Mufasa: [voice only; Simba and Rafiki smile] Well done, my son. We are one.

Pumbaa: [about to cry after seeing Kovu and Kiara's initiation] I love moments like this.

Timon: Yeah.

Both: [they start crying, and Zazu covers himself] Love! Not "like", "LOVE"!

Simba: [Kiara doesn't back down] Kiara?

Zira: [Kovu also doesn't back down] Kovu! Move.

Simba: Step aside.

Kiara: [Simba becomes stunned] Daddy, this has to stop.

Zira: [[The Fox and the Hound|'''''Get out of the way!'''''] You're even weaker than I thought. ]

Kovu: [Zira scoffs in shock] You will never hurt Kiara, or Simba. Not while I am here.

Simba: Stay out of this.

Kiara: [smiles] The wise king once told me, "We are one." I didn't understand him then. Now I do.

Simba: But they--

Kiara: Them? Us? Look at them; They are us. What differences do you see? (Aren't we all part of the Circle of Life?)

Zira: Vitani, now!

Vitani: [faces Kiara then back to Zira; walks to join Simba's pride] No, Mother. Kiara's right. Enough.

Zira: [the other Outsiders mutter disgustedly. They go to stand with Simba, leaving Zira standing alone] If you will not fight, then you will die as well. Wh-- Wha-- Where are you going?! Get back here!

Simba: Let it go, Zira. It's time to put the past behind us.

Zira: [her last words before her death; Simba looks up as logs shift in the gorge behind Zira who losing control of her outraged] I'll never let it go! This is for you, Scar.

Simba: Kiara!

Kovu: [smiles at Kiara] Hey, look. We are one.

Kiara: [confused] What?

Kovu: Let's get out of here. We'll run away together and start a pride all our own.

Kiara: [chuckles and walk toward Kovu] Kovu, we have to go back.

Kovu: You're kidding. But we're finally together.

Kiara: Our place is with our pride. If we run away, they'll be divided forever.

Kiara: [approaches Simba] Father, please, you've got to excuse him, reconsider.

Simba: You will not going anywhere without the escort from now on.

Kiara: No, that's not...

Simba: [looks back at Kiara.] He used you to get to me.

Kiara: No! He loves me, he's gentle and kind... for me!

Simba: Because you are my daughter! You will not leave Pride Rock. You will stay where I can keep the eye on you, away from him.

Timon: Why, I oughta. Let me at him, let me at him! Here, hold me back.

Pumbaa: [holds Timon back] Okay.

Timon: Let me at him, let me at him!

Pumbaa: [he lets go of Timon's tail] Okay!

Timon: [annoyed] I think you're missing the basic point here.

Pumbaa: [looks away] Oh.

Simba: Scar couldn't let go of his hate, and in the end, it destroyed him.

Kovu: [genuinely shocked] I've never heard the story of Scar that way. He truly was a killer.

Simba: [glances at the burnt plains around them; unearths a small plant from the dust; Zira cackles from offscreen and Kovu and Simba look around and gasp. The Outsiders emerge from the shadows and stalk toward Kovu and Simba and growl. Simba looks to the side to see more Outsiders emerging.] Fire is a killer. Sometimes, what's left behind can grow better than the generation before. If given the chance.

Kovu: [Kovu and Simba look back and forth frantically.] No. Oh, no. No!

Zira: [emerges, flanked by Nuka and Vitani.] Why, Simba.

Simba: [angrily] Zira.

Zira: [evilly smirks; Simba squares off against the Outsiders and growl; she, Nuka and Vitani chuckle] What are you doing out here, and so alone? Well done, Kovu. Just like we always planned.

Simba: [to Kovu; angry at being betrayed] You!

Kovu: [Simba snarls; looks around at the Outsiders desperately.; looks imploringly at Simba.] No! I didn't have anything to do with this!

Zira: Attack!

Kovu: [The Outsiders attack Simba while both he and the Outsiders snarl] NO!

Simba: [fights back as more Outsiders gang up on him.] Ah!

Zira: [surveys Simba from the top of the gorge.; The Outsiders slide down the side of the gorge toward Simba.; Outsiders snarl] Yes! We've got him!

Vitani: [pounces at Simba.] Rah!

