Scar could see that he was outnumberd. He ran with the hyenas.

Sarabi walked to simba ande nuzzled him then bowed and so did the others.

Stone had been out looking for food when he heard the ripping roars coming from the rocks, he ran with all the speed of a gazelle. But by the time he got there a new scene unfolded before his eyes. Scar was hightailing it out of the pridelands and someone new was being bowed to by the others. Oddly the red-maned lion looked familiar to stone, but he couldn't quite figure out where he'd seen him before, he came up in front of him, and lowered his head. A sign of uncertainty and respect. Though upon raising his head stone looked directly into simbas eyes. He knew now who it was. "Simba?" he questioned just to be sure. His white mane bristled nervously.

"Stone is that you?" he asked.

Scar retreated to the badlands. He sat before the hyena's. "They may have woon the battle, but the war is far from over! We shall reclaim pride rock, no matter what the cost"

Stone punced on the older lion like a cub on his best friend. "Yes!" he called excitedly. "I thought you were dead, everyone across the plains said you were dead." his shining golden eyes gleamed in the rising sun. "Where have you..." he got off his friend and smiled. "Never mind, all that matters is your here now...thank goodness."

Scar went away to lick his wounds.

"Yes well scar manipulated us all but thats behind as it is good to see you too. I will make sure the land prospers again," he said. "It is nice to see you again Stone," Nala said. Nala used to hang around stone and simba even when they didnt want her too.

"Ah ha, no wonder scar wouldn't let me out of his sight." stone snickered and ruffled nala's head fur with his paw. "He knew i'd talk to you to much." stone sat and let a light smile cross his moon-white muzzle. "I'm glad you're going to fix this barren wasteland up, hopefully we can get the herds to want to come back through." with that he stood and strecthed out. "It will be difficult at first, but in time i'm sure it will happen."

Scar planned out his revenge. It would take time, but pride rock would be his once again.

"Simba Nala and i could go in the morning to try and find the herds to try and get them back," sarabi said. "that would be a great idea," he said.

Stone nodded. "And I will go to the badlands, and make sure the hyenas have left." he looked up at the rising sun. "Well, I'm guessing it is already tomorrow." a low chuckle passed his maw. "I'll go now and check things out."

"and we can go check for herds," Nala said and she and sarabi ran off towards the land behind the pride land.

Scar could see Stone approaching the badlands. He prepared the hyena's for an ambush.

Stone could smell scar and the hyenas now, before approaching them to far he called out. "Scar! Psttt." he whispered. "Call off your dang minions." he growled to the hyenas, he sensed them hiding within the rocks. his shining fur bristled with tangable irritation.

The lionesses exited the pride lands. The first herd she saw were zebras. she walked over to them and told them about simba being back and scar gone and they practicaly ran to the pride lands. Simba saw the zebras and new sarabi and nala would do good bringing them back. soon there were deer and gaziell and wilderbeast.

Scar and the hyenas surrounded Stone. "You made a big mistake in coming here, little boy" Scar and the hyenas all attacked at once.

Stone laughed as he was being attacked, he flung hyenas around as if it was a game. "Call them off scar, you know i'm stronger than them." he smiled revealing his razor-sharp teeth. "I must speak with you."

Timon popped up in front of nala. "Is the hyena's gone? is everything dangerous out of the area?" he asked, keeping most of his body inside the hole.

"Yes there gone," Nala said.

Scar stood, ready to strike. "Why would I talk with the likes of you?"

Nala ad sarabi killed two zebra and a deer and dragged them back to the rock and everyone began eating. soon the land would be green again.

Timon followed nala, keeping close to her and Sarabi, he was still a bit weary. "Have you seen a pig around anywhere?" he asked skeptically. "You didn't eat him did you?"

Stone let out a low chuckle. "I thought i was your wing man." he sat down and licked his paw.

"You know very well that I cannot trust anyone, least of all a friend of Simba" Scar growled.

Stone smiled and stretched. "Alright, I guess i won't be your spy after all." he began to slink out of scars layer.

"No timon we didnt eat him. Last i saw of Pumba was when we were fighting hyenas," nala said.
