Simba died instead of mufasa

Ah, the herd is the move "Zazu said."Yes, it is " Mufasa replied. But he wasn't paying attention he was watching Scar as he neared. "Mufasa, stampede in the gorge Simba's down there" Scar exclaimed. "Simba !"
Simba's pov

I was trying to stay on the branch with all my might. But the wildebeest kept banging against the base of the tree. I finally decided to let go. I flew through the air. Then gave way to welcoming darkness.

Mufasa's pov
