It was a beautiful day in the Pridelands. On Pride Rock, Kiara and Kovu were settled down outside the den. 
"How was the hunt?" Kovu questioned.
"It was fine. Tani caught a klipspringer." Kiara told him.
"That's wonderful." Kovu replied.
Suddenly, Simba and Nala came up to the two of them, Kion following behind his parents.
"Kiara, your mother and I wanted to know if you and Kovu would watch Kion for us while we go on a walk. We won't be gone long." Simba said.
"Sure, Daddy. We'd love to watch him." Kiara said immediately.
"Thank you, sweetheart." Simba said.
Nala bent down to nuzzle Kion, her eyes shining with affection.
"We'll be back soon, Kion." she told him.
"Okay, Mama. I love you." Kion replied.
Simba's expression softened as Kion came over to him.
"We love you too, son." Simba said, ruffling Kion's head tuft affectionately.
"Have a good time." Kiara told her parents.
"Thank you, darling." Nala replied.
Kiara and Kovu watched as Simba and Nala headed down the pathway towards the grasslands.
Kion came over to them, crawling into Kovu's paws. Kovu bent his head to nuzzle Kion's cheek.
"What do you want to do?" Kovu asked.
"I want to play Baobab Ball in the Meadow with you." Kion answered.
"Okay, we can definitely do that." Kovu said.
"Let's go." Kiara said.
The three of them stood up, beginning to head towards the Meadow. When they arrived, Kion immediately rushed towards a baobab fruit, grasping it in his jaws, and dragging it over to Kovu. Kiara and Kovu exchanged a glance, their eyes shining with amusement. 
Kiara moved to settle down underneath the baobab tree, watching as Kovu and Kion began to kick the baobab fruit to each other. 
"Great job, Kion!" Kiara called encouragingly.
"Thanks, Kiara." Kion said, kicking the baobab fruit towards Kovu, who kicked it back towards him. Kion leapt to catch the fruit, missing it by a heartbeat. Laughing, Kion bounded towards Kovu, knocking him down from the force of his charge as he leapt on top of his brother. The two of them wrestled together, laughing excitedly. Kovu sat up, pulling Kion into his paws, and ruffling his head tuft affectionately.
"Good game, Kion." Kovu said fondly.
"Thanks, Kovu. I like spending with you and Kiara." Kion said.
"We like it too." Kovu replied.
"Do you want to go home now, Kion?" Kiara asked.
Kion nodded. 
"Can you carry me, Kovu?" he asked.
"Of course, Kion." Kovu agreed. He stood up, bending down to grasp Kion by his scruff. Kiara and Kovu began to head towards Pride Rock, Kion hanging from Kovu's mouth. 
When they arrived, they saw Vitani settled down outside the den.
"Tani!" Kion called out excitedly, his eyes lighting up as he caught sight of her. Kovu set him down, watching affectionately as Kion rushed towards Vitani. Vitani's expression softened as Kion came up to her. 
"Hi, sweetheart. Did you have a good day?" she asked.
"Yes. I played in the Meadow with Kovu and Kiara." Kion told her.
"That's wonderful, my darling." Vitani said fondly, ruffling Kion's head tuft affectionately.
She glanced up as Kiara and Kovu approached. 
"Are Simba and Nala back yet?" Kovu asked.
"No, they're not back yet. Are you watching Kion?" Vitani answered.
"Yes. Mom and Daddy asked us to watch him while they took a walk." Kiara explained, moving forward to nuzzle Vitani. Kovu came forward to greet his sister, nuzzling her affectionately.
"Kiara told me about your success on the hunt this morning. Congratulations, Tani." he said.
"Thanks, Kovu." Vitani answered. Kion had crawled into to her paws, nestling against her.
Kovu and Kiara settled down beside Vitani.
Suddenly, Simba and Nala approached the four of them.
"Hello, everyone. Did everything go well?" Simba asked.
Kiara nodded.
Kion's expression brightened as he caught sight of his parents.
"Dad! Mama!" he shouted, standing up and rushing towards them.
"Hi, Kion." Nala said warmly, bending her head to nuzzle Kion's cheek.
"Did you have fun today with your sister and Kovu?" Simba asked him, ruffling his head tuft.
"Yes. Kovu and I played Baobab Ball in the Meadow." Kion said.
"That does sound like fun." Vitani observed.
Simba's expression softened as he watched Kion lean his head against Nala's foreleg.
"Yes, it certainly does." Simba agreed.
Kiara stood up, moving forward to greet her parents.
"Did you have a good walk?" she asked, nuzzling Simba affectionately.
"Yes, we had a lovely walk." Nala told her.
