Scar had soon entered the Cavern by the Thorn Gardens as it had several paths, and was quite wide.
However, he felt pure disgust as he had allowed himself to stop putting on a facade for now.
These individuals were to be allies with him? He didnt like it in the slightest.
He never felt more disgusted as he felt as if he was the brains of the group so far.
However, he had yet to meet The Five Mozenrath mentioned as he had hated to admit, but he missed Banzai, Shenzi and Ed.... Even though they and their pack ate him alive.
Well, a useful king needs to have his vassals, I shall not count them out quite yet... However, despite their idiocy, they're quite powerful. Scar made these thoughts as he was thinking, and began to claw at the walls as he needed to release some form of stress.
He was still a Lion afterall....

Joanna couldn't help but get lost herself in the castle. It was such a big place...well, not like the big she was used to. Her old place with McLeach was in the grand open outback, after all. But this castle...it had many twists and turns...many paths and rooms...if it wasn't for her own sense of smell, she'd probably not remember where she's been.
That didn't stop her from continuing to look for a storage area like McLeach asked of her. She continued searching until she found a particular cavern.
Looks like the caves back home, she thought, looking around. Maybe their storage area's also in a cave like ours was. Let's have a quick look around...
She entered the cave, unaware that there could be a lion in here.

Scar was now stretching he was soon spotting the lizard as he soon stared at her.
"What a surprise. To think that someone like you would come here?" Scar muttered in disbelief as he was putting back his facade as he knew that she wasnt much of a threat compared to the humanoids and even the rat.

As soon as she heard the rich, growling voice of Scar, Joanna froze in fear. She slowly turned her head to see where the voice came from and nearly fainted at the sight of a lion. Even if the lion didn't seem as well fed or as strong as what she thought lions were like...this guy was still a freakin' lion and definitely stronger than her. Probably wouldn't be surprised if it was one of the villains brought here like her master.
"Oh, eh..." she said in a sheepish, raspy female voice, "G'day."
She gave a slight wave with her claw-covered hands, looking slightly uncomfortable in his presence while trying to play it off. "I-I take it that this isn't the...the, um...supply area, is it?"
She let out a slight "heheh..." as she tried to smile and show she wasn't a threat. As if he didn't realize that already since he's a frickin' lion...I hope he doesn't try to eat me...

"This isnt a supply area. However, it seems to lead back to the castle... by miraculous means. That being said... From what I can tell, you're quite scared. Aren't you?" Scar told her as he made a grin just to freak her out as he had enjoyed toying with her a lot.

Oh, he's onto me already.
"Whaaaat?" Joanna asked, backing up a step and trying to play it off while her voice cracked a bit. "I...heh, nooo. That's...I mean, maybe. It's not like I've suddenly been pulled into a portal that brought me and my master to a castle where all sorts of magic exists and all sorts of mean, powerful people are lurking around every corner."
She realize that the majority of what she said was spoken fairly fast as if the words were merged together a bit...before she suddenly realized something.
"Wait...wait a moment," she spoke up, almost excited. "You can...you can actually understand me!"
She took a few steps forward before remember that he is, in fact, a lion. "That's...that's actually righteous. Fair Dinkum*, that's refreshing."
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- "Fair Dinkum" is Australian slang for "honestly"

"It comes naturally. Afterall, I was also summoned as well... Though, it seems that you're quite relieved. Your story is interesting. I must admit." He told her as he had figured when she mentioned Master, she referred to a human and merely shook his head clearly not a fan of hunters.

Joanna tilted her head a bit in curiosity at his words. "You think I'm interesting," she questioned. "How so?"

"Being able to live with a human either drains your will to be free or you kill every human to retain that freedom. You're quite unique." Scar admitted as he saw this as a means to get to know her owner.

"Oh, I still get to have some fun when I want," she assured him...although she wasn't sure of what she could say about what she and McLeach did that wouldn't possibly disturb the bigger predator in front of her. "Sure, I guess I'm the equivalent to a sidekick or...maybe a pet in our partnership, but I still get to hunt down my own prey and eat all the eggs I want."

"Interesting... That's quite interesting..." Scar muttered as he was amused at what she said as he was stretching his body once more.

"Oh, it's fun," Joanna giggled, thinking of all of the eggs...
"...Oh! I almost forgot," Joanna realized. "My name is Joanna. It's a pleasure to meet you!"

"Call me Scar. Funny thing, I used to rule the Pridelands before I got... dethroned." Scar made his explanation as he was beginning to frown trying to not lose his temper.

"Oh sh-you're a king??" She exclaimed. "I'm terribly sorry to hear that, mate-I MEAN, your highness."
She gave a quick bow with her head, even dragging one of her arms in front of her to complete the show of respect before bringing her head back up. "Well, at least these Powerful Five people are going to grant us chances to get back at the blokes who got in our ways, right?"

This genuinely surprised the Lion as he didn't expect her to remotely bow, but smirked at that nonetheless.
"So I've heard. These five are quite interesting from what I have heard, however I must be going. Afterall, I still have allies to meet. It has been quite... nice talking to you." Scar told her as he had liked Johanna enough to not eat her, for now...
Soon enough, he would be walking through the path Johanna walked and the way Scar entered would only lead to the gardens.
