The Lion Guard: A Friend's Sympathy

It was a peaceful day in the Pridelands.

The Lion Guard was patrolling Ukuni Woods.

“What’s Mari doing today?” Fuli asked.

“She’s with Kiara and Zuri.” Kion answered.

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." Bunga said.

Meanwhile, Kiara had met up with Zuri and Marigold inside the den.

They were settled down amongst the moss.

“How was the hunt?” Zuri asked.

“It was fine.” Kiara said.

She watched Mari nestle against Zuri’s pelt.

“How are you feeling today?” Kiara asked gently.

Zuri sighed, and glanced down at her paws.

“I miss him so much.” Zuri said.

Kiara’s expression softened.

“I know, I miss him too.” Kiara said.

She leaned over, and nuzzled Zuri’s cheek.

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

She was helping him sort borage leaves.

“How’s Makini?” Nita asked.

“She is fine.” Rafiki said.
