Chapter 1: Scar's Wish
Pridelands
The savannah around the large rock formation was devoid of greenery and of life in general except the remaining hyenas and lions were very hungry. And very annoyed at their hedonist king, Scar.
The black manned lion with the scar over his eye lay on his bed, not really concerned aside from doing whatever he wanted and complaining about the lack of food.
"Sire, mind if we sing another Lovely Bunch of Coconuts...for the 1000th time?," asked the former majordomo, the hornbill Zazu trapped behind a ribcage.
"Scar. When are we getting food? Starving here.," complained the loud hyena, Banzai outside.
What do they want now? Idiotic fools. They should've found more food by now., thought Scar.
"Eat Zazu if you have to. But, otherwise, what are you doing lazing about. Find more food!" the lion demanded.
How'd the drought suddenly start the minute I declared myself King. After deposing of...Him...and the little hairball...this should've been more glorious to the wonder that I am., he thought.
Suddenly, a gleam of light shined in the gloomy sky and shot into the entrance of the open space.
Scar got up, anticipating it to be food, but was dissatisfied that it was some inedible oddly shaped rock that had an opening at the end of its thinner end.
"Not this you idiots. I want some real meat.," said the lion as he subconsciously rubbed the odd rock.
Suddenly, blue smoke came out of the opening to Scar's shock as he backed away in apprehension.
It formed into a large, blue hairless two-armed thing with pointy ears, a beard, hair emerging from the back of its head, broad chest, and unusual material that didn't seem to be a part of its body. The closest comparison was it was like the monkey Rafiki, but much more advanced.
"Jafar- I seemed- to have- landed- on a strange world- filled with talking animals- I must explore more- in order to- get acquainted with- the local life forms.," said the being as his goofy features shifted into a weird skin Scar had never seen before and talking in an odd speech pattern that paused every few seconds, looking like a specific person while he did this.
The scarred lion was confused as to why the blue thing was doing this.
"Wait. Could I be finally free?," pondered the being, returning to normal before noticing Scar with the lamp.
"Just as I thought I was out. They pull me back.," said the blue being as he turned into another specific person that Scar didn't recognize.
"Does kitty want a ball of yarn?" asked the being as he turned into an odd figure with a grandmotherly voice.
"Better than nothing. Be it dream or not, I'll be eating something!," Scar said as he lunged at the blue being with his claws barred, who suddenly transformed again. This time Scar wasn't in the interior of Pride Rock.
Suddenly, Scar and Zazu were on an odd animal that was hollow inside as the blue being was now in another weird skin with a covering over his head this time.
"Keep your paws, wings, and tails inside the shuttle at all times. No smoking, flashing pictures, or unfastening your seatbelts. We're taking a tour of the African savanna, which seems to be a little vacant now. Take as many pictures of hyenas and lions and make sure to get the coupon for your special photos at the end of the trip. Gifts and Concessions are at the end of the tour.," said the blue being.
Suddenly, the odd being zoomed around the Pridelands several times around at lightspeed and suddenly stopped as the shocked lion and hornbill were frazzled by the experience with a blinding flash. They are suddenly back in their original positions prior to the ride.
"What a Magnifique collection. Mah, Mah. Such dynamic poses. Such emotions.," said the blue being in an odd accent as he now had weird monochrome striped skin on him with additional facial hair.
"What the blazes are you? Who sent you? Coming to take my throne?" asked Scar.
"Hey there. Great to be here. Mind if I call you Scab? Booboo? Mark?" asked the blue being.
"Scar! I am the King! If you continue to pester me. GET OUT!," Scar demanded.
"Sorry. Scar. Can't do that. I have itty-bitty living space and I only get out on gigs. With Phenomenal Cosmic power to grant whoever rubs this any wish. I'm a genie. You can call me Genie. Been 10,000 years since I knew my original name. Genie kinda fits now So what are your three wishes? Master?.," explained the blue being.
Scar turned to Zazu.
"Don't look at me that way...," warned the majordomo before Scar knocked him out.
"Ok, buddy. You got three wishes. You can't wish for more wishes. No Refunds. Can't wish anyone back from the dead. Can't make anyone fall in love with you. Can't kill someone. Those are the limitations.," said the genie as he turned into an odd collection of rectangular leaves with his face on it, turned into a ghoulish being, turned into a cartoonish heart, and lastly a dismembered body before reforming himself.
"I doubt I wanted anyone back. Especially him. Unable to do it?" asked Scar.
"It's not a pretty picture. It goes against the circle of life. You gotta keep things going all Day of the Dead.," said the genie as he turned into an odd-looking, specific person briefly.
"I'll indulge this fantasy I might be having. I'm a little pestered at the food shortages- so I wish for everlasting resources.," said Scar curiously.
"Seems like you're making up for a mess you dug yourself into, but alright.," said the genie with disappointment as he looked at the dried savanna.
