The Mane Problem
Chapter 8
Previous ChapterThe first thing Mkuu saw when he woke up was hyenas. Before even thinking about how they even got near Pride Rock, he ran to the lions and tried to wake the others up. Tried to. But none showed the slightest sign of waking up.
With little options left, Mkuu ran to the hyenas himself.
"What is it you want?" The cub asked.
"Look at that, the cub thinks he's all high and mighty, just 'cause he's the prince." Binti stated.
"Um...But isn't he?" Mwana asked.
"How did I get stuck with you as a brother?"
"Let's focus on- Hey! Where'd he go?" Mwana asked.
Mkuu was running as fast as he could.
They are not hurting Pinkie Pie, Mkuu thought, Not while I'm alive.
He ran into his den and quickly woke up Pinkie.
"Pinkie, run!" Mkuu yelled, but the hyenas came after him.
"What? How did they get in here?" Mkuu asked.
The two ran for Pinkie, but Mkuu defended her rather well. The two gave him many bites and scratches, but He quickly shook them off. Mwana bit him in the left hind leg, but Mkuu kicked him off.
Binti, being the brighter of the two, aimed for the throat, but Mkuu slashed her away.
After much fighting, the three were badly beaten. And yet, only Pinkie was still awake.
"Get out." Was all Mkuu said, after all three were badly bruised.
"Fine." Binti said, and started to leave, but she heard a bloodcurdling scream.
The scream someone being killed makes.
When Binti turned, she saw Mkuu's throat slit and her brother's claw dripping blood.
"Hmm...Maybe you aren't so useless." Binti said.
"Really?" Mwana asked.
"Yeah, now let's get out of here."
"I couldn't agree more."
The siblings turned around and saw the current king.
"You're lucky I'm actually letting you off, after invading our territory, and killing my son. But if you show you're faces around here again, if I see you two anywhere, if I even hear word about you two, you'll both be dead before you realize what happens."
"Oh, wait won't you need to know our names first? I'm Mwana, and this is Binti." Mwana stated.
"Brother, dear, you are a complete idiot." Binti noted.
"Get out." Kovu stated.
The hyenas ran.
"Some one get Rafiki!"
Pinkie looked over the body.
"Pinkie..." Mkuu stated, using the last of his breath.
"What?" The pony asked.
"I need to tell you that...nakupenda."
"What does that mean?" Pinkie asked.
But Mkuu wouldn't answer.
Mkuu would never again be alive in Africa.
"Well this is a mess." Twilight stated.
She had been practicing a few spells on Simba, and, of course, had accidentally used the wrong spell.
Simba was now standing before her as a cub.
"Why did this happen to me?" Simba asked. "I mean, this squeaky voice, this weird tuft, and why is my tail fur brown?"
"You realize you could be stuck like this for a while." Twilight stated. "So stop whining!"
"I'm not whining, I'm complaining!"
Meanwhile, in the bushes, Damien was waiting for the two. Beside him were Derpy and Angel.
"So we're all clear on the plan?" Damien stated.
"Yeah," They both said, rather reluctantly.
"What is it?" Damien asked.
"We're killing two cartoon icons!" Angel answered.
"You're doing what?" Derpy responded.
"We're not killing anybody!" Damien lied. "Now hurry up!"
Derpy reluctantly flew into the house.
"Twilight! Scootaloo is stuck in a well!" Derpy yelled at the unicorn pony.
Twilight had just finished up the reversal spell when she heard Derpy's announcement.
"Oh no! Poor Scootaloo! Come on, Simba, we have to save her." Twilight announced, and the two ran ahead.
"Who's Scootaloo?" Simba asked himself, then ran ahead to catch up.
When they got to where Derpy led them, they were surprised to see that there was no well, but were soon trapped inside a cage.
"Finally." Damien said as he came out. "After a thousand years of waiting, I can be free!"
"Wait," Derpy asked, "A thousand years?"
"I'm not an actual human." Damien explained to the cross-eyed pegasus. "I'm... well you can tell by my name what I am. And killing these two before sunset, is the only way I don't have to wait another thousand years to get on this stupid planet."
"I'm here!" Angel yelled, as he ran up with a shovel.
"What are you doing with that thing?" Damien asked.
"We're not digging a pit trap?"
"No, you idiot! Now get me my shotgun!"
