The Lion Guard: Protecting Karibu

It was a peaceful day in the Pridelands.

Kion and his friends were patrolling Ukuni Woods

“How are Timon and Pumbaa?” Fuli 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 Karibu.” He said.

Kion and Fuli exchanged a glance.

“Where are they?” Fuli asked.

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

When they arrived, Kion bounded forward.

“Leave him alone, Janja!” He called.

Janja cackled.

“She’s just one mandrill.” Janja said.

Kion glanced at Fuli.

Fuli nodded, and moved forward.

She led Karibu 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 Karibu.

“Are you okay?” He asked.

Karibu nodded.

“Thanks, Lion Guard.” She said.

“You’re welcome.” Fuli said.

Karibu turned, and bounded off.

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.