The genie shot weird pink lighting at the ground.
The big-eyebrowed Banzai, the spacey-eyed Ed, and the feminine Shenzi with the frill lock were digging into the ground.
"We keep digging and digging. We haven't even found a...," complained Banzai before being shot into the sky by an enlarging tree.
"Grub?" he added.
Suddenly, grasses, trees, flowers, water, and even animals began to sprout from the ground.
"Maybe a dream, but time to eat up!," said Shenzi as she bit into an antelope, which regenerated its flesh as soon it was eaten off of the animal.
Shenzi looked puzzled and then suspicious.
"The rains haven't come in years. How did this happen?" asked Sarabi, the lioness matriarch asked aloud.
"This is a miracle. Scar said to look for food. And lo and behold a bountiful harvest.," said the frenzied Zira as she bit into one of the emerging zebra.
Nala, the young lioness looked suspiciously at Pride Rock as she saw the glimmers of light.
Scar looked outside with amazement as Zazu came to as he slowly regained consciousness.
Suddenly, everything he could ever have, but couldn't achieve even with his most brilliant schemes was now possible.
"Marvelous. Weird beast of this rock-," Scar exclaimed aloud.
"Lamp.," Genie corrected.
"I wish to be a King ten times greater than Mufasa was. One of the Kings of the Past. One that can never die! Or be cast out of his throne! And then I wish you to be free! I can't eat you! Nor do I want your company!" shouted the lion.
Genie grimaced but relented.
"That's two wishes pal. Can't say I'm grateful. Boy, am I gonna regret this in a thousand years or maybe a million.," said the genie as he pointed his finger at Scar as the odd golden material came off the genie's arms as Scar began to spin around rapidly as he laughed madly.
The lamp vanished as the lion disappeared.
Zazu got the resolve to flew out of the cage, came outside, and widened his eyes in horror as did Nala as she and the other lionesses turned to the sky.
Scar was now a colossal, incorporeal figure made of red, rumbling clouds hovering above the sky.
"Now that I'm immortal. I admit it! Mufasa did die in the gorge but at my hands! I blamed little Simba for the whole thing, but he's dead now! So I am forever King! Now I can be myself without worrying about the consequences! All who oppose me will die! But, there's nothing you can do to stop me!" he said in a booming voice as his cloud hand reached out to grab several animals from the ground, including fellow lionesses and hyenas.
Shenzi, Banzai, and even the loony Ed were horrified.
He guzzled then down as the clouds erupted lighting as if it were digestion.
Zira seemed to be the only one excited at the sight.
"Scar has become an even greater king. He no longer needs a physical body like mere mortals. He is absolutely eternal and perfect. Offer your allegiance to your King. No, what is the word better than a king. Diet...Deity...Dog? No, God! He's a GOD!," Zira proclaimed.
Sarabi on the other hand was in a blur of disorientation, shock, then disgust.
"Your brother kept you and would've died to save you if you were ever in danger. And you repay him with treachery? You're no king or whatever a God is. You're a pauper monster on the throne.," said the angered lioness.
The genie began to slowly fly away in shame, hoping he wouldn't be noticed.
"Thank you blue...I know all now. A Homo Sapiens. A genie of the lamp. For granting me my apotheosis! Now no one can-," said the lion as he noticed Genie.
"Simba's alive by the way. Your majesty.," Genie said as a last retort of disgust with a mocking bow before vanishing.
Scar took a moment to process the information as the lions and hyenas on the ground, seemed relieved and shocked at the revelation.
"I will kill him myself!," said the angered Scar as he glanced at the hyena trio briefly before zooming towards the far desert. Zira, her lioness followers, and several hyenas unconcerned with their comrades' deaths followed as well.
Nala turned to the remaining hyena trio.
"What are you gonna do? He's a BIG CAT in the Sky! now! The most anybody can do is hide!," Banzai shouted.
"I'll say to it to your face. You slobbering, mangy, stupid poachers. There. You hide while we find a way to bring Scar down from his high place of euphoria.," Zazu retorted as he flew above them and away.
"What was that blue hairless ape? And why is Scar like that?," asked Nala.
"Reality blurring It is.," said an elderly voice coming from a portal opening in front of the hyenas and lionesses.
Two weird animals wearing odd skins over them emerged- a short green-skinned one with long pointy ears and one with a long red skin over his blue skin.
"He's Yoda. I'm Dr. Stephen Strange. I'm a Homo Sapiens- man. Don't ask what he is. He's a bit tight on the subject.," said the being.
"What are you?," asked Sarabi.
"Not sure if you're before mankind really began to flourish or after their extinction, but your coup-performing king just wished on a djinn to become a metaphysical god that will need a miracle to defeat. You need to destroy him before he gets in contact with the other villains across the metaverse.," said the man.
"Excuse me what?," Banzai asked.
