Scar VS Shere Khan

Shere Khan stands  ust a few feet away from the immense plateau known as Pride Rock. Sitting atop, he can barely make out the shape of a lion.

Shere Khan: So this is to be my opponent. I hope Kaa was correct when he said this lion would give me a challenge.

He moves up the  rocks, his large shoulders swaying up and down as he does so. The lion, Scar, is resting at the tip of the cliff, staring out at all the light touches. His ear twitches as he hears Shere Khan approaching.

Scar: If this is Mufasa yet again, I just may throw myself from this very cliff for a change.

When he turns around, a surprised look appears on his face as Shere Khan steps towards him.

Scar: What are you doing on my rock?

Shere Khan: Your rock? So I suppose you’re King Mufasa?

Scar: Don't insult me. I am the truly rightful heir to the Pride Lands, Scar.

Shere Khan: Indeed. Well, I am Shere Khan. And…I’m afraid I don’t carry a lofty title to compensate with.

Scar: (growling) A joke at my expense?!

Shere Khan: (chuckling) "Oh, no, no, yours for free. You look as though you can’t afford more expenses.

Scar: Your sense of humor is as dry as your bones will be when I feed you to the hyenas, tiger.

Scar rises from his place on Pride Rock and glares at the still chuckling tiger.

Shere Khan: Oh, I’m shaking in my orange and black pelt! Now, I hate a terribly easy bout. Which is why I’ll give you a head start to run away. I’ll count to ten.

Shere Khan closes his eyes.

Scar: Really now? Patronizing me in such a manner will only make things worse for you.

Scar watches in confusion as Shere Khan starts counting.

Shere Khan: One... two... three... four...

Before the tiger can reach five, Scar angrily drags his claw down his eye, making him cry out in pain. Scar smiles as Shere Khan is drawn backwards from the blow. Shere Khan shakes it off as blood drips from his face.

Shere Khan: I gave you a chance to run and you scratch my eye? No matter. I’m sure such a scar will look better on me anyhow.

The preview ends as Shere Khan lunges at Scar with a mighty roar.
