Title: Out of the Pridelands
Plot: This is an AU version of the first film in which Zira was present from the beginning. The story starts up at the beginning of the scene where Simba goes to see Scar after "The Morning Report". Everything plays out exactly as it did in the film right up until Mufasa's death, where Scar (and Zira) try to make Simba think he's responsible. Instead of falling for the deception, however, he runs back to Pride Rock and tells Sarabi everything. What follows is a confrontation with Scar in which he tries to take Simba and kill him, but Sarabi slashes him across the face. Sarabi and the other lionesses then take Simba and Nala and, following a ghostly visit from Mufasa, enter the jungle. There, the cubs grow and fall in love as adolescents. As adults, they return and retake the throne from Scar, who is killed by Zira and the hyenas after he betrays them. The hyenas flee to their own lands, having rejected Scar, and, by extension, Zira, who then runs off, vowing revenge against the royal family.
