The Lion Guard: Finding Guidance

It was a peaceful day in The Pridelands.

Kion was heading to Broken Rock to spend time with Jasiri.

He had told his parents that he'd be playing with Twiga all morning.

When Kion reached Broken Rock, he was pleased to see Jasiri waiting for him.

Kion bounded forward to greet her.

"Hi Jasiri" he said.

Jasiri glanced up and chuckled.

"Hi Kion" she answered.

They stood together and gazed at the Outlands.

"Despite our upbringing, we're the same Kion" Jasiri said quietly.

Kion glanced at her.

"Jasiri, I'm in love with a cheetah and my older sister married an Outsider, I think the Circle of Life can handle us being friends" Kion said.

Jasiri nodded.

Meanwhile, Nita had met up with Rafiki at his tree.

She was sorting borage leaves and he was counting juniper berries.

"Rafiki, Nai Nai says that there was a drought during Yeh-Yeh and Grandma Uru's reign" Nita said suddenly.

Rafiki nodded.

"I've told that story many times to Belee and Kia." Rafiki answered.

"I wish I could be as brave as Grandma Uru someday" Nita said quietly.

"I'm sure you'll make us all proud" Rafiki said.

He glanced up and muttered something under his breath.

Meanwhile, Belee and Kia had met up with Sarabi at Hapuna Valley.

They were watching Twiga and Sitka play Baobab Ball.

"Nai Nai, I'm glad Aunty's going to have another cub" Belee said.

Kia nodded.

Sarabi's expression softened.

"I'm anxious to welcome another into my heart." She said.

"Nai Nai, can you tell us about Grandpa Mufasa?" Kia asked.

Sarabi nodded.

"Once when Mufasa and I were both adolescents, I had gotten trapped in the Gorge, Zazu flew past and I sent him to fetch Mufasa. Mufasa rescued me and we spent a quiet evening in The Meadow" Sarabi said.

Belee and Kia exchanged a glance.

"We love hearing your stories Nai Nai" Belee said.

Sarabi bent down and nuzzled Belee's cheek.

"I'm glad." She said.

Meanwhile Simba and Nala had met up on Pride Rock.

"Simba, I'm so excited to welcome Vitani's cub" Nala said.

Simba's expression softened.

"I'm glad to welcome another into the Circle of Life." He added.

"I expect we'll be taking care of Nita more once Vitani gives birth" Nala said.

Simba glanced behind him.

Nita was curled up in her nest.

"Kora and Vitani have told me that they want to relocate to another cave within Pride Rock once the cub is born, I'm sure Nita will spend some nights with Belee and Kia" he said.

Nala nodded.

Meanwhile, Kiara had met up with Vitani and Clea at The Meadow.

"Tani, I'm so proud of you" Clea said warmly.

Vitani's eyes softened as she gazed at her sisters.

"Thank you" she said.

Kiara pressed her muzzle against Vitani's cheek.

"I'm proud of you Tani, I'm glad we're sisters" she said.

"I love you both" Vitani said.

Kiara and Clea exchanged a glance.

"We love you Tani" Clea said.

Kiara stood up.

"Let's go home." She said.

They began to head back to Pride Rock.
