MY MOMENT OF GLORRRYYY

Hi my name is NUKA and I live in the in the Outlands with my MOTHER ZIRA, my sister Vitani and my brother KOVU. I was supposed to be next in line to be king but MOTHER WON'T EVEN GIVE ME A CHANCE. Now the little hairball KOVU is in my way.

Facilier held out his hand to the younger male. “I gotta know you trust me. Shake my hand, or else the magic won’t work!” Facilier waited while Nuka slowly reached out and took his hand. Facilier gave it a good shake, making a pact of trust.

“Now kid, hold on to your hats and glasses and whatnots, ‘cuz this is gonna be a crazy ride! I’m calling for assistance from my friends on the other side!” As Facilier yelled out the last part, a disquieting metamorphosis began around the duo. Swirls like red water cascaded over them in a dome, albeit a dome with large holes in it. Slowly however, these swirls slowly grew together creating a protective bubble around them. With a final wave of his hand, Facilier finished the spell, causing the bubble to close in around them. From an outside view, it would appear that a small red tent had been caught in the wind as the bubble shot off into the sky.

Inside the bubble was a different scenario. The insides worked like a chameleon, taking the colors that were passing and quickly making a kaleidoscopic image that would cause anyone unused to the travel to vomit profusely. Finally, after a whirlwind of a trip, the duo was suddenly standing in the courtyard of a castle, complete with a small well for collecting water.

“So kid, what did ya think?” Facilier asked Nuka.

[momentofgloryy]

Nuka extended a shaky hand out to Facilier as promise that he trusted him. Nuka was scared out of his mind, and completely clueless as to what was going on around him but sure, he trusted Facilier. There wasn't anyone else he could trust to help him anyway, Facilier was all he knew in this strange new place filled with humans. During the time he'd been there, he hadn't seen one other animal to relate to and certainly no other lions wandering about. He was very out of his element, not that he really "fit in" back home either. It seemed as though Nuka was doomed to alway be an outsider no matter where he ended up.

After sealing the deal with Facilier, the atmosphere around them changed drastically. The noisy parade looked warped as he looked through it from inside colorful swirls that surrounded them and drowned out all excess noises. The swirls slowly consumed them until they were wrapped up in a color changing bubble that caused them to travel elsewhere. "WHAT'S HAPPENING? I DON'T LIKE THIS! LET ME OUT LET ME OUT!" Nuka screamed in panic as he always did. Everything was changing so fast. First being transported to a new place, then changing form, and now traveling by what could only be described as magic. It was way too much for his tiny little brain to handle.

Nuka began to get dizzy from the quickly changing colors and fell down with a thud. He even blacked out for a minute or two, but when he woke up, instead of looking up at the inside of the colorful dome they were once enclosed in, he was looking up at a dark cloudy sky, which was still spinning from when he hit his head. He jolted up though, his head throbbing, and looked around at their new surroundings. 

 They were right outside of a large castle. It was the largest building Nuka had seen so far. The castle was up on a cliff, one piece of land that was familiar to Nuka which eased him a little bit. He stood up slowly once his head stopped spinning. The castle was white with many, many towers and pointed red rooftops. It actually looked very inviting. "WHAT IS THIS?! WHERE ARE WE?! I DON'T KNOW WHAT THAT IS BUT CAN WE GO INSIDE PLEASE PLEEEEEAAASEEEEE?" Nuka said, jumping up and down. He was actually excited to be in this new place, rather than scared like in the last place they were. It was calmer here, no other people around and not as noisy or suffocating. Nuka ran right up the steps, on all fours just so he could get up there faster. When he got to the large double doors, he stopped almost hitting his head in the process. He really could not wait to get inside and began twitching with excitement. Little did he know what awaited him on the inside.

Facilier watched in terror as the younger male stumbled into the oncoming parade. He sighed as he leaped in to save the kid. He managed to fight the oncoming traffic and find Nuka curled tightly into himself.

“Pull yourself together, kid!” he called as he lifted the boy to his feet. He then held tight and dragged Nuka out of the crowd and down the street. Once he felt they were safe from the voodoo gods, he turned to Nuka and said, “Alright kid, there is only one way I can think to truly lose them. You gotta trust me though. Can you trust me?”

