It was a hot, humid day in the Outlands. The sun looked like a big ball of fire. It was so hot that the sand and grass looked like they were going to turn into a burnt black color. The water around the deserted palace was starting to fade away because of the grass absorbing it to survive through the day and night. Time is starting to run out for the Outsiders inhabitance in the ghost palace of Scar.
As for Zira, it was time to plot another attack on the Pride Lands. However, she did not have a male partner-in-crime. To solve this, she would have to go out and find a male mate from a different group so that she could have a son. This was not easy for her because many of the groups that lived in the Outlands disliked the Outsiders.
"This is hopeless," Zira said, "I'll never be able find a mate anywhere. I have failed you Scar. I have failed you!" Then, coincidentally, the sands started to break apart, as if something was rising from beneath the Earth's surface. A mysterious black shape jumped out of the sand and in front of Zira.
"Scar? Honey?"
"My wife Zira, don't give up hope," Scar calmly said, "You still have a chance to regain my vengeance. I'll help guide you to a mate in which will produce from you a boy that will grow up to conquer the Pride Lands for the Outsiders." Scar waved his hand and made a tunnel of sand extended for miles. "You must follow this path in order to mate, my Queen. You will avenge our loss!" Scar soon disappeared into the ground, but the sand tunnel remained standing.
"I will regain our vengeance against the Pride Landers and those who have betrayed us my love!" Zira followed Scar's orders and went into the tunnel with a sadistic smile on her face. "We will make our glorious return to power, my King and husband."
About a month later, she had born a child. It was a boy. His name was Maisha. He looked like Scar when he was young. His eyes were totally black, as if he had no life in him.
"Scar, I have bore you a son," Zira said, "a son that will destroy the Pride Lands once and for all!" Scar's face appeared in the darkness of the sand, smiling an evil smile. "I will personally make sure he does it for you my King."
