, "It's not true. Tell me it's not true."
"It's true." Simba replied with regret. Scar then walked up to him, "You see! He admits it! Murderer!" Lightning crashes behind Scar's head to punctuate as Simba replied, "No. It was an accident." Scar walks around and around Simba as he accuses him, "If it weren't for you, Mufasa would still be alive. It's your fault he's dead. Do you deny it?"
"No." Simba shook his head. Scar then told him, "Then... you're... guilty."
"No. I'm not a murderer." Simba argued. Scar then had been backing Simba up the length of Pride Rock, "Oh, Simba, you're in trouble again. But this time, Daddy isn't here to save you. And now EVERYONE.. KNOWS... WHY!"
After his last sentence, Simba slips over the edge and is clinging to the ledge by his forepaws. Nala called out to him, "Simba!" Lightning strikes below, igniting a fire. Everyone turned to Thor, who shrugged, "Don't look at me... I'm not responsible for every thunder storm." Scar sits back and pretends to think, "Now this looks familiar. Hmm. Where have I seen this before? Let me think. Hmmm... hmmm. Oh yes, I remember. This is just the way your father looked before he died." Scar grabs Simba with his claws as he did Mufasa. He whispers into Simba's ear, "And here's MY little secret: I killed Mufasa."
Simba has a quick memory flash back to that fateful instant. His voice blends with his younger voice in the scream of when his father died. Cap ordered, "Now!" Kannan and Ezra used the force on Simba's making him do one giant leap he lunges up and pins Scar on his back. Scar is caught completely by surprise and suddenly very nervous and shaken, "NoooooOOOO! ...Murderer!"
"No, Simba, please." Scar begged. Simba ordered, "Tell them the truth."
"Truth? But truth is in the eye of the behold..." Simba starts to choke Scar, "All right. All right!" He then admitted quietly, "I did it."
"So they can hear you." Simba's eyes narrowed. Scar then admitted for everyone to hear, "I killed Mufasa!" The lioness eyes widened in horror. The hyenas and Heartless then charge in to defend their king knocking Simba back. Kannan eyes narrowed, "Alright then... AVENGERS ASSEMBLE!" The Avengers then vegan to fight off both the hyenas and the Heartless and the lionesses join in. Just then Pumbaa and Timon come in. Pumbaa is charging with Timon riding him, "Heeeyyyy-yaaaaah!"
Hyenas are flying everywhere as Timon commented, "'Scuse me. Pardon me. Comin' through. Hot stuff. Whoo!" Timon and Pumbaa's eyes narrowes as the both joined the battle. Cap threw his sheild knocking the Heartless away while Groot defend him from the hyena's, "I am Groot!"
Meanwhile, the Hyena's back Simba to a corner as he tired to fight then off they was beginning to be to many until Rafiki whacks a hyena off Simba. He then charged with a battle scream, he joins the fray. Rafiki is fighting in kung-fu "B-movie" style, complete with cheesy sound effects. Ron beamed, "Man, I never thought I'd say this... but that monkey is awesome!"
"Boo-yah!" Rufus commented. The battle continued as the Heartless were being destroyed and the Hyenas defeated. However, Timon running from Shenzi. He runs into the cave. Zazu spots him as he was locked in a bone dhange for Scar's entertainment, "Let me out! Let me out!"
"Let me in! Let me in!" Timon runs into his cage for safety from the hyenas. The licked their lips as Timon pleaded, "...Ple-he-hease don't eat me."
Pumbaa appears at the cave's entrance getting everyones attention, "Problem?" Banzai wondered, "Hey, who's the pig?"
"Are you talking to me?" Pumbaa asked. Timon's eyes widened, "Uh oh. They called him a pig."
"Are you talking to me?!" He repeated louder. Timon told them, "Shouldn't 'a done that."
"ARE YOU TALKING TO ME?!" Pumbaa exclaimed. Timon told them, "Now they're in for it."
"They CALL me... MISTER PIG! AAAAAHHH..." Pumbaa charges at the hyenas as their eyes widened in horror. From outside a big crash could be heard in the cave. Timon told them, "Take that! And that!"
"Take that! And that! You yellow belly..." Pumbaa told them as Zazu added, "Take that, you stupid..." With that the hyenas began to retreat. Timon, Pumbaa, and Zazu walked out of the cave cheering. They start the Arsenio Hall "Ooh, ooh" chant. As Sora cut down another Heartless, he saw Simba chasing Scar up to the high point of Pride Rock. Sora told them, "Scar's trying to get away!"
"We can take it from here! Go help Simba!" Nala told them. Sora nodded as he and the rest of the Avengers began following the two lions...
Scar runs up to the edge and sees the sheer drop. Simba leaps up to confront him at the cliff-like edge. Scar is very apprehensive, seeing he is cornered and at Simba's mercy, "Murderer..."
"Simba, Simba. Please. Please have mercy. I beg you." Scar pleaded. Simba's eyes narrowed, "You don't deserve to live."
"But, Simba, I am... ah... family." Scar tried to tell him. He then accused, "It's Xehanort and the hyenas who are the real enemy. It was their fault.. it was their idea!"
Shenzi, Banzai, and Ed are in the background. They overhear and back away growling at Scar's betrayal. However, Simba didn't believe him for a bit, "Why should I believe you? Everything you ever told me was a lie."
"What are you going to do? You wouldn't kill your own Uncle...?" He asked. Simba shook his head, "No, Scar. I'm not like you."
