Chapter 1. Kion!

It all started in The Pridelands where a teen-age lion named Kion and his female friend Fuli the cheetah were walking around on patrol. They were both members of the Lion Guard, a group of animals who are sworn to protect The Pridelands as well as the circle of life.

"Hey Kion" said Fuli

"Yeah Fuli?"

"Do you wonder about that "We Are One" stuff that your dad told us about?"

"Sometimes Fuli, but I don't think about it too often."

She sighed and thought to herself "I wish he knew that I liked him". But she couldnt bring herself to tell him, what would he think...me a cheetah loving a lion. But maybe now was her chance to finally tell him"Kion...". Then they both saw the hyenas about 5 feet away from them.

"Well well well look who we have here boys." Said Janja

"Janja" said Kion with a growl

"What are you doing here? You know you're not allowed in The Pridelands" said Fuli

"Oh but we're just here to have some fun aren't we boys?" Janja said with a smirk. All 5 of the hyenas howled with approval and looked at the lion and cheetah with hatred.

"Fine we'll beat you any day of the week we aren't afraid right Fuli?"

"Right, but Janja you'll have to catch me first." she said with a smile

The fighting took about 15 minutes and there was scratches on all of the animals that were involved. Kion took the worst of it with a deep claw mark on his cheek from Janja.

"Ok, ok we surrender". said Janja with a smirk hinting that he was keeping something.

"...what are you up to Janja?" said Kion looking directly into his eyes.

"Heh look for yourself." Janja says while looking towards Pride Rock.

"Oh No!" said Kion and Fuli in unison as they run off towards Pride Rock after seeing Kion's father tending to 3 lionesses on the peak of it.

"Dad!" said Kion

"What happened...who..who would do this!?" asked Fuli

"This was Scar...his...his followers were here and...and they just attacked. How did they get here? The Lion Guard is supposed to defend The Pridelands. This...this happened because of you Kion!" Kion looked at his father with anger and sadness his father.

"Dad I-"

"NO KION! look at what you've caused...look at your mother."

"Kion... I'll be alright...I promise." Nala says as Kion looks at Rafiki trying to heal her cut on her lower abdomen.

"Mom! please! no!...i'm sorry"

Kion quietly crys as Fuli runs to his side to comfort him.

"KION! YOU HAVE CAUSED THIS...AND FOR THAT...YOU ARE HEAR BY EXILED!" exclaimed Simba

"Dad please!" Kion cried. But Simba would not listen and roared at his son. Kiara came out of the cave against her fathers command and tried to defend her brother.

"Daddy please you're speaking out of anger dont do this!" she exclaimed

"No Kiara go back in the den this does not concern you!"

"No Simba you are wrong this is madness do not do this!" exclaimed Fuli

"Be quiet Fuli! KION LEAVE NOW!"

But as Simba turned around to face his son he was already gone. Simba could see him on the boarder of The Pridelands with his face expressionless.

"Kion!" exclaimed Fuli and Kiara
