The Lion Guard: Zazu's Pride

It was a peaceful day in the Pridelands.

The Lion Guard was patrolling Hapuna Valley.

"'What's Mari doing today?" Fuli asked.

"She's with Nita and Zazu." Kion answered.

He 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 said warmly.

Kion pressed his muzzle against Fuli's cheek.

"I love you." He said.

Fuli's expression softened.

"I love you too." She purred.

Meanwhile, Zazu had met up with Nita and Marigold inside the den.

They were settled down amongst the moss.

"How is Rafiki, Nita?" Zazu asked.

"He's fine." Nita answered.

She and Zazu watched Mari nestle against her.

"Did you join Papa's patrol, Mari?" Nita asked.

Marigold nodded.

Zazu's expression softened.

"She's really quite good." He said warmly.

Nita leaned over, and nuzzled Zazu's beak.

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

"What is it?" Zazu prompted.

"Are you proud of me?" Nita asked.

Zazu nodded.

"I'm proud of all of you." He said.

"Even me?" Mari asked.

Zazu chuckled.

"Yes, even you." He answered.

"I love you, Zazu." Nita said.

"I love both of you very much." Zazu said.

Meanwhile, Kenai and Kia had met up with Bemba at the Meadow.

They were settled down underneath the baobab tree.

"How was the hunt?" Kenai asked.

"It was fine." Bemba answered.

"I caught a finch." Kia said.

"That's wonderful, Kia." Kenai said warmly.
