Author's Note: This is a Parody Cross-over. In other words, it's making fun of a
cross between two different shows. CHARACTERS WILL -NOT- ACT LIKE THEY DO
ON THE SHOW. That is EXTREMELY important to remember as you read this. :)
It would also help if you are fairly well-versed with The Lion King; it makes it
all the more fun. :)

_________________________________________________________
[SCENE: The sun slowly sets. The clones; dressed up as many different African
animals; slowly walk towards Pride Rock.]
[Enter MacBeth (Author's Note: Pun not intended); he is running as fast as he
possibly can; gasping for air. When he gets to the base of Pride Rock, he
looks up at it; exasperated]
MacBeth- [Turns toward the cameras; still gasping] You have got to be
kidding....
Xanatos- [off- camera] Get going.
MacBeth- [muttering under his breath] Why didn't they just get a bird and let me
do a voice- over for it.
Xanatos- [still off camera] Too expensive.
[MacBeth glares at Xanatos; and begins to struggle up the Rock]
[Finally reaching the top; he collapses; looking up at Goliath; who's just
barely keeping from cracking up. Grumbling; MacBeth manages to stand up
and bow.]
Goliath- [gives a 'royal' nod; grinning] Have a nice trip?
MacBeth- [gasping] If I wasn't so tired, I'd throw you off this cursed rock....
[Hudson glides over and lands on Pride Rock, right next to Goliath, looks down
at MacBeth]
Hudson- What happened to him?
Goliath- [does the classic gargoyle 'wrist' shake] He had a rough trip.
[MacBeth tries to trip them as Goliath and Hudson walk away]
[SCENE: An area further down Pride Rock. Elisa stands in front of a cradle;
obscuring the view of whoever is in it.]
[When Goliath and Hudson approach, Goliath goes to Elisa and kisses the top of
her head. They move; so now everyone sees Brooklyn; looking a bit angry,
laying in it, his legs hanging off the end. He's got a pacifier in his
mouth, a pink bonnet on his head, and a diaper]
Brooklyn- [spits out the pacifier] [looks angrily behind camera] You are -dead-,
Xanatos.....
Xanatos- [still off- camera] Just say your lines.
Brooklyn- [growls] Mew. Mew.
[Goliath and Elisa can barely control themselves; snickering is heard behind the
cameras]
[Hudson moves towards Brooklyn; holding a gourd. Hudson tries to crack it open,
but it bursts open; sending the juice all over Brooklyn]
Hudson- Sorry, lad.....
[Goliath, Elisa and the entire camera crew are now cracking up]
Brooklyn- [wipes the juice from his face; scowling] If I wasn't getting a new
bike for this, Xanatos.....
Xanatos- [you guessed it; still off camera] Hudson, please continue.
Hudson- [bends down and picks up a handful of dust] [throws it on Brooklyn]
Brooklyn- [sneezes; starts rubbing at his eyes] AGH!! YOU GOT IT IN MY EYES!!!!
Hudson- [looks helplessly towards the camera]
Xanatos- [walks into camera view; grumbles] Skip to the next scene!!!!!
[SCENE: Somewhere on Pride Rock. Coldstone leans against the wall, holding a
mouse by its tail.
CS- {toying with the mouse] Life's not fair; is it?
[Out of nowhere, a man dressed in a suit and carrying a briefcase stomps onto
the scene, takes the mouse from him and slaps a piece of paper in CS's
hand]
CS- [blinks and looks at the paper] I'm being sued for animal abuse by the
NAPCA.....
Xanatos- [walks into camera range and takes the paper, grumbling] Get on with
it!! [stomps out of range]
CS- [looks a bit helpless] [walks around, wringing his hands] You see I, well,
I'll never be king... And you- [looks towards Xanatos] Um.... will never
see the, um. Man, skip it!!! Get MacBeth in here!!
[MacBeth stumbles into view; as if he was pushed]
CS- What do you want?
MacBeth- I'm here to announce, that King Mustafa....
Xanatos- [off- camera] [snaps] MacBeth!!!!
MacBeth- [sarcastically] King -Mufasa-; is on his way. So you better [pokes CS
in the chest] have a good excuse for missing the ceremony this morning.
CS- Um... [takes a banana out of a pocket and throws it off camera view] Oh,
now look Zazu. You made me lose my lunch. [grins proudly]
MacBeth- [rolls his eyes] You'll lose more than that when the king gets through
with you. He's as mad as a hippo with a hernia.
[CS and MacBeth look at each other and start cracking up]
Xanatos- [grumbles] Let's go!!!
CS- [clears his throat] Oooo, I quiver with fear!!! [inches towards MacBeth]
MacBeth- Now, Scar; don't look at me that way...
[CS grabs MacBeth's leg]
MacBeth- HELP!!
[CS is now holding MacBeth off the ground by his ankle]
[Goliath appears on a higher rock]
Goliath- Scar!!
CS- [looks up at him] Hmmm?
Goliath- Drop 'im.
