Nala looked out over the pridelands and sighed, "Where are you Simba?" She whispered turning her gaze to the stars. Nala started as she heard a chuckle. "Nala, Nala, Nala you must stop living in the past. Your beloved king is dead."
"Don't say that Scar." She snarled turning to glare at the brown lion. Scar sneered and padded to the young lionesses side. He brushed his tail under her chin and sighed. Nala pulled away. "What do you want?" She demanded. Scar took a deep breath and looked at Nala. "You are entering heat. You don't want that alluring scent hanging over you do you?" He said flirtatiously.

"Yes I do." Nala said quickly.

"Don't you want to be a mother?"

"Yes." She replied.

"Then why not allow me to put you out of your misery?" Scar continued, grinning as he spoke. "I don't want you to father my cubs." She snapped. "Well allow me to show you something first." Scar said to her.

"Fine." She said curtly. "Nothing funny though." Nala continued. Scar smiled angelically before turning and prowling around the side of pride rock. Nala frowned and followed the king reluctantly. He led her to a cave, it was rather small but large enough to raise a family. Nala fell to the ground shaking uncontrollably. Scar smiled and padded further in, "This will be you cave from now on."
"Thanks...I guess." Nala replied. Scar nodded.

"I'll let you get used to your new sleeping area." He said smiling innocently. Nala watched him leave then ran to the furthest corner and curled up. She looked at the cave wall and thought to herself. Tomorrow I'm going to find a male, any male. One that can overthrow Scar and regain peace to the pridelands. "I will!" She vowed to herself. With that Nala rested her head on her paws and fell asleep.

Late that night there was the gentle thrum of paws as they crept around. The moon sent its gaze down on a lone male. His jet black mane was ruffled gently in the wind. Scar crept round to Nala's cave concentrating on the ground. When he reached it he padded in and looked at the sleeping figure. He sniffed the air and there was the scent of a female in heat. Scar's lip curled back into an evil smile and he prowled to Nala. He gripped her around the neck gently and dragged her to the centre of the cave. She let out a moan and opened her eyes slightly. Scar smiled down at her, "Your bemused Nala go back to sleep I'm making my nightly check." Scar said in a low voice. Nala yawned and closed her eyes again. Scar grinned, it was so easy. Silently he crept round behind her. He nudged her tail out the way and grinned. Slowly he mounted her. Nala felt a pain as something crept deeper into her figure. She woke with a start to see Scar right up close to her. "Scar! What are you doing?!" She cried half screaming in agony.

"Helping you." he panted. Nala crept forward but Scar tightened his grip on her flank. All Nala could do was wait for the pain to stop. She turned her head to look awkwardly at Scar. His eyes were rolling back and his mouth was open wide. She let out another scream of pain as he launched himself into her. Gradually Scar began to stop. Nala moved her hind paw but winced at the pain. Scar crept to Nala's side and nudged her onto her back. He placed a paw on her and held her there. "Now you will have my child." He growled menacingly before standing up and padding out the cave. Nala rolled onto her belly and began to cry. She lay still and felt warm blood trickling onto the ground behind her.