Zira: [from offscreen; The Outsiders chase Simba through the gorge. One jumps on his back but falls. The Outsiders growl and Simba pauses at the bottom of a log pile. He looks up to see that it leads to the top of the gorge., pants, looks behind him to see the Outsiders charging toward him. He begins to climb the log pile. As he climbs, he dislodges a log that falls toward the Outsiders. They back away in time to avoid getting hit. Zira and Vitani glare up at Simba and they snarl. Simba looks over one shoulder at the Outsiders down below. He then looks back up at the log pile. Meanwhile, Kovu stands at the top of the gorge, looking down on Simba.] Remember your training as a unit!

Kovu: Simba!

Zira: [Kovu runs offscreen.] Get him, Kovu! Get him! Do it! NOW!

Nuka: [bounds gleefully up the logs and snickers but loses his balance; looks down at Zira as he climbs; under his breath] I'LL DO IT FOR YOU, MOTHER! Oh! MOTHER, ARE YA WATCHING?! I'm doin it for you, and I'm doin it for me.

Simba: [loses his footing] Ah!

Nuka: [he grabs onto one of Simba's back paws and yells, as Simba winces and grunts; The log Nuka is standing on breaks, causing him to fall.] This is my moment of glory! What? No!

Zira: NO!

Zira: [heartbroken] Nuka.

Nuka: [weakly; his last words before his death] I'm sorry, M-Mother. {{small|I tried.}}

Zira: [reaches down for Nuka.] {{small|Shh.}}

Vitani: [approaches from behind Zira; sadly; bows her head. The scene transitions to the open savanna. Simba limps through the grass. Kiara, Zazu, Timon, and Pumbaa appear on a nearby hill.] Nuka.

Kiara: [looks at Zazu, who has alighted in a nearby tree] Father? Father! Zazu, get help!

Zazu: [flies away; Kiara, Timon, and Pumbaa rush down the hill toward Simba, who pauses, looks up wearily at their arrival and grunts] Oh, yes! Help! At once! Of course!

Kiara: [nuzzles Simba, then pulls away and watches him with concern. Pumbaa skids to a halt in front of Simba, with Timon in his mane.] Father.

Timon: [spreads his arms wide] Simba, talk to me! What happened?

Simba: [weakly; collapses on his side and moans] Kovu. Ambush.

Kiara: No.

Timon: [Timon and Pumbaa carry Simba away, while Kiara strides alongside them. The scene transitions to the gorge, where the Outsiders are gathered mournfully around the log pile.] It's all right, buddy. We're here for ya.

Timon: Ah!

Pumbaa: [Timon and Pumbaa exchange glances but run on; Timon and Pumbaa run through the grass. They hide behind a tree trunk] Hup! Hup! Hup!

Timon and Pumbaa: [they look around; they run back into the grass] Huh. Huh. Huh.

Pumbaa: [Timon and Pumbaa each peek around one side of a tree; Timon and Pumbaa switch places; Timon and Pumbaa run on. Pumbaa takes up a position behind a rock, while Timon hides in a hollow log] Hup! Hup! Hup! Hup! Hup! Hup! Hup!

Timon: [he and Pumbaa look up to see the herd of Topi charging toward them; they scream and duck down, and the Topi jump over them] This must be where the deer and the antelope play!

Kiara: [sternly] Timon, what are you doing here?

Timon: Uh, shopping! We thought a nice pelt for the den, some throw pillows, a little potpourri--

Kiara: My father sent you. After he promised to let me do this on my own, he lied!

Timon: No. He just doesn't want you to get hurt.

Kiara: [runs off into the fields, continuing her hunt] I should have known he'd never give me a real chance. I'll do this on my own. Away from the Pride Lands!

Timon: [hops on Pumbaa and they run off after her] Hey! Wait! Come back!

Pumbaa: Come back here! Kiara! Come back!

Timon: [Pumbaa stops running] Kiara, come back! Oh... she's gone again. Somebody's gotta get a beeper for this kid.

Nuka: [Vitani chuckles evilly while lighting a trail of fire; Nuka guffaws while lighting a fire; finishes lighting the grass on fire in a circle around him and jumps in excitement, but then pauses; realizes he's surrounded by fire; shoots out and screams; lands away from the fire circle and laughs in amusement.] LET'S LIGHT FIRES!!!!!!! Roasty toasty princess! Roasty toasty princess! Hey, is it hot here or is that just me? FIRE!

