[Closed] Out of the Pridelands

[UncoordinatedPisces]

Mufasa's spirit rose from his body, invisible to Scar, Zira and Simba. He watched as Simba began to run, he wanted to do something, but Mufasa knew he couldn't. Simba's fate was in his own hands. He looked up towards the sky, "Father, it is my time to join you"

Scar never took his eyes off Zira as he spoke. "Now, Zira, do you accept the offer to be my queen?" he asked.

[AdAstrα]

"Yes...of course!" she exclaimed, gazing at him. "I will never leave your side,Scar! Never.". Deep down, she felt guilty for Mufasa's death and for not having tried to prevent it from happening. She admired Scar a lot, but Mufasa had never done her any harm, she couldn't help but feel a little saddened by this whole thing. But she couldn't let Scar know. If he found out, he might decide not to make her his queen after all. And power was something Zira wanted. Badly.

OOC: All right, we now go into the beginning of the journey to the jungle.

"Excellent. Now, my queen, let us go and gather our allies and then we shall take Pride Rock," Scar replied. The usurper and his new queen then left, Shenzi, Banzai and Ed in tow. They went to gather the rest of the hyena army. Meanwhile, on the savannah, Simba had been running as fast as his little legs could carry him. Finally, he reached Pride Rock. He went up to the den entrance. “MOM!” he called out through his tears.

Sarabi suddenly felt a jolt in her heart. "Something is wrong." the thought. She looked to Sarafins who was sunning herself next to her. "Sarafina, I must find my mate and son" she said getting up

Simba ran up to his mother and buried his face on her left foreleg. “Mom, I went to the gorge and there was a wildebeest stampede and Dad died trying to save me. It was an accident, but Uncle Scar said it was my fault!” he told her, his throat a bit sore from crying.

Sarabi nuzzled her son. Her heart of the edge of breaking. She couldn't believe what her little Simba had just said. "Simba, where is Scar?" she said. She had to hear it from him.

[KingKovu44]

"He was in the gorge when I left," Simba answered. Just then, however, Scar arrived with Zira and the hyenas. He was angry to see Simba still alive. There was a moment of silence where Scar stared down Sarabi before finally speaking. "What's wrong, Sarabi? Are you too proud to acknowledge your new king?" he said.

With a quickness unknown to him, Scars' claws shot out and he grabbed at Simba, attempting to reach out and grab Simba from around Sarabi.

[AdAstrα]

Zira gazed at Sarabi and wondered what would happen next. She didn't want Scar to kill Simba, but she realised that if the two of them were to take over Pride Rock, he would have to.
