The Lion Guard: Naanda's Faith

It was a peaceful day in the Pridelands.

The Lion Guard was patrolling Chakula Plains.

"How's Mari?" Fuli asked.

"She's fine." Kion said.

He glanced at Ono.

Ono nodded, and took to the sky.

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

"All clear."' Ono said.

"Thanks, Ono." Fuli said warmly.

Kion pressed his muzzle against Fuli's cheek.

"I need to go. Nada wants to see me." He said.

Fuli nodded.

"Have a good time." Fuli said.

Kion turned, and bounded off.

When he reached Pride Rock, he saw Naanda settled down outside the den.

He padded forward, and stretched to nuzzle Naanda's cheek.

"Hi Nada." Kion said.

Naanda's expression softened.

"Hi Kion." She said warmly.

Kion crawled into her paws, and nestled against her.

"How was your patrol?" Naanda asked.

"It was fine." Kion answered.

He pressed himself against Naanda's pelt.

"I need to ask you something." Kion said.

"What is it?" Naanda prompted.

"Do you still have faith in me?" Kion asked.

Naanda nodded.

"I always will, I love you very much." She said.

"I love you too." Kion purred.

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

They were settled down underneath the baobab tree.

"How is the training going?" Kenai asked.

"Gran thinks it won't be much longer." Kia said.

Bemba nodded.

"You and Belee are progressing quite wonderfully." Bemba said warmly.

"Thanks, Grandma." Kia answered.