CS- [grins at MacBeth; and lets go of his ankle]
[MacBeth drops with a muffled 'thud'. Snickers are heard from behind the
cameras]
CS- [moves away from the semi-dazed MacBeth and goes up to Goliath; who has
jumped down to his level] Why if it isn't my big brother descending from
on high to mingle with the commoners. [pauses] Why do -I- have to be the
enemy anyway??
Xanatos- [still off-camera] Because -you're- the only one who is actually
Goliath's brother.
Goliath- [looking at Xanatos; off-camera] But we're rookery brothers... Not
blood brothers...
Xanatos- [walks into camera view- holding a clip board] Actually, we had some
tests done...
CS- [mumbles] Oh, great.
[Xanatos shows CS and Goliath the paper]
Xanatos- You two are related. Tests prove it.
[Both CS and Goliath are speechless]
Goliath- [looks at CS] Boy; Dad got around, didn't he?
Xanatos- [walks out off-camera] Keep it rolling.....
Goliath- [clears his throat] Sarabi and I didn't see you at the presentation of
Simba.
CS- [walks over to a rock wall] Oh, that was today??? Why, I feel simply
-awful-! [CS scrapes his talons down the wall]
CS- Must've slipped my mind. [evil grin]
MacBeth- [stumbles to his feet; swaying] Well, as da king's brudder you should
have been -firs'- in line! Yeah! Das' it!! [MacBeth falls back]
CS- [chokes back his laughter] Well, I was first in line. 'Till that little
hairball was born.
Goliath- [crosses his arms, growling] That 'hairball' is my -son-. And your
future king!!
CS- [starts to walk away] Oh, I shall practice my curtsy.
Goliath- [angrily] Don't turn your back on -me- Scar!!
CS- [looks back and grins evilly] Watch me.
Xanatos- [off-camera] Keep to the script!!!
Goliath- [roars and jumps in front of CS; eyes glowing and teeth bared] Is that
a challenge???
CS- [waves his index finger; then pokes Goliath's nose] Temper, temper. I
wouldn't -dream- of challenging you....
MacBeth- [hobbles back up; stumbles to Goliath and leans against him] Man, How's
come?
CS- [blinks] Well, as far as brains go, I've got the, uh, lion's share. But when
it comes to brute strength..... [shrugs and walks past Goliath] I'm afraid
I'm at the shallow end of the gene pool. [CS walks out of camera range]
MacBeth- [shakes his head, 'tsking'] Der's one in ev'ry family, bud. [holds up
four fingers] Two in mine.
Goliath- [looks at MacBeth, then turns to where CS walked away] [sighs] What am
I gonna do with him?
MacBeth- You can make 'im one of 'dem t'row rugs.....
Goliath- [turns to him; grinning] Zazu!
[Goliath helps MacBeth; they walk away]
MacBeth- Yeah! Jus' t'ink!! Ev'ry time he gets dirty we can take 'im out an'
beat 'im!!
Goliath- [chuckles]
[SCENE: A tree. Hudson is sitting in a recliner watching TV]
Xanatos- [off-camera] Hudson! What are you doing???
Hudson- I'm resting me old bones. If ye think I'm gonna climb this tree wit' no
trouble, you've got another thing commin', lad.
Xanatos- [sighs] Get to the next scene......
[SCENE: Pride Rock. The sun has set; and you see Brooklyn peering excitedly over
the edge. He gets up and runs to a cave; hopping over several extras sleeping.
Brooklyn- [gets to Goliath, taps him on the shoulder] Goliath?
Xanatos- [off-camera] Call him Dad.
Brooklyn- [looks towards the camera] Okey..... [looks back down to Goliath; taps
him on the shoulder again] Um, -Dad-?
[Goliath doesn't move]
Brooklyn- [shakes Goliath a little] Dad? Dad, c'mon wake up. [looks up as if he
suddenly thought of something] [looks back towards the camera] Why -is- he
asleep anyway? He just woke from his stone sleep; he'd be wide awake by
now...
Goliath- [looks up and towards the camera] I was thinking the same thing....
Xanatos- [off-camera] [sighs] Just get on with it.....
[Goliath lays back down, and Brooklyn goes back to trying to wake him up]
[Brooklyn repeatedly says 'Dad']
Elisa- [yawns] Your son's awake....
Goliath- [thinks about his next line; opens an eye and glances toward Xanatos]
Xanatos- [off-camera] [the rustling of papers is heard as he looks at the script] [harshly]
Make something up!
Goliath- [closes his eye] Yep.
[A groan is heard from behind the cameras]
Brooklyn- [shoves Goliath; a little harder than he intended; sending Goliath
sprawling onto Elisa; which makes them both fall off the rock they were
sleeping on][groans are heard from the side of the rock]
Brooklyn- [cringes at the thud] Sorry, um... Mom and Dad.....
Goliath- [peers over the edge, scowling] Yes, -son-?
Brooklyn- [rubs the back of his head nervously] Um, you promised?
