Mheetu had run from everything and everyone he loved... But he did not do so because of exile... But out of self sacrifice. Scar had grown very aggressive towards him, and of course his mother and younger sister would step in and protect him. But as Scar grew more desperate, the more brutal his attacks were becoming. One day in particular, Scar tried to kill him yet again... Like any mother would, Sarafina stepped in. Scar didn't hold back, and it took several lionesses to pry the male off of his mother. This is when Mheetu decided he had to leave. He left in the middle of the night, and by the time day broke, he was in the desert... He looked back from where he came, thinking of his mother, not even knowing that he was following the very same path Simba had in his own exile.
