"You don’t understand, Uru..." the king finally mumbled. "The only thing Taka will cause is more trouble for us all! I was wise to choose Mufasa as my heir..."

Uru’s jaw dropped. "What!? How dare you!" she roared furiously and her red eyes narrowed. Her voice lowered to a growl. "If you had followed the rules, Taka would have been the future King..."

Ahadi winced and turned around, staring at her, but did not speak.

Uru snarled. "You know what I’m talking about." she said and lowered her voice again. "He was the first born..."

Ahadi froze. That was the very fact he had denied for such a long time... And now it was spoken out loud! "Uru!" he roared, furious, "You shut your mouth right now!"

Uru growled and showed her white teeth. "You can’t tell me what to do! You shabby fool of a King!" she finished and turned around to leave, her long tail swishing furiously behind her.

"YOU DON'T UNDERSTAND!"

A deathly silence followed Ahadi's roar. Uru turned around again and stared at him. She was both afraid and furious now. But mostly furious. Ahadi took a step back, surprised at the volume of his own voice, and made an attempt to calm himself down. However, the damage had already been done. The very subject of the argument had been listening to the whole conversation, hidden behind the rocks. Now the young cub ran off, tears streaming down his face. He did not want to hear any more.

"Uru..." Ahadi murmured in a low voice after calming himself down somewhat. "The night before our cubs were born... I had a dream. My mother came to me in my dream. And she said... she said a dark prince would be born. His rule would bring chaos and ruin upon our lands... And then... then I saw our sons. My mother knew..." He paused and looked away, as if gathering courage to say what would come next. "Uru, Taka must never be king."

Uru still stared. But now her eyes showed mostly disbelief. She knew how superstitious Ahadi was, and how important the "Great Kings and Queens of the Past" were to the Pride Land monarchs, but... this?

-----------

Classic case of 'One often meets one's destiny on the road to avoid it'. Poor superstitious Ahadi. *dramatic voice* He had no idea what wheels he set in motion on that fateful day...

Sort of a continuation of a drawing I made in... 2006? If you looked at it recently you might even see that I've copied some of the text I wrote for it here xP I'm planning to redraw that picture sometime too.

So basically, in my TLKverse , Taka (Scar) was the older of the brothers, but because of this dream that Ahadi had, he would not allow Taka to become the heir to the throne out of fear that the Pride Lands would be brought to ruin under Taka's rule. Which eventually happened too... Because Ahadi tried to make sure Taka would never be king? Maybe...

I'd write even more on my little fanfiction, but my mind is mush right now due to my tiredness, so I'll save that for another time xP
