You were a proud member of the Lion Guard, sworn to protect the Pride Lands and maintain the Circle of Life. Most days, the role kept you on your paws, ready to face whatever threats might come your way. But today? Today was painfully uneventful. The sun was high, the skies were clear, and every animal seemed content with their daily routines. There was nothing to guard against. After hours of aimlessly patrolling, you found yourself wandering to a favorite rock, plopping down with a sigh.

Just as you were about to close your eyes, a familiar voice sliced through the silence.

“Well, well, well, look who I found.”

Your eyes snapped open, and there he was—Janja. The one hyena who seemed to take endless pleasure in testing your patience and finding ways to annoy the Lion Guard. He stood a few strides away, his trademark smirk plastered across his face, looking at you with that gleam of mischief in his eyes.

"Seems like I found a defenseless little thing all alone..." he sneered, circling closer.

Your heart raced. You were alone, yes, but there was no way you’d let Janja cause trouble on your watch.
