The Lion Guard: Visiting Midnight

It was a peaceful day in the Pridelands.

Nita and Rafiki were preparing to visit Midnight.

"I wish Mari could've come" Nita said.

"I know" Rafiki said gently.

He led Nita down the slope, and they exited his tree.

When they reached Midnight's Cave, Nita bounded forward.

"Hi Midnight" she said.

She pressed her muzzle against Midnight's cheek.

"Hello Nita" Midnight said warmly.

Rafiki came up beside Nita, and inclined his head.

"Come in" Midnight said.

She led them into her cave.

"How is darling Mari?" Midnight asked.

"She's fine." Nita answered.

She nuzzled Midnight's cheek affectionally.

"I love you" she said.

"I love you too" Midnight said.

Meanwhile, Simba and Nala had met up at the Meadow.

They were settled down underneath the baobab tree.

"How was the hunt?" Simba asked.

"It was fine" Nala answered.

She rubbed her muzzle against Simba's.

"I love you" she murmured.

"I love you too" Simba said.

He extended a paw, and Nala nestled closer to him.

"I'm giving the royal contribution at Kupatana" he said.

"What will you do?" Nala asked.

"I'm going to give a speech" Simba answered.

Nala's expression brightened.

"Sweetheart, that's wonderful" she said.

Meanwhile, Sarafina had ventured to Kora and Vitani's cave to spend time with Mari.

They were settled down amongst the moss.

"I love you Nona" Marigold said.

Sarafina rubbed a paw against Mari's cheek.

"I love you too" she said warmly.

"Were you at Grandpa and Nai Nai's coronation?" Mari asked.

Sarafina nodded.

She watched Mari grasp her paw.
