The Lion Guard: Zazu's Faith

It was a beautiful day in the Pridelands.

The Lion Guard was patrolling Chakula Plains.

"What's Mari doing today?" Fuli asked.

"She's with Zazu and Nita." 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.

"Good job, Ono." Kion said.

Meanwhile, Zazu had met up with Nita and Marigold inside the den.

They were settled down amongst the moss.

"How is Rafiki?" Zazu asked.

"He's fine." Nita said.

She and Zazu watched Mari nestle against her.

"Did you join Papa's patrol today?" Nita asked.

Marigold nodded.

Zazu’s expression softened.

"She's doing very well." Zazu said proudly.

"Thanks, Zazu." Mari said.

Nita cleared her throat.

"I need to ask you something, Zazu." Nita said.

"What is it?" Zazu prompted.

"Do you still have faith in me?" Nita asked.

Zazu nodded.

"I always have, and I always will." He said.

"What about me?" Mari asked.

"Yes, you too." Zazu answered.

Nita leaned over, and nuzzled Zazu's beak.

"I love you." She said.

"I love both of you very much." Zazu 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 rubbed her muzzle against Simba's.

"I love you." Nala said.

Simba's expression softened.

"I love you too." He answered.
