It was another rainy day in Seattle. I was running through the neighborhood looking for my friend, Dominique's, house. The rain was so heavy I couldn't see a thing. I've been running for over 2 hours. I sighed and leaned up against, I guess a fence. I examined my soaked shoes for a little and then looked up. This was turning out to be the worst day ever! There was a squeaking noise behind. I snapped around and saw a bright light in my face. A person called, "What're you doing out here come in? Don't worry, I don't mind! Just follow the light."
I did as the person said. I followed where the light shined. As I got closer, the face seemed to get clearer. The person stepped aside, so I can get in. When I got inside I looked at the person on my right. The person is a woman; she had dark brown hair, hazel eyes, caramel colored skin. She also was wearing a blue t-shirt and grey sweatpants. My eyes widened. I questioned, "Dominique?"
She looked at suspiciously; then her eyes widened as well. She beamed, "Leanne!"
We both hugged each other. When she pulled away I glared at her. The smile on her face faded quickly. Then, she somehow finally noticed I was soaking wet. She smiled, "Sorry. I didn't know it would rain today. I was busy getting Da'Shawna for the bus."
I looked at the clock and it was 11:45 a.m. Da'Shawna would be getting out in 10 minutes; adding another 5 minutes to get home, assuming the streets aren't flooded. We entered the house further into the Den.
There was a beige couch up against a wall, a sliding backdoor/window, with white blinds, the floor was hardwood, there are wooden shelves on the southern wall, there were pictures of her family, there was a beige recliner near the T.V., and it was a 40inch. There was also a radio on the couch; I can't believe I didn't notice it before. It was blasted with the song I'm Sexy and I Know It playing. Luckily, I was used to it.
I asked her to show me to her bathroom so I can dry off.
*Bathroom*
I saw my reflection. My blackish brown hair was dripping. I sighed, "Well, It could be worse." I grabbed the towel and went out of the bathroom. Not wanting to keep Dominique waiting.
*Den*
Dominique was putting in a movie. I asked, "What're you watching?"
She quickly held up the DVD case. I looked at the title, it read Lion King. I thought about it. It's been a while since I've seen the movie. I just simply nodded and went into her kitchen.
15 minutes…
I brought a bowl full of popcorn and 2 liters of soda. I put the popcorn between us and started the movie.
{Open, black screen}
{Start nature sound effects}
{Cue Castle screen}
{Fade to black}
{Cue lion roar in the background, calling the animals to gather to Pride Rock for the Ceremony.}

{The Circle of Life ground forms in the BS's and holds its pattern for eight bars. It is a non-chordal BS part. The progressions are in the medium ranges of the strings. There are various pans and camera views of African animals, all moving. Coinciding with the FS pickup in the eighth bar, we first view the giraffes, panning to a long shot of all the animals in their procession}
[The Circle of life text]
FS: From the day we arrive on the planet
And, blinking, step into the sun
There's more to see than can ever be seen
More to do than can ever be done
{Camera is panning and jumping to elephants, zebras, ants, birds, storks, etc...}
FS: There's far too much to take in here
More to find than can ever be found
But the sun rolling high
Through the sapphire sky
Keeps great and small on the endless round
I laughed, Dominique looked at me confusingly. She asked, "What's so funny?"
I answered, "I always thought that woman singing was a guy." She rolled her eyes and kept watching.
10 minutes later…
{Scar walks calmly through sheets of flame and gas into the camera over the opening bit of the song}
{Scar paces slowly around Ed, who is chewing on the remnants of the zebra leg}
Scar: {Full song} I know that your powers of retention
Are as wet as a warthog's backside
But thick as you are, pay attention
My words are a matter of pride
It's clear from your vacant expressions
The lights are not all on upstairs
{On 'Pay attention', Scar angrily swats the bone away; Ed comes to abrupt attention}
{Waving his paw in front of Ed's blank eyes to make his point; Ed's tongue lolls out}
Scar: But we're talking kings and successions
Even you can't be caught unawares
{Shenzi and Banzai are laughing on a ledge behind him; on "you," Scar turns and leaps at them, throwing them backward onto a pair of geysers, which then erupt, throwing the two hyenas into the air.}
{In the next verse, Scar is strutting theatrically along a ledge which runs around back to the floor.}
Scar: So prepare for a chance of a lifetime
Be prepared for sensational news
A shining new era
Is tiptoeing nearer
Shenzi: And where do we feature?
Scar: {Grabbing Shenzi's cheek} Just listen to teacher
{Shenzi rubs her cheek, which is now bruised red}
Scar: I know it sounds sordid
But you'll be rewarded
When at last I am given my dues
And injustice deliciously squared
Be prepared!
{Scar leaps up beside Ed, who is again chewing on the bone, and here kicks him off the ledge}
{The three hyenas land in a pile of bones and are submerged; they reappear, each with a different horned skull on his head.}
{Spoken}
Banzai: Yeah, Be prepared. Yeah-heh... we'll be prepared, heh. ...For what?
Scar: For the death of the king.
Banzai: Why? Is he sick?
{Scar grabs Banzai by the throat}
Scar: No, fool - we're going to kill him. Simba too.
{Dropping Banzai back onto the floor}
Shenzi: Great idea! Who needs a king?
Shenzi (and then Banzai): {Sing-song voices, dancing around Banzai} No king! No king! la-la-la-la-laa-laa!
Scar: Idiots! There will be a king!
Banzai: Hey, but you said, uh...
Scar: I will be king! ...Stick with me {triumphant, toothy grin}, and you'll never go hungry again!
Shenzi and Banzai: Yaay! All right! Long live the king!
{Camera reveals hundreds of more hyenas in the shadows.}
All Hyenas: Long live the king! Long live the king!
Dominique shouted, "Long live the dead king!"
I laughed, "They can't hear you. You do know that, right?" She looked at me like I was a mental patient. I tried not to pay attention to her stare, and went back to the movie.
All the sudden the T.V. started getting fuzzy. I asked, "Is there something wrong?" Dominique shrugged. She started pressing the remote and nothing happened. Before she could turn off the T.V. a black hole formed into it. I don't know about Dominique but, I started screaming. She consoled, "Will you relax. It's inside the screen, so It can't hurt us."
Right after she said that the T.V. screen broke. The black hole started sucking everything in. The popcorn flew in. Dominique screamed, "No! Not the popcorn!"
I smacked her head. "Seriously!" I screamed at the top of my lungs. I felt my body getting torn off the couch. But, I didn't want to get stuck in there. I actually was more surprised, that, no one in the neighborhood was coming to help. The black hole came closer to us. We swore we heard it say, "Come in. Everything is going to be fine."
We looked at each other. We took a deep breath and let go of the couch. We both screamed to the top of our lungs.
Then, there was nothing but, darkness.
