Ch 15 Figuring Things Out

"Come on!" Nuka cried out. "We've gotta go!"

"We can't," Vitani cried out. "If we get caught it'll be the death of us!"

"Yeah sorry bro," Kovu chimed in. "You're on your own." With that the twins headed back to the Outlands while Nuka dashed after Sasha and Kike.

Meanwhile Kion was getting concerned. The golden Prince had a feeling that they were heading in the wrong direction. He also could have sworn that he had heard Sasha and Kike mention Scar when they were whispering amongst themselves. "Are you guys talking about Scar?" Kion asked suddenly, causing the sisters to look at him with surprise.

"Why in the world would we be talking about that tyrant?" Sasha demanded, narrowing her eyes at Kion.

"I don't know," Kion said with a shrug. "No one ever seams to want to talk about him. Every time I mention him around my parents they change the subject."

"Are you curious about him young one?" Kike asked, being careful not to overplay her hand.

"A little," Kion admitted, looking down at the ground. "I mean I know he's evil and all that. He murdered my grandfather. But I don't understand why though? What could my grandfather have done that made his own brother hate him so much?"

"You could ask Scar himself if you're so curious," Kike said.

"I've tried," Kion said. "But my dad won't allow me to go near him."

"Well your father doesn't have to know," Sasha said, surprising Kion. "Kike and I could arrange it so you could speak with Scar."

"Really?" Kion asked, looking at the sisters with wide eyes.

"Of course dear one," Kike said. "After all how are you to get the whole story without going to the source?"

"Cool," Kion said with a smile. "Can we go now?"

"Of course we can," Sasha said. With that the group changed direction and headed back to Pride Rock. None of them realized that Nuka was hiding in the bushes and had heard the entire conversation.

"I wonder what those two are up to?" the brown coated nine month old thought. "Well are least I know Kion's safe. I'd better head back home." With that Nuka headed back to his home before it got to dark.

A little while later Sasha, Kike and Kion had returned to Pride Rock. "Are you sure about this Sash'?" Kike whispered.

"This could work out really well," Sasha whispered back. "If we can get one of Simba's brats to turn on him that would be the icing on the cake."

"If you say so sis," Kike said with a sigh. "I just hope this works." By now they had reached the area where Scar was being held.

"We'll take over from here," Sasha said to the two lionesses that were guarding the cave. The pair nodded and walked back towards the main cave. Once they were gone Kion emerged from his hiding spot.

"Scar?" Kike called out. "You have a visitor."

"I am in no mood for visitors," Scar grumbled.

"Oh trust us Scar you'll want to see him," Sasha said, motioning with her head for Kion to step forward. Kion slowly stepped forward and Scar's eyes widened with surprise.

"Well now," Scar said, an evil grin going across his muzzle. "I am surprised to see you young one. After our last encounter I didn't think you'd want to come near me."

"I've got some questions for you," Kion said, forcing himself to speak boldly.

"Really?" Scar said, approaching the entrance of the cave. "Well don't keep me in suspense. What are your questions?"

"Well," Kion said. "I really only have one question. Why'd you kill your own brother? What did he do that made you hate him so much?"

"Well that is a long story," Scar said. "One that spans my entire childhood."

"Tell me," Kion said.

"Very well then," Scar said. "When I was child my father, Ahadi didn't like me much. In fact he hated me and gave me daily beatings to show that. At first Mufasa defended me and tried to protect me. But as we grew older that changed and he turned on me. And once Ahadi died and Mufasa became King he became just like Ahadi, cold and cruel to me. He forced me to be secluded away from the rest of the Pride. Then he had the gull to say I should have been grateful that he allowed me to stay and didn't banish me."

"That sounds awful," Kion said, shaking his head.

"Oh yes," Scar said with a nod. "And I hated my brother for that." Scar was about to say more when they group heard Simba call out for Kion.

"I better go," Kion said.

"Yes," Scar said. "You wouldn't want Daddy to find you talking to me."

"I'll be back," Kion promised as he dashed off. "I promise."

"You two have done well," Scar said to Sasha and Kike.

"Thank you my lord," the sisters said, bowing to Scar.

"I'm almost back to my full strength," Scar informed the sisters. "And once I am I'll have Simba's brat on my side. And then I shall have my revenge on my nephew once and for all!" With that Scar let out an evil laugh as he thought about the glorious day when vengeance would be his.

Two more months past and Kion, Kopa and Kiara were now six months old. Kion had been sneaking off almost everyday to talk with Scar and to his great surprise he was enjoying hearing his Great Uncle's stories. On this day Kion was heading for Scar's cave when he heard Simba talking with Sarabi and Sarafina. "Rafiki has told me that Scar is fully recovered from his injuries," the golden King was saying.

"Finally," Sarabi said with a grunt. "Now we can be rid of him."

"Yes," Simba said with a nod. "The only question is where to banish him too. I can't very well banish him to the Outlands."

"Yes I agree," Sarabi said with a nod of her own. "Scar and Zira can never be together again. That would be disastrous."

"You could send him to the Shadow Lands," Sarafina suggested. "Its not near the Outlands and its even more barren."

"That's a great idea Sarafina," Simba said with a smile. "Tomorrow we'll do the official banishing of Scar to the Shadow Lands." When Kion heard these words he gasped and his amber eyes went wide.

"I can't let that happen," the golden Prince thought as he raced to find Kike and Sasha. Luckily for him he soon found the sisters. And they were alone. "Kike!" Kion cried out, surprising the pair. "Sasha! Something terrible is going to happen!"

"What's wrong Kion?" Sasha asked, her voice high with concern.

"I heard my Dad talking with my Grandmothers," Kion said. "He said Scar is back to his full strength and that tomorrow he's going to banish Scar to the Shadow Lands!"

"This is terrible," Kike said, shaking her head.

"We can't let that happen," Sasha chimed in.

"We have to help Scar escape!" Kion cried out. "But I can't do it alone."

"And we'll help you Kion," Sasha said, looking at her sister, who nodded in agreement.

"We have to do it tonight," Kion said, making sure he kept his voice low.

"Agreed," Sasha said, keeping her voice low as well.

"Meet me by the cave after everyone has gone to bed," Kion whispered.

"We have to have a plan," Kike said.

"Don't worry," Kion said with a smile. "I know what to do." Without waiting for a response Kion took off.

"This is working out better than we could have hoped," Sasha said.

"We should tell Zira the good news," Kike said. With that the sister headed for the Outlands to inform Zira of the latest news.
