The Lion Guard: The Purest Wolf and the Fiercest Lion

Lions of the Outlands

It was another rare day of peace in the Pride Lands, where the the Lion Guard could just sit back and relax. For Alice, she was currently playing with Kion and Bunga, trying to get the Baobab fruit from the two. She was not going to let the boys win. She could use magic or her other abilities to win, but that wouldn't be playing fair.

"Haha! Now I've gotcha!" Laughed Bunga, jumping out of the bushes. He went to grab the fruit, but was intercepted by Kion. "Too late! Too slow!" Kion shouted, running past Bunga. Bunga got up and started running after Kion. "Oh yeah? Zuka zama!" He shouted. Bunga jumped and pinned Kion down with his weight to get the baobab fruit back. Alice flashed in and got in front of the fruit while the boys were occupied. "Thanks. You two are too kind." Alice said with a smirk. Then all three of them grabbed the fruit, tugging on it to get it out of the others grip. Kion finally tugged it away from the other two, but accidentally flung it back. Bunga ran to the fruit and caught it in the air.

"Nice going there, prince." Alice teased with a smirk, looking at Kion. "Well, you weren't much help either, princess." Kion shot back at her with a smirk of his own. "Winner winner! Zebra dinner!" Bunga cheered. "Hyena in the Pride Lands! Hyena in the Pride Lands!" A gazelle said, running past the three. "Hyena in the Pride Lands?" Bunga questioned, looking at the bush the gazelles ran from. "Alright, hyena! You picked the wrong day to come into the Pride Lands." He said raising his paws and bawling them.

Alice then caught a familiar scent in the air. 'That's hyena alright. But it smells like... Jasiri!!!' She thought to herself. Her tail started to wag in excitement as she waited for her hyena sister to show herself. Bunga continued to wait for the hyena to show themselves. "That's right, and I'm gonna-" Bunga said. Just then, Jasiri jumped in front of Bunga. "Hey! Bunga!" She greeted with a smile. "Waaaiiit. You're not from Janja's clan. You're the hyena who helped Kion and Alice while they were trapped in the Outlands." Bunga realized. Jasiri laughed at the memory. "Well, we helped each other out." She explained to the Honey Badger. "Siri!" Alice shouted, flashing in front of Jasiri. "Heya, Red. How have ya been?" Jasiri said, rubbing her head to her wolf sister's. "I've been doing great. How've you been doing, big sis?" Alice asked. "I've been doing okay." Jasiri replied.

"Jasiri!" Kion shouted, running to his hyena friend. "What are you doing in the Pride Lands?"

"Looking for you and Alice. I have a problem back home. And I need both your help." Jasiri answered with a worried expression. "Is it Janja and his hyenas?" Kion asked. Alice's hackles raised at the idea of Janja messing with her hyena family. She tried to keep a low growl from reaching her throat. If there was one thing that werewolves took seriously, it was protecting what was theirs. "It better not be. Or he'll be sorry he ever met me." Alice said with a barely contained snarl. "No. Actually, it's lions." Jasiri told them.

"Lions?" Bunga asked, confused. "In the Outlands?" Kion added, just as confused. "There are lions in the Outlands?" Alice asked. "That's right. They've taken over my family's watering hole, and they won't share it." Jasiri explains to her friends. Kion looked to Jasiri and said, "But there shouldn't be any lions in the Outlands." Bunga then asked, "Are you sure they're lions, Jasiri?" Both Jasiri and Alice snickered at the Honey Badger. "Bunga, how dare you." Alice said with an amused smile. "I know what lions look like, Bunga." Jasiri said to him. "Okay, well I'd be happy to talk to them, Jasiri. Maybe they're lost or something." Kion said. "Yeah. I'll be more than willing to 'talk' to anyone who messes with my family." Alice said with a menacing grin. "Asante, Kion. And Red, don't go crazy on them. I wouldn't want my little sister losing her title as the 'Purest in the Pride Lands' now, would I?" Jasiri said. "No promises." Alice replied in a singsong voice. Kion then looked to Bunga. "Bunga! Go back to the lair. Let the rest of the Guard know that Alice and I are going to the Outlands with Jasiri." He told Bunga.