[Goliath gets up, helping Elisa up with him]
[SCENE: Just outside the cave; Brooklyn jogs out, looking excited. Goliath and
Elisa stumble out, Elisa looks a bit dazed.]
[Goliath forces a smile as he starts up a path towards the top of Pride Rock.
Brooklyn looks at Elisa, smiling. Elisa forces a smile and kicks Brooklyn
in the butt to get him going]
[Brooklyn glares at Elisa, rubbing his behind as he follows Goliath]
[SCENE: the top of Pride Rock. Brooklyn is sitting on the edge, his legs
dangling down the side. Goliath stands, his arms crossed]
Goliath- Look, Simba. Everything the [pauses] MOONlight touches.... Is our
kingdom.
Brooklyn- [bites his lip to keep from laughing] Wow....
Goliath- A king's time as ruler ris- [clears his throat] rises and falls like
the sun. One -night-, Simba; the sun will -rise- on my time here and will
-set- with you as the new king.
Brooklyn- [stands up and starts walking] And this will all be mine?
Goliath- Everything.
Brooklyn- [stops, gazing at a distant spot] Everything the light touches....
What about; um... over there?
Goliath- [walks over to Brooklyn] That's beyond our borders. You must never go
there, Simba.
Brooklyn- [looks at Goliath; a little confused] But I thought a king can do
whatever he wants...
Goliath- [grins and turns to walk away] Oh, there's more to being king than
getting your way all the time. [grins and whispers to Brooklyn] And if I
had my way we wouldn't be doing this.
Xanatos- [off-camera] Aren't you just hilarious.
Brooklyn- [grins and nods] You mean there's more??
Goliath- [chuckles and walks off; Brooklyn following] Simba...
[SCENE: Grasslands. Goliath and Brooklyn are walking along a small path]
Goliath- Everything you see exists together in a delicate balance. As king, you
need to understand that balance and respect all creatures; from the
crawling ant to the leaping antelope.
[Several of the clones dressed in antelope costumes (complete with antlers) hop
across the path Goliath and Brooklyn are walking on.]
Hollywood- [happily] This fun!
Brentwood- This not so bad....
Malibu- Why we always animals?
Xanatos- [off-camera] Animals don't talk, guys.
Burbank- [points to Brooklyn and Goliath] They lions.... Lions are animals.....
Xanatos- [off-camera] [grumbles] Just.... keep... hopping....
[Clones shrug and hop off and out of camera view]
Brooklyn- [grinning] But, Dad; don't we eat the antelope?
[Just when Goliath is about to reply; Hollywood's head pops up from behind a
nearby hill]
Hollywood- They eat us????
Xanatos- [off-camera] [shouting] NO THEY'RE NOT GOING TO EAT YOU!!!
Goliath- Um..... [mutters under his breath 'Yes'] Simba, but let me explain.
When we die, our bodies become the grass; and the antelope eat the grass.
And so; we are all connected in the great circle of life.
[MacBeth trots in; his head is now bandaged]
MacBeth- [bows] Good morning, Sire.
Goliath- [grins] Good morning, Zazu! Head feeling better?
Xanatos- [off-camera] Goliath!!!!
MacBeth- [scowls] -Yes-, sire. Checking in with the morning report.
Goliath- [nods] Fire away!
MacBeth- [clears his throat] Well, the buzz from the bees says that the leopards
are in a bit of a spot.
Goliath- Oh really?
[MacBeth keeps saying lines through this dialogue---- The baboons are going ape
and the giraffes are acting like they're above it all. The tick birds are
picking on the elephants; I told the elephant's to forget it; but they
can't... (Go to *) + The cheetah's are hard up, but as I always say,
Cheetah's never prosper. (Go to #)]
[Brooklyn crouches down and tries to jump on a grasshopper]
Goliath- [looks at him] What're you doing, son?
Brooklyn- [tries again; missing again] Pouncing.
Goliath- [grins evilly] Let an old pro show you how it's done.... [turns to
MacBeth] Zazu would you turn around?
*MacBeth- Yes, sire. [turns around; (go to +)]
Goliath- [pushes Brooklyn down a little] [whispers] Stay low to the ground...
Brooklyn- [nods, grinning] [whispers] 'Kay.. Stay low to the ground; right!
Yeah.
# MacBeth- [turns his head to them] What're you doing?
Goliath- A pouncing lesson.
MacBeth- [turns his head back around] Ah, very good. Pouncing. [blinks]
Pouncing?!?! [turns around quickly] Oh, no sire you can't be serious!!!
[Goliath grins and does a circular motion with his index finger]
MacBeth- [turns around] Oh, this is so humiliating!!!
Goliath- [turns to Brooklyn] [whispers] Try not to make a sound....
MacBeth- What're you telling him Mufasa? [looks around] Mufasa? Simba?
[Brooklyn jumps out and just as he's about to cream MacBeth; MacBeth whirls
around, takes his lightning gun and shoots Brooklyn; causing the gargoyle
to fly back]
MacBeth- [grins innocently] Wups. Sorry. Heh, reflexes?
