Ch 6 More Questions Arise

As Kali was playing with his friends nearby Scar was watching the three cubs play. As soon as he saw the silver cub his green eyes went wide. "That's him," he muttered. "It has to be."

"Who?" Sarafina asked confusion in her blue eyes. "Scar what's this really about?" Scar said nothing and gave the creamy lioness a cool look. "Don't worry," Sarafina said. "Ahadi won't hear anything from me. He's nothing but a big bully as far as I'm concerned so he won't get squat from me."

"Well that's good to know," Scar said. "Look over at that male cub and you'll see what I'm hear for." With that Sarafina looked over and saw Kali, who was trying to catch a butterfly. When she saw his silver coat her blue eyes went wide, "Oh Kings Above that's Mufasa and Sarabi's son," she whispered.

"Yes it is," Scar confirmed with a nod. "I just wanted to make sure the lad was well taken care of."

"Oh?" Sarafina said raising an eyebrow. "And why is that exactly?"

"Oh come now Sarafina I'm not heartless," Scar said offended by Sarafina's tone. "My brother and his future Queen may not care but that doesn't mean that I don't care. He is my nephew after all."

"I'm sorry Scar," Sarafina said feeling bad that she had offended her friend. "Would you like me to leave you alone so you can talk to him?"

"Thank you," Scar said with a smile. "You know 'Fina I don't know what I'd do without you as my friend." With that Sarafina gave Scar a quick nuzzle then the creamy lioness took her leave. After she was gone Scar was pondering how to approach Kali. The brown lion didn't want to reveal to the cub that he was his uncle just yet. Before Scar could think of some way to make himself know the decision was taken out of his hands. He looked up and saw a silver flash come flying towards him. Before he could move Kali had collided with him causing the cub to go flying to the ground. "Kali!" a voice cried out. Scar looked and saw a pink coated cub and a rusty brown coated cub come running towards him. Scar decided that he'd better put on a good act. "Oh you poor cub," he cried picking Kali up off the ground. "Are you ok?"

"Yes sir," Kali said with a grin. "I'm ok. I'm sorry I ran into you."

"That's quite all right dear boy," Scar said. "I'm just glad you're not hurt."

"Hey what were you doin' hidin' in the bushes anyways?" the pink coated cub asked.

"Usafi," Kali said. "Be nice."

"I'm always nice," Usafi said. "But he's pretty creepy hiding and watching cubs play."

"I can assure you little one I am anything but creepy," Scar said. "In fact I know young Kali here."

"You do?" Kali asked his white eyes wide with confusion. "How?"

"Well you probably don't remember," Scar said. "But I met you when you were just a baby."

"Do you know my mom?" Kali asked.

"In a way," Scar said. Before Kali could ask more a rusty brown lion with a dark brown mane and chocolate brown eyes approached the group along with a dusty brown lioness with light brown eyes. "Jasiri there you are," the lion said. Then he saw Kali and his expression darkened. "I see you're playing with the freak again," he said in a nasty tone. Kali sucked in his breath a pinned his ears to his head stung by the lion's words.

"Oh Uganda stop," the lioness said glaring at her mate. "For goodness sake he's just a cub."

"I've already voiced my opinion Cama," Uganda stated glaring at Kali. Then he noticed Scar and he said, "And I suppose you're this thing's father?"

"Actually I'm not," Scar said getting to his feet and approaching Uganda. Despite Uganda being much older and more built than Scar the brown Prince didn't show any fear. "And as far as freaks go the only one I see is you."

"How dare you," Uganda growled baring his teeth at Scar.

"Oh please," Scar scoffed. "I've been dealing with bullies like you my entire life. Take my father for example. He's about twice your size and twice as strong. If I can survive a beating from him then you should be nothing. Now I suggest you run along now and leave these cubs be."

"Uganda please," Cama said. "Let's not start a fight. For Jasiri's sake." When Uganda heard these words he looked down at his daughter, who was staring at him with wide brown eyes. "Very well," Uganda said. "I'll back down. You're lucky that my daughter is here otherwise I'd rip you apart rouge."

"Please," Scar said rolling his emerald eyes. "Be gone with you." With that Uganda let out a growl and picked up Jasiri and put her and his back. "And don't expect to see her again freak," Uganda hissed as he and his family left. Once they were gone Usafi went up to Kali, who was in tears and nuzzled him. "Don't let that meanie get to you Kal'," she said softly.

"Maybe he's right," Kali sniffled wiping his eyes with his paw. "Maybe I am a freak."

"Oh please," Scar scoffed rolling his eyes. "Lions like him are nothing but bullies. Trust me my boy you are no freak."

"Thanks mister," Kali said with a small smile. Then he looked up at the sky and noticed the sun was beginning to set. "Come on 'Saf we'd better get home," the sliver two month old said. "See ya mister." With that Kali and Usafi left leaving Scar alone. However he wasn't alone for long. Soon Sarafina joined him. "Hey," she said with a smile. "I just talked to King Alamine and Queen Safara. They said we could stay as long as we want."

"Good," Scar said still deep in thought.

"Hey are you ok?" Sarafina asked. "How'd things go with Kali?"

"Just fine," Scar replied. "But I didn't tell the boy I'm his uncle."

"Really?" Sarafina asked a little surprised. "How come?"

"Well I don't want to confuse the boy," Scar said. "After all he's only a child. I just wanted to make sure he's ok. We'll stay for a few days and I'll talk to his mother then we'll go back."

"SO you're not going to tell him the truth?" Sarafina asked.

"No I'm not," Scar declared. "And I'd appreciate it if you'd stop with the questions Sarafina. It's really rather annoying."

"Fine," Sarafina said not wanting to fight. "Come on let's go find somewhere to sleep. I don't know about you but I'm beat."

"Sounds good to me," Scar said. With that the two young lions headed off to get some much needed rest.

Meanwhile Kali had returned and soon found Recko who greeted he son with a smile. But that smile soon vanished when the dusty brown lioness saw that Kali had been crying. "Kali what's wrong?" she asked pulling her son towards her.

"Mom," Kali said softly. "Am I a freak?"

"Oh honey of course not," Recko said nuzzling her son. "Who said you were a freak?"

"Jasiri's dad," Kali said. "But I met another lion who actually stood up for me."

"Really?" Recko said curious about this lion. "Who was he?"

"I didn't get his name," Kali admitted. "But he wasn't fully grown yet. I think he was about a year old. He said he met me when I was a baby."

"Hmm," Recko said wrinkling her brow in confusion. "What did he look like?"

"He..." Kali began. Then his white eyes went wide and he gasped. "There he is Mom. Over there by the cave." Recko looked and when she saw Scar her blue eyes went wide. "Oh Kings above," she whispered. "I know who he is. Kali you stay here." With that Recko got up leaving a confused Kali behind. The dusty brown lioness stormed up to Scar and growled, "What that Hell are you doing here Taka?"
