The Lion Guard: Protecting Bupu

It was a beautiful day in the Pridelands.

The Lion Guard was patrolling Ndefu Grove.

"How's Maple?" Bunga asked.

"She's fine." Fuli answered.

Kion glanced at Ono.

Ono nodded, and took to the sky.

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

“Reirei’s Pack is attacking Bupu.” Ono said.

Kion and Fuli exchanged a glance.

“Where are they?” Fuli asked.

“They’re at the Water Hole.” Ono said.

“Let’s go, Lion Guard.” Kion said.

He led the way to the Water Hole.

When they arrived, Kion bounded forward.

“Leave him alone, Reirei!” He called.

Reirei chuckled.

“Did we make a mistake?” Reirei asked.

Kion glanced at Fuli.

Fuli nodded, and moved forward.

She led Bupu towards Beshte.

Kion unsheathed his claws, and sank them into the earth underneath him.

He braced himself, and performed the Roar.

It sent Reirei’s Pack toppling backwards.

Kion watched them stumble towards the border.

He glanced at Bupu.

“Are you okay?” Kion asked.

Bupu nodded.

“Thank you, Lion Guard.” Bupu said.

“You’re welcome.” 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.