Brooklyn- [sits up; rubbing his head and growling] Yeah; I'll show you
reflexes....
Xanatos- [off-camera] You people are IMPOSSIBLE to work with!!!! Cue the
gopher!!!!
[Brentwood; dressed in a gopher suit; pops up from the ground next to MacBeth]
Brentwood- Zazu!
MacBeth- [turns to him; almost busting out laughing] Yes?
Brentwood- [salutes] Sir! News from underground!!
[Goliath helps Brooklyn up; brushing the grass off of him]
MacBeth- Sire! Hyenas! In the Pride Lands!
Goliath- [starts to run off; stops a short distance away] Zazu; take Simba home.
And don't blast him this time!!!
[Brooklyn glares at MacBeth; who only grins]
Brooklyn- [almost pleading] Dad, can't I come?
Goliath- [stops quickly] No, son. [runs off and out of camera view]
Brooklyn- [pouts] I never get to go anywhere...
MacBeth- [walks up to him; grinning] [puts his arm around Brooklyn's shoulder]
Aw, young Master. One day you'll be king. [pokes Brooklyn in the chest]
[starts to walk away; bringing Brooklyn along with him] Then you can chase
those slobbery, mangy, stupid poachers from dawn 'till dusk. [shakes his
head] I mean dusk 'till dawn.
[SCENE: Somewhere on Pride Rock. CS is walking; looking mad]
CS- [kicks at a bone] [yelps and starts hopping up and down; holding his foot]
WHO'S THE JERK WHO BOLTED THAT TO THE FLOOR?!??!??!
[snickering is heard behind the camera; and CS stomps out of camera range.
Sounds of struggling and a fist fight are heard]
CS- [stomps back into camera range] [turns and looks beyond the camera] That'll
teach you to mess with me, Wolf!!!!!
[sounds of a dog whining are heard from behind the cameras]
CS- [growls and keeps walking]
Brooklyn- [trots into camera range, grinning] Hey, Uncle Scar! Guess what?
CS- [turns to look at Brooklyn, frowning] I despise guessing games. [glances
beyond camera range] Especially when my FOOT is throbbing!!!
Brooklyn- [grins proudly] I'm gonna be king of Pride Rock! [jogs to a ledge]
CS- Oh, goodie.
Brooklyn- Dad just showed me the whole kingdom. [gazes in the distance] And
this'll all be -mine-. [snickers and turns to CS]
CS- Yes. Well forgive me for not leaping for joy. [turns his back to Brooklyn]
Bad back y'know.
Brooklyn- [walks up to CS] Hey, Uncle Scar; when I'm king; what'll that make
you?
CS- A monkey's uncle.
Brooklyn- [laughs] You're so weird.
CS- [raises eyeridge for a second; looking at Brooklyn] You have no idea. [turns
Back away] So; your father showed you the whole kingdom did he?
Brooklyn- [grins and nods] Everything.
CS- [grins slightly] He didn't show you what's beyond that rise in the Northern
border?
Brooklyn- [frowns] No... He said I can't go there...
CS- And he's -absolutely- right!!! It's far too dangerous. Only the bravest
lions go there.
Brooklyn- [looks confused; but interested] Well, I'm brave! What's ou-
CS- [interrupts Brooklyn] Oh no, Simba. I just -can't- tell you.
Brooklyn- [crosses his arms; pouting] Why not?
CS- [grins] Simba, Simba. I'm only looking out for the well being of my
-favorite- nephew..... [grabs Brooklyn and noogies him]
Brooklyn- [scowls] Yeah, right. I'm your -only - nephew.....
CS- [grin grows] All the more reason for me to be protective! [shrugs a little]
I mean; after all. An elephant graveyard in no place for a young prince-
[quickly slaps his hand over his mouth] Ooops!!!!
Brooklyn- [excited] An elephant what??!!?! Woah!
CS- [over-acting a bit] Oh dear!!! I've said to much!! Well, I s'pose you would
have found out sooner or later. [grins] You being so clever, and all.
[grin grows and CS puts his arm on Brooklyn's shoulder] Just tell me one
thing. Promise me you'll -never- visit that -dreadful- place....
Brooklyn- [grins] No problem.
CS- [ruffles Brooklyn's hair] There's a good lad. Now; you run along and have
fun.
[Brooklyn starts to jog off; stopping when CS speaks]
CS- And remember! It's our little secret....
[Brooklyn grins and runs off]
CS- [grins evilly and starts to walk off; suddenly trips over the bone again]
WOLF!!!!!!
[SCENE: Somewhere by Pride Rock. Brooklyn runs down a hill to where Elisa,
Demona, and Angela are]
[Demona is brushing Angela's hair]
Brooklyn- [trots to a stop] Hey, Nala!
Angela- Hi, Simba.
Brooklyn- [grins and whispers] C'mon! I just heard about this really great
place!
Angela- [glares at him] Simba; I'm kinda busy....
