The Lion Guard: Protecting Kiazi

It was a peaceful day in the Pridelands.

The Lion Guard was patrolling Chakula Plains.

"How's Basi?" Fuli asked.

"He's fine." Beshte answered.

Kion glanced at Ono.

Ono nodded, and took to the sky.

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

“Janja’s Clan is attacking Kiazi.” Ono said.

Kion and Fuli exchanged a glance.

“She’s the same age as Mari.” Kion said.

“Where are they, Ono?” 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 her alone, Janja!” Kion called.

Janja cackled.

“She’s just a little hippopotamus.” Janja said.

Kion glanced at Fuli.

Fuli nodded, and moved forward.

She led Kiazi towards Beshte.

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

He braced himself, and performed the Roar.

It sent Janja’s Clan toppling backwards.

Kion watched them stumble towards the border.

He glanced at Kiazi.

“Are you okay?” Kion asked gently.

Kiazi nodded.

“Thanks, Lion Guard.” Kiazi said.

“You’re welcome.” Fuli said.

Beshte cleared his throat.

“If you’d like, I’ll take you home.” Beshte said.

“Okay.” Kiazi said.

Kion watched Beshte lead Kiazi towards Big Springs.

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

She was helping him count juniper berries.

“How is Mari?” Rafiki asked.

“She’s fine.” Nita answered.
