The Lion Guard: A Magnificent Performance

It was a beautiful day in the Pridelands.

Kion and his family were heading to Mizimu Grove to attend a concert given by Matembo's Herd.

Kion and Kiara were walking together.

"I can't wait to see Matembo." Kion said.

Kiara nodded.

When they arrived at Mizimu Grove, they settled down on the ledge.

Matembo cleared her throat.

"We are pleased to have you here to take part in this tradition." She said.

Matembo turned to her herd, and raised her trunk.

They began to trumpet loudly.

Kion leaned over to Kiara.

"They're really good." He said.

Kiara nodded.

“Especially Mtoto.” She said warmly.

Simba leapt down, and cleared his throat.

"Well done, my friends." He said.

Matembo inclined her head.

"Thank you, King Simba." She said.

Kion leapt down, and padded towards Matembo.

"That was wonderful." Kion said.

Matembo leaned down, and pressed her cheek against his.

"I'm glad you enjoyed it." Matembo said.

"I love you, Matembo." Kion said.

Matembo's expression softened.

"I love you too" Matembo said.
