Plot[]

(Back in the fields, the krills wake up after their nap from last night)

Will: Another day in the sun, it's already morning.
Bill: Morning already? Come on, i had a few hours to sleep more before our next hunt.
Will: We gotta wake up on the ride.
Bill: I'm not feeling it.
Will: Oh yes you are. It's the morning shine and you gotta shine with the flow.
Bill: There's no flow when you're out in the ice.
Will: We're in the wild. This is where all the warm animals are residing.
Bill: We came from the ice! Where is the ice where you really need it?
Will: We are never dead, Bill. Trust me, it will pass.
Bill: Pass, my tail!

(Ushari, the cobra snake is still spying on the two krills in the grass)

Ushari: Smell like breakfast and lunch to me. *continue to sneak*
Will: No matter where we came from, the first thing we do is take a bath.
Bill: How are we going to find a bath like a pool or pond?
Will: We got the river. It lines around with the water and feel free to splash by dear friend.
Bill: Uh, the school are fish are suppose to swim there. We better get going and find another place to cool down.
Will: Bill, look out!
Bill: Oh skin! *dodge with Will*

(Ushari show up to confront Bill and Will)

Bill: Holy krill, what is that?!
Ushari: Hello, breakfast and lunch. It is i, i lick through your delicious body of blood and water.
Will: Back off, eel predator! Go back to the water when you can zap those jellyfishes with your shocking lightning powers.
Ushari: I'm no eel. I'm a cobra snake!
Bill: A cobra snake? That's a thing.
Ushari: I work with Janja from the Outlands.
Will: Who's Janja and what's a outland?
Ushari: You don't know what that is. Now you feast my teeth with poison toxic! *jump*
Will: Run! *run with Bill*
Bill: Let's get outta here!
Ushari: *chase Bill and Will* Come back you walking sea bugs!
Will: I don't know what a cobra is, but we gotta move!
Bill: I miss the big swarm back at the ocean!
Ushari: *move around and try to bite the krills*
Will: Whoa!
Bill: Stranger danger. Do not move in caution!
Ushari: Ugh, i hate you guys.
Bill: You hate us at the first 30 seconds when we start the chase.
Will: Pick on somebody your own size.
Ushari: I'm not leaving without my breakfast and lunch! *try to eat Will*
Will: *jump as Ushari bump himself on a rock*
Ushari: Aaarrrgghhhh!!!! I can't take it.
Bill: *throw a sharp rock at Ushari*
Ushari: *scream in pain as he faint down*
Will: Take that predator!
Bill: Man, he's worse than a leopard seal.
Will: I bite a leopard seal's butt once and it tasted like fur seal's skin.
Bill: And now, we're leaving.
Will: Where are you going brother?
Bill: I'm looking for food to eat.
Will: But you can't go out of luck. We're on the food chain like being part of a alien's menu.
Bill: Call it a day. I hope i find something to eat like penguin or skua except for the feathers that taste bland and yucky. *see the jackals getting burst by the wind* Holy moly.
Will: I did not see that coming.
Bill: Meh, let's move on.
Will: I wonder what's going on in the watering hole?

(Back at the Hakuna Matata jungle, the penguins and meerkats see the gang return with Pumbaa holding Kion, injured as everyone seem concerned as some of worried)

