The Lion Guard: Kovu's Sympathy

It was a beautiful day in the Pridelands.

The Lion Guard was doing a patrol in Nyani Grove.

“What’s Mari doing today?” Fuli asked.

“She’s with Kovu and Zuri.” Kion said.

Kion 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." Beshte said.

Kion pressed his muzzle against Fuli's cheek.

"I love you." Kion said quietly.

Fuli's expression softened.

"I love you too." Fuli answered.

Meanwhile, Kovu had met up with Zuri and Marigold inside the den.

They were settled down amongst the moss.

“How was the patrol?” Zuri asked.

“It was fine.” Kovu said.

He watched Mari nestle against Zuri’s pelt.

“How are you feeling today?” Kovu asked.

Zuri sighed.

“I’m trying, Kovu.” Zuri said.

Kovu's expression softened.

“It’s okay, I understand.” Kovu said gently.

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

They were settled down underneath the baobab tree.

"How was the hunt?" Simba asked.

"It was fine." Nala answered.

She leaned over, and nuzzled Simba’s cheek.

“I love you, my darling.” Nala said.

“I love you too.” Simba said.

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

She was helping him count juniper berries.

“How was the summit?” Nita asked.

“It went very well.” Rafiki said.

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

“Uncle Kovu’s with Zuri today.” Nita said.

Rafiki nodded.