"Oh, Simba, thank you. You are truly noble. I'll make it up to you, I promise. How can I, ah, prove myself to you? Tell me; I mean, anything." Scar smiled. Simba told him gravely, with deep anger, "Run." Scar's eyes widened with horror as Simba continued, "Run away, Scar. And never return."
"Yes. Of course. As you wish..." he replied as he looking down and seeing a pile of hot coals, "...your Majesty!" Scar swipes the coals into Simba's face. With a cry of surprise and pain, Simba paws the coals away as Scar leaps and attacks. The Avengers ran up to the Peak, and find Simba and Scar circling each other. Donald called out, "Simba!"
Before anyone could leap in to help, Sora stops them, "This is his fight, Donald. This is what Rafiki meant. All we need to to is prevent Scar from trying to escape."
Simba claws at Scar, and Scar claws back, knocking Simba away. Scar makes to pounce on Simba, but he lifts his legs, and tosses him over the edge of Pride Rock. Sora walked up to him, "Is it over?" Simba smiled and nodded until Pete and the Beagle Boys walking in, "Aw, that was just a sneak preview! 'Cause this ain't over-not by a long shot!"
Pete points to the edge, where a claw rises up as Pete explained, "Anger and jealousy turned the king of Pride Rock into a Heartless!" A dark version of Scar appeared as Scar's body walked up next to it as the Beagle Boys' added, "And whenever as Heartless is born... a Nobody is also born."
"Oh, your kingdom's gonna rise again... But this time, as the Pride Lands of Darkness!" Pete told them as Sacr's Heartless and Nobody roared. Simba's eyes narrowed, "That's what you think!" Cap ordered, "AVENGERS ASSEMBLE!"
Both Simba and the Avengers began to fight the Heartless and Nobody of Scar. Rocket tired shoot Scar but his newly found speed dodge his gun fire. Pete laughed, "Let's give them a hand, boys!" The Beagle Boys laughed as the reached for their swords by only to find the couldn't grab them... the didn't have any hands, "Uh... Captain Pete... we don't have any hands... and we never fought with this form before."
Pete's eyes widened as he realized the the heroes had, and they be creamed by them if they tried anything. Pete then muttered, "On second thought... I think Scar can handle them by himself... or is it themselves now? Ah, who cares?! Let's just get out of here!" The four villains the vanished in a corridor of darkness. Thor threw his hammer at Scar's Heartless knocking him down. Cap and Herc then slammed into him as Riku slashed at him destroying the Heartless.
Scar's body tried to avenge himself by Sabine tackled Scar as Riku smiled, "Thanks!" Sabine nodded as Kannan and Ezra forced pushed him as Sabine slashed at him. Groot then knocked Scar to the the ground as Mulan and Jack slashed their swords at him. Kairi then hit Scar to Sora who slashed at Scar's nobody with his Keyblade. Scar tried to stay intact until Iron Man raised a paw firing a repulser at him knocking over pride rock as he appeared to fade away. Simba signed, "Now... it's over..."
"Uh... guys... Scar's alive." Iron Man replied. Anna asked, "His Nobody or his Heartless..." Iron Man replied, "I mean the real deal... look!" Everyone to below and saw that Scar had be reformed in his regular self, Iron Man explained, "Apparently, when we destroyed his Heartless and Nobody... it brings back the real deal..."
"Huh? I guess, we've been saving lives in more ways than one... so what do you want to do with Scar?" Kristoff asked Simba. He replied, "I told Scar he was banished from the Pride Lands... maybe this time he'll listen..."
"Hopefully history won't repeat... like in the past." Anna signed. Sora replied, "Simba did the right thing... killing Scar won't bring back his father... just like killing Xehanort won't bring back all the people he's murdered including our parents..."
Anna nodded as they noticed he was weakly gets up. He looks up to sees Banzai, Shenzi, and Ed approaching and smiles, "Ahh, my friends." Ed has a very angry look on his face as Shenzi laughed, "Frie-he-hends? I thought he said we were the enemy!"
"Yeah, that's what I heard." Banzai laughed. They turned to Ed as they both asked, "Ed?" He laughs evilly as he licked his lips as Scar's eyes widened in horror as more hyenas Heartless surrounded him, "No. L-L-L-Le-Le-Le-Le-Let me explain. No. You don't understand. No! I didn't mean for... No, No! Look, I m sorry I called you... No! NOOOOOOOOO!"
Everyone looked away as from the shadows as the horde of hyenas closes on and devours Scar as the flames consumed them. Sora then stated, "We've got to stop that fire.. Thor can you make a storm to put out the flames?"
"You only need to asked. Consider it done."" Thor told him as he picked up his hammer and summoned a storm and the rain put out the flames... the battle was finally over...
Well, here's a good place to end the chapter... Yeah, I included the whole death of Scar... I know why the alterate it in KH2 because it was too dark but I included it here since it's rated T. So... well anyways, I hope you enjoy the battle. Alright... next time... Simba finally takes his rightful place as King... and Sora once again locks the keyhole... now trying to figure out what to do next, two unexpected friends follow them... how will it affect the team... and why is Stitch not wanting to go the next world? Oh, I guess there's a little hind of what the next world is. I would do it for the next chapter... but why not... he it is too. Well, I hope you enjoyed the chapter. Be sure to leave a review and if you haven't done it already then be sure to follow and fav. as well.
