The Lion Guard: A Successful Visit

It was a peaceful day in the Pridelands.

Kion and Kiara were spending time together at the Meadow.

They were settled down underneath the baobab tree.

“How was the hunt?” Kion asked.

“It was fine.” Kiara said.

Kion pressed himself against Kiara’s pelt.

“Kia was amazing at Kupatana.” Kion said.

Kiara nodded.

“I’m very proud of her.” Kiara said.

“I knew she could do it.” Kion said.

Kiara rubbed a paw against Kion’s cheek.

“If you could do it, so could she.” Kiara said.

“I love you, Kiara.” Kion said.

Kiara’s expression softened.

“I love you too.” Kiara said.

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

“Sokwe’s coming today.” Kiara said.

Kion’s expression brightened.

“Can we go home?” He asked quickly.

Kiara nodded.

She stood up, and nudged Kion to his paws.

They began to head to Pride Rock.

When they arrived, they entered the den.

Simba, Nala, Kovu, and Sokwe were settled down amongst the moss.

Simba glanced up.

“I’m very glad you’re both back.” Simba said.

“We’re glad to be back, Daddy.” Kiara said.

Kion’s expression softened as he caught sight of Mari sleeping in Simba’s nest.

He and Kiara moved forward, and settled down beside Simba.

“Hi Sokwe.” Kion said eagerly.

Sokwe’s expression softened.

“I’m very glad to see you both.” Sokwe said warmly.

“We’re glad to see you too.” Kiara said.

“We wouldn’t miss this, Sokwe.” Kion said.

Simba cleared his throat.

“I, King Simba of the Pridelands herby renew the treaty of peace with King Sokwe of the Theluji Mountains.” He said.

Sokwe leaned forward, and grasped Simba’s paw.

“I agree to the renewal.” Sokwe said.

Kion leaned against Simba’s foreleg.

“I love you, Dad.” Kion said quietly.

Simba’s expression softened.

“I love you too.” Simba said.

He rubbed a paw against Kion’s cheek.

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

She was helping him count juniper berries.

“I really hope Makini and I can stay the night again soon.” Nita said.

Rafiki’s expression softened.

“You both are always welcome too.” Rafiki said.

“Thanks, Rafiki.” Nita said.

Rafiki pressed a palm against Nita’s cheek.

“I am very glad you both had fun.” Rafiki said.

“Makini’s really amazing.” Nita said.

“She certainly is, as are you.” Rafiki said warmly.

Nita leaned against Rafiki’s side.

“Maybe Mosi can join us next time.” Nita said.

“I shall speak with Dalila.” Rafiki said.

“I love you, Rafiki.” Nita said.

“I love you too, my darling.” Rafiki said.
