The Lion Guard: A Friend's Pride

It was a peaceful day in the Pridelands.

The Lion Guard was patrolling Nyani Grove.

"How's your family, Kion?" Ono 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.

"Thanks, Ono." Bunga said.

Kion cleared his throat.

"I have to go. Tiifu wants to see me." He said.

Fuli nodded.

"Have a good time." She said.

Kion turned, and bounded off.

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

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

"Hi Tiifu." Kion said.

Tiifu's expression softened.

"Hi Kion." Tiifu said.

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

"How was the hunt?" He asked.

"It was fine." Tiifu answered.

She rubbed a paw against Kion's cheek.

"Did you have good patrol?" She asked.

Kion nodded.

"I need to ask you something" Kion said.

"What is it?" Tiifu prompted.

Kion pressed himself against her pelt.

"Are you proud of me?" Kion asked.

Tiifu nodded.

"I always have been." She said warmly.

"I love you" Kion said.

"I love you too"' Tiifu answered.

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.