Brooklyn- [quickly turns to Elisa before she could say her line] Don't -even-
think about it.
[Elisa blinks, a little shocked]
Xanatos- [off- camera] Brooklyn, keep to the script!
Brooklyn- [looks beyond the cameras] I was -not- about to let Elisa touch me
again. [glares at Elisa]
[Elisa only grins]
Xanatos- [off-camera] [mumbles] Say your lines....
Brooklyn- [turns to Elisa] Can we go now??
Angela- [looks at Brooklyn] So where we going? Better not be any place dumb...
Brooklyn- [shakes his head] No! It's really cool!
Elisa- So where is this "really cool " place?
Brooklyn- Oh.... Uh, 'round the water hole!
Angela- The water hole?? What's so great about the water hole?
Brooklyn- [through clenched teeth] I'll show you when we -get- there......
Angela- [sheepishly] Oh... Umm [turns to Demona] Mom, can I go with Simba?
Demona- [looks at Elisa] Hmmm... what do you think, pitiful human?
Xanatos- [off- camera] Demona; be nice!
Demona- [growls] What do you think, Sarabi?
Elisa- Well......
Brooklyn and Angela- [Brooklyn and Angela smile; showing as much of their teeth
as possible] Please????
Elisa- It's alright with me.
[Brooklyn and Angela start bounding off]
[Both speak at the same time]
Brooklyn- Yeah!!!!
Angela- Alright!!
Elisa- [grins] As long as Zazu goes with you.
[Brooklyn and Angela screech to a stop; looking at each other]
Brooklyn- No, not Zazu!!! ANYTHING but him!!!!
MacBeth- [off-camera] Oh, funny.
[SCENE: A path in the grasslands. Brooklyn and Angela are walking side-by-side,
with MacBeth walking a little further ahead]
MacBeth- [turns his head and shouts] Step lively! The sooner we get to the water
hole, the sooner we can leave. [turns his head back ahead]
Angela- [whispers] So where we -really- going?
Brooklyn- [even quieter] An elephant graveyard.
Angela- [loud] Wow!!!
Brooklyn- [angrily] SHHHHHH!!!!!!
Angela- [glares at Brooklyn as she wipes the spit from her face] [sheepishly]
Oh, sorry..... So how're we gonna ditch the dodo?
[Camera switches to a shot of MacBeth]
[MacBeth turns to see Brooklyn and Angela whispering among themselves]
MacBeth- [stops and turns back to face Brooklyn and Angela, grinning] Oh, just
look at you two. Little seeds of romance blossoming in the savanna-
[Brooklyn flashes a quick grin at Angela, Angela elbows him hard in the side]
MacBeth- [clears his throat] [bows slightly] Your parents will be thrilled! You
being betrothed and all.
Brooklyn- [still rubbing his side] [confused] Be-what?
MacBeth- Betrothed! Intended! Affianced!
[Brooklyn and Angela look at each other; the confusion clear on their faces]
Angela- [looks at MacBeth] Meaning?
MacBeth- [puts his hands on his hips, grinning] One day you two are gonna be
married!
Angela- [looks disgusted] Eww!!!
Brooklyn- [snaps his fingers sarcastically] Man, now we -are- gonna have to get
together!
[A loud stomping sound is heard, and Brooklyn is seen gritting his teeth]
Brooklyn- [through clenched teeth] I mean, Yuck! [holds his foot, scowling] I
can't marry her! She's my *ahem* -friend-!
Angela- [nods] Yeah! It'd be so weird....
MacBeth- [smugly] Well, sorry to bust your bubble [while he speaks, Brooklyn
opens and closes his mouth, mimicking MacBeth; causing Angela to grin] but
you two turtledoves have no choice! It's a tradition going back
generations! [emphasizes his point by making a large motion with his arm]
Brooklyn- [grins evilly] Well, when I'm king that'll be the first thing to
go....
[Music starts in the background]
MacBeth- Not so long as I'm around.
Brooklyn- [pokes MacBeth in the chest] Well in that case yer fired.
MacBeth- [grins] Mmm... Nice try; but only a [pokes Brooklyn on the beak] -king-
can do that.
Angela- Well.... He's the future king....
Brooklyn- [evil grin] Yeah; so you have ta do what I tell ya!
MacBeth- [a little angrily] Not yet I don't! And with an attitude like that I'm
afraid you're shaping up to be a pretty pathetic king indeed!!
Brooklyn- [grins] Heh, Not the way -I- see it! [Brooklyn pounces towards
MacBeth; grinning] [Sings; his voice way off key, and cracking] I'm gonna
be a mighty king! So enemies beware!
MacBeth- [still cringing] Um... [sings; in tune] I've never seen a king of
beasts with quite so little hair! [yanks a strand of hair from Brooklyn's
head]
Brooklyn- [all the camera sees is a wreath of leaves] I'm gonna be the [he pokes
his head in the center of the leaves] mane event! Like-- [the music dies
down]
Xanatos- [off- camera] Umm...... Brooklyn; do you know all the words to this
song?
