[Closed] Before The Beginning

Sarafina smiled at Mufasa, "Thanks for talking to me Mufasa, I think one day you will be an amazing king, I'd be very happy with my daughter to take the throne with your future son." Sarafina said before bowing her head slightly and running to her mother, "Mother!" She said excited to see her mom.

Johari heard her daughter and came to her. "What, Sarafina?" she asked. Uru looked at Taka. "Taka, I'm sorry for what your fool of a father did and said to you. I think this counts as an abuse of power and must be dealt with as such. You see, Taka, the lionesses and I plan to remove him from power and put myself in his place until Mufasa is ready to be king," she said.

[Maleficent]

"Mufasa is going to grow up to be the king father is," Taka protested. "Why can't I take the place as king? I'm ready for it, I'm prepared."

[KingKovu44]

Uru shook her head. "I cannot break the order of succession, but I can promise you protection from your father. Unlike him, I truly love you," she stated.

[Maleficent]

Taka sighed and slowly resigned, "Alright then. I think you're the only one who does."

[KingKovu44]

Uru shook her head. "Taka, don't say that. Now, We are going to attack your father, not to kill him, but to show him how you felt when he struck you and left you with that scar," he said.

[Maleficent]

"But it's true," Taka protested. "Who else likes me?" He thought about Uru's plan and asked excitedly, "May I help? I could be useful."

[KingKovu44]

Uru smiled at her son's enthusiasm. "Very well. Do whatever you think you can. Just don't get too close until we've weakened him," she stated.

[Maleficent]

"Alright," Taka replied with a nod. "What about Bianca and Mufasa? Will they help as well?"

[KingKovu44]

Uru nodded. "We'll need all the help we can get. Try to recruit them as well," she stated.
