The Lion Guard Season 3 (Iago PUC's version)

Iago PUC's version of the third season of The Lion Guard is an alternate TV series story-line for the season. Like its previous seasons, the season is broadcast on Disney Junior.

Premise
Following Scar's final defeat at the beggining of the season, life continues at Africa as Kion and the Lion Guard continue protecting the Pride Lands and preserving the Circle of Life. The Guard and their friends and allies soon come across two new species they had never encountered on Africa before: a clan of black panthers who worship the feline goddess Bastet, and humans, who are unaware of the Pride Lands' existence. The Guard and their allies soon make new friends with female pre-teenage panther Suki and young human Fiona Watson. However, the Guard must still battle against Zira and her Outsiders (who seek to take over Pride Lands by any means and exterminate the humans, whom they view as menaces) and a group of human mercenaries who are unaware of Pride Lands's existence and are scavenging the wild for an unknown treasure hidden somewhere in the heart of Africa.

In anger, Scar used the Roar to kill the lion and snake, however, Mufasa mocked his brother and gave him the terrible nickname of Scar, leading to Scar plotting to dethrone Mufasa, before abusing his power by using the Roar to destroy his Guard. In the years that followed the Lion Guard's downfall, Scar plots with the hyenas to rule over the Pride Lands, eventually leading to Mufasa's death, and Simba's exile from the Pride Lands.
