Out in the African plains, Kion was with Zira in trying to help her reform and atone to her new life. Kiara, Kovu, and Vitani were with them too to make sure everything goes well and make sure he wouldn't get hurt in case this is all a charade to try and get close to Kion and kill him at the proper time, and Kiara has a tendency to worry about her little brother at times, even though he is the leader of the new Lion Guard. Still, that's just being a big sister looking our for her little brother, or her only brother in the family. After all, Kiara was going to be the queen of the Pride Lands someday, and she should be a very caring and compassionate queen like her grandmother Sarabi when she was alive int his mortal plain.

They were all looking around to show Zira the importance of other animals and how greatly they contribute to the circle of life. The first stop was meeting Kibango, the serval that Kion and his friends have saved before from falling to his death near a gorge. He was just eating a jerboa that he had caught and then killed with his sharp teeth

He easily gulped it down with one bite down his throat. Kibango heard a voiced said to him: "Hello, Kibango." said Kion. The serval knew that voice all too well and he turned around to see Kion, Kiara, Kovu, Vitani, and... Zira? As soon as he saw that lioness, he screamed and hid under a rock. "Uhh, Kibango?" said the cub in a confused voice. "It's just me, Kion." he slowly opened the rock and saw the shaky Kibango cowering under the rock like a scared house cat.

"Tell me i'm dreaming." said the serval. His eyes were as hard as jade stones. "Tell ne this is a different lioness and not Zira at all!"

"Kibango, it's okay." Kion reassured. "There's nothing to be afraid of. Come on out."

"But, Zira, It's really her, isn't it?"

"Yes, but it's okay. She lost her memory and there's nothing to be afraid of. I swear."

The poor serval was still scared silly, but he slowly popped his head out of the rock and looked at the other three lions. "Come on, Kibango." said Kiara. "You can trust us."

Kibango let out a breath and slowly came out of the rock, but he still had a very uneasy feeling about Zira. "Are you Zira?" he asked the scrawny lioness

"Yes. That is who I am." she replied boldly.

"Kion, can I speak with you for a second, please?"

The small cub let out a small sigh, and he replied: "Sure. Keep an eye on her, guys, I'll be back in a moment."

"You got it." said Kovu. "She's not going anywhere."

Kibango then said to him: "Do you know who that is?"

"Yeah, but listen to me; Zira hit her head and she lost her memories." Kion quietly explained to his serval friends "She doesn't remember that she is Scar's most loyal follower. If she was going to kill us, we wouldn't be here right now."

The serval tried saying something to defend his belief that Zira was still despicably evil, but he looked over to where she was standing with her two children. "Okay," he said. "Fair point. But, what if this is a charade to kill us while we are not looking at her." then he looked at the lioness cautiously again with his eyes narrowed like a pair of twigs or sticks, then looked back at the young prince. "This could be a trick, an obvious trick."

"Look, I think she has actually changed and suffered amnesia." Kion urged. "This could be a chance for her to change and reform and make her a better lioness and be with her kids. A lion that is no longer power-hungry in trying to kill my dad in revenge for what happened to Scar."

Like Simba and Zazu, Kibango was certainly feeling unsure and skeptical about this little plan. He tried to protest, but Kion was a very honest young cub, and he always knew what he was doing in the Pride Lands. "Well, I guess you're right." He admitted. "But please, just be careful with her in case she betrays you."

"Don't worry. I can take care of myself. Besides, Kiara, Kovu, and Vitani are here to help me in case something does happen like if she betrays me."

"Good. Just be careful with her." Said the serval cautiously. "But, it doesn't mean I can trust her right now."

"That's fine, but please help me out here. I'm asking you as a friend."

"Oh, well, maybe I can help you with trying to change Zira."

Kion smiled gratefully. "Thanks. Now, come over and meet Zira."

"Well... alright, but if she tries anything funny, I will claw all other her face." Bith the lion cub and serval went up to Zira, trying to look as professional as possible.

