The Lion Guard: A Great Bond

It was a beautiful day in the Pridelands.

The Lion Guard was patrolling Chakula Plains.

"How's Basi?" Bunga asked.

"He's fine." Beshte 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.

Kion cleared his throat.

“I have to go. Kiara wants to see me.” He said.

Fuli nodded.

“Have a good time.” She said.

Kion turned, and bounded off.

When he reached the Meadow, he saw Kiara settled down underneath the baobab tree.

Kion padded forward, and stretched to nuzzle Kiara’s cheek.

“Hi Kiara.” Kion said.

Kiara’s expression softened.

“Hi Kion.” Kiara said.

Kion crawled into Kiara’s paws, and nestled against her.

“How was the hunt?” Kion asked.

“It was fine.” Kiara answered.

She rubbed a paw against Kion’s cheek.

“Did you have a good patrol?” She asked.

Kion nodded.

He pressed himself against Kiara’s pelt.

“I love you, Kiara.” Kion said.

Kiara bent her head, and nuzzled Kion’s cheek.

“I love you too.” Kiara said.

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

She was helping him count juniper berries.

“How’s Makini?” Nita asked.

“She is fine.” Rafiki said.