[momentofgloryy]

As Nuka shut down while cringing on the ground in the middle of the parade, he could see long rows of people carrying instruments coming very close to him. The music was blaring all around him to the point where it was all he could hear. His hearing wasn't as good as it used to be when he was in his old lion body, but it was still much too loud for his liking. All of this, the events that happened today and in the past month really were like a horrible never ending nightmare. Especially this day. Earlier in the morning Nuka was living his normal life of disappointment in the outlands with his mother, sister, two brothers and his sort-of-father. Now he was still a disappointment, just in a different body and about to be trampled by other humans like him.

Facilier snatched him up out of the crowd before anything could happen though. Good thing too, because he almost peed himself out of fear for the second time. Once Nuka was somewhat stable on his feet, Nuka led him further away from the parade down the street. The music was much more distant now and there were much less people around but he had no idea where they were going. "WHAT'S GOING ON! WHAT WAS THAT? WHERE ARE WE GOING NOW? OH FINE, I TRUST YOU BUT WHAT ARE WE DOING NOW!" Nuka stumbled a bit on his wobbly legs to keep up with Faclilier's fast pace.

Facilier chuckled at how easily the young “man” could be amused. He finished making sure they were good before he answered. ”Well now,” he said, slowly walking to his new companion. “Now, we make our departure. If all is as I’m thinking-“

Facilier was cut off from his statement when he heard a small growl near the back of his shop. The growl was then slowly accompanied by another manner of dangerous noises, including some high pitched laughter. Facilier finally finished his statement, “-they should be arriving soon. Now, RUN!!!” He grabbed the young one and pushed him towards the door, following closely as the back room seemed to come to life in a flash of green light. An odd assortment of voodoo paraphernalia, including voodoo dolls and masks, came pouring out of the room, heading in the direction of the fleeing figures. 

[momentofgloryy]

Nuka's eyes grew wide again when he heard the stirring that was coming from the other room. The green light and strange noises caught his attention instantly, he wanted to see what it was but Facilier was already pulling him out of the shop. "HEY WAIT WHAT WA-," Nuka began to say but was interrupted when Facilier shoved him harder out the doorway, screaming at him to run. Nuka did as he was told and ran ahead of Facilier, he was still pretty fast for a human but it was nothing compared to his lion speed. 

He still wasn't used to running on two legs rather than four though and lost his balance on more than one occasion while they ran. He would stumble to the ground, catch himself by pushing his hands out to break his fall, get back up to continue running then repeat the cycle. Once he finally got the hang of it his running was wobbly but it got him where he needed to go. Facilier ran just behind him, maintaining his speed perfectly. 

Nuka wasn't sure where they were going or how far they were supposed to run. When he turned around to ask Facilier about it, he realized running without looking didn't work too well for him. He ended up falling to the ground and rolling right in the middle of a parade. Nuka picked up his head, looked around and saw all the happy people marching around him. He could see Facilier through the crowd so he just curled up into a ball and cringed in fear of getting trampled.

Facilier looked at his work in astonishment. He had done his work for quite some time, but never had a transformation without help from his “friends” go so smoothly. He chuckled as Nuka tried to get up and landed square on his butt. “Easy there, kiddo. A transformation like that will take a bit of energy from you. Just be calm and steady. You’ll get used to it soon enough.”

Facilier double checked the provisions he had set. He then went over to a chest of drawers and pulled out a few pieces of his spare clothing and threw them at the kid. “You running around in your birthday suit would scare people as much as if you were still a lion. Best you put those on.”

[momentofgloryy]

Nuka opened his mouth wide trying to catch the clothes. That's how he and any lion would catch things, with their mouths. Then he realized, that's what his new arms were for, catching and holding things. Nuka started flailing his arms with his mouth still wide open as the clothes flew at him. He looked like a complete idiot. The clothes ended up falling flat to the ground at his feet. He scrambled to pick them up and after a lot of struggling, he finally managed to put them on and look somewhat decent. 

