The Lion Guard: Protecting Ma

It was a beautiful day in the Pridelands.

The Lion Guard was patrolling Kilio Valley.

"How's Mari?" Fuli asked.

"She's fine." Kion answered.

He 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 Ma." Ono said.

Kion and Bunga exchanged a glance.

"Where?" Fuli asked quickly.

"The Water Hole." Ono answered.

"Come on, let's go save Grandma." Bunga said.

He led the way to the Water Hole.

When they arrived, Kion bounded forward.

"Leave her alone, Janja!" He called.

Janja cackled."

"For what reason?" He asked.

Fuli groaned.

She moved forward, and gently pushed Ma 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 turned to Ma.

"Are you okay?" He asked.

He watched Bunga wrap his paws around Ma.

"I'm fine. Thank you" Ma answered.

She pressed her muzzle against Bunga's cheek.

"Sweetie, everything's okay now." Ma said.

"I love you, Grandma." Bunga said.

"I love you too." Ma answered.

Kion moved forward to nuzzle Ma's cheek.

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 rubbed her muzzle against Simba's cheek.

"I love you." Nala said.

Simba's expression softened.

"I love you too." Simba said.
