Not so eager to return to Pride Rock after the way the lionesses looked at him when he returned with Mufasa, Scar took to travelling the lands in search for Simba and Nala. A little birdie (seriously) told him that Simba was currently out with his father. This troubled the black prince greatly, for if Simba was last seen alive with Scar, then that would not bode well for him. There was always the possibility of setting up a stampede, but something in the back of his mind told him it wouldn't work.
For the most part of Scar's search, he ignored Xerxes who was left to his own devices on how to be out in the open but unseen. Scar had many supporters and many who would like to see him exiled from the Kingdom. If word got back to Mufasa that his brother was seen traveling with some sort of new creature, no doubt the Lion King would ask to see it. This was one of the most gruelling tasks Scar had ever had to undertake- the capture of his nephew- but the reward was worth it in the end. Pride Rock would be his. Mozenrath had assured him of that.

(OOC: ignore banner XD he is still a cub! *points to avatar*)
Simba had, for the most part, listened to his father about his uncle. Mainly because the young prince hadn't run into his weird uncle since he returned from the jungle.
For now though, the cub was more focused on chasing a grasshopper through the grasses- waiting for Nala to show up so they could do something else. They still had trees to climb after all.
"Gotcha!" hes shouted as he pounced on the grasshopper- letting it go again soon after to chase it down once more. Hopping along after it he didn't notice the strange eel-like creatures wrapped around a near-by tree.

"Simba?"
Nala padded from the tall grass, catching sight of him as he pounced again. She padded up and looked down at the grasshopper. She gave a smirk and stepped on his tail.
"Why not pick on somebody your own size?" *grin*

He'd been just about to pounce when she caught his tail. He gave a small oof as he crashed to the floor- small cloud of dust kicking up as he rolled over to glare slightly at her.
"Liiike you?" he asked with a grin, before giving a short growl. Though he really couldn't pounce her while she was on his tail...

*Timon had been following the two cubs since they left Pride Rock, close but not *too* close, hiding behind brush and rocks. He sighs, mumbling to himself quietly.*
Oy...as much as that blue, banana beaked chatterbox complains, I hate to admit he's right...these two *are* harder to keep up with than it is for a hyena to grasp the idea of thought.
*He watches the two for a moment, chuckling quietly.*
Though...they are pretty cute together like this. ^^;
*Remembering his duty, he clears his throat, and walks out of the grass.*
Okay kids...sorry to be the appointed party pooper and everything, but we should really head back to Pride Rock now. It's uh...past lunch time! ^^
*The meerkat glances around. Something in the air didn't feel right...he couldn't place his paw on it, but something was definitely wrong, and it wasn't just his anxiety.*

"Maaaybe." ^^
She took her paw from his tail, ears perking forward as Timon spoke up.
"Awww... c'mon Uncle Timon! Let us play a little bit longer?"
She gave a grin carefully tailored to getting what she wanted.

Simba rolled over to sit up, looking at the meerkat with a small pout. He glanced at Nala before nodding, "Yeah pops, pleaaase?" he made an innocent grin. Timon would have seen that face a lot while Simba grew up normally- of course, it had never been paired with Nala's own version of it.
"Just a little longer."

*The meerkat squeezed his eyes shut, putting his hand over his face. No, not the face! Frustrated, Timon sighs. He still had a feeling of unsettledness, though...perhaps it was just his imagination? He glances at the two lions.*
Daaah...OKAY, alright! I -hate- when you use that against me. xP But, please...PLEASE promise me you kids'll stay in *this* area, where I can see ya? I got a bad feelin' in the pit of my stomach, and I don't want you guys to wander off too far, okay?

"Thanks uncle Timon!" ^^
She nuzzled him and bounded away from the two of them, sitting where she could see Simba in case he got any ideas.

Simba jumped up, "All right!" he bumped his forehead against Timon gently before bounding after Nala- set on keeping his promise and trying to start a wrestling match with her.