"Things are looking bleak for our heroes, while Damien has revealed not to be a human and Angel has handed him a shotgun-"
"Why are you narrating?" Damien asked his partner.
"I don't know." answered Angel.
"Hold it!" the pegasus shouted. "I'm not letting you-"
Before she could say another word, she was hit with a tranquilizer dart.
"Now that was just uncalled for." Twilight stated.
"Shut up! I wish I had more than one dart with me, but I figured I'd only need it for the dumb one."
"Hey! Leave Derpy alone!" Twilight shouted.
"Twilight? I'm kind of scared. What if Fluttershy and the Cakes are worrying about me?" Simba said.
"A big old lion like you afraid of a human-like thing?" Twilight said. "Guess I have to do everything myself."
Twilight was about to use her magic to turn Damien into a toad, but it failed.
"You think I wouldn't take into account your magic? You ponies are all so stupid." Damien stated. "Flying, magic, controlling weather, it's not that impressive! Maybe a step above humans, but still below a lot of what I've seen. Now prepare for you two to have it all taken away from you."
"Hey Damien!" Angel cried.
"Yeah?" Damien responded.
"Shut up." And he hit his partner with a shovel, then opened the cage for the animals.
"You're lucky Damien isn't the only non-human around here." Angel stated.
"You're not also-" Simba started.
"Oh, no. But, they call me Angel for a reason. Some also call me Deuce. Deuce Xavier Machina."
"Please tell me I only heard that in my head." Twilight stated.
Suddenly, Damien rose.
"Did you think that you could stop me with a simple shovel?" He asked.
"No, I thought I could stop you with a simple lion." Angel said.
"Yeah!" Said Simba, then realizing what Angel just said, declared "Hey!"
"Oh, I didn't mean it like that."
"No regular lion could stop me!" Damien stated.
"Wait for it, this is my favorite part." Angel said, looking off to the side.
"Who are you talking to?" Twilight asked.
"I'm not just any lion." Simba stated, "I. Am. The. Lion. KING!"
Then he pounced on Damien and started beating him. Damien soon fell unconscious.
"I knocked him out?" Simba asked himself.
"No, that was me." Twilight said. "A simple knockout spell. Never thought I'd have to use it."
"Derpy, are you okay?" Angel asked.
"Yeah, I'm fine." Derpy responded. "I can't believe I fell for it though. Even for someone as ditzy as me, that's pretty dumb."
"Oh, no , Derpy. I don't think you're like that at all."
"Really?"
"Yeah, in fact let me tell you something." Angel pulled out a gold medal. "I'm able to give these to people who have been brave and clever."
"You think I'm brave and clever?"
"Derpy, I know just about everything, why would I lie to you? Now, remember, this can be used to call me anytime, for anything."
"Anything?"
"Anything. No matter how silly or mundane, I'll come and help you."
"Thanks."
"No problem, my little pony."Angel turned to Simba.
"You're lucky you stopped, the 'mane' problem here." Angel said. "Quick question, if you had to choose for your grandson to live with his family or his true love which would it be?"
"What kind of question is that?" asked Simba.
"A question to tell you that your grandson has to either be in this world or yours. But, he'll never find true love in your world. I think I'm sensing something about a war, but the details are vague. If you bring him here, it might just work out."
Simba considered this, then whispered his choice into Angel's ear.
"Well, you're choice." Angel said with dread in his voice. "By the way, I'm gonna wipe everyone's memory in five minutes, so you're choice wasn't the worst."
Suddenly there was a flash of light, and Simba was gone.
"I was hoping for a twist." Angel said, then smiled.
No one noticed the butterfly that landed on Simba's back.
In that same moment, Pinkie disappeared in a flash of light, too.
"Well, I guess that mean she's gone." Kiara stated.
"But where's Mkuu?" Vitani asked.
"I can answer that." The mandrill announced as he came in. "You see, it turns out Mufasa lied earlier when he told me Pinkie was here to liven up the Pride Lands."
"But then, what was she here for?" Kovu asked.
Rafiki smiled.
One day I shall have a handsome husband,
And a daughter of my own.
Then I'll send her to fetch the water,
And I'll be cooking in the home.

Mkuu opened his eyes.
"Where am I?" He asked.
He then saw a zebra, mixing potions like Rafiki.
"And who are you?" He asked
She chuckled.
"You're questions will soon be answered by me." She answered.
"But you first need rest, Lion of Everfree."