Vitani: [pulls him away] Come on!

Kiara: [Kiara pauses, her nostrils flaring. On the ridge ahead of her, the herd doubles back and starts running toward her, pursued by flames. Kiara's expression turns to horror as she gasps. She turns and runs in the separate direction, with the herd hot on her heels. Meanwhile, Zira and Kovu survey the fire from a nearby ridge] Unh!

Zira: The plan is in motion. Go!

Zazu: [Simba pauses abruptly in his pacing and stares at a distant column of smoke] Don't worry, Simba. She'll be fine. What could happen?

Simba: [gasps; Simba runs off. Zazu flies into the air and stares in consternation at the smoke; gasps and Simba bounds down Pride Rock; Simba races past the lionesses, who move to follow him] No. No! Kiara! Zazu, fly ahead! Find her!

Zazu: [flies overhead; he notices Kovu and Kiara and gasps; flies away] I must tell Simba!

Kiara: [Kovu drags her onto dry land, where she regains consciousness; weakly] Where am I?

Kovu: You're safe in the Pride Lands.

Kiara: [shocked; angrily] The Pride Lands? No! Why did you bring me here? Who do you think you are?

Kovu: But I think I'm the one who just saving your life.

Kiara: Look, I had everything under control.

Kovu: Not from where I'm standing.

Kiara: [The lions confront each other. Kiara begins jumping from side to side, as she had done in their earlier encounter as cubs. Soon Kovu's interest is piqued] Then move downwind.

Kovu: What are you doing?

Kiara: [recognizing him; smirks proudly] Kovu?

Simba: [offscreen; Simba and the lionesses from Pride Rock arrive. Simba jumps in front of Kiara, snarling and growling.] Kiara!

Nala:: Kiara! You're all right.

Kiara: Father, how could you break your promise?

Simba: It's a good thing I did. I almost lost you. No more hunts for you, not ever.

Kiara: But I was doing just fine. Even before Kovu--

Simba: Kovu?

Nala: [surprised at Simba's ferocity; Rafiki has arrived and is standing on the hillside behind Simba.] Simba!

Rafiki: [sarcastically] Hey! You! How dare you save the King's daughter?

Simba: You saved her? Why?

Kovu: I humbly ask to join your pride.

Simba: [sternly] No. You were banished with the other Outsiders.

Kovu: [Simba snarls and paces around. Nala looks hard at him] I have left the Outsiders. I'm a rogue. Judge me now, who I am. Or am I to be blamed for a crime I didn't commit?

Nala: Simba, you owe him your daughter's life.

Zazu: [Simba paces a few moments more, then comes to a decision] Hmm, yes, sire. Clearly, we are in his debt. And royal protocol demands that all debts be paid. Though, in this case, you might want to make an exception.

Simba: [Kovu smiles inwardly and looks sidelong at Kiara, who smiles back at him. Zazu turns his back on Kovu] Hmm. My father's law will prevail. For now, I reserve judgment. We'll see who you really are.

Zazu: [Zazu flies off. All make their way back to Pride Rock, with Kovu walking behind Simba and growling to himself] Hmph. Riffraff.

Zira: [smirks evilly; Zira chuckles, evilly circling a full-grown Kovu; chuckles darkly] You are ready! Nice, very nice. You have the same blackness in your soul that Scar had. What is your destiny?

Kovu: I will avenge Scar; Take his place in the Pride Lands.

Zira: Yes. What have I taught you?

Kovu: Simba is the enemy.

Zira: [evilly smiling and emphatically] And what must you do?

Kovu: I must kill him!

Kiara: [starts to bound down Pride Rock.] Wow!

Simba: [catches Kiara by her scruff and lifts her back onto Pride Rock; she giggles mischievously, and tries to bound away, but Simba stops her with a paw.; lifts Kiara into the air.] Whoa! Where do you think you're going in such a hurry?

Kiara: [grunts; giggles as Simba sets Kiara onto her stomach.] Daddy. Let go.