Since the clothes Facilier's, he wore an outfit similar to his. Long, dark pants; a tight, plain sleeveless shirt, and a jacket to go over it. Everything fit just a little looser on him than Facilier since he was smaller than him. He bounced around excitedly, now that he had clothes he felt a little more human. "I think I'll like being human! SO WHAT NOW!?"

“Someone you definitely don’t want to meet,” Facilier answered. He grabbed a few things from the cupboard, and ran out of the room, shutting it tightly. “We probably should do something about you before we leave, kid.” With that, he put some powder on his hand and blew it directly at Nuka. The powder swirled around him as it began its transformation.

[momentofgloryy]

When Nuka paused waiting for Facilier he noticed he was carrying some things from the room they'd just run out of. Before Nuka could even ask, Facilier blew some powdery stuff at him that made him sneeze rather loudly. "HEY WHAT WAS THAT FO-," Nuka began to say but stopped mid sentence. Something strange was happening to him. He was changing very quickly before his eyes. 

He sat on the ground, dumbfounded as he watched his body morph into something else. He was crouched on his hind legs that were now shrinking, becoming slimmer, less hairy. In fact, all the fur that once covered his body was shedding, leaving bare skin on his face and torso. There was still a thin layer of of hair left on his arms and legs. Where his paws should have been there were much smaller features with long skinny extremities branching off of them. That was only one set though. They other set, that were attached to where his hind legs were were more square like and the extremities coming off them were shorter and stubby. These were his new hands and feet, Nuka didn't know that though of course. 

Nuka was now a human being, complete with hands arms and feet. He reached up to touch his head with his new hands. There was a thick patch of black hair covering the top of his head. Nuka then slid his hand over his face, rubbing his new human nose which stuck out much more than his old one. His hand then moved to his chin where another small patch of hair was. 

After examining his new features he looked up at Facilier who was standing up across from him. Nuka jumped up, trying to mimicked his posture, "THIS IS GREAT!" His arms and legs flailed about as he jumped in the air and instead of landing back on his feet as any human would, he landed hard on his butt, still not used to his new body. "OW!" He yelped as he rubbed his now sore butt. He got up again, slower this time but wobbly and stayed still. If he tried to move or walk or do anything else, he'd fall over for sure.

“Now now, my friend, all in good time,” Facilier said as he went towards his cupboard. He was searching through it when he noticed a small shard just barely inside on the bottom shelf. He picked it up, and realized that his only crystal ball, though he tried little to use it, had been broken. To him, this was not a good sign.

“Uh, Nuka, we probably should get out of here soon,” he said. “Just to let you know, there are some… things that do not like me, and I think they might be on the trail. So we should probably make our visit here brief.”

[momentofgloryy]

Nuka ran around frantically inside of Facilier's place. There was so much to see! It was dark, almost like the caves back in his old home in Africa. Everywhere he looked there were strange looking figures and masks with the creepiest faces. Everything was very delicate and not animal friendly at all. Nuka still had some fear in him from when Scar screamed at him and did not want to endure the same with Facilier. It took everything in him not to grab at everything with his big bulky paws. 

He Facilier picked up something broken and looked at him guiltily. Even though Nuka hadn't broken the glass in Facilier''s hand, he was so used to messing up and being blamed for everything that he assumed it was his fault. Nuka listened to Facilier and darted out of the room. His nervous twitch quickly came back. "WHAT HAPPENED? WHY DID WE HAVE TO LEAVE? WHO'S IN THERE?" Nuka nervously screamed at Facilier, causing a few heads to turn. Nuka slowed down his pace a little, allowing Facilier to catch up and explain to him what was going on.

Nuka jumped up when the man began to speak. He was a bit creepy but because of Nuka’s lack of good judgement, he trusted him anyway. “HI I’M NUKA. MY FATHER, I-I MEAN SCAR SENT ME HERE. WHAT’S VOODO? IS THAT A FOOD? IS HOODOO A FOOD TOO? I WOULD LIKE SOME FOOD.” His twitch was out of control as he spoke to Facilier and he was a bit delirious from the trip to New Orleans. He looked around wide eyed. He had so many questions, mostly stupid questions, about the new place he’d be living in for probably the rest of his life. 