Mumble: You're back.
Simba: Nothing much.
Terry: Why is Kion sleeping?
Simba: *feared* I hate to say this. He's hurt.
Everyone: *shocked*
Ma: Oh no. He can't be that hurt.
Uncle Max: Did the jackals scratch him?
Iron Joe: Told ya. You couldn't go this way. The world out there is full of danger, mists and predators like bad guys.
Timon: He's not feeling well. We need to find a nurse around here.
Lovelace: I can be a witch doctor if you want.
Timon: No. I'll take it from here. I knew a lady who works around the beach and can reheal power to a injured animal.
Simba: That's what i was trying to say.
Bunga: Are we going or what?
Gloria: We'll go with the group.
Noah: That's what we're talking about and is the beauty of it.
Miss Viola: You meant the spirit.
Noah: The spirit? Yeah, take it from here.
Esequiel: Do you guys have like a map or something that we can take a shortcut through?
Simba: Ah, don't be a Rafiki.
Esequiel: What? I'm not trying to cheat myself. I need a map or something to travel.
Timon: If the wise monkey was here, we'll hit you. You gotta learn the wisdom of going there.
Esequiel: Like what? Bring a penguin who can act like a genie to perform a series of tricks?
Timon: Look beyond what you see?
Esequiel: Look beyond what i see? I see your face and everyone faces.
Nestor: It means, look around without using the cheats.
Esequiel: Are you going to play a challenge on us?
Timon: No challenges. I'll follow, you lead the way on where you're suppose to go.
Simba: I'll go find it. Come on, everyone together. Stay as a group at all times!
Beshte: Just like a migration.
Ono: Follow along! *fly*
Ramón: Oh man.

(The gang walk through the path of the jungle as they try to look for a nurse-like fortune teller living out in the jungle area)

Mumble: Is it around here?
Simba: You are close. Here's a hint, the end of the jungle has sand.
Erik: Oh, i know what it is. It's the beach.
Simba: Yes. That's correct.
Rinaldo: Well thanks a lot for spoiling the surprise. I know what it is now.
Simba: It's suppose to be a guess. You know, like taking riddles.
Rinaldo: Not a big fan of those fads.
Fuli: Watch out for traps and muds while you walk.
Bunga: We'll be good.
Pumbaa: I hope that lion cub doesn't stop e from laying down on my trunks and nose.
Ono: We're getting closer.
Sven: It's just your tip of a quest!

(The gang explore the beach as we see a nice view of the ocean and big mountains on the jungle side)

Mumble: Whoa.
Gloria: This is a tropical island?
Timon: Why would you call it a tropical island if the jungle is connected with the land side of the Pride Lands? It's a world.
Pumbaa: Islands are just places surrounded by water in a circle.
Atticus: Does continents count like Antarctica?
Simba: Some do, some not.
Uncle Max: Man, i haven't been to the beach for a long period of time.
Nestor: Por favor, it's beautiful.
Carmen: Shining bright like a cup.
Mumble: Who would go to a beach like this?
Raul: From shore to shore, i love it.
Lovelace: The biggest love moment in life.
Simba: Right now, we need to focus on where we're finding. No more procrastinating on certain actions. We need to go find the nurse we're looking for.
Timon: This is the final step. Follow me and i'll show you.
Edwin: Uh huh, that's right.
Uncle Max: I'm going to be grazing in the grass for nothing.
Ramón: Try to keep up.

(The gang continue to walk in the jungle, searching for a tent around here)

Atticus: What does a tent look like again?
Mody: It has a cone with the sticks setting up.
Dacey: So it doesn't fall like a tower of rocks.
Atticus: I get you.
Ono: Use the keenest of sight. *use the keenest of sight to look at the tent* Hapana! I found it!
Fuli: Where? Where did you find it?
Ono: The tent! That's it! I hope i'm not wrong.
Timon: You are not wrong.
Ono: Yes! I am correct!
Mumble: Woo hoo! We found it together.
Seymour: It ain't hard to find the tent ourselves.
Bo: You pass through rocks, dangers, high top mountains and deadly traps!
Noah: I'm not losing it anymore.
Iron Joe: I got faith!
Simba: Let's go check on that nurse.
Timon: Shh, everyone slow down on walking, you know what you may be thinking.
Pumbaa: Safety travels first.
Mumble: I'll go check what's in there.
Simba: I'll go along too.
Mumble: As long it doesn't trip over with skits.

(The gang show up at the tent where a old meerkat is seen as a nurse-like fortune teller, taking a look at her fruits as her appearance depicts her with a turban-like hat and a coat made of leaves. She is also a little blind.)