Brooklyn- [looks beyond camera range and grins proudly] Yep!
Xanatos- [off-camera] Can you lip-sing?
Brooklyn- [grin falls] Lip-sing?
Xanatos- [still off-camera] Yeah; as in no sound comes out of your mouth?
Brooklyn- Well... ye-
Xanatos- [(you get the idea)] [interrupts] Great. REWIND THE MUSIC!
[music is heard rewinding]
Xanatos- [yup; still off-camera] Okey, start at 'Like no king was before'.
Brooklyn- [shoulder's slumped] [mutters] Yeah, sure.
[music starts again; and the person singing Brooklyn's part sounds amazingly
like Oberon]
Brooklyn- [lip- singing] Like no king was before! [jumps out of the leaves and
creeps up to MacBeth] I'm brushing up on [looks real noble] lookin' down;
I'm workin'[grins, looking at MacBeth] on my ROARRR!!!
MacBeth- [flies back with the force of Brooklyn's 'roar' into a puddle of mud]
And by far a rather uninspiring thing....
[Music stops again]
Brooklyn- [shouts] I wasn't singing!!!!!
Xanatos- [walks into camera range] Yes, Brooklyn; I know. [turns to camera] Due
to major butchery of the original soundtrack; we figured it would just
save time and money to just skip it. Thank you.
Brooklyn- [blinks] Bu- [camera shuts off]
{SCENE- An area of the Pride Lands; just outside the area Brooklyn, Angela and
MacBeth used to be; MacBeth is nowhere to be seen]
Brooklyn- [grumbling] Now that was the stupidest-
Xanatos- [off-camera] Brooklyn! We're rolling!!!
Brooklyn- Oh... [clears throat quickly] We did it!
Angela- [excited] It worked!!
Brooklyn- [grins and crosses his arms] I am a genius.
Angela- [scowls at him] Hey, "genius" it was my idea.
Brooklyn- [grins coolly] Yeah; but -I- pulled it off.
Angela- With me!
Brooklyn- [evil grin] Oh yeah? [gives a small roar and pounces toward Angela who
accidentally trips him] [Brooklyn flies head first into a rock; Angela
winces at the loud ~WHUMP!~]
Brooklyn- [stands up and stumbles in every direction; a dazed look all over his
face] [suddenly falls down the hill both he and Angela were supposed to
tumble down together]
Angela- [looks distressed] [with a sigh; leaps down the hill after him]
[Both tumble down; Brooklyn lands on his back; a shocked expression on his face.
Angela jumps and puts her hands on his shoulders; grinning]
Angela- Pinned ya a-..... Nevermind.
[Both gasp at a steam blast beside them] [Standing up; Brooklyn looks ahead; a
grin slowly forms across his face]
[Both start walking up a hill towards a giant elephant skull (made by Xanatos
Ent.; located on the corner of 3rd and Broadway; 'Not only do we function
around the world; we plan to rule it someday' (TM))]
Brooklyn- [quietly, but excitedly] This is it! We made it!
[Both lean against the tusk; gazing at the wonder before them]
Brooklyn and Angela- [in unison; turning their heads to each other, grinning]
Woah.......
Angela- It's really creepy....
Brooklyn- Yeah... [grins] But isn't it great?
Angela- [grins] We could get in big trouble.
Brooklyn- [snickers; grinning] I know; heh.
[Angela and Brooklyn start walking towards the head]
Angela- I wonder if it's brains are still in there.
Brooklyn- [grins] There's only one way to know; C'mon [starts trotting towards
the head] let's go check it out.
[A blur is seen in front of the camera; then switches to another camera to
reveal MacBeth in front of Brooklyn]
MacBeth- [looks angry] Stop!!! The only checking out you'll do is to check out
of here![starts shoving Brooklyn the opposite direction]
Brooklyn- [scowls] Aw, man!
MacBeth- [looks around, nervously wringing his hands together] We're WAY beyond
the boundaries of the Pride Lands...
Brooklyn- [snickers] Hey, look, 'Fuzzy's' scared.
MacBeth- [frowns] That's -Mr.- Fuzzy to you; BananaBeak.
Brooklyn- [growls] Barney lover!!!
Angela- Now that's hitting below the belt, isn't it?
Xanatos- [off camera] Guys!!!!!
MacBeth- [clears his throat irritably] We are all in very real danger!
Brooklyn- [grins and starts walking towards the skull] Danger? Ha! I walk on the
wild side. [grins and turns to face Angela and MacBeth] I laugh in the
face of danger![starts laughing maniacally; ending with a coughing fit]
[lots of laughing is heard from behind Brooklyn; causing him to jump and run
behind Angela and MacBeth] [Fox, Anton Sevarius, and the Jogger Guy
squeeze through the skull's eye sockets at the same time; tumbling to the ground]
Fox- [unsteadily stands up; stumbles towards Brooklyn, Angela and MacBeth;
grinning]Well, well, well. Banzai; what've we got here?
