A little something I wrote based on Kig of the Beasts (AKA early TLK)

(based in the original TLK concept)

Scar and Mufasa circled each other.

Mufasa then looked at the bird. "It is time Zazu. Remember what I told you." Zazu nodded and sat on a low hanging branch next to worried Sarabi and a anxious Simba.

Suddenly the fight was on Scar lunged at Mufasa and Mufasa fought back.

Simba kept trying to remember the words of his father. 'On the back, at the end of the mane, crush the spine in your jaws' the words circled the adolescent's mind.

Mufasa had Scar backed up to the gouge. Suddenly Mufasa started to make his move but the hyena spies who had been watching gave a 'attack' yip and a few hyena's jumped onto Mufasa's back. Simba stood wanting to fight, but obviously he was no Mach for Scar.

"STOP IT NOW ! I WANT IT TO BE JUST THE TWO IF US!" Scar hissed.

"Yes, Scar." Bangie the Hyena prince who was sitting by replied. He called the others off and they scattered.

Mufasa shot his mate a worried glance.

"You ready?" Scar asked. He positioned himself.

And without anther word Mufasa responded with a lash at Scar. Mufasa knew he couldn't make another round with this male, it was now or never. He made his move.

Scar seen it coming and dodged Mufasa's pounce. He pinned Mufasa to the ground.

The hyena's grinned with pleasure. The lion's mouth hung open. Sarabi's eyes grew big. In a split second it happened.

SNAP!!

A snap of a spine a yell of pain. And laughter.

Sarabi looked at her teen son. "Run Simba!! Run now!"

Simba tore between fighting this lion and running did as he was told.

Running from his kingdom running from his mother, running from his friends and running from his dead Father.

Running. And not turning back.
