The Lion Guard: Helping Kia

It was a beautiful day in the  Pridelands.

The Lion Guard was patrolling Hapuna Valley.

"How's Ameba?" Bunga asked.

"She's fine." Fuli answered.

Kion glanced at Ono.

Ono nodded, and took to the sky.

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

“Makuu’s Float is attacking Kia.” Ono said.

Kion and Fuli exchanged a glance.

“Where are they?” Fuli asked.

“They’re at the Water Hole” Ono answered.

“Let’s go, Lion Guard.” Kion said.

He led the way to the Water Hole.

When they arrived, Kion bounded forward.

“Leave her alone, Makuu!” He called.

Makuu chuckled.

“If you use the Roar, you could hurt your niece.” He said.

Kion glanced at Fuli.

Fuli nodded, and moved forward.

She led Kia towards Beshte.

Kion unsheathed his claws, and sank them into the earth underneath him.

He braced himself, and performed the Roar.

It sent Makuu’s Float toppling backwards.

Kion watched them stalk off.

He glanced at Kia.

“Are you okay?” He asked.

Kia nodded.

“Thanks, Lion Guard.” She said.

“You’re welcome.” Fuli said.

Kion moved forward, and knelt down to nuzzle Kia’s cheek.

“I love you, Kia.” Kion said.

“I love you too.” Kia answered.

Meanwhile, Simba and Nala had met up inside the den.

They were settled down amongst the moss.

"How was the hunt?" Simba asked.

"It was fine." Nala answered.

She leaned over, and nuzzled Simba’s cheek.

“I love you” Nala said.

“I love you too.” Simba said warmly.

He extended a paw, and Nala nestled against him.