"Zira, this is Kibango, one if my friends in the Pride Lands."

"A pleasure, Kinango. I'm certain that Kion gold you who I am."

"Right, well it is a pleasure to Mary you, Zira."

"Look, I can assure you what horrible things I have done in the past, I am forgiven for my sins, and I can admit, if there was something I could take back and never have done in tbr first place, I would certainly do it. I can assure you that I wish to atone for all whatever I have done in the past."

The young serval looked a little uneasy looking at her in the eyes. Was she telling the truth? Or was this a shadow play? Deep down, the serval couldn't tell for sure but he just played along with this. "A pleasure. Well I'm glad that you are ready to atone for what you did all those years ago."

"Our mother wants to know more about the Circle of Life." Said Kovu. "Maybe you can help her with this

"Hmm.. maybe I can, Kovu. So Zira, the circle of life is a very important way of life and existence." The serval was explaining to Zira about how animals should eat and what they should eat to keep everything in balance to keep the circle from breaking into disarray.

By the time he was done, Zira didn't say a word in reply and she was certainly intrigued by these words. Kibango was no Mufasa and Sarabi, but he did the best he could to explain to Zira how life worked in this plain.

"You should always respect the Circle no matter what happens." said Vitani. "Treat animals the way you want them to treat you."

"Look at how the other animals live their lives and survive out here in the Pride Lands." Kiata added

Zira looked over at the horizons and saw a small flock of Egyptian geese flying past her to the right over a few isolated trees. She noticed some kind of dark biome beyond the Pride Lands. This obviously marked the Outlands where ironically, Zira had lived during her exile.

"What about that shadowy place over there?'

"That's... beyond our borders." Kovu replied in a sheepish way and trying to cover up the place where she and her children lived in exile. "That's the OutOutla, the exact opposite of what the Pride Lands are like. Dry, barren, hot, not a lot of food or water."

"You must never go there Zira." Said Kiara.

"Yeah, unless you want to get in a fight with a family of scummy hyenas and jackals that will steal your food." Vitani added. "Trust me, you always want to stay away from the Outlands. We're all better off without the Outlands. I know, because I have been there before."

"Well, Vitani, I can certainly take your word for it." Zira remarked. "I'm sure Nuka would be happy for you to be careful and cautious."

Their words stuck Kovu and Vitani like a fresh cut across their hearts and they felt like tearing up and crying just thinking about Poor Nuka. They both just wished they had their big brother back, but they knew they could do nothing to revive him from the dead.

Instead, Kovu replied: "I'm betting he will, mother."

Both he and Vitani were trying so hard to not let their tears escape from their eyes, for they didn't want to show pain or bad emotions. Still, Kion cleared his throat and he said: "why don't we go over and tall with the Wild dogs. I'm sure they will like to meet you."

Zira obviously never met the new wild dogs led BY Akilah before and he thought that there would he no trouble between these two once they meet face to face and it might be easier than most of the other animals in the Pride Lands to help her atone.

"I think that's best." Said Kiara. "Well, we will see you soon, Kibango. Thank you for helping out Zirs here."

"No problem, you're majesty."

"We told you." Said Kiara. "You don't have to be so formal to me and Kovu. We're not the new queen or king yet."

"Right. My apologies, Kiara. Good luck." The small group of lions walked down the grasslands in the Pride Lands and deep down, maybe this could be a good idea. Zira didn't lay one harmful claw at him or one canine teeth penetrate his soft skin. Suddenly, he found a bee eater that was perching on a small log and when it was flying away, Kibango jumped a tremendous height and hit the bird with his right paw.

Servals were excellent jumpers and it was one of their greatest attributes to hunting and catching their prey as soon as the bird was out cold, this gave Kibango the chance to bite on it's throat and suffocate it until it could no longer breath and he got himself another dish for him to eat.

"Nothing beats having a bee eater in my stomach." He said to himself proudly. He then let out a small belch, looming happy that he had got himself another piece of food.
