The Lion Guard: Back to One

Chapter 16

-One Month Later-

After finishing patrolling the Pridelands the Lion Guard was walking back to the Lair.

Everything was surprisingly normal, no running herds, no blocked rivers or paths it was just quiet.

Walking into the Lair they saw their still recovering member licking her paws.

"Hey Fuli we're back!" Bunga said loudly smiling.

Fuli looks up and gives them a greeting smile.

"Hey guys, back already?" Fuli said.

"Yeah, everything is the same." Beshte said as he gets in the pond.

Kion made it to Fuli and the two nuzzled.

After a month everything was getting better. Kion's wounds are completely heald and they were getting older, his mane was getting longer, eyes more red, more muscles, more taller, he was just handsome. Fuli was more gorgeous in Kion's eyes, she was more curvy, darker spots, sharp eyes, very gorgeous indeed and with her she was slowly getting back into working on running sort of..

"You're sure everything was normal on patrol?" Fuli asked Kion.

"I know, I'm confused too." Kion said feeling and knowing what she's thinking.

This whole month might've been peaceful but that's not right. The jackels been stopped, the vultures didn't cause trouble much, but what was not right was the hyenas. Ever since the fight against Kion and Janja they never came back.

"Maybe they're tired and finally gave up."

"Good."

Kion didn't even try to hide the hatred and anger in his voice. Fuli still knows he's still upset about what happened to her but she couldn't blame him, but she wanted him to let it go but she don't want to bring it up.

Pushing that aside she continues the conversation, "Or maybe they just out of ideas. There's no way they gave up."

"They need to, they never learn from all the other times we won."

"Kion, please."

"What? You know this is still a problem Fuli."

"I know but there could be many reasons why they stopped but that doesn't mean we know for sure. Maybe tomorrow have Ono fly above the Outlands and secretly check to see what they're up to."

Kion thinks.

"That's a good idea, better safe than sorry."

Kion looks up and sees the guard actually distracted. Ono and Beshte was watching Bunga dance around in the water.

"I'm going for a walk." Fuli said, getting up walking away.

"Okay/Be safe Fuli." The guys said watching her leave.

Kion just sits there watching Fuli leave the Lair. Usually he would go with her but decided this time is one she could want alone time.

-----------------------------------

Fuli doesn't know what to do, how can she deal with this?

Kion is getting more menacing with the hyenas by the minute.

"Maybe....maybe I can't.." She whispered to herself, "I lost him.."

"No."

Fuli gasped stopping before looking around when she heard that.

"Is-Is someone there?"

"Yes."

"Where are you?"
