Yes... er what? I mean no...

A Lion Guard one shot fanfic inspired by a fanart picture called

"Get out" by albinoWolf58 on Deviantart (which is also the cover)

Kion, leader of the Lion Guard was patrolling the pridelands border.

His friends Beshte, Fuli, Bunga and Ono had been assigned different parts of the border to patrol.

.

The wide prideland planes lay before Kion with their usual lush greens and oranges.

His eyes swept across the endlessness of it all until he noticed a cub , downhill from him, sneaking through the tall grass.

He reasoned that it must've been one of his sisters friends.

Her fur was cream-colored and she was about the right size.

Though something about her seemed off.

.

Her fur was quite a bit fuzzier than any of Kiaras friends would ever let it become.

Then it dawned on him. He knew this cub and she wasn't from the pridelands. She belonged to the outlands.

Kion didn't remember her name but he had seen her during his encounter with the lioness Zira.

The cub in question had blue eyes,fuzzy fur and a very tomboyish way to her.

She was rather cheeky too if he remembered correctly.

Would she remember him?

Why was he thinking about that ? Kion quickly shook these thoughts of and darted run towards her.

.

"Hey, Outlander! Stay right where you are!" Demanded Kion.

To his surprise, the cub didn't run. She turned around sporting a mocking grin.

"Well if it isn't the big bad lion, who can huff and puff away all the problems in the pridelands. Kion , was it?" She asked

"You remember me and I remember you. You're one of Ziras lionesses. Tell me why you crossed the border and I will let you go." Said Kion with his usual authoritative voice.

"Or what?" Asked the cub.

"Or I will bring you to the King. He will then decide on what to do with you." Said Kion.

"So your daddy's gonna be judge and jury for me? What about your mommy, is she gonna read me my rights or something?" Said the Cub mockingly.

"The King and Queen have responsibilities. Them being my parents has nothing to do with it." Said Kion as he started to turn red.

Was she trying to get under his skin?

.

"Can't you just breathe me away like you did before? If it worked for half a pride it sure as hell will work for me." Said the cub.

"I don't use the roar of the elders like that. It serves specific purposes. You are neither outnumbering nor stronger than me... " Kion stopped for a second.

"What was your name again." He asked, realising that he still didn't know her name and that it would be rude to address her so impersonally.

"I think its bold of you to believe you're stronger than me. The name's Vitani by the way." Answered Vitani.

"That's a pretty name...er I mean... a pretty strange name." Kion hastily corrected himself.

Kion was not used to having freudian slips.

He always knew what he wanted to say and it was always in harmony with his thoughts.

What he had just said wasn't though.

.

"Did you just say my name is pretty?" Asked Vitani with a mix of genuine curiosity and sass.

She did feel flattered but would never say so in front of the Pridelander.

"No!I was saying that your name is strange. "Kion tried to downplay the situation

" Do you have a crush on me?" Asked Vitani, as her smug grin grew wider.

"What ?! No. I would never..." Kion started as his face became a darker shade of red.

"You would never have a crush on an outlander? Come on. If you're sister has a crush on my brother why shouldn't you have one on me?" Teased Vitani.

"Leave Kiara out of this or I swear I'll make sure your pretty face won't be as pretty anymore." Kion growled at Vitani.

The leader of the lion guard felt the burning sensation of embarressment flow through his body like fire.

Who did this cub think she is? A crush on her ? That was ridiculous. So reasoned Kion in his head.

.

"You think my face is pretty ?" Asked Vitany, still sporting that smug grin.

"Yes... er what? I mean no...I just shut up and leave already." Ordered Kion in a mix of hot rage and embarressment.

"Alright whatever you say, Romeo." Said Vitani with a chuckle as she started to trot back towards the outlands.

"My pretty face will be back in the outlands in no time." She mocked.

"It's too bad really since it will be separated from your pretty face." She quickly added and went into a sprint with a giggle.

"Wait, what?" Said Kion as all the anger and embarrassment made way for him feeling confused and oddly flattered.

He sat down and stared towards the outlands, trying to comprehend what had just happened.

"Vitani...that actually is a pretty name." Mumbled Kion quietly to himself.

The End