Meerkat Nurse: Oh, hi there. How may i help you?
Timon: Hello miss. We have some friends from the other side of the Pride Lands.
Simba: Is it i, the king of the Pride Lands.
Meerkat Nurse: Are you the Lion King?
Simba: Yes. The name's Simba. We have some friends on our side that you would love to meet.
Nestor: Hello.
Pumbaa: Hi.
Sven: I am mighty as a puffin.
Meerkat Nurse: I got a lot of tricks to show you. But you are free to take any fruit drink you like. They don't go rotten as coconuts. Need some healing process? I'll make a quick appointment for you.
Bunga: Ooh, that's us. We need one for the lion cub.
Simba: That's my son Kion. He has been hurt with the Roar of the Elders since the jackals encounter the jungle.
Pumbaa: Here's your patient. *lay Kion down on the ground*
Meerkat Nurse: Ooh, a lion cub. He has potential to become prince, then king once the king step down from a den.
Ono: The lions take Pride Rock. They rule over the Pride Lands as the king of the savanna.
Meerkat Nurse: I thought we meerkats dig tunnels back there. Many people said that there was a brave hero who took his colony to a jungle like never seen before. It got bugs, trees, tropical settings, waterfalls and a variety of food. No predators.
Timon: That would be me. I found the home for my colony. Also, you're in the right place.
Meerkat Nurse: Oh, Timon! How much i remembered you.
Timon: Easy to be a hero than chopping down sticks on tunnels.
Hugh: One day, i'm going to be the greatest hero in Adelie-Land like that big chubby Lovelace.
Lovelace: Hey!
Hugh: I was making a joke.
Simba: How can you reheal Kion? Do you have some energy source like Rafiki when you have all the fruits to mix up and feed them in their throats?
Meerkat Nurse: Yes. The mandrill told me to use the fruits to mix and reheal them with power.
Beshte: So you know Rafiki.
Meerkat Nurse: Yes. He told me to make my own shop of health healing power. I'm making one for the injured cub. *use the fruits to mix the fruits up*
Timon: What does it taste?
Pumbaa: Timon, i don't think we can go tap a single liquid of fruit while she's cooking.
Timon: What does it look like she's doing? I'm going to try it.
Simba: Timon, let her do the job.
Timon: Fine. Once the adventure is over. I'm going to make my own fruit smoothie.
Lombardo: Heh, you think about making a smoothie stack.
Timon: It's just the future's rules of assembling.
Meerkat Nurse: I got the cure ready.
Simba: Good. Pour it to his mouth.
Meerkat Nurse: You get what you wished for. The cure goes in the body. *pour juice on Kion's mouth by swallowing it*
Fuli: Please come alive.
Erik: Don't go.
Timon: I can't watch if he pass.
Pumbaa: Is it working?
Carmen: Did it work?
Kion: *wake up* Where am i?
Simba: Kion!
Kion: I'm okay!
Bunga: Yay! You're alive!
Fuli: I knew you were going to leave us after the battle.
Timon: Oh boy. Welcome back to the world.
Mumble: I hope you're feeling okay.
Kion: I'm feeling better now.
Meerkat Nurse: Ha ha ha. I love to see you alive.
Lombardo: There it goes.
Kion: I never can get any better. Thanks, but who are you?
Meerkat Nurse: I'm a nurse working at a tent. I'm also a fortune teller. You have a bright future in the Pride Lands.
Kion: Jeez, when i grow up, i would love to explore new lands and find a mate there.
Bunga: You'll be king around that time.
Kion: No one can stop me or tell me what to do.
Mumble: Fins up.
Kion: Huh?
Simba: Paws up.
Ono: It's more like a thumbs up.
Kion: Thanks.
Uncle Max: Is that all the thanks you can get, Kion?
Kion: Yes. I agree on that.
Uncle Max: Ho ho ho. Since you are better, what are you going to do now?
Kion: We need to return to the Pride Lands. There may be more danger approaching on our way.
Simba: I need to go back to Pride Rock.
Timon: Don't worry Simba. We can come along.
Pumbaa: We'll stay at the falls.
Simba: I can always give you a job.
Timon: Hey, i thought you were going to give us a new rock home to stay at since the last one broke near Pride Rock.
Simba: You can come to Pride Rock anytime you like.
Timon: We always visit. Trust me, we're always here.
Noah: Oh well, we must return to the Pride Lands.
Simba: Nala must be waiting for me back there.
Mumble: We'll get there in few hours. Thanks for the help.
Meerkat Nurse: You are very welcome. Come back anytime you wish.
Mumble: We're on the go.
Simba: Let's move along.
Timon: Hakuna Matata.
Bunga: Zuka Zama!

