The Lion Guard: A Grandaunt's Affection

It was a peaceful day in the Pridelands.

The Lion Guard was patrolling Chakula Plains.

"What's Mari doing today?" Fuli asked.

"She's with Mom and Nita." 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.

"It's all clear." Ono said.

"Thanks, Ono." Beshte said.

Kion pressed his muzzle against Fuli's cheek.

"I love you, Fuli." Kion said.

Fuli's expression softened.

"I love you too." She answered.

Meanwhile, Nala had met up with Nita and Marigold inside the den.

They were settled down amongst the moss.

"How was the hunt, Nana?" Nita asked.

"It was fine." Nala answered.

She and Nita watched Mari nestle against her.

"I love you, Nana." Mari said.

Nala's expression softened.

"I love both of you very much." She said.

Nita pressed herself against Nala's pelt.

“I need to ask you something.” Nita said.

“You can ask me anything.” Nala said gently.

"Are you proud of me?" She asked.

Nala nodded.

"I'm proud of both of you." She answered.

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

They were settled down underneath the baobab tree.

"How was the hunt, Grandma?" Kenai asked.

"It was fine." Bemba answered.

"I caught a blackbird." Kia said.

Kenai purred.

"That's wonderful" he said.
