The Lion Guard: Confrontation with Sumu

It was a beautiful day in the Pridelands.

The Lion Guard was patrolling Ndefu Grove.

“How’s your family, Fuli?” Kion asked.

“Everyone’s fine.” Fuli said.

Kion glanced at Ono.

Ono nodded, and took to the sky.

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

“Sumu is attacking Leaf.” Ono said.

Kion and Fuli exchanged a glance.

“Where are they?” Fuli asked.

“They’re at Lake Kizwia.” Ono answered.

“Let’s go, Lion Guard.” Kion said.

He led the way to Lake Kizwia.

When they arrived, Kion bounded forward.

“Leave her alone, Sumu!” He called.

Sumu chuckled.

“Hello, Lion Guard.” Sumu said.

Kion glanced at Fuli.

Fuli nodded, and moved forward.

She led Leaf towards Beshte.

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

He braced himself, and performed the Roar.

It sent Sumu toppling backwards.

Kion watched him walk towards the border.

He glanced at Leaf.

“Are you okay?” He asked.

Leaf nodded.

“Thanks, Lion Guard.” Leaf said.

“You’re welcome.” Bunga said.

Beshte cleared his throat.

“If you’d like, I’ll take you home.” Beshte said.

Leaf nodded.

“Okay, Beshte.” She said.

Beshte knelt down, and Fuli helped Leaf climb onto his back.

Kion watched them walk towards Hapuna Valley.

Kion glanced at Fuli.

“Do you want to visit Mari?” He asked.

Fuli nodded.

They bade goodbye to their friends, and headed towards Pride Rock.

When they arrived, Mari rushed to greet them.

“Hi!” Marigold said brightly.

Fuli’s expression softened.

She knelt down, and nuzzled Mari’s cheek.

“Hi Mari.” Fuli said.

Kion moved forward, and knelt to nuzzle Mari’s cheek.

“Are you having a good day?” He asked.

Marigold nodded.