[ivegotfriendsontheotherside-blog]

Facilier looked at the lion and said, “Maybe we should get you off the street first. Follow me.” He then walked back down the way he had came, and soon the pair were standing at the door to his voodoo shop in the alley. “Now son, voodoo isn’t food, nor hoodoo. To put it in an easy to understand term, it’s like magic. I can read your future, change it around some too. I can look deep into your heart and soul and make your wildest dream come true.”

[momentofgloryy]

Nuka followed behind Facilier, getting strange looks from other humans walking the streets. Lions were not exactly common in New Orleans, some people screamed in fright at the sight of him, others just ran to the other side of the street, not wanting to be anywhere near him. Nuka was used to other animals not wanting to be near him so he didn't expect humans to act any differently. He dragged himself across the ground by his paws, trying to scratch some fleas off his rear end. 

"Awww BUT I WANT FOOD!" Nuka wined as his stomach growled. His eyes grew wide and he got excited at the mention of magic. He didn't know what it was but he thought he'd like it. "I WANT TO SEE SOME MAGIC!"

Facilier was walking along the street, hoping to find some poor soul to bewitch and obtain their fortune. He just so happened to look up to see a lion walking around the city in broad daylight. The lion was rather scrawny and he looked to be a slight bit injured. Facilier had a better look and saw the eyes of the lion, which looked like the eyes of a previous client of his. He didn’t want to get on her bad side, so he walked over to the lion and bowed.

“Dr. Facilier at your service, my friend. What brings you to New Orleans? Care for a little bit of voodoo or hoodoo? I can help you out for anything you wish.”

[momentofgloryy]

Nuka jumped up when the man began to speak. He was a bit creepy but because of Nuka's lack of good judgement, he trusted him anyway. "HI I'M NUKA. MY FATHER, I-I MEAN SCAR SENT ME HERE. WHAT'S VOODO? IS THAT A FOOD? IS HOODOO A FOOD TOO? I WOULD LIKE SOME FOOD." His twitch was out of control as he spoke to Facilier and he was a bit delirious from the trip to New Orleans.

Scar was absolutely livid with Nuka. He had no idea what to do with him. He thought long and hard about his punishment, pacing back and forth. Finally, he thought of something. He would send Nuka to New Orleans. That way, there was an entire ocean separating them, he’d have food, and he could be around his good friend Facillier and he could take care of him.

“Nuka!” Scar called, “I have a place for you. I’m banishing you once again.” He saw the look on Nuka face and hushed him before he could speak and continued, “I’m sending you to New Orleans, and don’t you dare even think of coming back without my permission ever again, do you understand me?”

[momentofgloryy]

Nuka jumped so high in the air when he heard Scar call his name he thought he'd just fly away. He came back down with a loud clumsy thud on the cave floor, scraping is paws in the process. He resisted the urge to yelp in pain, he was already afraid enough of what his punishment would be. With a nervous turn of his head and a lump in his throat, Nuka cautiously approached Scar. Once he heard what Scar had to say and saw the look on his face, a look of pure anger and hatred, Nuka was scared to silence. Protesting or promising to be on best behavior did not even cross his mind once. Nuka was by no means a smart lion, but he was smart enough to realize what was happening to him. He was being sent away to a strange place to never see his family again. A tear threatened to roll down his face but he wouldn't let it. Nuka just looked down and wiped it away with an injured paw, "I understand," he said in the quietest voice to ever come out of his mouth. With that Nuka walked off without a goodbye and without looking back. 

About a week later he collapsed once he had reached New Orleans. Well, he wasn't exactly sure it was New Orleans, but he did know that he was somewhere different because there was no desert land anywhere and there didn't seem to be any other lions around. He perked up a bit once a tall slender man began to walk over to him.

[scartaka-blog]

A surprise

[scartaka-blog]

Scar was absolutely furious at Nuka, but he was a little mad at Zira too. How could she let this happen? “I suspect you knew about this… How could you let this happen? Why would you let this happen? You had to of known I would find out and be furious, so why?”

