The Lion Guard: Mohatu's Love

It was a peaceful day in the Pridelands.

The Lion Guard was patrolling Ndefu Grove.

"How's your family, Kion?" Beshte asked.

"Everyone's fine." Kion answered.

He watched Bunga climb onto Beshte's back.

Kion glanced at Ono.

Ono nodded, and took to the sky.

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

"It's all clear." Ono said.

"Great job, Ono." Kion said.

Meanwhile, Simba and Nala had met up at the Meadow.

They were settled down underneath the baobab tree.

"How was the hunt?" Simba asked.

"It was fine." Nala answered.

She watched Simba sigh, and glance up.

"What's the matter?" Nala asked gently.

"I want to talk to Grandfather." Simba said.

Nala's expression softened.

"Go ahead" Nala said.

Simba cleared his throat.

"Grandfather, I want to talk to you!" He called.

He and Nala shivered as Mohatu's spirit embraced them.

"What's troubling you?" Mohatu asked gently.

Simba felt Nala press herself against his side.

"I love you. I hope you're proud of me." He said.

Mohatu's expression softened.

"I love you. I am proud of you." Mohatu said.

Simba watched Mohatu's spirit fade away.

He felt Nala rub her muzzle against his cheek.

"Are you okay?" Nala asked.

Simba nodded.

"I love you." Simba said.

"I love you too." Nala answered.

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

She was helping him count borage leaves.

"I love you, Rafiki." Nita said.

Rafiki's expression softened.

"I love you too" Rafiki answered.