Sevarius- [following Fox; also grinning; and, as usual, over-acting] Hmmm I
don't know Shenzi.... What do you think [dramatic pause] Ed?
Jogger Guy- [jogging behind them] [only laughs]
Sevarius- Yes, that's what I was thinking! I trio of trespassers!
MacBeth- [nervously] And quite by accident, let me assure you. [Starts to push
Angela and Brooklyn away] A simple navigational error.
Fox- [grabs MacBeth's shoulder] Wait, wait. I know you. You're Mufasa's little
stooge!
MacBeth- [frowns and angrily pushes her hand away] I, madam, am the King's major
domo.
[Sevarius, Fox, and the Jogger Guy start to circle around MacBeth, Angela and
Brooklyn]
Sevarius- [grinning at Brooklyn] And that would make you.....
Brooklyn- [puffs out his chest] The future king!
Fox- [grinning at the three of them] You know what we do to kings who step outta
their kingdom?
Brooklyn- [frowning] You can't do anything to us....
MacBeth- [getting really nervous; wringing his hands] Ummm.... Technically they
can... We are on their land.
Brooklyn- [looks confused] But, Zazu.... You told me they were nothin' but
slobbery,[MacBeth starts trying to stop him from talking] mangy, stupid
poachers...
MacBeth- [speaks through his teeth] Ix-nay on the Oopid-stay....
Sevarius- [shoves his face into MacBeth's] Who are you calling 'Oopid-
stay'?
MacBeth- [coughs and hands Sevarius a stick of gum] [pushes Angela and Brooklyn
ahead of him as they start to run] Oh, my my my; look at the sun. It's
time to go!
Fox- [runs ahead and stops them] Woah, woah, wait. We'd love you stick
around for dinner.
Sevarius- Yeah, we can have whatever's [another dramatic pause] lion
around! [Sevarius and the Jogger Guy laugh]
Fox- Wait wait. I got one, I got one. I'd like a cub sandwich [laughs]
Whatchathink?
Sevarius- [laughing] I'd like a roar-st beef sandwich!
Fox- That was awful.
Xanatos- [off camera] Guys......
[Sevarius and Fox start laughing; and the Jogger Guy starts pointing in a
certain direction; trying to get their attention]
Fox- What, Ed? What is it?
Sevarius- [looking in the direction the Jogger Guy is pointing] Um.. Did we
order this dinner to go?
Fox- No. Why?
Sevarius- [shouts] [Camera shows MacBeth, Brooklyn and Angela running away]
'Cause there it goes!!!!
[MacBeth is running; but gets grabbed from behind by his coat collar]
[Brooklyn and Angela keep running for awhile, then stop; both breathing heavily]
Angela- Did we lose 'em?
Brooklyn- [looking around] I think so... Where's Zazu?
[MacBeth's shouting angrily as Fox and Sevarius shove him in a geyser]
Sevarius- Here comes the little major domo bird hippity-hop all the way to the
birdie bowler!
Fox- [angry; whispers harshly] It's 'boiler', stupid!
Sevarius- Don't call me 'stupid'! I graduated with a Ph.D. from Harvard
AND Yale!
Xanatos- [off-camera] [sighs] It is 'birdie boiler', Sevarius.....
Sevarius- [looks beyond camera range; then pulls a big book from his coat]
[Reads the script out-loud] "- all the way to the birdie boiler......."
[clears his throat and slowly puts the script back in his coat]
Xanatos- [guess] [sighs] Get on with it...
MacBeth- Oh no! Not the birdie boiler!! [the geyser explodes; but he doesn't
move] [his lower lip starts to quiver and a single tear rolls down his
cheek]
[Sevarius, the Jogger Guy and Fox all have looks of pain on their faces,
looking at MacBeth]
Xanatos- [still there] Guys!! You're on!!
[Sevarius, the Jogger Guy, and Fox all force themselves to laugh]
Brooklyn- [off camera] Hey!!! [Camera speeds over to him] Why don't you pick on
someone your OWN size!
Fox- Like... you?
Brooklyn- Uh-oh...
[Angela screams as Fox dives for them; Angela and Brooklyn run and start to skid
to a stop before they reach a geyser that Fox, Sevarius, and The Jogger
Guy are hiding behind. They skid too far and collide as the geyser shoots
up smoke; hiding the havoc. Groans are heard.]
Xanatos- [walks into view of the camera and shakes his head] [sighs] Skip to the
'Lecture' scene...
[Camera blacks out]
[SCENE- Pridelands. The night sky is filled with thousands of stars. Goliath and
a bandaged-up Brooklyn sit in the middle of it all.]
Goliath- [firmly] Simba, I'm very disappointed in you.
Brooklyn- [painfully rubs his head] Yeah, me too. Who's idea was it to go to the
graveyard, anyway?? [Xanatos sighs and Brooklyn clears his throat] I mean,
[sadly] I know...
Goliath- [angrily, but worriedly] You could have been killed! You deliberately
Disobeyed me; and what's worse; you put Nala in danger!
