The Lion Guard: A Grandmother's Fondness

It was a beautiful day in the Pridelands.

The Lion Guard was patrolling Kilio Valley.

"What's Mari doing today?" Fuli asked.

"She's with Nai Nai and Nita." Kion said.

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." Kion said.

He pressed his muzzle against Fuli's cheek.

"I love you." Kion said.

"I love you too." Fuli answered.

Meanwhile, Sarabi had met up with Nita and Marigold inside the den.

They were settled down amongst the moss.

"How was the hunt, Nai Nai?" Nita asked.

"It was fine." Sarabi answered.

She and Nita watched Mari nestle against her.

"I love you, Nai Nai." Mari said.

Sarabi's expression softened.

"I love both of you very much" Sarabi said.

Nita pressed herself against Sarabi's pelt.

"Belee and Kia passed the assessment." She said.

"I know." Sarabi answered.

“I’m really proud of them.” Nita said.

Sarabi nodded.

“We all are.” She said warmly.

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.

She leaned over, and nuzzled Simba’s cheek.