(Back at the Outlands, the hyenas are training to prepare a future attack as the vultures are seen flying to guard and watch over the Outlands)

Janja: Come on! Show some courage!
Chungu: *hit Janja*
Cheezi: Ah! *bump on Ed*
Ed: Oof oof oof oof oof!
Shenzi: Come on, stop trying to be lazy.
Banzai: I'm gonna get you! *jump as he is slapped by Shenzi* Ow.
Shenzi: Ha! You got slapped.
Banzai: I hate training. I just wanna kill some animals for fun.
Shenzi: You ain't going to get another killing for a prey.
Janja: Do better on your fighting skills! We can prey on a zebra together before dark.

(The jackals crashed on the rock as they are confronted by hyenas)

Janja: You again. How the flying trip go?
Reirei: Janja, we're unable to beat the Lion Guard.
Goigoi: The animals were too strong, but they are no match to beat.
Janja: Wow, i never expect to see another failure of you guys in one day. Fail!
Shenzi: You look bad for yourselves.
Reirei: Easy there. I thought we were better than this.
Mzingo: You can't get the job right. That's why you fail.
Banzai: Since you didn't left some leftovers for us, you fail!
Ed: Ha ha ha.
Banzai: *hit Ed* Shut up Ed!
Dogo: Why do you guys have to be so negative.
Janja: Cause it's part of our job. We can be negative all we want depending on your mission to stop the animals. You failed!
Reirei: Don't kill us Janja.
Goigoi: C'mon man. Give us one more chance before i sleep for the day.
Janja: You disappoint me like every mission i gave you. You failed to drove everyone away on the Kupatana Celebration. That's why you always lose.
Reirei: I'm sorry Janja.
Janja: No sorry. I would like for you to meet someone on the float. He's very fierce and cocky.
Shenzi: Is it one of the bad crocodiles in Scar's reign?
Janja: No. He died a year ago. There's another i would love for them to show. And that crocodile is going to teach the Lion Guard and the flap birds, a lesson. *grin smile*
Mzingo: If you ask me, i'll follow you there.
Janja: Go right ahead. No rest stops after all.

(In a canyon, a float of crocodiles are seen swimming in the water as a elderly crocodile is seen swimming in the water as he encounter Kiburi in the float)

Kiburi: What are you looking at?
Pua: Hello Kiburi, just trying to find a place to rest.
Kiburi: You ain't resting on my float. You're in the wrong way.
Pua: I said i was going to pass through.
Kiburi: Where are you trying to head?
Pua: Don't repeat what you said when i'm moving.
Kiburi: Boys, do me a favor and get rid of this crocodile. He ain't allow here since he lost the mashindano.
Tamka: Hey there stranger.
Nduli: You came in the wrong place.
Pua: Back off. I didn't mean to hurt anyone.
Kiburi: Get him.
Pua: *fight Nduli and Tamka*
Tamka: Get off!
Nduli: Whoa! Cool down!
Pua: *bite off the crocodiles and throw them in the water*
Kiburi: *hit Pua*
Pua: *roar*
Kiburi: You're done. You're finished. You're no longer a leader in Makuu's float.
Pua: I was going to visit until you show up to mess up my visit schedule.
Kiburi: You look like a Outlander to me. See all the exiled animals who try to prey and hate on each other
Pua: No. The only thing that is going to hit on your back is Simba's pride.
Kiburi: Ha! You'll never learn.