[thatsmy-lullaby-deactivated2012]

“Because maybe, I actually care about our children!” Zira snapped. “You think I want any of them starving away to nothing by themselves when we can hardly get by here?” She sighed heavily, looking towards the entrance to the cave where Nuka was still inside. “I hoped that maybe if I kept him in there, he’d have sense enough to lie low until things worked out in the Pride Lands. But apparently that was far too much to hope for.”

[momentofgloryy]

Nuka stayed alone in the cave while Zira and Scar talked outside. His nervous itch started to come back and before he knew it, he was frantically scratching all over. He couldn't control himself and without thinking (as if he ever thought) he scratched right over the open wound on his face, causing more bleeding. He yelped in pain which echoed through the cave then rubbed the gash, getting more blood on his paw. Nuka couldn't take the wait any longer, he was too anxious to know what Zira and Scar were talking about. He ran up to the cave entrance then crept out slowly, really trying for once to not draw any attention to himself. However, that did not last long, "Soooo, CAN I STAY MOTHER!?"

[scartaka-blog]

A surprise

[scartaka-blog]

Scar stared at his wife for a moment, eyes bulging. He couldn’t believe what he had just heard. “You KNEW about this?! And you didn’t TELL me?!” Scar was outraged. He couldn’t believe Zira would keep something this important from him.

[thatsmy-lullaby-deactivated2012]

“I was hoping I wouldn’t have to tell you,” Zira replied, snapping back at him. In her mind, she knew that allowing Nuka to stay in the underground caves was a terrible idea. He wasn’t smart enough to keep himself hidden away, and this confrontation was inevitable. “He was having a harder time surviving on his own than we are here. Nuka may be a disgrace but that does not mean I want him dead.”

[momentofgloryy]

Nuka finally got up the strength to stand up. The blood from the gash on his face was now dried to his fur. He forgot all about it for a minute because he couldn't believe what he was hearing. Was his mother actually sticking up for him? He couldn't remember a time when she showed him this much kindness. "MOTHER ARE YOU STICKING UP FOR ME? YOU DO CARE!" Nuka ran up to Zira and hid behind her from Scar. He finally felt like someone cared about him, even if it was only a little bit.

[scartaka-blog]

A surprise

Scar walked around the caves thinking. He had a lot on his plate still. He had Alfondi, he had banished Nuka, and he had to keep his marriage stable. All of this while still figuring out how he could be king again. It was a lot to manage.

Suddenly, as Scar was mid-thought, Shenzi came running up to him.

“Scar! Nuka has returned! He’s in the underground caves. You have to do something!”

“WHAT” Scar hissed. He was infuriated, how could Nuka have the audacity to return?! Scar ran to the underground caves, and lo and behold, Nuka was there chasing mice.

 ”HOW DARE YOU DISOBEY ME. THIS IS WHY I WILL NEVER CONSIDER YOU MY SON. HOW DARE YOU COME BACK AFTER I BANISH YOU.” Scar swiped his claws across Nukas face, leaving a bloody cut down the middle of his face. “Just wait until your mother hears about this.” Scar muttered under his breath.

[momentofgloryy]

Nuka was trying to remain as quiet as he possibly could which was not an easy job for him. He sat in the corner of the cave alone, trying to remain unseen and scratching against the cave wall nervously. “KEEP CALM NUKA. AS LONG AS YOU STAY DOWN HERE YOU WON’T GET INTO TROUBLE,” he kept telling himself. A small mouse scurried out of no where, it was a fast little thing too. Nuka’s stomach began to grumble just at the sight of it. He crept away from his corner to chase after it. Being a lion, you’d think he were superior to this mouse and could catch it easily, but no, not Nuka. He was getting close when he heard the sound of paws trotting down into the cave. He didn’t pay attention to it though, thinking it was just one of the lionesses. Then, a tall shadow cast over him, followed by deafening angry shouts from Scar. The mouse Nuka was trying to catch no longer mattered. He was in some deep trouble now. He curled up into a ball on the ground in fright of Scar. Nuka had never been more scared in his entire life. In fact, he was so scared that his bladder got the best of him and…leaked. He squirmed trying to cover it up, he thought he was done for when Scar raised a paw and swiped his face hard. The gash stung and the blood raced down his face matting his fur. Nuka laid there in pain as Scar looked at him in complete disgust. Just when he thought things couldn't get any worse, he heard the sound of someone else coming. He hoped whoever it was, it wouldn't be another attack. 

