Disclaimer: I do not own The Lion King
Prologue: I Just Can't Wait to be King.
Zazu and the kids were heading on their way to the water whole.
"So where we really going?" Nala asked curious of their real destination. The whole reason they were heading this way was because Simba said he heard about this great place.
"An Elephant Graveyard!" Simba whispered back.
"Wow!" She said a little too loudly, causing him to shush her.
"Shhh! Zazu!"
"Right! So how are we gonna ditch the dodo?"
"Oh, I know how!" Simba said, and the two began discussing their plans in secret.
Zazu looked back at the two cubs when he heard them whispering. Aww, they just looked so cute together. Oh! They'll make a fine King and Queen someday. "So just look at you. Little seeds of romance blossoming in the Savannah, your parents will be thrilled! What with you being betrothed in all."
"Be-what?!?" Simba looked at him confused.
"Betrothed! Intended! Affianced!" Zazu emphasized.
Simba and Nala shared a look. "Meaning~?" Nala asked still not knowing where he's going with this.
"One day you two are going to be married!" Zazu stated proudly. This, as you can imagine, didn't exactly go over well with the kids.
"Yuck!"
"Eww!"
"I can't marry her! She's my friend!" Simba stated as a matter-of-factly.
"Yeah, and it would be so weird!" Nala agreed.
"Well sorry to bust your bubble, but you two turtledoves have no choice! It's a tradition going back generations!" Zazu said proudly.
"Well when I'm King, that'll be the first thing to go!" Said Simba, giving Nala a wink.
"Not so long as I'm around!" Zazu said undeterred.
"Well, in that case, you're fired!" Simba shot back cooley.
"Mm, Nice try! But only the king can do that!" Zazu stated.
"Well, he is the future King!" Nala interjected.
"Yeah, so you have to do what I tell you!" Simba said, poking him in the chest.
Zazu was starting to get a bit annoyed. "Not yet I don't, and with an attitude like that, I think you're shaping up to be a pretty pathetic King indeed!" He said crossing his wings.
"Hmm? Not the way I see it!" Simba smiled cockley and then pounced in front of him.
Simba: I'm gonna be a mighty king
So enemies beware
Zazu: Well, I've never seen a king of beasts
With quite so little hair
Simba: I'm gonna be the main event
Like no king was before
I'm brushing up on looking down
I'm working on my roar
Zazu: Thus far, a rather uninspiring thing
Simba: Oh, I just can't wait to be king
Zazu: You've rather a long way to go, young master, if you think-
Simba: No one saying, "do this"
Zazu: Now when I said that, I
Nala: No one saying, "be there"
Zazu: What I meant was
Simba: No one saying, "stop that"
Zazu: Look, what you don't realize
Simba and Nala: No one saying, "See here"
Zazu: Now see here!
Simba: Free to run around all day
Zazu: Well, that's definitely out
Simba: Free to do it all my way
Zazu: I think it's time that you and I
Arranged a heart to heart
Simba: Kings don't need advice
From little horn-bills for a start
Zazu: If this is where the monarchy is headed
Count me out
Out of service, out of Africa
I wouldn't hang about
This child is getting wildly out of wing
Simba: Oh, I just can't wait to be king
Everybody look left
Everybody look right
Everywhere you look I'm
Standin' in the spotlight
Zazu: Not yet!
Everyone: Let every creature go for broke and sing
Let's hear it in the herd and on the wing
It's gonna be King Simba's finest fling
Oh, I just can't wait to be king
Oh, I just can't wait to be king
Oh, I just can't wait to be king
As to how Zazu found himself underneath a Rino, will forever remain a mystery to him. "I beg your pardon madam, but GET OFF! Simba? Nala!?"
Simba and Nala were quite proud of themselves. The plan actually worked. "Alright! It worked!" Simba boasted proudly.
"We lost him!" Nala said smiling.
"I... I'm a genius!" Simba said proudly.
"Hey genius, it was my idea!" Nala said annoyed.
"Yeah, but I pulled it off!" He said smugly.
"With me!" She smiled at him playfully.
"Oh yeah!" Simba pounced her playfully, only to end up being pinned.
"Pinned ya!" Nala smiled triumphantly.
"Hey let me up!" He said pushing her off him. Still feeling quite mischievous, pounced her again, causing the two of them to role on the ground and even down a small dip without noticing until Nala had him pinned down again.
"Pinned ya again!" She smiled in satisfaction.
A puff of steam suddenly got their attention, causing them to look up in surprise. Wait this was...
Simba smiled when he realized where they were. "This is it. We made it!" He and Nala began to look around.
"Woah!" They both awed at once.
Little did they know, the dangers that lied ahead of them.
