The Lion King Fanon Wiki

[GASP!]


I managed to get my head above water while coughing madly, water coming out of my mouth and fur wet beyond belief, my mane tuft covering my eyes as I quickly used my paws to brush them back. Looking around, I noticed a head in the water..oh god, it’s Kiara!


I quickly grabbed the drowning lioness by the scruff and pulled her to an area of flat ground, dropping her while shaking myself fast enough for all the water to be out. When I turned back to her, I noticed she was unconscious, causing me to sigh and walk over to her, then hoist her onto my back and start walking through the caves.


Someone like Timon or Pumbaa would have panicked when they saw they were trapped, but I am not like those people. I am not afraid of being trapped in caves and I will make sure to get both me and Kiara out of these caverns no matter what.


Confident one, are you?


Well, I wasn’t really like that before.  I was originally angered easily and lacked proper confidence, having always been bullied and treated like dirt. I had some friends to support me, yes, but only those friends and my passion for writing about experiences caused me to regain my confidence.


And now here you are, not even scared of being trapped in a cave.


Well, to be fair, being trapped in a cave is only the second worst thing to happen to me since I got transported to this world.


Suddenly, I hear a groan as Kiara was slowly starting to wake up when we ended up getting to a part of the cave that was relatively lit up. I smiled as she opened her eyes tiredly.


‘’C-Connor?’’ Kiara said before coughing out water, ‘’Where are we?’’


‘’Still in the caves, Kiara.’’ I said as we looked at all of the diamonds and gold we ended up finding, ‘’Gold? What’s it doing here?’’


‘’Gold?’’ Kiara asked confusingly and I sighed.


‘’A rare mineral that is found in certain parts of my world and apparently yours as well.’’ I said while grabbing a rock that was covered by gold and looking around, ‘’Apparently you also have diamonds.’’


‘’Whoa…’’ Kiara said in wonder when I showed her the gold rock, ‘’And it was all the way down here?’’


‘’Your guess is as good as mine.’’ I said as I threw the rock aside and set Kiara down, who managed to get to her paws and walk around, marvelling at the diamonds and gold that were in the caves while we walked through the area.


‘’All of this is in your world?’’ Kiara asked and I nodded, ‘’How is that even possible?’’


‘’You’re a world of talking animals, an existing monarchy, an oasis roughly the size of the pride lands, a lion obsessed with the person she followed amongst others and you’re asking ME how this is even possible?’’ I asked, purely baffled, ‘’Do you even know your world, Kiara?’’


‘’Uh…’’ Kiara said, confused as to what I said, causing me to growl before sighing.


‘’Whatever, let’s just go.’’ I sighed before continuing to walk with my younger friend following, ‘’Sooner we get out of here, the better.’’


Purely the hundreds of media you have watched have caused a suspension of disbelief, Connor.


There are a lot of stuff I don’t believe in, Mohatu. Don’t let my love of media fool yo-OH JESUS!


Turning the corner, I stopped in my tracks when I saw a lion’s skeleton...well, that’s a shame. Quickly, I pushed Kiara further in the caves, away from the skeleton to have her avoid seeing it and possibly losing her innocence.


‘’H-HEY!’’ Kiara protested while I pushed her away from the areawith the skeleton, ‘’What gives?’’


‘’Don’t protest, let’s just keep trying to get out of here.’’ I said before Kiara reluctantly kept walking.


----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------


As we kept walking, I noticed a bright light shining on the cave, then turned the corner to see an opening out of the caves.


‘’YES!’’ I yelled, relieved, ‘’We can get out of here!’’


‘’YAY!’’ Kiara said before running towards the opening, only for me to see a shadow of a lion that looked...familiar.


‘’KIARA, WAIT!’’ I said before pouncing on her, tackling her and preventing her from running out of the opening as the shadow ran off.


‘’Wha-?’’ Kiara started, ‘’Who and what was that?’’


‘’I dunno.’’ I said as I walked out of the caverns and through the opening, then looked around to see a light brown and black lion running into the distance, out of the pridelands, ‘’Kovu?’’


Not quite, my friend. Kovu is a cub..that was an adult lion...one that I know all too well.


Who is he?


..The brother of Mufasa.


Instantly, I froze at what he said. N-No, it can’t be! How is he-...Scar is still alive?


Unfortunately so...we must inform Simba and Nala in order to let them know about this and find a way to act.


Simba and Nala won’t even believe me!


Doesn’t hurt to try.


Fair enough.


As I turned to Kiara, noticing her confusion at my facial expressions and sudden silence and brief lack of motion, I sighed.


‘’D-Do you know who that is?’’ Kiara asked, worried at my sudden change.


‘’I-It’s Scar.’’ I gasped before instantly bolting towards Pride Rock, ‘’COME ON, KIARA!’’


‘’On my way!’’ Kiara shouted, following me as Timon and Pumbaa ran by us.


‘’Oh, you’re still here.’’ I groaned at the two friends, who looked at me.


‘’Of course, kid!’’ Timon said, waving his arms up and down, ‘’We couldn’t find you for ages!’’


That ability was only able to knock them out for an hour...you were trapped in the caves for two.


Makes sense.


‘’We saw Scar running off into the distance.’’ I said, using all of the strength of my legs to push me towards pride rock as Timon laughed, but Pumbaa looked understandably worried.


‘’There is no way that Scar can still be alive.’’ Timon laughed, ‘’The guy was eaten by hyenas!’’


‘’Apparently not’’ I sighed as we reached pride rock.


Apparently, more has changed than I realized.


You think?


‘’SIMBA!’’ I called, running up to the den where Simba and Nala looked at me and Kiara worriedly.


‘’Daddy, we saw someone at some caves!’’ Kiara said, not wanting to reveal what caves.


‘’Who?’’ Simba asked and I spoke up.


‘’Scar, Simba.’’ I replied, causing him to look at me with a raised eyebrow, ‘’We were walking out of the caves when we saw Scar running off out of the pride lands.’’


‘’No.’’ Simba said, ‘’That’s not possible, Scar is DEAD!’’


‘’I know what I saw, Simba.’’ I said, clearing my throat as the king looked at me in doubt, but saw I was being sincere, causing his eyes to widen.


‘’H-How?’’ Simba said before running into the den, leaving Nala  to walk over to us.


‘’Thank you for giving us this information, kids.’’ Nala said to us before walking after Simba, leaving it just being me and Kiara, since Timon and Pumbaa ran off.


‘’So what now?’’ Kiara asked and I sighed.


‘’I don’t know…’’
