The Lion Guard: Defeating Mapigano

It was a peaceful day in the Pridelands.

The Lion Guard was patrolling Chakula Plains.

"How's Basi?" Kion 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.

“Mapigano is attacking Bracken.” Ono said.

Kion and Fuli exchanged a glance.

“Where are they?” Fuli asked.

“They’re at the Water Hole.” Ono answered.

“Let’s go, Lion Guard.” Kion said.

He led the way to the Water Hole.

When they arrived, Kion bounded forward.

“Get out of the Pridelands!” He called.

Mapigano chuckled.

“Why should I?” He asked.

Kion glanced at Fuli.

Fuli nodded, and moved forward.

She led Bracken towards Beshte.

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

He braced himself, and performed the Roar.

It sent Mapigano toppling backwards.

Kion watched him stumble towards the border.

He glanced at Bracken.

“Are you okay?” He asked.

Bracken nodded.

“Thanks, Lion Guard.” He said.

“You’re welcome.” Fuli said.

Beshte cleared his throat.

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

“Okay” Bracken said.

Beshte knelt down, and Fuli helped Bracken climb onto his back.

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.