[momentofgloryy]

Forgiveness

[momentofgloryy]

Nuka flinched at the swipe of Zira’s paw across his cheek. He yelped in pain as a new scratch formed. It was clear Zira would not be taking his apology easily. “I-I-I didn’t know what else to do! THERE WAS NOWHERE FOR ME TO GO.  I’ll stay out of Da-Scar’s way though! I’ll….I’ll stay out of everyone’s way,” he said standing up now and looking to the ground. “It’ll be like I’m not even here.”

[thatsmy-lullaby-deactivated2012]

“And you think that matters to your father?” Zira snapped, eyes wide with anger. The majority of her anger, however, was fueled by worry. As much as she loved Scar, she knew he wouldn’t be easy on Nuka. And really, she wasn’t any easier on her children, but she was still a mother and that made her worry about her children. She just had a violent way of showing it. 

Zira jerked her head back to the cave opening. “Go,” she said. “You know where the underground caves are. Stay in there. Don’t come out unless it’s for food and water and even then, be extra careful. I don’t want Scar or anyone else knowing you’re here.”

[momentofgloryy]

Nuka began to panic. He tried not to show it but he was never good at hiding his emotions. He was twitchier than ever as he imagined what Scar would do when he found him. Maybe he would have been better off wandering around the Savannah half starved. He probably could have survived that way but he knew he didn't stand a chance against Scar. Even if he was his father (Nuka was still fuzzy on that) he probably would have no problem finishing him off. Nuka was too scared to stick around any longer. Following his mother's orders, Nuka scurried our of the cave, tripping along the way, and ran to the underground cave where he cowered in fear for the rest of the night.  

[momentofgloryy]

Forgiveness

Nuka had been off on his own for quite some time now. “I’ll show them! I can take care of myself! I’ll be better off without Kovu or Alfondi getting in my way,” he thought to himself. This however, was not the case. He’d lost track of he time but it had to be at least a couple of months give or take. He was just barely getting by, wandering from place to place, surviving on little to no food. Mice were hard to come by and he wasn’t strong enough to hunt for anything else. Nuka didn’t know what else to do for himself at this point. He knew he was banished from his home despite his apologies, but going back was his only chance of surviving. He crept into the cave cautiously. He flinched at the sound his paws made against the ground. The sound echoed into the empty cave and he froze, looking around. From where he stood, he couldn’t see Scar or Kovu or even Alfondi. He continued into the cave when he heard a voice behind him. He froze in place again then turned around. “Mother?” He ran to her, not caring if she was angry to see him or not. “MOTHER MOTHER IMSORRYIMSORRYIMSOSOSOOOSORRY PLEASEPLEASEFORGIVEME IJUSTWANNACOMEHOME,” he laid at her paws, his words running together as he begged for forgiveness. 

[thatsmy-lullaby-deactivated2012]

Luckily for Nuka, Scar was currently not in the cave. He was off dealing with the hyenas, or something of the sort, and Zira was returning to the cave alone. As she approached the cave, she heard someone’s voice. A familiar voice at that, one she was quite certain belonged to Nuka. Had Nuka finally come home? Although she wouldn’t show it, she had actually been quite worried about it. As much of a disappointment as he was, Zira still cared for him. How could she not? He was her son, after all, and her firstborn at that. 

At last walking into the cave, she discovered she was correct. Zira gazed down at him angrily and swiped a paw at his cheek, though not as hard as she normally would. The damage was minimal and hardly drew blood. Finally, she let out a sigh, letting her cold exterior drop just a bit. “Nuka, why did you come back? You know Scar will not be so easy on you this time.” 

[momentofgloryy]

Nuka flinched at the swipe of Zira's paw across his cheek. He yelped in pain as a new scratch formed. It was clear Zira would not be taking his apology easily. "I-I-I didn't know what else to do! THERE WAS NOWHERE FOR ME TO GO.  I'll stay out of Da-Scar's way though! I'll....I'll stay out of everyone's way," he said standing up now and looking to the ground. "It'll be like I'm not even here."