Simba: [Kiara growls and jumps at a butterfly, but fails to catch it when he steps on Kiara's tail; she tries to jump, only to get stopped; Kiara sits up] Well, I just want you to be careful. Kiara, are you listening? Accidents can happen. You could easily get hurt or stepped--

Kiara: Hurt or stepped on or even get lost.

Simba: [steps off Kiara's tail.] And remember, I want you to stay in sight of Pride Rock at all times.

Kiara: [smiles pleadingly] At all times. I know. And if I see any strangers, don't talk to them. Come straight home. Okay, okay. Can I go now? Please?

Simba: [Nala approaches and sits next to Simba.] Hmm. Very funny.

Nala: [chuckles] Mind your father, Kiara.

Kiara: [chuckles] Yes, mom.

Simba: And stay away from the Outlands.

Zazu: [flies down next to Kiara] Nothing there but a bunch of backstabbing, murderous Outsiders.

Simba: [looks over one shoulder.] Zazu's right. You can't turn your back on them.

Kiara: Really? How come?

Simba: [gestures with his head.] Never mind. Just run along now.

Kiara: But, Dad, I--

Simba: You'll understand someday. Go on.

Kiara: [walks toward Simba.; nuzzles against Simba's leg and purrs] Dad.

Simba: [rubs the top of Kiara's head with a paw. She bounds away and starts clambering down Pride Rock; anxiously] And stay on the path I've marked for you.

Nala: [chuckles] Simba, who does she remind you of? Hmm?

Simba: [confused; looks at Nala] Huh? What? Who?

Nala: [nuzzles Simba's chin] She's just like you were when you were young.

Simba: [Nala pins Simba to the ground, and he grunts] Exactly. Do you realize the dangers we put ourselves in?

Nala: [nuzzles Simba and they both purr; chuckles; strides toward the interior of Pride Rock. She smiles at Simba over one shoulder.] You mean the dangers you put us in. She'll be fine.

Simba: [gestures with his head] Hey, Timon. Pumbaa. Come here.

Timon: [sits astride Pumbaa's mane. They look over their shoulders and stride toward Simba.] Good morning, Mon Capitán.

Simba: I want you to keep a close watch on Kiara. You know she's bound to run off.

Timon: No worries, Simba. We're on her like stink on a warthog.

Pumbaa: Hey!

Timon: It's a hard truth, Pumbaa. Live with it.

Simba: [looks left and right] Guys, I'm counting on you. Danger could be lurking behind every rock.

Timon: [looks quizzically at Simba, then takes him seriously; looks left; looks right] Ah-ha. Hmm! Hmm! Hmm.

Timon: Ah, Pumbaa. Look at that little guy. The chip off the old block. And you got to know who's going to raise him.

Pumbaa: His parents?

Kiara: ['''Simba:''' Stay out of this!; smiles; '''Simba:''' But they--; [The Lion Guard|Them? Us? Look at them. They ''are'' us. What differences do you see?] A wise king once told me, "We are one." I didn't understand him then. Now I do. ]

Kiara: ['''Kovu:''' You're kidding. But we're finally together.] We have to go back. Our place is with our pride. If we run away, they'll be divided forever.

Kiara: [most famous quote; [w:Simba|You; [w:Mufasa|Mufasa] ] will never be ]!!!

Kiara: [[w:List of The Lion King (franchise) characters#Kovu|you; laughing; '''Kovu:''' Yeah? You were pretty brave too. My name's Kovu.] Whoa, man, did ] see the size of those teeth? They were like, "Rah-rah-rah-rah!" He was totally gonna eat you up right there, but then I jumped on head, and I bopped him so good! We make such a good team. And you...you were really brave. I'm Kiara.

Simba: [Kovu smiles in respect.; he acknowledges the Outlanders] Kovu, I was wrong. You belong here. Let's go home... ...all of us.

Simba: ['''Kiara:''' Father, how could you break your promise?] It's a good thing I did. I almost lost you. No more hunts for you, not ever.

Simba: [[w:List of The Lion King (franchise) characters#Kiara|you] One day, I won't be here, and I need ] to carry on with my place.

Simba: [[w:List of The Lion King (franchise) characters#Outsiders|you; [w:List of The Lion King (franchise) characters#Kovu|your young cub] (most famous quote) I banished ] from the Pride Lands! Now you and ], get out.
