WOOOOO! YEAH! I finally have it done! Sorry about the lazy writing guys, but it's over now. Not like a lot of people seemed to like it much anyway. Thank you guest for your review. I thought about what you said, and considered it. I thought this to be a good way to show how all they got into the position they were in during the Timone and Pumbaa show. And I am tired of this story, I'm ready to get all these done! Maybe I'll do a short what if one shot later where Taka makes amends with them. Maybe. Enjoy what you can of the last chapter of this story.
Scar sat over the body of his mother with blank eyes. His mother had always been there and supported what he did. Aside from plotting against his brother. Mufasa and the rest of the pride, aside from a few were all there.
Mufasa stared in surprise and horror, he froze in place at the sight of his dead mother. Scar looked up at them and saw Dwala with them. Anger coursed through him.
"Dwala! Who told you about this place?" He asked as he got up and walked towards her.
She stared at him surprised. "Um, it was Zira, w–"
"She told about this? And you LISTENED TO HER?!"
"Yeah, of course I did she's my friend, I trust her and–"
"You idiot!" Scar roared in rage. "HOW COULD YOU LISTEN TO HER?!"
Sarabi stepped in front of him. "Scar don't talk to my sister that way!"
"She's an idiot! How could she listen to her?!"
Mufasa stepped in front of Sarabi and glared at Taka. "Calm down Taka, you're not the only one who is suffering from this." His face filled with pain. "She was my mother too."
He turned to Sarabi. "Where's Zira?"
"That's a good question, I don't know, she's been missing for a couple days."
"Of course she has! She told the hyenas and they went after us!"
They all looked at him in curiosity. "Why would they go for you?" Asked Sarabi.
Mufasa had a look of understanding in his eyes. Sarabi noticed and turned to him. "Mufasa, you know something the rest of us don't, out with it!"
Mufasa sighed and looked to his brother. "Taka why don't you tell them.'
He nodded. "I was...working with the Hyenas."
Everyone gasped at this.
Sarabi glared at Taka.
Mufasa didn't seem to notice though. He walked over and picked his mother up in his mouth and walked back to pride rock.
Uru's funeral was going to be later in the evening of the following day.
Mufasa sat in the corner of the cave, staring at the wall.
"You need to get rid of him Mufasa."
He sighed and turned to her. "Sarabi he is my brother, I cannot– will not banish him."
"Yes you will, Mufasa, I've had enough of him."
He growled in annoyance. "Woman, my mother has just died!"
"I know, and I also know she died because your brother was working with those…those things! They killed her trying to get to him! Why can't you see this Mufasa?!"
Mufasa was silent a moment before answering. "He…he didn't mean it."
"Does it matter Mufasa?! Because of his actions, the consequences took your mother's life! You're - Our son - Is in danger as long as he stays here!"
"ENOUGH!" Mufasa roared in anger. "I WILL NOT BE BANISHING MY OWN BROTHER SARABI!"
"YOU'RE SON'S SCARED OF HIM MUFASA!"
Mufasa stared at her in surprise, he tried to find something to say but couldn't think of anything. Finally, he sighed in defeat, he had nothing to say in Taka's defense. Sarabi was right about everything.
"Mufasa, if you don't do something, Scar will come back and try to kill you both again. He's wanted you're throne since he was a cub. How long until he wants it once again?"
Mufasa stared at his mate, she stared back at him with hard eyes. He sighed. "Fine, you win Sarabi, I'll… talk to him about it." She didn't say anything as he walked out of the cave. He stopped, in the corner of his eye he found Taka laying down staring at him sadly. "You heard."
He nodded.
Mufasa stared at him a while. "Then I won't waste too much of your time. The dry seasons are coming soon, be gone before they get here." Then he walked off, leaving him alone.
Taka sat there a while, finally he sighed and stood up,I may as well go now.He then walked down from pride rock and towards the edge of the pride lands.
Sarafina saw Mufasa, she came up to him wearing a look of concern. "Mufasa, where's Taka?"
"He was over by the entrance to the cave when I left him"
Sarafina walked towards the cave, she didn't find Taka, but his scent remained. She found it led away from pride rock and into the savannah. She ran out into the savannah after him.
Taka came to the edge of the pride lands and stopped a moment. This would be the last time he would be here, he wanted the moment to last forever. Yet he knew he couldn't stay here, nor could the moment last. With a deep breath he took a step over the border. He took one last look behind him a moment and continued on his way into the unknown.
"TAKA!"
He turned around to find Sarafina running towards him, he didn't know if she was going to attack him or what. "Sarafina, why are you here?"
"I want to come with you."
"Why?"
"Because I love you and want to be with you."
"What about Nala?"
"She'll be better off in the pride lands. Besides, she's set to marry Simba when she's grown."
"Taka stared at her a while and shrugged. Fine, if you want to come, then let's go."
So did you like any of it? I liked a few parts. If any of you feel that Sarabi is being a bitch, well think of being in her paws. Scar, the man who almost killed your husband and only son is still living in your house. Then your husband's mother dies. And it's because his brother made a large, dangerous gang mad by not completing a job he promised to do. Which of course was to kill your brother. You see how many people he has hurt and what he is willing to do to get the throne. You mean to tell me you wouldn't be a little bit concerned that he might go back to his old ways? You're an idiot if you said yes. Anyway that's all folks! GO HOME!
