The Lion Guard: Protecting Cheka

It was a beautiful day in the Pridelands.

The Lion Guard was patrolling Ndefu Grove.

"How's Ma?" Fuli asked.

"She’s fine." Bunga answered.

Kion glanced at Ono.

Ono nodded, and took to the sky.

He returned a moment later, and settled down on Beshte's back.

“Reirei’s Pack is attacking Cheka.” Ono said.

Kion and Fuli exchanged a glance.

“Where are they?” Fuli asked.

“They’re at Lake Kizwia.” Ono answered.

“Let’s go, Lion Guard.” Kion said.

He led the way to the Lake Kizwia.

When they arrived, Kion bounded forward.

“Leave him alone, Reirei!” Kion called.

Reirei chuckled.

“Have we made a mistake?” Reirei asked.

Kion glanced at Fuli.

Fuli nodded, and moved forward.

She led Cheka towards Beshte.

Kion unsheathed his claws, and sank them into the earth underneath him.

He braced himself, and performed the Roar.

It sent Reirei’s Pack toppling backwards.

Kion watched them stumble towards the border.

He glanced at Cheka.

“Are you okay?” Kion asked.

Cheka nodded.

“Thanks, Lion Guard.” Cheka said.

“You’re welcome.” Fuli 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 leaned over, and nuzzled Simba’s cheek.

“I love you, Simba.” Nala said.

Simba’s expression softened.

“I love you too, my darling.” Simba said.

He extended a paw, and Nala nestled against him.

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

She was helping him count juniper berries.

“How’s Mosi?” Nita asked.

“He is fine.” Rafiki said.
