Chapter 20: Act II Scene VI: Luau

"Well since only one person voted, and it was B, we're finishing this up first," DC Watchergirl said. They were in Mxy's house. "Sorry Mxy. But I guess we'll have to use again some other time."

"Drat!" Mxy exclaimed.

Meanwhile in the DC universe

The lights turn on and Simba appeared on the very edge of stage left. He looked around in horror by how black the place was.

"Simba!" He turned to see Nala coming up behind him. "Awful, isn't it?" He turned back to look at the land.

"Yeah, it is," Simba agreed.

"So, What made you come back?" Nala asked.

"Got some sense knocked into me," Simba answered. "I've got the bump to prove it. Besides, this is my kingdom. If I don't fight for it who will?"

"I will," Nala said.

"It'll be dangerous," Simba told her.

"Danger? Ha. I laugh in the face of danger. Ha. Ha. Ha," Nala responded. Simba smirked at that. He had said that once.

"I don't see how there's anything funny about this," Timon said as he and Pumbaa walked on.

"Timon? Pumbaa?" Simba said surprised. "What are you doing here?"

"At your service, my liege," Pumbaa told him as he bowed.

"Woah. We're fighting your uncle for THIS?" Timon questioned as gestured to the black lands.

"Yes Timon," Simba answered. "This is my home."

"Well…if it's important to you than we're with you to the end," Timon responded.
"Thanks Timon," Simba said. As they walked slowly to center stage the lights shown there revealing hyenas. They took cover behind a rock.

"Hyenas. I HATE hyenas," Timon complained. He turned to Simba. "So what's your plan on getting past those guys?"

"Live bait," Simba answered.

"Good idea," Timon said. "Hey!"

"Come on, Timon, you guys have to create a diversion," Simba told him.

"What do you want me to, dress in drag and do the hula?" Timon proposed. The lights stopped shinning on them and drumming started. The hyenas perked up and the lights went on over there. They saw Timon in a grass skirt and Pumbaa with an apple in his mouth. The hyenas' full attention was on them.

"Luau!" Timon exclaimed. The audience burst out laughing. "If you're hungry for a hunk of fat and juicy meat. Eat my buddy Pumbaa here, because he is a treat. Come on and dine on this tasty swine, all you have to do is get in line." The hyenas started to crowd around them. "Aaaare you achin'."
"Yup, yup, yup," Pumbaa added.

"Foooor some bacon?" Timon said.

"Yup, yup, yup," Pumbaa repeated.

"Heee's a big pig," Timon continued.

"Yup, yup," Pumbaa repeated.

"You can be a big pig too," Timon finished. "Oy!" They both screamed and ran off stage with hyenas in hot pursuit. The audience erupted in laughter. Simba and Nala moved more center stage.

"Nala, find my mother and rally the lionesses," Simba told her. "I'll look for Scar." She nodded and they parted ways before leaving stage.
