The Lion Guard: A Father's Affection

It was a beautiful day in the Pridelands.

The Lion Guard was patrolling the Flood Plains.

"How's Mari?" Fuli asked.

"She's fine" Kion said.

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.

"Thanks Ono" Fuli said warmly.

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

They were settled underneath the baobab tree.

"I want to talk to Dad" Simba said.

Nala's expression softened.

"Dpi you want some privacy?" She asked.

Simba shook his head.

He glanced up,

"Dad, I want to talk to you" he said loudly.

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

"What's troubling you, Simba?" Mufasa asked gently.

Simba sighed.

"I miss you" he said.

Nala moved closer, and pressed herself against Simba's pelt.

"I miss you very much, and I am so proud of you" Mufasa said warmly.

Simba leaned his head against Nala's shoulder.

"I love you Dad" Simba said.

"I love you too" Mufasa answered.

Meanwhile, Belee and Denahi had met up inside the den.

Then were settled down amongst the moss.

"Did you join the hunt?" Denahi asked.

Belee shook her head.

She leaned over, and rubbed her muzzle against Denahi's cheek.

"I love you Nahi" she said.
