There was a storm within the Pride Lands. The sky was filled with dark and thundering clouds. And the atmosphere within the Pride Lands was down bad. Most of the animal herds had fled the pride lands, indefinitely. Due to Scar's rule. All of the grass in the lands had died. The trees had lost their leaves and carcasses of dead animals lied in the dried and dark land.

There was a storm within the Pride Lands. The sky was filled with dark and thundering clouds. And the atmosphere within the Pride Lands was down bad. Most of the animal herds had fled the pride lands, indefinitely. Due to Scar's rule. All of the grass in the lands had died. The trees had lost their leaves and carcasses of dead animals lied in the dried and dark land.

There was a large cat with orange fur and multiple sharp black stripes on its backside, tail, four legs and nose. This felidae was known as Shere Khan. He had roamed wherever the winds took him for an entire year and a half. During his year and half journey roaming the world... he came across the pride lands.

"Oh, you poor thing." Shere Khan shook his head no as he stared down at the bones of a dead water buffalo. This wan't the first time that Shere Khan had crossed an empty dead carcass. He then looked forward and started turning his head from left-to-right and eventually spotted a big weird-looking rock from within the distance. two thirty. The rock he was staring at was Pride Rock.

"Ah..." Shere Khan had then begun walking toward pride rock. The trip would be quite the journey.

It had taken him one-third of an hour to reach pride rock. But Shere Khan had not expected any locals, there.

There were two hyenas were eating the flesh of a dead Antelope that they had killed. They were eating like there was no tomorrow. One of the two hyenas that was devouring the antelope's remains had suddenly stopped for a second and looked in the distance. Ten o'clock. It had saw Shere Khan walking toward them from a distance. The hyena then alerted its partner by nudging.

"Hey."

The second hyena had stopped biting but kept chewing the antelope's meat as it looked at its partner.

"Who is that?" The first hyeana then pointed its left paw in the direction of ten o'clock.

The second hyena followed its partner's paw and saw what the other hyena was talking about. It also saw Shere Khan walking toward them. The second hyena had quickly swallowed the meat it chewed in its mouth and quickly stared at each other.


A Few Moments Later...

Scar, the king of not only of Pride Rock, but also king of the lions and hyenas had lied down on his right side in the cave, bored. He didn't know what else to do. Whether to let play with dead animal bones or order more hyenas around. "Can't this day be any more... interesting?" Scar had pouted.

Suddenly... three hyenas known as Shinzi, Banzai and Ed had ran inside of the cave with urgent news. Ed was visibly trembling.

"Scar! Scar!"

"Ugh. Can't you leave me alone for about five minutes?" Scar asked, annoyingly.

"Scar! We're under attack!" Shinzi had yelled.

"What?" Scar had quickly rolled over to look at Shinzi.

"There's a giant orange cat with scars all over its body. It just came out of nowhere and attacked us!" Shinzi had yelled, urgently.

"A giant orange cat, you say..." Scar had begun to think. He started to feel a bit curious.

"That's right! And this new guy is really strong, too! He took out a few of our guys with just a few swipes!" Banzai said, while shaking.

"A few swipes, eh? Well, then... I'll just have to see it for myself." Scar had then stood up on all four of its legs and begun running out of the cave. "Go gather the lionesses."

"Roger that!" Banzai had replied as he saluted to Scar.


One Moment Later...

Scar had walked out of the cave and stood at the edge of the rock on Pride Rock. He looked down at the flat ground surface just to see a group of his hyena minions surrounding and attacking a large orange cat.

Four hyenas had already been killed by Shere Khan.

"Oh?" Scar had laid eyes from the high ground on Pride Rock. Lightning had struck behind Scar within the background.

Suddenly... After catching one hyena with its orange left tiger paw and pressing its head down to the dirt, Shere Khan had stopped fighting, momentarily, and looked up at Pride Rock. He stared at a particular area of Pride Rock and had spotted a brown-furred lion with a black mane. "Hmm..." He then let the hyena under its paw go as he found someone more... interesting.

The two large cats had made eye contact with each other from a distance.
