The Lion Guard: Protecting Pimbi

It was a peaceful day in the Pridelands.

The Lion Guard was patrolling Nyani Grove.

"How's Maple?" Beshte asked.

"She's fine." Fuli 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 Pimbi.” Ono said.

Kion and Fuli exchanged a glance.

“Where are they?” Fuli asked.

“They’re at the Water Hole.” Ono said.

“Let’s go, Lion Guard.” Kion said.

He led the way to the Water Hole.

When they arrived, Kion bounded forward.

“Leave him alone, Reirei!” He called.

Reirei chuckled.

“Did we make a mistake?” She asked.

Kion glanced at Fuli.

Fuli nodded, and moved forward.

She led Pimbi 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 topping backwards.

Kion watched them stumble towards the border.

He glanced at Pimbi.

“Are you okay?” Kion asked.

Pimbi nodded.

“Thanks, Lion Guard.” Pimbi said.

“You’re welcome.” Bunga said.

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

She was helping him count juniper berries.

“How is Mari?” Rafiki asked.

“She’s fine.” Nita answered.

She moved closer, and nestled against Rafiki’s side.

Rafiki pressed a palm against Nita’s cheek.

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

“I love you too.” Nita answered.
