What if? Sarabi's death scene/Simba runs away/Mufasa's depression of illness
Young Simba: "Mooooooooooom!"
(Young Simba watches in horror as he can't even find his mother in the swirling mass of wildebeest below him. during the final minute, Sarabi leaps outta the herd and she begins climbing with super difficulty up the sheer rock slope. and Young Simba turns and he begins climbing right up to the top of the gorge. and outta his sight, Sarabi reaches a point right below the ledge where she can't climb due to the steepness. her claws are scraping and her back paws have no traction. above her on the ledge is Scar (her pure evil brother in law).)
Sarabi: "Scar! brother in law! {slips, barely hangs on} help me up here!"
{Scar looks disdainfully down. then he suddenly latches onto Sarabi's forepaws with his claws extended. and she roars, primarily from the sudden pain of Scar's claws. but no doubt also due to the sudden flash of realization. her expression slowly changes to one of horror just as she recognizes Scar's intent.}
Scar: (Slowly and pure evilly) "long live the queen." (Scar throws his brother in law backwards. And Sarabi free-falls, back first. the camera follows her down from under her, then from above her showing the stampede raging below.)
Sarabi: aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah!
{The camera suddenly focuses in on Young Simba. who's watching his mother hit the ground. no sound effects of the hit. no view of it neither. Sarabi and Simba's screams of panic being mingling.}
Young Simba: "noooooooooo!" (The herd passes by. and everything's clouded by dust. and Young Simba bounds to the canyon floor. but Sarabi's nowhere to be seen.)
Young Simba: {Coughing a bit} "Moooom!"
{There's a peculiar sound}
Young Simba: {silently} "Mom?"
{A stray wildebeest is running right past, the source of the sound. and the wildebeest curves around a log further down the gully. And right under the log is Sarabi, lying right on his side. but she's not moving around or breathing. And Young Simba approaches her entire motionless body. tragic depressing musical theme.}
Young Simba: {Hopefully} "Mom? Mom, come on. {He rubs up against Sarabi's left cheek. but her motionless head merely rolls back in place after the rub} you gotta get up. {He places both forepaws on his mothers's right cheek and he pushes a bit.} Mom. we gotta go home. {He tugs at Sarabi's right ear. but again, her motionless head limply moves back in place. and Young Simba runs off a bit, frantically.} heeeeelp! {echoing heeeeeelp!) somebody! {echoing somebody!) anybody. (echoing anybody.) {teared up) heeelp."
{He begins sobbing silently. then he turns back to Sarabi's motionless body. he nuzzles up under the motionless right front paw so that his mother would've been embracing him. and Scar emerges right through the dustage.}
Scar: "Simba. what have you done?"
Young Simba: {Jumping back, sobbing a bit} "there were wildebeests and she tried to save me. it was an accident, I... I didn't mean for it to happen."
Scar: {Embracing Young Simba, yet still distant} "of course. of course you didn't. no one ever means {He pulls Young Simba closer. and Young Simba hides his face on Scar's right front leg.} for these things to happen. but the queen is dead. {He begins looking with mock regret at Young Simba.) and if it weren't for you, she'd still be alive. {Young Simba is now crushed, believing his guilt. and another thought occurs to Scar.} oh! what will your father think?"
Simba: {Sniffing A Bit} "what am I gonna do?"
Scar: "run away, Simba. run. run away and never return."
What if?: Gracia Hughes' death and funeral ceremony scene
(The towns' people and honor guard are burying Gracia's closed casket. Gracia Hughes passed away due to some sort of accident.)
Elysia (grabbing onto Maes' right hand): "Dad. how come? why are they burying Mommy? who are those people? why are they burying her? why?"
Maes (holding back his tear drops): "she's gone, Elysia."
Elysia: "they can't! I don't like it. Mommy said she had important things to do and if they bury her, she can't do them when she wakes up."
Maes (breaking down, sobbing a bit, snuggling up with Elysia): "Elysia."
Elysia: "stop them, Daddy! Mommy needs to do her important things. she told me."
Major Alex Louis Armstrong: [Sobbing A Bit]
Elysia: "why are you burying Mommy, Daddy? why?"
Elysia (off screen): "Mommy, wake up!"
