The Lion Guard: Ayla's Support

It was a beautiful day in the Pridelands.

The Lion Guard was patrolling Nyani Grove.

"How's Ameba?" Kion asked.

"She's fine." Fuli answered.

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.

"Thanks, Ono" Beshte answered.

Kion pressed his muzzle against Fuli's cheek.

"I need to go, Ayla wants to see me." Kion said.

Fuli nodded.

Kion turned, and bounded off.

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

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

"Hi Ayla." Kion said.

Ayla's expression softened.

"Hi, Kion." She said warmly.

Kion crawled into Ayla's paws, and nestled against her.

"How was your patrol?" Ayla asked.

"It was fine." Kion answered.

He pressed himself against Ayla's pelt.

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

"What is it?" Ayla asked.

"Do I still have your support?" Kion asked.

Ayla nodded.

"You always will." She answered.

"I love you, Ayla." Kion said.

"I love you too." Ayla said.

Meanwhile, Nita had met up with Rafiki at his tree.

She was helping him count juniper berries.

"I'm really glad Makini visited." Nita said.

Rafiki nodded.

"I am too. She is a precious child." He said.

"She's a good friend too." Nita added.

"Indeed she is, just like her mother." Rafiki said