(Janja's group and Reirei's group show up to see Kiburi confronting Pua at the pond)

Janja: Well look who's here. Everyone has been talking about you?
Kiburi: What do you want?
Reirei: Are you the most deadly crocodile in the Pride Lands.
Pua: Janja. *growls* Back off Kiburi, i'll kill him off.
Mzingo: *land down to protect his friends* No! You leave us alone my dear crocodile friend.
Pua: *bite the ground*
Mzingo: Yikes!
Kiburi: Stop playing stupid and i need to talk to them. *hit Pua*
Pua: You hit on me, i'll hit on you back. *hit Kiburi and leave*
Kiburi: Yo. Where are you going?
Pua: I'm going to talk to Makuu.
Kiburi: I'll be there when i get my revenge. This time, i'm going to be the leader of the float.
Janja: Say it again. I heard what you say.
Kiburi: I say, i'm going to be leader of the float.
Janja: The leader of the float. Ah, i see what you mean.
Shenzi: Like go around the waterfalls just to splash yourself?
Kiburi: No. You are nothing but strangers to me. You are dangerous for the Pride Lands.
Janja: Kiburi, all of the vultures have heard about you. I have a favor i would like to ask. Please go to the float to fight Makuu. Then, when you win the fight, make your secret plan to kill the Lion Guard and stop Simba from ruling over Pride Rock. You got it?
Kiburi: Yes. We have a contract to make.
Janja: Good. I'll be peeling my hair to the next mile of a single area.
Kiburi: I'll strike my way to stop Makuu.
Janja: You're on his float, right?
Kiburi: I am secretly planning a attack on Simba when Makuu got the chance to have a meeting with Simba. It's his kingdom.
Janja: Make sure you kill him for me so i can rule Pride Rock for Scar!
Shenzi: Scar. Please don't mention his name ever again.
Janja: What? He was the one that ruled Pride Rock for years.
Banzai: He betrayed us. Also, we were bumped out from that meerkat with the stinky warthog from out of nowhere.
Ed: Heh heh heh.
Kiburi: I got some planning to do. But alright, i'll go set up a fight with Makuu. *swim into the river*
Reirei: So that's what he's planning to do, right?
Janja: Yes. It's just getting started. We all have to wait and see how this works out.

(The background song "Africa" by Toto plays as the penguins leave the Hakuna Matata jungle with Simba leading the group as the meerkats watch over to say goodbye to the group)

Ma: I hope you had good time with us.
Simba: Ma, you got a great jungle out there that your son has discovered.
Timon: Thanks to the monkey who told me about the place since i left the colony.
Uncle Max: And i thought it was a bad idea to kick you out of the colony, sonny boy.
Timon: Uncle Max, you know i'm going to be safe with Simba's pride in Pride Rock.
Mumble: I can't wait to travel the world.
Sven: It's a whole world out there to go and hang out.
Gloria: It's going to take hours to get here.
Kion: Relax, it ain't that far.
Fuli: We'll pass by the gorge and through all the places the animals reside in.
Simba: Well, let's get moving.
Ma: Goodbye Timon.
Timon: Goodbye Ma. Goodbye everyone. Hope you come back after the party is over.
Pumbaa: Look like it's the two of us again.
Timon: At least, the whole group is waiting.
Nestor: Our man.
Timon: I love you guys.
Raul: And we will got it.

(While the group is walking, antelopes are seen walking around in a group as the zebras move around in a herd to travel to the watering hole)

Sven: Whoa. Look how well the animals move.
Ono: The antelopes and zebras are moving from side to side to travel to eat food. It's part of the circle of life.
Sven: Does it move around in a circle as the Earth move around?
Ono: It does. We respect the cycle of it.
Sven: Lovely world out here.
Ono: Awkward.