Scar's ears perked up. Not that far off were two very familiar voices speaking. Was it possible? Could this really be so easy??? He shot a look towards the trees where he knew Xerxes was hiding and almost silently made is way through the grass.

She braced herself for his pounce, playfighting with a happy laugh. She made a nip at his ear.

Xerxes watched with eager eyes as the black mane headed towards the cub. He chuckled to himself and flew up. High enough to not draw attention but still making sure he could see.
"Cubs! Cubs! Mozenrath see cubs?!"
The sorcerer was using the familiar to keep an eye on things, seeing what the eel saw reflected in a mirror.
"Excellent Xerxes! Follow them- Oh! And if this fails. You're finished."
The eel gulped and nodded, moving to follow Scar carefully.

"Rawr!"
Simba gave a small half-laugh half-yelp as she nipped his ear, rolling over to go after her tail. He gave a small kitten growl, which really wasn't to frightening as he added a laugh afterwards.

She growled too, laughing when she got his tail.

It wasn't long before Scar spotted the two lion cubs and he called out to them in a silky sweet tone.
'Siiimbaaa,' he sang, acting as if he had been looking for the cub. 'Ah, there you are. And with Nala too.'

Simba had been about to dive at Nala and rescue his tail when Scar spoke up. The young cub ducked down into the grass, ears against his head as his fathers words echoed in his head.
He stood in-front of Nala- some part of him saying he -had- to protect her- before standing up and giving his uncle a rather hard once-over (well as much as a little cub can)
"Hi Uncle Scar! uhm...were you looking for us?" That was new- usually the cubs looked for -him-.

She gave a soft gasp at his voice and peeked out from behind Simba before looking around for Timon.

*The meerkat gulps upon the dark-maned lion's entrance. Okay, so the alert feeling *wasn't* his imagination. He KNEW whatever Scar wanted would probably, most LIKELY mean trouble, but...he'd have to try to play this off as cooly as possible. The things he did for his adoptive son...nevertheless, Timon slid off the rock he was sitting on, and scampers over to the two cubs, poising himself in front of Simba, as relaxed as he could look under pressure.*
Eh, it's alright yer tyran--er, yer uncle-ness, they're with me...we were just gonna head back to Pride Rock, no worries! Come on Simba, Nala...er, Sarabi an' Sarafina are probably wonderin' where ya went to by now! ^^;

Scar sat back on his haunches and lifted a brow, his other eye squinting as he regarded the meerkat. He had no idea who this tiny obstacle was, but seeing as he knew the names of the cubs mothers, the lion assumed Mufasa would know the meerkat as well.
"Your father taught you how to hunt, did he, Simba?" Scar leaned forward so he was practically nose to nose with Timon. "What exactly is it you've caught for lunch?" A toothy grin formed on his face.

Simba gave a small gasp at that suggestion, padding forward and bounding towards Scar, "No Uncle Scar! He's not lunch! He's my pops !" he said urgently, stepping next to Timon and butting his Uncle's head lightly.
He smiled up at the older lion, responding to the first question, "Yeah! Zebra's and he said we could go after antelope next!"

Nala pulled Timon close to her with her paw, her ears laying back. She didnt know why, but the lionesses all got really tense whenever Scar was around. So, she did as they did.

*Timon felt his tiny heart lurch just a bit when Simba called him Pops, and could of very well fainted in fear right then and there, being dangerously close to the potential predator at hand. He knew he had to get them out of there, and fast...he clears his throat, patting Nala gently on the back, and stretching. The meerkat walks up to Simba putting a paw on his shoulder.*
Uy...w-well how about that, huh? Learnin' to hunt...Simba, you should probably rest up before yer next lesson; Runnin' after animals is energy consuming, after all...come on, you can tell me all about it on the way home! ;D
*He made an attempt to make eye contact with Simba, gesturing with his head very lightly in the opposite direction.*
