curtsy." said Scar

"Oh, Simba. Scar, he's pure evil. He missed your ceramony, pure evil!" said Nala

Scar turned away and started to leave. Simba and Nala laughed a little bit. "Don't turn your back on ME, Scar." warned Mufasa

"Well, that was a little bit more cheery." said Simba

"Oh, no, Mufasa, maybe YOU shouldn't turn your back on ME." said Scar

"IS THAT A CHALLENGE!?" roared Mufasa, coming up to Scar

Nala swallowed seeing how much so few words hurt Mufasa.

"Temper, temper, I wouldn't DREAM of challenging YOU." said Scar

"Hey, that's Zazu there!" said Simba

"Pity! Why not?" asked Zazu, flying up

"So that's where Zazu got his bad temper with Scar from." said Nala

"Well, as far as brains go, I got the lion's share, but when it comes to brute strength, I'm afraid I got the shallow end of the gene pool." said Scar

"Well, we know that changed." said Simba

Scar left.

"Yeah, freaky, huh?" asked Nala

"There's one in every family sire, TWO in mine actually, and they always manage to ruin special occasions." said Zazu

"What is he going to do with him?" asked Simba

"What am I going to do with him?" asked Mufasa

"He'd make a very handsome throw rug." said Zazu

"Great minds think alike." said Nala

"Zazu!" said Mufasa

"Wow, Pride Rock looks nice in this scene." said Simba

"And just think! When he gets dirty, you can take him out and BEAT him." said Zazu

"How the **** can you think about beating Scar?" asked Nala

They left the scene, with Mufasa laughing. "I guess they got used to it after a while." said Simba

Mufasa grabbed the romote and paused it. "Hey, can I watch too?" asked Mufasa

"Sure." said Simba

Rafiki is seen painting a picture of Simba in his tree, when Mufasa hits play.

"That was a horrible time for me, when you were a baby." said Mufasa

"Hmm.....ah heh heh heh heh heh.....Simba." said Rafiki

"That monkey doesn't give a **** about anyone besides himself, does he?" asked Simba

The picture fades, along with the tree. Simba sighed with relief. Simba is next seen as a cub, as he comes up and looks at Pride Rock, then runs into the cave and pounces over lionesses. Nala looked at him sitting on the couch.

"Dad! Dad! C'mon dad, we gotta go! Get up!" said cub Simba

"Yep, that was pretty much cubhood." said adult Simba

"Omph!" said one of the lionesses

"Sorry! Omp." said cub Simba

"Yeah, you never said sorry for ramming over my mother." said Nala

"Dad? Dad. Dad, dad, dad, dad, dad, dad, dad, dad, dad, dad-" said cub Simba

"Hakuna Matata, Nala." said Mufasa watching T.V.

"Your son.....is awake." said Sarabi

Simba and Nala laughed, watching the scene.

"Before sunrise, he's YOUR son." said Mufasa, on the T.V.

Mufasa just glared.

"Dad? Dad! C'mon dad, (He pulled on Mufasa's ear) Da-whoah!" said Simba

"Pretty calm as a cub, huh?" asked Nala "You sound ****** off."

Simba fell off screen and came back and head-butted Mufasa. Mufasa looked sleepily at his son.

"You PROMISED." said cub Simba

"Yeah, Simba, you sound ******." said Mufasa off screen

"Ok, ok, I'm up." said Mufasa, ON screen

"So, that's what you really thought about me when you were grumbling?" asked Simba

"Yeah!" said cub Simba

"I really didn't want that to change." said adult Simba

Mufasa, on screen, yawned. Mufasa and Sarabi followed cub Simba as he made his way up Pride Rock. Sarabi stopped part of the way through as Mufasa and Simba went up Pride Rock. Mufasa and Simba are seen on Pride Rock.

"Oh, Simba, nothing will change the bond that you and your father have." said Nala

"Look, Simba. Everything the light touches is our kingdom." said Mufasa

"Wow." said cub Simba

"It wasen't that amazing." said the Mufasa on the couch

"A king's time as ruler rises and falls like the sun. Someday, Simba, the sun will set on my time here, and will rise, with you as the new king." said Mufasa on the T.V.

"Look who's 'ruler' now." said adult Simba

Nala glared at Simba. Mufasa had a look of dread. Simba glared at Nala, then Nala looked confused.

"And this will all be MINE?" asked cub Simba

Mufasa off screen looked a little embarrased. "Everything." said Mufasa, on screen

"Er, mind my asking, why are you two looking so embarrased?" asked Nala, and Simba whispered into Nala's ear. Her eyes went big.

"Everything the light touches." said cub Simba "What about that shadowy place?"

"It was everything the light touches after that." said adult Simba

"That's beyond our borders, Simba. You must never go there." said Mufasa on screen

"You know that wasen't convincing for Simba OR you." said Nala

"But I thought a king could do whatever he wants." said cub Simba

"Yes, kings don't need the drama of rules!" said Mufasa off screen

"Oh, there's more to being king than getting your way all the time." said Mufasa on screen

"You were trying to convince me there's more, weren't you?" asked adult Simba

Mufasa started to walk back down Pride Rock.

"Everything you see excists in a delicate balance. As king, you have to understand that balance, from the crawling ants to the leaping antelopes." said Mufasa on screen

"It took you two years to figure out that balance Simba." said Nala

"But, dad, don't we eat the antelope?" asked cub Simba

Mufasa and Simba watched in awe, and Nala was holding back tears.

"Yes, Simba, but let me explain. When we die, our bodies become the grass, and the antelope eat the grass, and so we are all connected in the great, circle, of life." said Mufasa on screen

"So, that's what you talk about on your little 'walks'." said Nala

"Good morning, sire!" said Zazu, coming up to them

"Looks like he finally came to his senses, that Zazu." said Mufasa, off screen

"Good morning, Zazu." said Mufasa on screen

Simba smiled and nodded.

"Checking in.....with the morning report." said Zazu

"Fire away." said Mufasa on screen

All three laughed.

"Well, the buzz from the bees is that the leopards in a bit of a spot." said Zazu

Simba and Nala laughed hysterically.

"Oh, really?" asked Mufasa on screen

All three burst into laughter.

Cub Simba tried and failed to pounce on a grasshoper. Nala had tears in her eyes. ".....and the apes are going APE over this. Giraffes act as if above it all....."

Simba gasped and snapped back into reality.

"What are you doing, son?" asked Mufasa on screen

"Go, Simba!" said Nala

"Pouncing." said cub Simba

"You just said what you were doing without fighting?" asked Nala

"Yes." said adult Simba

"Let an old pro show you how it's done." said Mufasa on screen

".....the tick birds are pecking on the elephant, I told them to forget but they CAN'T....." said Zazu

"How ironic." said adult Simba

"Zazu, turn around." ordered Mufasa on screen

"You always told me YOU said that." said Nala

"Yes, sire." said Zazu, turning around "As they always say, cheetah's never prosper."

"Hey, what ended up happening to Zazu, that his voice changed?" asked Mufasa, pausing the movie

"Cheetahs killed him, we had to replace him." said Simba

The T.V. suddenly turned black. Nala was unable to turn it back on. "Dang, it broke." said Nala "Oh well, we watch the rest later."

THE END