Brooklyn- [sniffs a bit] I was just trying to be brave like you... [grins] And
Be alone with Angela...
Goliath- [growls]
Xanatos- [off-camera] [sighs] I don't know why I'm bothering...
Goliath- [through clenched teeth] I'm only brave when I have to be. Simba,
being brave doesn't mean you go looking for trouble. [growls] And you're
in deep enough now as it is...
Brooklyn- [innocently] But you're not scared of anything!
Goliath- [rolls his eyes] I was today.
Brooklyn- You were?
Goliath- Yes. [puts his hands on Brooklyn's shoulders] I thought I might lose
you.
Brooklyn- Oh... I guess even kings get scared, huh?
Goliath- [smiles and nods] Mmm-hmm.
Brooklyn- [grins and whispers] But you know what?
Goliath- [whispers] What?
Brooklyn- I bet those hyenas were even scareder.
Goliath- [laughs] [playfully] That's because nobody messes with your dad. C'mere
you! [grabs Brooklyn and noogies him]
Brooklyn- No!! Dad!! [tries to escape] Agh!! Erg!! [slips out of Goliath's grasp
and growls playfully as he tackles Goliath]
[Both frolic around until Brooklyn finally tackles Goliath again.]
Brooklyn- [grins as Goliath is laughing] Dad?
Goliath- [smiles] Mmm?
Brooklyn- We're pals, right?
Goliath- [chuckles] Right.
Brooklyn- And well always be together, right?
Goliath- [expression turns serious] Simba; let me tell you something my father
told me... [smiles and looks at the night sky] Look at the stars;
[Brooklyn does so] the great kings of the past look down at us from those
stars.
Brooklyn- [voice filled with wonder] Really?
Goliath- Yes. So if you ever feel alone; just remember that those stars will
always be there to guide you. And so will I.
[Camera fades to black]
[SCENE- Back at the Elephant graveyard. Sevarius and The Jogger Guy are standing
while Fox sits on ledge above them.]
Sevarius- [rubbing his butt] Man that lousy Mufasa... I won't be able to sit for
a week...
Jogger Guy- [starts to snicker]
Sevarius- It's not funny Ed.
Jogger Guy- [bursts into hysterical laughter]
[Sevarius growls and begins to throw obviously fake punches]
Fox- Will you knock it off?!?
Sevarius- [points to The Jogger Guy; who's chewing on his own arm] Well, he
started it!!
Fox- Look at you guys!! [Starts stalking towards them] No wonder we're dangling
at the bottom of the food chain!!
Sevarius- [has a big slimy loogie hanging off of his chin; Fox makes a disgusted
Face] Yeah; I hate dangling.
Fox- Y'know; if it weren't for those lions we'd be runnin' the joint.
Sevarius- Yeah, man I HATE lions.
Fox- So pushy.
Sevarius- And hairy!
Fox- [grinning] And stinky!
Sevarius- [grinning] And man are they [Fox and Sevarius in unison] Uuuugly!
[Both start laughing hysterically] [Both stop with a gasp when CS
speaks]
CS- [Camera switches to CS. He's sitting on the edge of the small cliff; his
legs dangling over the side; with one foot bandaged] Oh; surly we lions
aren't all that bad.
Sevarius- [chuckles] Oh, Scar it's just you. Heh.
Fox- Yeah; we thought it was somebody important.
Sevarius- Yeah, you know like Mufasa.
Fox- Yeah.
[Camera switches back to CS; he rolls his eyes; then switches back to Fox and
Sevarius]
Fox- Yeah, every time I hear that name I shudder.
Sevarius- [grins] Mufasa...
Fox- [shudders] Ooo... [grins] Do it again.
Sevarius- Mufasa. [Fox shudders] Mufasa Mufasa Mufasa!
Fox- [Camera is on CS; but you can hear Fox's voice] Ooo, it tingles me.
CS- [puts his hand up to his forehead, as if he has a headache] I'm surrounded
by idiots...
Sevarius- Oh Scar; you're one of us! I mean, you're our pal!
CS- [sarcastically] Charmed.
Fox- [grinning] Ooo, I like that! He's not king, but he's still so proper.
Sevarius- Yeah! Hey! Didja bring us anything to eat? Scar ol' buddy ol' pal!
Huh? Didja didja didja?
CS- [Sneers] I don't think you really deserve this [pulls out a realistic-
looking zebra leg, but it has a sticker with the word 'PROP' on it.
Fox, Sevarius and The Jogger Guy all lick their lips and jump around
excitedly.] After all; I practically gift-wrapped those cubs for you.
And you couldn't even dispose of them. [Drops the prop; Sevarius, Fox,
and The Jogger Guy dive for it.]
Fox- [mouth full of something- but obviously not zebra meat] Well, it wasn't
exactly like they were alone, Scar.
Sevarius- [mouth full] Yeah! What're we s'possed to do? [gulps the food down]
kill Mufasa?
CS- [grins evilly] Precisely.
