THE SCARRED KING AND QUEEN NALA- Ch XV

Last Time- Maelekeo Sawadi has grown, quite a bit one can tell... and Simba realizes this with grief. Hehehehehehehe, and I quoted the Emcee about his lovely gorilla companion xPPP

Notes- Ok... I believe we are going to be leaving Simba and Keo alone for a while... because they're verrrry boring to write about, believe it or not, even though they ARE pretty cute.

Also- thought it'd be wise to make a remark about "If You Could See Her (The Gorilla Song)" umm... see, the play ("Cabaret") takes place in 1930- "the dawn of the Hitler era"- and in the real version of the song at the end he says, "she wouldn't look... jewish... at all!" instead of "she isn't a meeskite at all!" but my soundtrack kills it... don't ask me why. Haha.

Oh, right... the dream I describe through Sarafina. Umm... based loosely on a VERY STRANGE dream I had the other night... hehe... lol.

——————————

"Nala Nala Nala, what are we to do with you?"

Muttering under his breath, as though speaking to his self-dubbed wife, the King of the Pridelands paced back in forth along the outskirt of Priderock's shelter.

Indeed, he was filled with frustration. Night after night, the two would make love... though nothing had happened. No matter how many times the King did even his very best techniques, Nala never reached pregnancy.

And to make matters worse... now neither of them could. Nala had gotten to the point in which she just couldn't take it anymore- she was forced into it every single night, and frankly she was getting bored of Scar's style.

And just because of that, Scar no longer could either. Because Nala ceased to enjoy it, he did poorly as well.

So know it'd be who knows how long before Scar had an heir... and who knew when he could suddenly drop dead... aiie, this was not good.

——————————

Nala had not dropped her habits of sitting by the waterhole glumly, practically entranced to the clutches of another world. She had come to dread the nights... and she wasted her other waking hours, just sitting here...

Well, what else could she do? She hadn't slept in practically months! With Scar's insistence that she acquire a cub, he wouldn't let her... for hours he'd make love to her, and still nothing happened.

But why not? They'd been doing it practically every night for at least two months- WAS HE IMPOTENT! No, haha, as if... Scar, impotent? Haha, yeah right.

Perhaps he was too old...? Scar was not exactly a young lion... he'd been around for quite some time, hadn't he... And Nala knew that at some point of time, for some earlier than others, it would become impossible for their... tools... to come in contact with another properly.

Such was not really the correct phrasing, but... that was basically the point, was it not?

——————————

Sarafina would pace the base of Priderock for hours, every day never ceasing her habits...

SHE WANTED HIM BACK.

Her daughter had him; had her precious lover... why not she any longer? Did he simply not love her anymore? I mean... she had produced his current lover! And Nala... Sarafina's daughter... didn't even care for Scar... so why couldn't she have him?

It is a terrible thing to turn against your children. Such immediately suggests that you are a terrible, awful being... one completely heartless and careless to not care for your own creation. However, this thought did not even ever cross Sarafina's mind as she angrily wished for her former lover.

It is a terrible thing to turn against your children... it is even more terrible to do such for sexual reasons.

It had happened to her in a dream once, a dream she'd had as a cub- her mother had fallen in love with Sarafina's favorite fiction character, but the character had loved Sarafina, and not her mother...

And though the thoughts of this dream had crossed her mind, never did she realize that she was being extremely selfish with her child... even if her daughter's fiancee was her father, she ought to be grateful that Nala had actually been WANTED by someone... after Mufasa's death, Sarafina had been sure her daughter would become a nothing like her.

But no... and this was worse.

——————————

That night, Nala waited boredly in the cave through dusk and evening, knowing that Scar would come to force his love upon her again...

However, he never did come... and she sat there all night, waiting awake for Scar to come. She'd wasted another night awake, without even having to have her nightly sckrew...

——————————

Trucking back in time...

——————————

It was around 6:30, PM, and Scar was in the elephant graveyard. Perched upon a tall cliff face, one standing out above all the others, he spoke above his minions- the hyenas...

"Hello, my friends!" His voice was gleeful... which was different than usual, for normally he would greet them with negativity. "It has been a long time since I have hosted... any parties..."

Hundreds, perhaps thousands, of hyenas, gathered far beneath the king, on rock sculptures of all sizes and importances. As it always had before, the place looked like a proverbial hell... the area glowed deep, hellish colors... which reflected upon all, even King Scar.

"However, soon such a remark shall not be valid- for tonight I have come to the graveyard and invited all of you..."

His only reasons for choosing tonight were not precisely valid- however, he had used to love these parties, so perhaps that was good enough. Besides, it had been so long since he had splurged on his sanity... he hadn't felt helplessly foolish, careless... in so long, wasn't it about time?

"So tonight... we may party to anything, we may drink to anything... for I have found that fermented liquid is not hard to find along here. Well, as un-dignified as this sounds, I must say... party on."

——————————

A/N: Haha, I'm so lame.. I had to think of SOME way in which african creatures could become tipsy... as Scar so obviously has, and several times in his life. Anyway, on with the story.

——————————

"Where have you been?"

Blinking slowly and reluctantly, he let slumber part from him... and he surrendered to the frequent power of daylight.

Groaning slightly, he wondered why his dubbed wife had asked him such a question... furthermore, why she had woken him to ask this question. Couldn't he simply grab a few more moments of precious sleep... letting orbs fall together again, he attempted to ignore her.

"KIVULI!"

Ok, that was enough to make him rise.

No, she shouldn't be calling him that... that was a name reserved only for close friends he'd kept since his early life. And she, of course, was not one.

"Ah Nala, do not call me that..."

Nala was not pleased with his remark. "Where have you been?"

"Wh-what?"

"You did not come to your sleeping place until dawn was only two hours short. I suppose you're not going to tell me why you were out all night?"

Oh no... she knew... ah, how embarrassing... Perhaps he should have invited her as well, that way she at least wouldn't be fuming with him NOW, but then instead...

"Umm..."

"Don't you umm me mister unfaithful- what were you up to last night?"

Oh my god! No, she didn't know! She thought he was fooling around with another female! Goodness no- with Nala on his hands he would never touch another.

"Oh, Nala, it's not what you think! I am not sckrewing with anyone- other than you of course- if that's what you thought I was doing.."

He rose... and then realized...

Oh no, it was the dead give away. No, no, any time but now... "Holy- ! I can't be... not now..." But yes, indeed, the dead give away could make its appearance... oh, how he hated everything having to do with fermented berries... and now... "Omigod, I'm hung over!"

Nala shrieked. No, he wasn't having an affair, he was simply out to drink his fill... and more than that, anyone could add. "Damn you, Scar! You scare me half to death thinking you're being unfaithful, only for me to figure out you were simply DRUNK!"

Yes, as he thought... that was worse. "Noooooo Nala, I haven't done anything wrong... ah, Nala, don't yell..." yes, he was going to get it from her.

——————————

A/N: Haha, as fun as it is to write about a snappy Nala scolding a hung-over King Scar, I'd better stop now... I mean, where to go? Hehehehehe, next chapter shall be exotic though, imagine where their relationship will be by then!
