I don't own the Lion King
Thank you to Autobot00001 for the suggestion on the colors of Nala's father
"NO!" Sarafina yelled when she heard the news from Scar.
"I-I didn't know what else to do," Scar said, "those wildebeests are very dangerous. It began to attack Amar but I jumped in to assist him. As I grabbed him by the side, he swung me off him and slashed his horn onto Amar's throat."
Mufasa was distressed when he heard about his brother's accident. However, he had one question about this incident. "Why would a wildebeest be in a jungle?"
"Maybe he was lost," Scar answered, "I cannot believe this either my dear brother. He was such a good brother to us and so kind to you," he said as he turned and looked at Sarafina who had tears spilling down her cheeks. "I don't know why such tragedies always happen to this family, but lets just hope that this little one is cautious," he said as he looked at Simba and walked away from his family.
Mufasa didn't know why, but it looked like Scar was hiding something from them. He didn't know what but he didn't want to spend his time trying to figure out what it was. His brother had been killed by a wildebeest or something and now was not the time to ponder it. He looked up at a distressed Sarafina as she wiped her tears away.
"There, there," Sarabi said in a soothing was as she put a comforting paw on her shoulder.
Months passed and Amar's body had never been recovered. Scar was thankful for that part because he knew that some lions could easily distinguish between a lion's claw and a wildebeest's horn. No news on Amar was always good news for him.
Sarafina grieved over the loss of the mate that she truly loved but that she wanted to be with. However, through this loss, she had awarded with a lovely little daughter that she named Nala. How she had been gifted with such a wonderful child was that she had gone through another rough time. She really wanted to have a child like Sarabi. She had found a cream colored lion with a red mane and blue eyes. He was very handsome in her view but not as handsome as her previous mate.
He sweet-talked her and kissed her. When she gave birth to a girl and he found out about it, he had left her. All those sweet words and treatment that she had received now meant nothing. Mufasa was good enough to allow her back into the Pride Lands. He understood her predicament that she wanted someone to love and to also have a child with. She thanked him and allowed her daughter to pay with Sarabi's child.
Months passed by and Simba and Nala grew into big cubs. Sarafina and Sarabi was lounging in the sun while Sarafina gave her daughter a bath until Simba came along and took her daughter to the water hole so they could play.
"As long as Zazu goes with you," Sarabi called to the cubs as she watched them scamper away. "You have such a wonderful daughter," Sarabi suddenly said as she looked at her good friend, "I just can't believe that lion would leave you just because she came out as a girl."
"He was not Amar," Sarafina said, "Amar would have loved her." With that, she rose her head to the sky and looked into the blue sky. I love you she mouthed.
The End
