Just as the sun started to go down Scar went to the watering hole as normal and met Zira again. She had heard what happened. They sat in silence for a while watching the sun disappear and as soon as it was dark they headed back to Pride Rock.
When they got there Mufasa was standing outside the cave. Zira walked past and Mufasa smiled at her, but then Scar came up and went to walk around Mufasa, but he blocked him.
"Not tonight," he said sharply and Scar stepped back in surprise. Mufasa watched him carefully. After Scar had blamed him for what happened with the hyenas and had let him take the blame for the buffalo he had decided to keep Scar out the way as much as possible.
"Who gave you the right to stop me?" Scar questioned as he went to go round him, but Mufasa blocked him again and growled.
"Not tonight," he repeated. Scar tried again to get past, but Mufasa blocked him and Scar knew his brother had more strength when it came to things like this so he backed off. He went down the rocks and to the elephant graveyard where the hyenas were surprised to see him, but after hearing what had happened, they were more than happy for Scar to stay.
Scar wasn't about to give up that easy though and he planned to get Mufasa back for everything he had done.
After Scar had gone, Mufasa sighed and sat down. A young lioness walked up to him.
"You ok?" she asked.
Mufasa smiled weakly. "Hey Sarabi, " he said "yeah I'm ok". Sarabi smiled at him.
"It's getting late," she said "we should go inside". Mufasa nodded and followed Sarabi inside.
Late the next morning Mufasa woke up and made his way down to the watering hole, had a drink and then sat staring in to the water. Sarabi saw him from nearby and went over to him, nudging him gently. He saw another reflection in the water and smiled, then looked up to see Sarabi next to him smiling back.
The King was walking with Rafiki and they passed the watering hole, noticing Mufasa was with Sarabi. "Look Ahadi – just how it's meant to be," Rafiki said and the King smiled and walked on by before Mufasa or Sarabi noticed them. They wanted them to get to know each other better and they didn't want to get in the way. Mufasa needed someone else as his brother was hardly ever around and the King knew that he wouldn't always be there.
