Everything the light

touches is part of our kingdom.

The Pride Lands.

Ruling it is a big

responsibility, Kiara.

And someday,

when you're Queen...

Heads up! Incoming!

Kion!

Oh! Sorry, Dad.

Me and Bunga were

playing Baobab Ball...

And Kion couldn't

handle the pass!

What? A giraffe

couldn't handle it.

You kicked it over my head!

Kion!

And you couldn't handle it!

Bunga...

Yeah? Try to handle this!

Boys!

Whoa!

Kion, I need to

talk to your sister.

She'll be tracking gazelles

with her friends today.

Because I'm training to be...

Queen of the Pride Lands.

Yeah, yeah.

I know all about it, Kiara.

Least I have

my life figured out.

What are you gonna grow

up to be, little brother?

Happy?

All right you two,

that's enough.

Kion, why don't you and Bunga

go play somewhere else?

Yeah! I know

the perfect place!

Hey, Kion!

You'll never get

the baobab fruit, no.

Ha! You got nowhere

to go, Bunga!

Says you!

Zuka Zama!

Catch me if you can, Kion!

Game on, Bunga!

Later, Dad.

Have fun tracking those gazelle, Kiara.

I gotta get Bunga!

I can't believe we're related.

Kion will grow

up someday. I hope.

It's a good day to have

some fun to run and play

Whoa oh yeah oh

Sun's so hot, it melts

my worries all away

Whoa oh yeah oh

I'm gonna take it easy,

Cheka, cheka, cheka!

Stop it! Bunga!

Got it! Whoa...

Aww. It rolled

into the Outlands.

Game over.

Says who? I'm not afraid

of the Outlands.

Neither am I!

It's just... My dad!

He says we shouldn't...

Oh! Puh-leeze!

Simba's a big ol' scaredy cat

when it comes to the Outlands.

You know what my

Uncles always say!

Hakuna matata.

Whoa! Huh?

Bunga?

You look a little stuck.

You kidding?

It's just a tree branch.

Uh...

Zuka Zama!

Now where did

that baobab fruit go?

Oh! 'Fraid there's no meat

left for you boys.

Janja, Janja!

A baobab fruit!

Let's eat it!

I'm starvelated!

What do you take

me for, a vegetarian?

I want something

nice and meaty for lunch!

Something...

Huh? Where'd it go...

What? What's so funny?

What are you laughing at?

Tell me!

Stuff it, fur brains! Look...

A honey badger.

Now that's my idea

of a delightful lunch!

Chungu! Cheezi!

Bring him to me!

Here we go!

Heyvi kabisa.

Bunga! Heads up!

Relax, Kion. Remember?

Hakuna...

Matata.

Get outta there, Bunga!

Okay, hyena. You wanna see what

this honey badger's made of?

I'll show you what I'm made of!

Hey! Lemme go so I can show that

other guy what I'm made of!

Hyenas!

Put Bunga down!

Pick on somebody your own size!

Kion! You want

the honey badger?

Come and get him!

Let him go!

You hyenas don't want

any trouble with my dad.

Ooh. Like how

you'd get into trouble

if you came into the Outlands?

Uh, Kion?

He's too afraid

to come down here.

Yeah! 'Fraidy cat!

'Fraidy cat!

'Fraidy cat! 'Fraidy cat!

All right, yeah.

Fun's over.

Janja needs his lunch.

Lunch?

No!

Let him...

See ya, hyena!

Wouldn't wanna be ya!

Heyvi kabisa!

What was that?

Zuka Zama! Kion, how'd

you roar like that?

I dunno, Bunga.

Wish I did, though.

Well however you did it,

it was un-bunga-lievable!

That was Kion's roar?

Yes, Nala, yes!

He is ready! It is time!

Eh, no, Rafiki. He can't possibly be ready.

He's still a cub.

Simba, Simba.

You heard the Roar!

I heard it. It's just...

It's a big responsibility.

I need more time to prepare him.

I think you've just

run out of time Simba.

You need to tell him.

But, Nala...

Listen to Rafiki, Simba.

Kion is ready.

It is time.

Time for what?

Dad? Rafiki? What's going on?

Son, we need to talk...

Oh no. Dad,

we already had that talk.

"Can you feel

the love tonight..."

I know all about

that mushy stuff!

I... Well...

It's not that, Kion.

No, no.

Most definitely not that.

We have heard

your Roar! Yes, yes!

Yeah. It was, uh,

kinda different today.

Different?

Different you say?

It is more than different.

It is the Roar of the Elders!

When you use it,

the great lions of the Pride Lands'

past roar with you.

What? You mean that's what

happened to my roar?

Yeah, lions in the sky!

I saw that!

The Roar of the Elders

is a great gift, Kion.

It will make you the fiercest

animal in the Pride Lands.

But...

But what?

No, no, Simba. It is you who must

tell Kion about the Lion Guard.

The Lion Guard?

What's that?

This way, Kion.

Uh, okay...

Oh, come on, Rafiki.

You already know what it is, don'cha?

Come on, tell me...

Huh?

It's a bunch of vines?

Rafiki?

Whoa!

Look at that!

How did I not know

this was here?

Dad, what is this place?

This is Lion Guard Lair.

It's the secret meeting place for

the members of the Lion Guard.

Ugh! Maybe they should think

about fixin' the place up.

Or at least do some dusting...

Hmmm... Yes...

Ah! That's more like it.

Can you show that trick to my

Uncle Timon and Uncle Pumbaa?

Dad, enough with all

the secrecy stuff!

You gotta tell me.

What is the Lion Guard?

The Lion Guard is the team

that protects the Pride Lands

and defends the Circle of Life.

According to tradition,

the Lion Guard is made of the Pride Lands'

fiercest, bravest, fastest,

strongest, and keenest of sight.

So what happened to them?

It looks like they haven't

been in here since... Forever!

I'm afraid it's a story

without a happy ending.

Whoa!

Whoa!

When your grandfather

Mufasa was about your age,

his younger brother, Scar,

was leader of the Lion Guard.

Scar also had

the gift of the Roar.

The Roar made Scar

feel powerful.

But that power

went to Scar's head.

He began to think that

he should be king,

instead of his

older brother Mufasa.

So Scar ordered the Lion Guard

to help him take down Mufasa.

When the Guard refused,

Scar was furious.

And then, Scar used the Roar

to destroy the Lion Guard.

What Scar didn't realize

was that by using

the Roar for evil,

he would lose the power

of the Roar completely.

Heyvi kabisa...

Yeah...

The Roar is

a very powerful gift.

It can be used for great good.

But it can also lead

to terrible evil.

Well, I'd never

be like Scar. Ever!

I'm glad to hear that, son.

Because starting today,

you are the leader

of the new Lion Guard.

I'm the what?

You heard Simba. Ha-ha!

The leader of the new Lion Guard!
