The Lion Guard: A Deep Brotherhood

It was a peaceful day in the Pridelands.

The Lion Guard was doing a patrol in Nyani Grove.

“How's your family, Kion?" Beshte asked.

"Everyone's fine." 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.

Fuli’s expression softened.

"Thanks, Ono." Fuli said.

Kion cleared his throat.

“I have to go. Kovu wants to spend time with me.” Kion said.

Fuli nodded.

“Have a good time.” Fuli said.

Kion turned, and bounded off.

When he reached the Meadow, he saw Kovu settled down underneath the baobab tree.

Kion padded forward, and stretched to nuzzle Kovu’s cheek.

“Hi Kovu.” Kion said.

Kovu’s expression softened.

“Hi Kion.” Kovu said.

Kion crawled into Kovu’s paws, and nestled against him.

“Did you have a good patrol?” Kovu asked.

Kion nodded.

He pressed himself against Kovu’s pelt.

“I love you, Kovu.” Kion said.

Kovu rubbed a paw against Kion’s cheek.

“I love you too.” Kovu said warmly.

Meanwhile, Kenai and Kia had met up with Bemba inside the den.

They were settled down amongst the moss.

"How was the hunt?" Kenai asked.

"It was fine." Bemba answered.
