Death of a King and the exile of a Prince

After Mufasa had saved Simba and Nala, he had been extremely angry with Simba about disobeying him and putting Nala in danger. After they had left the Graveyard, Mufasa had given Simba a strict lecture, but he later told Simba something important, how all the Great Kings of the past reside amongst those stars and that they would always be there when Simba would need them…and so would Mufasa.

The next day, Uncle Scar had told Simba to come with him (this was unusual, Scar hated company, especially Simba's company) to the base of the 'Towering Eye'.

"Your father has a surprise for you, at the top of the tower," said Scar.

"Really?" said Simba, "I should go."

"But," said Scar, he handed Simba a pistol, "You might want to practice on that shot of yours."

He was of course referring to how Simba had missed the cannibals (if Simba had been old enough to reason, he would have questioned as to how Scar knew about him throwing stones at the cannibals), "Oh," said Simba, "Okay."

As Scar, was leaving, he said, "Try aiming very top of the tower."

And with that, Scar left, leaving Simba behind.

In the meantime, Mufasa was up in the tower waiting for Scar. He heard the door close behind him and turned around to see Scar come in, "Hello, brother," said Mufasa and as he hugged his brother he felt a sharp pain in his chest, as he pulled back he saw Scar holding a silenced pistol (he had shot Mufasa in the chest), "Brother?" Mufasa said weakly.

"Long live the King," said Scar and he shot Mufasa again then left the room.

At that moment, Simba fired the pistol at the tower, thinking he had hit the roof, but at that moment, he saw Mufasa stumbling towards the window, "Dad?" Simba shouted.

Mufasa suddenly fell out the window, down the twenty, palace stories, and hit the ground.

Simba could not believe what had happened; he dropped the pistol and ran over to his father's body and rolled him over, "Dad?" he said, "Dad?"

Simba began weeping over his father's body, "Simba?"

Simba turned around to see Scar, "Simba, what have you done?"

Simba jumped to his feet, "He…I…I didn't mean to," Simba stammered and ran to hug Scar, "Of course you didn't," said Scar, "No one ever means for these things to happen."

"What should I do?" asked Simba.

"Run away, Simba," said Scar.

"What?"

"Run away, and never return."

Simba suddenly tore himself from Scar's grip and ran for the Desert of Torn Souls

The cannibals suddenly joined Scar, "Have him," Scar said.

The cannibals gave chase after Simba, but Simba was faster than them and crossed into the Desert, the cannibals were idiots, but they knew, whoever enters the desert…never returns.

That night Scar announced Mufasa and Simba's death to the whole kingdom; everyone was upset, but no one as much as Nala, who had lost her best friend, but she felt another reason why she should be really sad, she just did not know why.