(Wildebeests are running together as Timon ride on Pumbaa to run with them)

Timon: This is crazy!
Pumbaa: We should have brought the Adelie Amigos with them.
Timon: They'll be too crazy about it.
Pumbaa: As loco, they'll just fall off in just a second.
Timon: I feel the air.
Pumbaa: It's like getting fresh air from the breeze.
Timon: That's a great exercise.

(Giraffes are seen eating leaves on the trees, hippos swimming in the pond for class as the frogs move from lily pad to lily pad. Erik, Bo and Atticus hang out at the fields where the butterflies are flying.)

Erik: What are those flying creatures?
Atticus: It feel strange to me.
Bo: They're colorful.
Erik: Can we touch them?
Atticus: I don't think we can touch them. It's not healthy for us to feel through their wings.
Bo: We gotta respect that Erik.
Erik: Okay Boadicea.

(Birds are flying in a flock in the sky as Bill and Will are still searching, watching the birds fly)

Will: Holy bird, look at that!
Bill: It's so amazing. It's like the whole world is flying.
Will: They're all birds. Like skuas.
Bill: Don't say the name. They're the worst birds in Antarctica.
Will: Sorry.
Bill: I'm going to freak out if someone mention leopard seal during the search.
Will: It's better best to ignore.
Bill: Eh.

(Snakes are moving in the grass as the colorful geckos are crawling in the trees to pick up fruits while the beetles move the rocks to make their own doors for their little caves. The rhinos move in a herd as Mumble and Simba's group move along as they are close to Pride Rock.)

Mumble: We're almost there.
Simba: It took three hours to get here. Man, that was quick.
Mumble: It didn't stop our feets.
Memphis: I'll be a lone penguin for a week.
Mumble: You'll like a lone rider Memphis.
Memphis: I was in a Heartbreak Hotel, before i mated your mother.
Norma Jean: This is why we're together.
Mumble: I love you guys.
Maurice: It's so big. The land!
Michelle: This is just like home if the ice is melted to water to become the grass.
Esequiel: That's science to you!
Kion: You all act like freaks in here.
Esequiel: We're too crazy about this science stuff.
Montay: It make me wanna blast in the clouds.
Kion: Ha.
Fuli: Very funny you two.
Simba: Well it is, Pride Rock.
Mumble: You're home at last.
Simba: There it is. I knew we weren't going to make it at first. But now were close to the place.
Mumble: Let's go buddy.
Simba: Hakuna Matata.
Timon: Ha! He said it. He said the like.
Pumbaa: Wow. He's the king.
Timon: That's my boy.

(The background song end as Simba and Mumble's gang return to Pride Rock to see Nala and Kiara with Zazu joining along)

Zazu: Welcome back you guys!
Simba: It's great to be home.
Kion: We all had a great sleepover together.
Nala: My boys. Welcome home.
Simba: It's good to know.
Kiara: I wouldn't be running back and forth to catch you guys up.
Mumble: Well, you got us.
Kiara: You birds are still here.
Gloria: We're still in the Pride Land.
Kion: They'll be hanging out here for a while.
Timon: It's like they took the whole day to hang out.
Pumbaa: It been one day since they were with us.
Timon: But we weren't there for them. We were chilling back at the jungle before they came.
Pumbaa: How do you know.
Simba: You guys seem to be curious.
Timon: Yeah. But me and Pumbaa are getting a bit hungry around here.
Simba: Well, how about some lunch?
Timon: Lunch would be great.
Mumble: You got us fish or something?
Nala: We got food from the den. You're going to love it.
Zazu: There is no need to complain.
Mumble: Yeah. That's the spot.
Lovelace: I can't wait to hit the spot like dancing in the disco.
Sven: Papa Oom Mow Mow.
Kion: Let's go grab some lunch.
Bunga: We all really deserve a break.
Beshte: Breaks are awesome.
Bunga: After all the hard work of protecting, we deserve a lunch break.
Beshte: It's easy to know.
Bunga: Whatever.
