The Lion Guard: Shari's Love

It was a beautiful day in the Pridelands.

The Lion Guard was patrolling Ukuni Woods.

"How's Mari?" Fuli asked.

"She's fine." Kion answered.

He 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." Fuli said warmly.

Kion cleared his throat.

"I want to talk to Granny." He said.

Fuli's expression softened.

"Let's go to the Meadow." Fuli said.

She and Kion led the way to the Meadow.

When they arrived, they settled down underneath the baobab tree.

Kion glanced up.

"Granny, I want to talk to you!" He called.

He shivered as Shari's spirit embraced him.

"Darling, what is it?" Shari asked.

Kion felt Fuli move to stand beside him.

"I love you, I wish you could be here." Kion said.

Shari's expression softened.

"I love you too." She said warmly.

Kion watched Shari's spirit fade away.

He felt Fuli press her muzzle against his cheek.

"Are you okay?" Fuli asked.

Kion nodded.

"Do you want to visit Mari?" He asked.

"Of course." Fuli said warmly.

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

When they arrived, Mari rushed to greet them.

"Hi!" Marigold said excitingly.

Fuli's expression softned.

She knelt down, and nuzzled Mari's cheek.

"How are you?" She asked.

"I'm fine." Mari said.

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

Meanwhile, Simba and Nala had met up at Hapuna Valley.

They were settled down underneath a baobab tree.

"How was the hunt?" Simba asked.

"It was fine." Nala answered.

She leaned over, and nuzzled Simba's cheek.

"I love you."' Nala said.

"I love you too." Simba answered.
