The end of Tiffu #3

Sister advice

Kion awakes from his dream, breathing hard. He realises he's in the den at home, safe and sound. Kion leaves the den and looks at the Pridelands. Kiara had awoken by the sound of her brother whimpering and talking in his sleep. It was faint but she thought he was saying "Fuli". Kiara watches her brother walk outside of the den. He looks sad. Kiara stands and walks to her brothers side.
"Bad dream?" She asks.
"Oh, Kiara...its just you." Says Kion trying to force a smile.
"Stop with the smiling and tell me what's eating you." Replies Kiara.
Kion sighs. He knew his sister would eventually find out about the dreams.
"I've been having bad dreams ever since me and Fuli got back from the Outlands. Every night when I fall asleep, I see her lying there motionless, her screams haunt me and a shadow follows me. I don't know how to make these dreams stop." Confesses Kion.
Kiara listens carefully and gives him a hug.
"Is there anything else that's bothering you?" She asks.
"Fuli and I had a fight yesterday. (Voice starts to break) I should've listened to her plan. If I did then all those animals may still be alive and because of that Fuli hates me and now I don't know where she is." Says Kion as he starts to cry.
Kiara hugs him even tighter. "It's ok Kion, Fuli will come around and the cliff incident wasn't your fault."
"Yes it is." Fights Kion.
"No it's not. Just talk to Fuli at the meeting. She has to come." Says Kiara.
Kion nods and smiles weakly. He didn't know what he would do without his sister.
"Thanks Kiara."
"You're welcome. Now go get yourself cleaned up before the meeting." Giggles Kiara.
Kion couldn't help but laugh a little.

A few hours later, the sun had risen and all the animals in the Pridelands had awoken. Kion waits for his friends at the lair. Ono and Beshte arrive but no sign of Bunga and Fuli. Beshte and Ono notice Kion looking worried.
"Don't worry Kion, Fuli will show up." Says Beshte.
"I hope so." He replies.
As if on que, Bunga runs in.
"ZUKA ZAMA! Hey guys!" Shouts Bunga.
Kion looks up to face his friend but instead he lays eyes on a cheetah walking in behind Bunga.
"Hi everyone." Fuli smiles.
"Hey Fuli" says Kion.
"Kion can we talk...alone?" Asks Fuli.
Kion nods and follows her out of the lair.
When they were out of earshot Ono speaks up. "I hope it goes well."
"Trust me, guys. They will sort things out." Replies Bunga.
"I hope you're right." Says Beshte.

With Kion and Fuli
"Hey Kion, I'm sorry I got mad at you. I guess I just thought my plan was better then yours." Says Fuli.
"No Fuli. I should be the one that's sorry. I shouldn't have casted your plan aside; it was stupid of me. Can you forgive me?" Asks Kion.
Fuli smiles wickedly and pounces on Kion.
"I might forgive you if you promise me to rethink the plans and...give me a kiss."
Kion laughs and reaches up to give her a kiss. They smile and they gaze into each others eyes.
"I promise." Says Kion.
Fuli lets Kion up and he nuzzles her.
"As much as I would love to talk about things, we have patrol." Says Fuli.
Kion gives her a lick on her cheek and he bows down. "Whatever you say second in command."
She giggles "Please don't do that in public."
Kion laughs and the two of them walk back into the lair.
"Time for patrol!" Orders Kion.
"So is everything ok with the two of you?" Asks Ono.
"Yeah, we talked it out. We're ok." Replies Fuli.
Kion clears his throat. "Till the Pridelands end!"
"Lion Guard defends!" Shouts the others.
