The Lion Guard: Enemy Sighted

t was a peaceful day in the Pridelands.

Kion and the Guard were doing a patrol in Hapuna Valley.

"How's Ameba, Fuli?" Kion asked.

Fuli smiled warmly at the mention of her sister.

"She's fine" she said.

Kion glanced at Ono.

Ono nodded and took to the sky.

He returned a moment later and settled down on Beshte's back.

"What'd you see?" Bunga asked.

Ono cleared his throat.

"Mzingo is hunting in Ukuni Woods." He said.

Kion and Fuli exchanged a glance.

"Lion Guard, let's go" Kion said.

He led his friends to Ukuni Woods.

When they reached it, Kion saw Mzingo approaching a hyrax.

"Ono, who is that?" Kion asked quietly.

Ono strained his vision.

"It's Leaf, Kion" Ono reported.

Instantly, Kion lunged forward.

He and the Guard quickly surrounded Mzingo.

Mzingo glanced up in surprise.

Kion growled.

"Get away from the hyrax" Kion snapped.

Mzingo chuckled.

"Who's gonna make me?" He asked.

Kion and Fuli exchanged a glance.

Fuli nodded and gestured for Leaf to come to her.

She bent down and gently grasped Leaf in her jaws.

"I'm going to use the Roar" Kion said.

Fuli led their friends and Leaf to a safe distance.

Kion braced himself and performed the Roar.

He watched Mzingo catapult towards Broken Rock.

Kion turned back to his team.

He smiled as Fuli gently set Leaf down.

"Are you okay, Leaf?" He asked.

Leaf nodded.

"Thanks, Kion" Leaf said.

Meanwhile, Simba and Nala had decided to spend time with Mari.

"How's your day going, Mari?" Simba asked.

"It's going fine" Marigold answered.

She curled into Simba's side.

Simba and Nala exchanged a fond glance.

Nala blinked affectionately at Mari and a purr rose in her throat.

She leaned over and nuzzled Mari's cheek.

"Papa, tell me a story" Mari said.

Simba chuckled.

"Which one do you want to hear?" He asked.

"I want to hear about Grandpa" Mari said.

Simba and Nala exchanged a glance.

"Okay, Mari" Simba said.

He began to tell her about Mufasa.

Mari yawned and snuggled closer to Simba.

Nala pressed her body against Simba's side.
