The Lion Guard: Rescuing A Friend

It was a peaceful day in the Pridelands.

The Lion Guard was patrolling Urembo Meadows.

“How are Timon and Pumbaa?” Beshte asked.

“They’re fine.” Bunga answered.

Kion glanced at Ono.

Ono nodded, and took to the sky.

He returned a moment later, and settled down on Beshte's back.

“Janja’s Clan is attacking Leaf.” Ono said.

Kion and Fuli exchanged a glance.

“Where are they?” Fuli asked.

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

“Let’s go, Lion Guard.” Kion said.

He led the way to the Water Hole.

When they arrived, Kion bounded forward.

“Leave her alone, Janja!” Kion called.

Janja cackled.

“Why should we?” Janja asked.

Kion glanced at Fuli.

Fuli nodded, and moved forward.

She led Leaf towards Beshte.

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

He braced himself, and performed the Roar.

It sent Janja’s Clan toppling backwards.

Kion watched them stumble towards the border.

He glanced at Leaf.

“Are you okay, Leaf?” Kion asked.

Leaf nodded.

“Thanks, Lion Guard.” Leaf said.

“You’re welcome.” Ono said.

Beshte cleared his throat.

“I’ll take you home, Leaf.” Beshte said.

“Okay, Beshte” Leaf said.

Beshte knelt down, and Fuli helped Leaf climb onto his back.

Meanwhile, Kenai and Kia had met up with Bemba at the Meadow.

They were settled down underneath the baobab tree.

"How was the hunt?" Kenai asked.

"It was fine." Bemba answered.

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

She was helping him sort borage leaves.

“How is Mari?” Rafiki asked.

“She’s fine.” Nita answered.
