The Lion Guard: Protecting Belee

It was a beautiful day in the Pridelands.

The Lion Guard was patrolling Hapuna Valley.

"How's Basi?" Kion 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.

"Reirei's Pack is attacking Belee." Ono said.

Kion and Fuli exchanged a glance.

"Where are they?" Fuli asked.

"They're at the Water Hole." Ono answered.

"Come on, Lion Guard." Kion said.

He led the way to the Water Hole.

When they arrived, Kion bounded forward.

"Leave her alone, Reirei!" Kion called.

Reirei chuckled.

"Did we make a mistake?" She asked.

Bunga groaned.

Kion glanced at Fuli.

Fuli nodded, and moved forward.

She led Belee towards Beshte.

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

He braced himself, and performed the Roar.

It sent Reirei's Pack toppling backwards.

Kion watched them stumble towards the border.

He glanced at Belee.

Belee was nestled against Fuli's side.

"Are you okay, Belee?" Kion asked.

Belee nodded.

"Thanks, Lion Guard." She said.

"You're welcome." Kion said.

He rubbed a paw against Belee’s cheek.

Fuli leaned down, and nuzzled Belee's cheek.

"Do you want us to take you home?" She asked.

Belee nodded.

Kion and Fuli bade goodbye to their friends, and led Belee to Pride Rock.

When they arrived, Mari rushed to greet them.

"Hi!" Mari said.

Kion and Fuli exchanged a glance.

"I'll stay with Mari." Fuli said.

Kion nodded.

Fuli moved forward, and knelt to nuzzle Mari.

"How are you?" She asked.

"I'm fine." Marigold answered.

She glanced at Belee.

“Are you okay?” Mari asked.

Belee nodded.

“I’m fine, Mari.” She said.

Kion curled his tail around Belee's shoulders, and led her into the den.

They settled down amongst the moss.

“I love you, Kion.” Belee said.

“I love you too.” Kion said.

Meanwhile, Simba and Nala had met up at the Meadow.

They were settled down amongst the moss.

"How was the hunt?" Simba asked.

"It was fine." Nala answered.

She leaned over, and nuzzled Simba's cheek.
